Lucky guess. The HST is the most popular 9mm duty round. Probably because the FBI uses it. I carry HST 124g.

What kind of nail polish is that? Just a base transparent layer correct?

Post man-icure transparent base.

Here in NY you have to have a license plate on the front and rear of the vehicle. Registration and inspection stickers go on the bottom of drivers side windshield. But right over the border in PA, one LP on the rear of the vehicle with registration sticker attached to it and inspection sticker the same place as in NY. When patrolling do you see any advantages or disadvantages to either method of display?

Not really! As long as I can see the plate and run it over the air or via the MDC, that's all I care about. When I run the plate, I'll find out if the registration is valid or not, if the registered owner has wants/warrants, etc.

No front plate was an attitude adjustment summons for us.

I had no front plate here in SoCal for 30+ years and never got cited for it. The law requires it here but I guess the cops were just cool about it. I now have both a front and rear plate because I got California Legacy plates, which are black and gold and I like the way they look.

Must've been you then. It is your thread, after all.

My mother always taught me to share, so it's our thread. This thread would go nowhere without the contributions of everybody who posts here.

Okay, I'll rephrase. You started this thread so you're the OP of this thread. I know what you mean, though. lol
