  9. i want security, but the install...?

    it depends on the car. we always recommend professional installation for anything as involved as this just because a you will have to worry about specific triggers, polarity, and different settings.

    Thanks for the reply, even though I posted in the wrong section.

    I'll definitely take your advice in leaving an alarm install to the pros. Too bad I don't live in Cali or anywhere near.....I'm in the middle of nowhere, hours from any big city :(

    If that's the case, just taking the keys out of the ignition should give you better protection than half the cars around you. LOL.

  16. Can civilians purchase "LE" ammo?

    I recommend buying what the police use in their firearms. If it's good enough for them, it's good enough for you and me.

    I can't imagine any but the most retarded gun banning states not allowing personal defense ammunition (which is pretty much what LE ammo is).

    I disagree with the first part of this. Police departments have more to take into consideration when choosing their ammo than most think. They are more likely to have to use their firearms and use them in a more difficult situation than your every day Joe. With that in mind, just because it's good enough for them and fits their budget doesn't mean it's good enough for everyone else. In my area the cops use Speer Gold-dots. Not a bad round but not good enough for me. In all my 9mm's I carry Winchester Ranger SXT's (aka Black Talon's) either in 127gr +P+ or 147gr depending on which gun it's in. In my .45's I prefer Hornady XTP TAP FPD. I chose those particular rounds after doing my own tests with them along with researching them on the web.

    We'll have to agree to disagree:)

  21. M1A Socom II EBR Mod 0

    LOL. You're an idiot.

    1. It doesn't have the slightest resemblance to a SKS.

    2. The chassis is made from aircraft grade aluminum. Everything Tapco makes is cheap polymer.

    3. The chassis alone costs more than two Tapco'd out SKS's.

    4. This is the same weapon US Navy Seals, Army Rangers, Air Force, and the Coast Guard use, except it's semi-auto.

    5. This fires a larger round than the SKS.

    6. There's no such thing as a $3000 SKS.

    I'm sorry to have offended you. I didn't mean to come across as condescending.

    Judging from my previous post alone I can understand why you would say I was an idiot, but I have to disagree.

    I know the difference between 7.62x39 and 7.62x51. I've put a magazine through a standard stock SOCOM M1A.

    When I saw the M1A video you linked here, the rifle struck me as similar looking to a tapco'd SKS, when compared to

    most M1As. Once again I'm sorry to have offended you good sir. Please accept my apology.

  23. Still no xp3000 load test???

    flwatersaver, great information. Is it kosher for you to post this info in the electrical section of this site, in addition to the sponsor section of the site that this thread is currently in? Also, are you able to do a few more tests on the duracell and the D3100, specifically the time it takes for a fully charged XSPower D3100 and the Duracell to go from a fully charged state to 10.5 volts under the following continuous loads:

    50 amp

    100 amp

    150 amp

    200 amp

    250 amp
