    Felons Cannot Possess Firearms or People Under Investigation for a Felony Cannot Possess Firearms?

    It's not just any crime. For example, if I'm charged with jaywalking, speeding, littering, etc., I get to keep my 2A rights. OTOH, Source: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/922

    This, ladies and gentlemen, is why I tell people, "If you're talking to the police, it's a whole lot easier to talk your way into trouble than out of it."

    Yes, RAR, Target model. I like it an awful lot, but I’m not sure I’d trade a 100%-running Savage for one. If I was curious about RARs, I’d look real hard at one of the bull barrel polymer stocked ones. I think one of those would make an excellent base for a build. FWIW, YMMV.

    I got out to zero with the original rail today. I didn’t have a ton of time, but I did get to shoot a little. 10 rd groups of CCI SV at 50 yards:

    And I don't see a problem with that plan, in and of itself. It just didn't work out that way for me. Over the course of 20+ years, I've been a divorce lawyer, prosecutor, defense lawyer, civil rights lawyer, municipal lawyer, etc ... Yep. I'm aware of the reputation. Then again, everyone...

    There's a reason lawyers are sometimes seen as "hired guns."

    Everyone has the right to remain silent. Very few have the ability.

    Handgun Spec. Comparison Website

    I discovered handgunhero quite some time ago, and I have to agree. It's very useful for comparing "the objective points" about pistols. Capacity, caliber, size, etc.

    If you want a full answer to that question, go read Miranda. The short answer from Miranda (but not generally), is that it’s unfair to place a man in custody, browbeat him into making a confession, then use that confession to convict him.

    Because Miranda v. Arizona dealt with an interrogation, not a search, and SCOTUS answers the question in front of it, not more. Search law is a related but separate body of law.

    In fairness, he did not order a new rail. He put the original back on. And he did not charge me for that.
