survivalshop Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 Looks like some shenanigans going on in Iowa . http://finance.yahoo.com/news/iowa-agency-returns-800-handguns-183857912.html
planeflyer21 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 We may never know the details of it all. There are lots of these LE returns that happen, often times due to very malfuctioning pistols, where the manufacturer exchanges them. But the public never gets a warning or a recall.
blue109 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Posted May 9, 2015 One of my coworkers M&P had an issue recently. The extractor pin started working itself out. Was hanging the slide up. Only issue ive heard of so far. These things run great other than that one.
survivalshop Posted May 9, 2015 Author Report Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) I had a recall a week after I bought my M&P Shield , a trigger safety issue & a friend of mine had a M&P trigger problem & had to send his back . Mass production & they have stepped up production over since the " Queen " came to power . Edited June 3, 2015 by survivalshop
Token Posted May 10, 2015 Report Posted May 10, 2015 One of my coworkers M&P had an issue recently. The extractor pin started working itself out. Was hanging the slide up. Only issue ive heard of so far. These things run great other than that one. Wow... I have an aftermarket extractor I want to install in my M&P, but the pin is so solidly in place I broke a punch trying to remove it. A pin falling out by itself sounds pretty weird to me...
jtallen83 Posted May 10, 2015 Report Posted May 10, 2015 I'm confident things will be cleaned up properly with Ron Mower on the case, very straight shooter, both literally and figuratively. The Iowa DCI is a VERY independent agency unlike the state patrol, I've never heard of any political leanings at DCI. The details in the article do have a fishy smell, somebody will get Mower'd.
392heminut Posted May 13, 2015 Report Posted May 13, 2015 You think those three guys might have gotten some freebies from S&W? Years ago we had a retired NMSP captain get hired as our chief. He promptly worked a deal with S&W for new 4046's (which were pieces of schit!) for the whole department. We were pretty certain he got some boot from S&W but we couldn't prove it. We got him fired 14 months after he was hired for racial bias though, he was a real P.O S.!
1loco Posted June 3, 2015 Report Posted June 3, 2015 Hookers, I think they got hookers, or doughnuts. Maybe doughnuts.
jtallen83 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Posted June 5, 2015 Once you see the hookers here in Iowa you may just change your mind, at least stick with a :strokin:
planeflyer21 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Posted June 5, 2015 Doughnut hookers? Stay away from the ones with frosting.
Robocop1051 Posted June 6, 2015 Report Posted June 6, 2015 Once you see the hookers here in Iowa you may just change your mind, at least stick with a :strokin: I don't think it matters what state your in... the street urchins here in California barely pass as humans.
unforgiven Posted June 7, 2015 Report Posted June 7, 2015 Stay away from the ones with the red frosting. Fixed it for ya brother.
planeflyer21 Posted June 7, 2015 Report Posted June 7, 2015 Fixed it for ya brother. I'll stay away from any woman with frosting, regardless of the flavor of the syrup. <laughs>
survivalshop Posted June 14, 2015 Author Report Posted June 14, 2015 The M&P 9mm has other problems for those not used to them , as seen here . http://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-me-sheriff-guns-20150614-story.html#page=1
planeflyer21 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot! Takes a special kind of person to shoot themselves in the leg whilest drawing from the holster. Let a round fly when tripping over a stroller in a closet? And the old "It's a good thing I was in the bathroom when my pistol 'just went off' by itself." The most important "safety" is between the handler's ears.
98Z5V Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 Awesome quote from that last article... <lmao> "If you still have your finger on the trigger when you put it in your holster, you'll end up with a stripe on your leg," Fairburn said.
blue109 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 The really offensive part of that article : some split tail can't qual at the range. She files suit. We can assume that she won the lawsuit because the department changed weapons. In addition to that taxpayer funded ridiculousness, she probably either got a big payout, or the job...or maybe both. This "civilization" has just about run its course, and I'm a-ok with that.
MikedaddyH Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) They made quals equal for both men and women and now their are more women on the force. One of my BFF's from school is a Deputy Sheriff in South Florida and she worked hard for the job. No lawsuits needed. Can't blame all the women for the actions of one.

unforgiven Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 That's why I like the 1911 grip type safety on Xdm.Thumb on striker pin on reholstering.I would say ND is still operator error.Jus my 2 mags.
blue109 Posted June 14, 2015 Report Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Can't blame all the women for the actions of one. Who blamed women for anything? I don't even blame that cunt for suing. More power to her. I blame an idiotic system that let it get anywhere. Edited June 14, 2015 by blue109
