Loaded Chamber Indicator

I check the window on my sig chamber every time I grab it. I'd rather have the view port than not, though I don't like the flags. Of course I dont think it should be a requirement.

Could be you've never actually carried a weapon in a tactical situation and you are one of those mall ninjas who likes to look in the mirror and pretend he's a Navy SEAL - hard for me to say because I don't know you, so I wouldn't presume to make such a bold post as yours.

I was a Seabee not a SEAL, and apparently you're the HSLD operator. [rofl]

(who cannot remember if he loaded his sidearm[thinking] ) [laugh][laugh][laugh]

I'm done here, have a good [crying] on your blog.
 
Aww, Twigg doesn't want to play anymore. I'm glad you are an avid reader of my blog. Maybe you'll learn something and cease to be such an uneducated clown.

No reason to get insulting about it. You both disagree. Learn and grow up.

With all due respect, Twigg has shown himself to be a very well rounded member of the forum, and while his delivery may have been more confrontational than you would have liked, he did raise a very valid point
 
So as far as I can tell you are in the army and twigg was in the navy which basically means you are both wrong and should go haze yourselves.

Again, I would never use my LCI as a primary means of checking if a round is in the chamber, but if you've ever been in a situation where you are loading and unloading your gun more than once a day,

Well, there's your problem, and no LCI can fix that.

The military is absolutely stupid about firearms -- and I said as much during my three years of active duty and seven more of reserves.

Back to the LCIs being mandated either by law, lawsuit, or threat of both: they were supposedly there to stop accidents, where someone picked up a loaded gun and pulled the trigger. Two things are wrong with that: first, you can't stop morons from being morons. Second, anyone stupid enough to do that doesn't know enough about guns to know what an LCI is.

It's not like it throws up a big red flag that says "THIS GUN IS LOADED!".

Come to think of it, I might accept an unloaded chamber indicator -- one that blocks the sights with a big red flag if you're not chambered. [smile]

Another aspect I do like is that on some pistols you can see the LCI if the gun is pointed at you. I would know immediately if the gentleman pointing an M9 at me has put one in the chamber - I see that as a plus.

Not sure if serious.

go kick rocks. your a douche bag of epic proportions just throwing shit against the wall to see what sticks. well, none of it will.
 
I guess I'm still trying to understand the rules here at NES. Apprently the line between acceptable lies somewhere between Twigg calling me stoopid and me calling Twigg an uneducated clown. That will help me narrow it down when I'm searching for that line.

All I need to do is figure out which insults are between "stoopid" and "uneducated clown" - that shouldn't be hard since I'd say those are pretty close.

For every 100 non-douchebaggy posts you get to call someone stooped. You've got about 3 so far, so you have a way to go.

And LCIs are stupid.
 
Ah!

...There are no winners in an internet debate – only people still willing to beat a dead horse until it is just a pulpy mess of horse fur, blood and broken bones. Deceased equine flogging is pretty much an internet sport all in itself. Just because your initial opponent in a debate has bowed out – or even worse, if he has actually changed his mind and agreed with you – don’t let that prevent you from continuing the argument. If he agrees with you, now is a good time to try a combination attack and accuse him of being dumber than a box of hammers while continuing to argue the points he is no longer making...

It makes more sense now. (If you read some of his blog.) Compared to his blog, even LCIs appear smart.

Easy. I'll break it down for you.

Twig has been a member of this forum for some time and has earned respect.
Twig has shared very good knowledge and helped others.
Twig has given his personal time to fellow NES members and fellow marksmen.

You on the other hand came here like a progressive-preaching flaming brown-bag of crap on the doorstep of NES; dying for someone to stomp on you to put you out so you can stick all over them and make a stink. You have contributed little other than seagulling every political thread you can find, getting it locked, then throwing yourself up on a cross in a "poor me" fashion. That's not the way to win friends around here. Hell, even Davamata and Blindtroll have figured that out and have earned some respect.

Put that on your blog.

LCI on my M&P is useless. As stated earlier my XDm's LCI will stick if not meticulously cleaned. I'd happily pay less to not have it.

Not saying it makes it a great idea - just that there are clearly some people who think it isn't the dumbest thing ever.

The requirement for the loaded chamber indicator has little if anything to do with safety. In my opinion, many hope that it will discourage firearms manufacturers from participating in the MA gun market because of the added costs.

If you find it beneficial, then good for you--exercise your powers of free will and buy a gun with that feature. As for the rest of us, I'd rather buy a real Colt 1911 Series 70 with the internal extractor.

Oh wait, I can't because it doesn't have the stupid indicator.

The liberal: "That sounds like a good idea. Let's make it a law."
The libertarian: "That sounds like a good idea. I think I'll do that."

One of the key differences between liberals and libertarians isn't necessarily, the ability to recognize good ideas, but rather having the presence of mind to not automatically jump to the conclusion that good ideas must be legislated.

I really don't see the big deal on LCI's. My Luger from the eary 1920's has one that pops up on top of the receiver. Never saw a thread on any forum complaining about them. They are not something new and don't affect the operation at all. I'd never turn down any gun because ot did or did not have a LCI.
 
LCI s are gay. Especially the ruger ones. I love the 9 and 40c pistols. But odds are the lci is going galloway precision at some point
