  I completed the challenge. Completed is a weird way to say it. It's more like I did something most people are too afraid to do. It was quite the spicy pepper to say the least. I'm glad I didn't swallow because I think the residual capsaicin is already doing quite a bit of damage. Fantastic.

Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC), a 9mm compact carbine that's ideal for home defense or indoor situations. I recently came across this Extar EP9 PCC while doing some research.
