[chrome]

Inspired by some, motivated by others, trying to start a personal weapons picture thread...

the little 'bubbles' are attempts by me in photoshop , keeping the serial number unknown.

in the gun forums I hang out in, they usually start sticky's, thought I'd try something different since for somereason it will not allow me upload..

[chrome]

Forgot to mention, was offering it as a sticky for pictures and descrip only...

attachment didn't work the first time.

[MansonTheTool]

and it works in preview mode but not when I submit it, and I can't find the edit/delete posts option, so here it is in standard URL form.

BTW chrome, nice photography. You can really see how beautiful the XD is. I hate Glocks but the Springfield XDs shoot nice and look nicer.

My cousin has a blued XD40 one with the OD green polymer.

Can you pick me out of the group?

First guess: middle. Second: far right.

[Ezmartini]

Getting colder. Actually I'm the far left.

[chrome]

I see a bunch of fingers inside the trigger wells.....

[natedogg42]

Second from right looks goofy...who puts their right foot forward when they shoot with their right hand....

$.02

[neo]

Apparently the second guy from the right. What you don't know is that he also has a propensity for shanking his balls while golfing.

[natedogg42]

for a second there neo, i thought you said he has a propensity for shaking his balls while golfing...i was like...ok gross but wtf did that have to do with anything...off to class

[Ezmartini]

I see a bunch of fingers inside the trigger wells.....

If you look closely I don't think any of us do. MAYBE the guy on the right, but the goofy ball shanking guy and I don't, and the guys with the long rifles you can't tell. On second thought, they probably did too. They didn't know anything about guns.

[Wes]

Ummm your the dumbass that I CAN see the finger inside the trigger well. heh

[chrome]

They didn't know anything about guns.

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Ezmartini: "You guys clear you guns?"
Guys: "Uh - sure!"
Ezmartini: "Point them at the camera and take a picture..."

Only reason I am busting your balls, we read a case about this in my CCW class. You guys probably remember hearing about it, an E-6 in the active army handed a rifle over a younger E-4, trying to show the SPEC4 how to point and get a sight picture on a BG. SPEC4 pulled the trigger, one round straight through the heart. E-6 thought he had cleared his weapon, dropped his mag but did not lock his bolt to the rear.. forgot he actually chambered a round...

[MansonTheTool]

Let's give it a whirl again...
HK USP .40

[MansonTheTool]

So I remote linked it now just to spite Sammy and Domer and their inadequate site. (Just kidding, I love you guys for giving me a place to vent about how ghey AFROTC can be.)

[chrome]

decocked and on Safe...hooah.

[PopPunkRocker15]

probably empty magazine and chamber too?

[chrome]

Can't really tell, with XD you can see if it has one in the tube (selling my Springfield loyalty) - a gun is useless without one in the tube - about as far as you can throw it. Mine always has one in the tube, beneath my bed for quick access. Shooting the USP from Double Action isn't too bad, and safety is lightning quick to manipulate..

[MansonTheTool]

Yeah, well unfortunately I can't buy ammo either since I'm under 21, so I need to wait for this weekend when Chrome or another guy or two in our company will be buying more .40 S&W.

[Ezmartini]

Just go to the local outdoor store and tell them it's for a rifle. That's what I do. Sometimes it really is for a rifle (.45 carbine).
