    BATF wants to talk to me

    The ol' man is a world class physicist that spent his whole adult life in infrared/countermeasures business and he was asked to examined those tapes from Texas. HE DISAGREES WITH YOU, scientific facts DO exist.

    BATF wants to talk to me

    No need to be nervous without cause, right you are. Speaking for myself, I don't disparage fellow citizens that are rightly nervous about the growing hostility to everything related to firearms- I try to help in what little way I can. I know about the BATF and what they did in Texas, the...

    The 'Panic' and Us

    LOL ! Living 5 min. south of DC , the Washington Post would call regularly and beg for a subscription. I'd tell them - "No thank you , I use to have a use for the Post but my bird died".... After a long pause they'd figure out that was a "no" and hang up :)

    The 'Panic' and Us

    I've got 18" pump 12's and M1 cabines. Bo Gritz was a family friend at one point and he recommended the M1 over all other home defense weapons. I went with his recommendation. Ammo is cheap, weapon light, kick mild and 30 round clips. Just enough firepower to let the trolls know that you're not...

    The 'Panic' and Us

    True and makes good sense - you can't live in fear. Once again the silent majority are going to have to stand up and be counted. That said, if I'm honest I have to ask myself some questions. What are the causes of civil unrest? Do these causes exist or just appear to? What is the likelihood...

    The 'Panic' and Us

    I've too have spent more than I can really justify on my meager income. My girl views me as a paranoid zealot - so be it. I am worried and if that makes me a knuckle dragging boob - so be it again. I've spent what I can on duplicate firearms and stocked up on rounds - guilty. I live 5 minutes...

    Ammo Shock!

    It looks like there is no doubt a paranoid mania is having an impact on pricing but what justifies a price increase? One of the guys here said that the manufacturers are going up! Walks like a duck - quacks like a duck - it's - it's a what? All of this could be put to bed if the...

    Ammo Shock!

    PT Barnum said "there's a sucker born every minute". Why keep prices down when you can bleed the suckers dry. These forums are a powerful tool and meeting place of many hobbiest. Why doesn't head of this forum link up with head of others and designate a rep. Have that rep call Remchesterby...

    Ammo Prices

    If it gets old fast to hear complaints, you are free not to participate in the discussion as well as the buying of bullets. If bullet pricing reaches beyond the means of the common man to purchase then that might be something worth taking a closer look at. Some folks can opt to shrug and...

    Ammo Prices

    Duke I never complained about the price of firearms - pleanty of competition and fair pricing. You can buy a Remington 770 for 300 bucks - fair indeed. You get what you pay for and a 770 is not a 700- but will it drop a deer, sure will.

    Ammo Prices

    Agreed. We have a unique relationship with the gun industry that's unlike other businesses. We give to the NRA who supports our cause to keep and bear arms. Part of the cause is to help private manufacturers from abusive and fool hardy laws. So we give twice, once for the product(s) and again to...

    Time to Bust Some Panic Myths

    Thanks for the info, throttle,209 and shung... I was trying to exaggerate to make a point about the lengths to which the "safety" police would go but as it turns out....... too funny

    Time to Bust Some Panic Myths

    I think they are going to try a different tac. I think they will try to force gun makers and bullet manufacturers to implement costly "safety" gizmos of one kind or another. And nothing is too fantastic or foolish or too costly to implement when the drum beat of "save the children" gets...

    Starting a "well-organized militia"

    I don't know what choices are left. I think threads like this start out of frustration from people that feel they are not represented and don't know what else to do about. Who can blame them? At least they are trying to do something about thier circumstances. I certainly don't feel represented...
