    Shed some light on Spec Ops battle rifle

    I never heard of a specially built SMG for that role, but I know that the JOS Warehouse at Bragg issued out a bunch of Sterling SMGs that drivers in ODAs were using for close range defense while driving for the same reason. It wasn't specially built. Didn't mean to mislead you. Now that...

    Shed some light on Spec Ops battle rifle

    People need to keep in mind that SOF units get some latitude on what they carry at an organizational not an individual level. Taking your own privately owned weapon downrange is bad juju, and I know several guys who had their long tabs pulled for doing so -- and that was back in the Wild West...

    Shed some light on Spec Ops battle rifle

    I'm not military or LE so I defer to Spec Ops personnel about what is the "best" battle rifle (or a collection of the best). For example, I have never heard nor seen or read of Spec Ops using the XCR but have seen a pic (in the latest Special Operations publication) of a SEAL using the...

    Support Illinois Gun Owners by Participating in My Blog

    A few constructive critiques Great website. Especially since you have no design experience and are using a template. I have some web design experience and wanted to offer unsolicited advice because I want your website to be successful: 1. Your website Title says "Home Page" in the top of...

    Who here may CCW or OC but does not?

    I like the idea of CCW over OC In my opinion, OC is akin (loosely) to a buff guy with tattoos walking around with his shirt off - generally, it's a signal "not to eff with me" and draws attention (in addition to other assumptions). I like the idea of CCW for defensive purposes only when...

    Help Needed - Starbucks Petition Technology

    I want to create pro-RKBA petition with the same functionality as the Brady Campaign/Starbucks petition found here: http://www.bradycampaign.org/starbucks/ (or sometimes it's on the main page) I have XHTML/CSS and graphic design skills but lack the programming skills. Anyone know of a simple...

    Silly question but...

    Concealed Carry lowers Gun Deaths. MSNBC (of all agencies) Reports.

    Also, it was interesting to note the type of gun and caliber that successfully defended Jim's life.

    Thank you! That is a fantastic article and thank you for sharing it!

    Please read my letter

    I'm under the impression that anti-gunners no longer argue whether or not citizens are allowed to own firearms, but they instead attack the capacity, caliber, aesthetics, etc. So instead of debating whether or not the 2A applies to citizens, they dissect and restrict the spectrum of "arms"

    Do Politicians Have Armed Guards?

    I wonder if Pelosi and other anti-gun politicians use armed guards/escorts for personal and private use? Obviously there are armed security agents for special events, but I'm wondering if Pelosi or other Senators have armed security assigned to them for day-to-day activity, etc. Here is why...

    Taking Activism to the Next Level

    Someone posted this already but it was closed due to moderation... I'm offering the story again because it is an excellent example of how we can be doing an even better job of promoting RKBA. (note to moderators: I believe I have fulfilled your requests in adding input) To very briefly...

    California Ammo Restriction Law

    I should first mention: I am not seeking legal advice - just curious. Perhaps you know more about the laws than I, and can shed some insight. Regarding the ammunition law that the Govinator recently signed (I think it takes effect soon?) From what I understand, fingerprints and other...

    Starbucks decision on guns in stores

    Sending Starbucks a Positive Email is Important I'm not sure how else they calculate support for their stance... or how any of that works... but as stated in the media report, much of the major media attention is biased against RKBA... so I believe it's very important to send Starbuck's a thank...

    FedEx anti CCW

    I'm curious as to what the consequences are . . . If it is legal to concealed carry in your state, but they have rules not allowing concealed carry, what are the consequences of getting caught? This is purely hypothetical. I live in California, so it's not my attempt to bend the rules or find a...

    Excellent Ideas I like your ideas and offer my support. I'll add value where I can in this thread, and if you'd like additional help, email me: nosaelg [at] gmail [dot] com. I'm starting a similar venture :) After reading your two posts, here is a suggestion off the top of my head: -...

    Starbucks Stands Up to The Brady Campaign!

    Great idea to email them! Sent them an email and have become a customer. Brady Campaign is trying REAL hard to get Starbucks to succumb. Anything we can do to support Starbucks will send the message that they made the right decision.

    The British on the 5.56 caliber

    Are our Gun Fights hiding our broad agreements?

    Recently I have been thinking about RKBA as a civil rights issue just like any other. Some of you may have this view already, but for me, this is a new stance. I propose we peacefully protest: Sort of like blacks would hold "sit ins" in public areas that were restricted for "whites only"...
