Thought this belonged on this section, as only CHL'ers would get these.

Pretty good, but not #16 for me.

Amen on #24.

"The First 48" is a great true-crime show that follows US big city detectives as they work a case
and try to find the murderers.

But it always bugs me that they rarely mention the brand/model of handgun(s) used in the crime,
or if the handgun was recovered at the time of the perp's arrest.

One of the few times they mentioned this data, it was the Houston area lady that was killed shortly
before she was going to close her business for good. The BG used a Smith and Wesson Sigma in 9MM.

I got tired of the show a long time ago, they rehash all the stuff after each commercial that they presented before it and could do the whole show in 15 minutes instead of an hour, but I suppose that's the point.

My wife watches it regularly. In one of the early shows they did two things that really got me steamed. First, the detective involved repeated the old myth that a .22lr shot to the head will bounce around inside the skull, and then when the supposed .22lr was shown it was a jacketed bullet.

It is a wonder to me the thing even went off. Lots of folks sorely disappointed with the Sigma when first released.

Mrs. SDT and I have enjoyed the Tom Selleck series "Blue Bloods" a lot, even if it is about NYC. They get most everything right save almost every perp using a Glock 17 or 19. In one of the season 3 episodes they had a freeway sniper and they talk about him using a .223. AR smear you think? No. When they finally find the murder weapon, they talk about it being a Remington 700. Good for them. We like "The First 48" and enjoy "Lt. Joe Kenda - Homicide Hunter" (is that the name?) also.

Great list! I can relate to most of them.

I assume #3 is about Hickock45's grip and not about Hickock45 and his videos per se. I love his videos and have never seen him use that thumb over the wrist grip before. That said, what the heck is up with that grip?

He was showing how NOT to hold it. He followed up by holding a hot dog there & firing a round.

Cured my sister of this last year. My mom, just a few weekends ago. Spooky stuff.

I enjoyed the list.

Haha all so so true....

Here's the video, for anyone who hasn't seen it.
