Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

NWS issued a Flood Watch for my area so I got my binoculars out. I have NWS on speed dial and I'll let them know if I see one. ;)
 
Ouch!!!!!!!

U.S. Air Force’s Global Strike Command (AFGSC) has ordered an indefinite “pause” in the use of M18 pistols following a recent fatal incident at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming. This comes just two weeks after the disclosure of an FBI report that added to long-standing concerns about the ability of Sig Sauer P320-series pistols, a family that includes the M18, to fire without their triggers being pulled. Just days after that report became public, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issued a permanent ban on the use of P320s. TWZ just recently published an in-depth story on the FBI report and the fallout from it, including Sig’s refutation of the testing results,

There are additional as-yet unconfirmed claims circulating online that the airman assigned to the 90th Security Forces Squadron died after their M18 went off without the trigger being pulled. The individual in question is claimed to have removed the pistol, still in its holster, from their belt and put it on a table before it went off.

If true, this is eerily similar to an incident involving a Michigan State Police (MSP) M18 PRO LE, a commercial version of the pistol with notable differences from the U.S. military standard type, which occurred last July. The MSP pistol experienced an apparent “uncommanded discharge” while still in its holster, which was still attached to an officer’s belt at the time.

Compassion is the highest of virtues, it is like the sunlight that shines on all living beings.

~ His Holiness the Dalai Lama




This has to be made clear to every individual, even to children. It is important to make the child realize that if he loses his temper, he will suffer. If he is able to be more compassionate, he will feel more joy even while playing. If you smile, life becomes sweeter. After all, if I smile at you, you will smile back!

~ Dalai Lama




The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, resentment or love. What seeds will you plant there?

I don't like the 320 for a whole lotta reasons, and I've never touched one, let alone shot one


I'm a big fan of the 226/228/229 models, and to me, they have much to recommend them like the 1911 Brownings do.


Some folks get too smart for their own good.


If'n it ain't broke, it don't need fixin'.

I just don't trust any striker fired pistol, but that's just me.
 
If I had a hammer (fired handgun), I'd hammer all over the place.



I do like the decocker levers, however.

Should have stuck with the Berretta’s…that service weapon was bullet proof…no pun intended.
 
We can share the weasels,
We can share the whine.
Looks like we done shared all of yours
Let’s hurry up and share all of mine….
