Don't take this the wrong way at all.... but if you want my honest suggestion, mine is not to bother with lights. I did it for years when I first joined the fire service but the more I listened to the older & wiser folks around me, the more I realized it's really a waste of time and money...
Have a good time and for God's sake wear sunblock! Just got back from a 4-day trip visiting family and we took a charter out to fish ourselves - we fish for perch but I did also hear that it was a good year so far no matter what you're fishing for. We had a good time, very good experience...
Exactly how far up the rectum do you expect someone to put that glucose? Seeing as how the vagus nerve is a cranial nerve whose lowest insertion is around the diaphragm, you'd have to be pretty overzealous (ie shoulder-deep) to stimulate it with a small tube like the business end of a tube of...
I like to be loyal to my "local" shop but i dare say I'll be back to Bradis. Very friendly staff, no one too busy or too impatient to answer a question, and all willing to provide some education to a new shooter without making me feel dumb (deserved or not!). And of course great prices. This...
Any gel with simple sugars is good, the thicker the better. Thin liquids can cause problems if the patient isn't alert enough to handle liquids well. Gels can also be spread between the cheeks and gums of a semi-conscious patient and most will absorb rapidly (which is the only reason I might...
Thanks so much for the responses so far - and I'm glad to see I was right to not be I. A hurry to get my hacksaw out. I'd really like to end up with something that doe's a little of everything, although I understand the trade off that means it probably won't do anything exceptionally well. I...
Hi all, looking for some wisdom...
I recently purchased my first AR and after several trips to the range, feel good about shooting with irons. I wanted some glass for it and after talking to a couple guys at my LGS, bought a Guntec Prism 1, which I think I would be pretty happy with...
This (and the rest of the post).... very well said. LC9 is my primary carry and the strengths and weaknesses are very well highlighted here. That said, I like it for the purpose I carry for and it's easily concealable with the factory, tuckable holster it comes with. :twocents:
EDIT: Sorry...
Not to hijack a thread, but I have a similar question - I own a standard Mil-spec 5.56 AR and am considering the .22lr conversions that seem pretty fairly priced. I'm just not familiar with how they work - is this just a drop-in BCG and magazine and that's it? Or is it more involved somehow...
Had very similar problems with a brand new Stag AR I bought several weeks ago. Bought 1K steel rounds with the gun as well as some brass. When shooting brass, ran like a champ. Start a mag of steel, had a jam within ten rounds. Clear the jam, run three or four mags of brass without a...
Best plan: Call the insurance company or the provider. Ask for and write down his/her name. Then ask that person to three-way-call the other entity. Do the same thing with the person that answers.
There are service providers that bill insurance companies on behalf of patients in which...
It's not about being scared. It's about making sure they are there to treat you once the scene IS safe. EMT classes are so full of material already, they can't possibly train students in how to properly identify threats, secure weapons, restrain bad guys, etc..... that's why law enforcement...
I won't chime in on the original issue, but thanks to everyone posting about their good experiences and the description of good customer service, i now find myself heading to TD's site....
