    I don't have a Qualcomm. Who do I get permission from? :smt102

    I think the permission is implied
     
    LtMerrill Thanks this.

    I think you have to call your dispatcher, or perhaps safety.
     
    Ken and Lilbit Thank this.

    If you don't have one then you don't have to ask permission. You also don't have one to shoot!:biggrin_25523::biggrin_25523:

    Also, if your trigger is less than 9 pounds, it is illegal in a CMV

    and I forgot one other thing. If you have an extended slide release, that too is illegal

    This is all very interesting. No one seems to know any actual laws, but they swear there are. Send me the code section. Until I see it, I will continue to roll with my Mini-14 with 30 rounders to keep it fed. You know what I always say, "2 to the chest, and 28 to the head."

    Ruger Mini-14's don't swing easy inside a Big truck,
    and could easily penetrate and exit with the
    velocity of a .22 cal pill.
    For that reason, I prefer a 9m/m Craftsman and a double tap.
    Triple tap, if necessary, for those hard-headed
    desperados. :yes2557:

    A 115 grain pill, times three pills = 345 grains.
    Not to mention the shock (no relation) factor.
    And if the pill is properly placed, it'll only take one
    to git 'er done.
    29 more?
    Excess.
    Might even be considered
    overkill.
    If that's possible. :biggrin_25525:

    I stopped using my M1 Garand with M-2 AP when it went through a lot lizard that didn't service me well and through my sleeper and two other trucks. Give 'em all you got. Don't stop squeezing that trigger until you hear a click.

    Or that familiar *ping* sound when the action spits out the
    clip.
    And watch your thumb when reloading.

    I'd go with the M-14 Springfield.
    Match grade, of course.
    Backed with a 1911 .45 ACP.
     
    LtMerrill Thanks this.
