My brother had an experience in the mid-eighties. He and his partner were going from oil well to oil well checking panels or something, way out in the scrub. He had brought along a 380 Llama and while his co-worker walked up to check some readings, he stayed in the pick-up cab and admired his...

Calling everyone illegal immigrants means nothing. Immigrations laws have only been on the books for a hundred years or so. I believe Chinese immigration laws were the first. Many people came here LEGALLY. Back the the purpose of the thread, non-immigrants here legally can shoot but can not...

I like the idea of the Winter War of the Finns against the soviets but I would like to see the air war portrayed. Take the Finnish pilot, Ilmari Juutilainen, ( try and pronounce that twice), he had 94 confirmed kills and lived to a ripe old age after the war. More impressive is the fact that he...

Sounds like my brother's accident. He was checking out a friends Llama 380 in a pickup cab way out in the oilfields. Kaa-boom. He was startled and then noticed a small hole below his knee inside his left leg. Feeling no pain yet he checked the other side of his leg. A larger hole was in his...

Must have scared him away. Bring that y'all stuff and expect to be treated like a cousin. We are mighty friendly around these parts.

Thanks for seeing a few of the things I was trying to point out. As for the proficiency, that's why we qualify. Four hours a quarter. Used to be eight but don't get me started on that. The instructors look for problems like looking over the sight, jerking the trigger, flinching, ect.. and work...

You have to remember that cops do lots of jobs. Some are very good at other parts of it besides slinging a sidearm. LE Officers use a computer more than a gun, some have researching skills, some have communication skills, ect. Just because someone doesn't sleep with his gun doesn't make him a...

Thanks for serving Titan. We remember the armed forces regularly in our church and you are on our prayer list. You are never forgotten. Merry Christmas

My back up is in the rack about ten feet away. Gotta qual yearly with slug and XX.

One more tool in law enforcements arsenal. Course if you hate law enforcement, you hate their tools also. I'm curious how many people that use the "police state" banner have actually lived in a police state. No it wasn't a question. This may have started as gun related but it's quickly...

Can't see Tim Duncan getting into much mischief outside of his video games. Loyal to his high school and college (graduated both) and works with the community where his pro team is. Even made the choice to remain in San Antonio long term rather than chase money. Or sorry, this was a gun...

1. Gettysburg 2. Zulu 3. We Were Soldiers. 4. Battleground- No one had metioned it yet. An up close look at the battle of the bulge from the riflemans point of view. Unfortunately the only hispanic in the movie, Ricardo Montalban, gets killed off midway through but he has a very likeable...

No one mentioned the hunting. Most ranchers are catering to hunters now to supplement their income so many places near SA are available. For a big town SA is pretty friendly but the smaller towns are known for friendly people. i love being within two hours of SA for those quick trips. I'm...

I think Tommy Lee wanted and fought for it to be filmed in Texas. Certainly many locations could have been used. Sanderson would have been good. New Mexico Film Commission must have made a better deal. I heard the Texas accents were terrible for the most. No plans to go see it.

That would be Jimmy Stewart. So many movies/tv shows covered. Didn't leave me much. How about "Hunter" with Fred Dryer. HK P9S with comp for the first few seasons. It was featured in the title scenes. In quite a few James Bond movies, "For Your Eyes Only" for example, the bad guys...
