TexasRaiderOh yeah, forgot one.
"What do we think of..."
What is this board? A collective hive mind like something off Star Trek? Do your own research, ask for input when appropriate, but refrain from phrasing questions in such a way as to make it appear you have no ability to think for yourself and desperately need peer approval before adopting a notion. It just looks needy, man.....

When one refers to spent casings it makes me wonder how they managed to get the sausage meat out of them.

egregoreA semi-automatic handgun that does what it is supposed to do, i.e., cycle everything put through it with no stoppages, described as "boring."

2AdefenderHigh speed, low drag.
Especially when combined with the terms elite and operator.

Herknav"Just Google it." Had this happen on a local gun board the other day. Dude asks a perfectly legit question, and someone, rather than helping the guy out, decides to act like he works at Dicks.

ShneaSIGPretty much all the usual jargon and "operator speak." "Running" is probably the worst single example I can think of.
