    Is Breakfree CLP all you ever need to clean a gun?

    Personally I use #9 to clean the barrel and such but CLP on everything else. That guy seems to be going overboard. There is nothing wrong with what youre doing, but a little #9 in there couldnt hurt. edit: To me soakings seems like a waste of cleaner. Sure, its going to get it squaky clean...

    Basic Human Right.

    Heh, this is so very true. I was pretty casual until the AWB ran out. Then I started stocking up for the next one to come along. I imagine most of my purchases over the coming years will all be the scary types.

    Where do kids learn gun violence from?

    Propaganda works in a very specific way by conveying a message. Just raw violence doesnt actually convey any messages. So unless there is something with violence out there that goes out of its way to teach kids that violence is the best solution and blah blah blah it just doesnt hold water...

    Where do kids learn gun violence from?

    Drugs and the war that has been waged on them by the government. If you outlaw something the blackmarket will start dealing in it and with that comes crime. We saw it during prohibition and we see it with gun control. If people were really interested in stopping violent crime(or at least put...

    Any Para People out there?

    I carry a LDA 14.45. I got mine in the weird time period after the LDA trigger system but before the PXT power extractor. And my LDA actually has a hammer spur so it looks like a plain old 1911. I like it. In fact I love the thing. Its never given me trouble. I had to send it in to be fixed...

    A gift for a proud daddy

    The sad thing is had the kid drawn that in school the administration would have a big meeting on how long to suspend him and what couselor to send him to and which button child services is on speed dial. He must be saved from this evil horrible house of death!

    Movie with the best gun quotes

    Serenity: Mal: Jayne, how many weapons you plan on taking? You've only got the two arms. Jayne: Well I just get excitable as to choice. Like to keep my options open. Mal: I dont plan on any shooting taking place during this job. Jayne: Yeah what you plan and what takes place aint...

    Statement in my Cultural Anthropology textbook...

    Truly. We argue up and down about the government having the power to take our rights and such but many people here support the government having the power to legally kill its citizens. Not only that some want that power expanded. I do support the death penalty in the idea that some scum just...

    Statement in my Cultural Anthropology textbook...

    Well, considering murder rates kept rising after it was put in place there isnt much evidence to say it does. I guess you could argue that there isnt full on proof that it doesnt, so a statement of fact like that is somewhat misleading but its hardly outright false. The way I see it is much...
