    By the way that is the same FBI that had verifiable information that Cruz was going to shoot up a school (MSD) and become "the best mass killer of all time," and did nothing to either investigate or prevent the Parkland shooting, as such I wouldn't put too much credibility in that Agency when it comes to telling anyone how to protect themselves and those around them.

    And we have many excellent Sheriff's in Florida and Wayne Ivey is one of them, what you fail to understand knowing nothing about U.S. law enforcement is Sheriff's are elected which means they answer to the people unlike Chief's of Police who are appointed by City Commissioners and only answer to those Commissioners not the people they are sworn to protect.

    Our police answer to the people as well. If they **** up we expect due process to be observed. If it is a systematic problem then we ensure a whole government approach and will dump the current government

    Who cares what your police do or as in many cases with Muslims don't do.

    So ultimately who holds the FBI, both as an organization, and individual members, not only responsible but also liable for failing to investigate Nicholas Cruz, when he was reported to them for making threats on social media about committing a school shooting?

    I sometimes conceal a suppressed FN fiveseven in winter. Coveralls are great for CC! :)

    I have not tested the 5.7 on body armor. I have tested mine extensively on the farm/ranch for years on animals of everything from rabbit to euthanizing 1700 lb cows.

    It’s a great all round platform that’s light, flat shooting, high cap, and easy to care for in harsh environments.

    With good placement it’s never failed me. Ammo choice is important. Ss197 for varmints/coyotes. FMJ for head shot euthanasia on large animals, and the ss198 for defense. I put down a whitetail doe once with a heart shot with ss197 but wouldn’t recommend it.

    The SS198 Mil/le ammo is available. I keep a stash because it isn’t always available. It will penetrate body armor.

    The best place to be in a gun fight is far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far, far away. Add as many fars to that away as you like, and I'll agree with you.

    yes, I ran a 6.7 40 yard dash 35 years ago. my best time. go ahead and laugh.

    i can easily beat that time today if i hear gunfire, I won't even need to stretch. the street cam will show a bunch of people running and one guy running really really really fast ... that will be me.
