    I really did buy 5 of them! They are pretty damn nice for $5.75 each after shipping. Heavy weight, pre-shrunk cotton! :D

    I have no idea what the insignia's on some of them mean; but those that do will think I do! And after all, that is all that REALLY matters! ;)

    I have friends that work for a federal agency and they recommend Winchester ranger .380. Another agency recommends Speer gold dot. I will carry either one as soon as I can verify my 42 will eat it reliably.

    If it performs and at a lower cost, it a win-win! Would still like to see the data on the DPX though.

    Sounds like real life :(


    I like the internet stories better. like about how the serial rapist stops in his tracks just from the sight of a .45, or how the first round caused such catastrophic damage that they had to use dental records etc. ooh, and ones with the term "knockdown power" . Those are always fun.

    I love the new internet folk lore. I wish I had enough time to compile some of it into a book.

    5.11 shirts are the best for when liberal inlaws visit.

    All joking aside, I wish the FBI would give a report on the calibers .38 and .380. Snubbie revolvers aren't dead yet and with the recent surge of .380 pistols a comprehensive report on the performance of those calibers would be very informative.

    Its code for "DERP-DERP". :rofl:

    At that price, I need to look into them. Even with an insignia on them.

    I can't explain it! I was wearing one Sunday during my normal 24/7 CC and everywhere I went I felt like the people around me weren't worthy of my presence. So yes! By all means; treat yourself!

    Not to keep this on topic, but... So I'm getting away from .45 and going to 9mm. How many of you carry 115? Just thinking since I shoot that with cheap FMJ I may opt to carry that too with JHP's. I'm still shooting different stuff to see how it all acts.

    I hear the 124+p and 147 Speer Gold Dots work really well.

    I've been carrying 124 Ranger lately. Haven't really seen a difference in POI with that or 115 FMJ. Just been thinking I may try some 115 JHP to see how they do.

    Just hang in there! Once we all get virtual reality vision ware and headsets this will all be a game; like Tron! :bravo:

    We'll never have to leave! We'll live in here!

    How do you know we aren't already there and this is just a game that has gotten so complicated you can't tell if you are winning or losing?

    The GLOCK owners are also known for their loyalty to a platform.

    9mm Luger, double stack, 1911's are the wave of the future for serious internet operators. :)

    My wife wants a Kimber in 9mm. I have no objection since I already know what the article stated. We just have to test her carry ammo in that gun.
