Re: i wonder what the homeowner had...
I hope some day that the law will put homeowners rights before criminals. These pukes are just going to go on and harm someone else. Like coyotes attacking your stock, sometimes they have to be put down before they cause more damage. ( I like coyotes a hell of a lot better than street vermin)

Re: u,s, Army's new handgun
As the worlds policemen, we are going to see the handgun used more and more by our military. More and more of the fight is going to be in the cities and public places of the world. A handgun could mean our troops can be armed at all times. Just a thought.

Re: Reloading The 25 Automatic Colt
I sometimes carry my old Beretta 950 in 24 and my brother in law picked up one of these fine old Colts in 25 last year. I'm amazed how good the little bugger shoots, I know the 25 isn;t much, but sometimes it;s on you when you wouldn't maybe be carrying a bigger gun.

I much prefer the looks and handling of the Delta over the Glock, But I keep thinking The Glock would probably hold up round per round than the Delta. Nobody would probably ever shoot one enough to wear either out, but I still wonder.
