And my next purchase will either be an XDS or an M&P Shield...I can get the Shield WAY cheaper than the XDS, but I want to shoot both before deciding.

Not saying this strike was illegal by any means, but it sure seems spectacularly ill advised.

It's certainly not far removed from strikes conducted during Obama's presidency, but a dead American civilian on the very first op is a hell of a bad omen.

I don't give a poo poo about Al-Alwaki himself. I'd argue he'd more or less renounced his citizenship through his actions.

NYPD just authorized it for off duty so I assume reliability issues were mitigated, but it doesn't do anything a Glock doesn't do better.

One year, the NYPD had 6-7 negligent discharges, all Khar. Ray Kelly, the commissioner at the time loving hated guns and demanded a 12lb trigger pull in the Khar. Khar couldn't get the gun to work reliably with this trigger pull and Kelly banned it. Edit: the NYPD mandates all discharges not at a range be reported, most of those NDs were off duty, gently caress knows how those idiots managed it.

I've never held a Glock that felt comfortable, so they're out right off the bat (yes, I'm the only person who hates shooting Glocks). I borrowed a Shield a couple of weeks ago...it shot well, but didn't feel especially well put together.

Right, the real question is whether this was a fluke or indicative of greater risk tolerance in these sorts of things by the new administration.

Can confirm that State found out about this thing right around the same time that everyone else in government did, i.e. after Trump signed it. This will get worse before it gets better. Much, much worse.

I'm excited that this is proof that the world is ending (and sympathize with that viewpoint), but just for fun- I challenge anyone to post an intelligent article about how the EO could / might be stopped. I also challenge anyone to post an article with international reaction.
