I seem to recall when I got my CHL that there is a 60 day maximum limit within which the State has to respond to your application. They didn't beat it by much, but at 60 days I was good to pack. One advantage of Galveston and nearby areas is that it is possible for mere mortals to own ocean-...

Saw this story here: http://www.livescience.com/technology/080201-electromagnetic-record.html and a video here: http://www.livescience.com/php/video/player.php?video_id=080201-railgun Some of the still shots match the Fox story, but the Livescience video shows what is clearly a...

Her comments include a surprisingly clear statement of what Hilary would do if it were not for those "very powerful political winds": illegal guns are the cause of so much death and injury in our country In other words she realizes that passing laws and making guns illegal has not solved...

Just how high do you have to be to make that mistake??!!! :eek:

At an IDPA match three or four years ago we had a scenario that started with a target about five feet away. You were required to draw, "verbalize" to your "attacker", double tap it, and then move to the rest of the course of fire. First half dozen shooters verbalize "Drop the gun, drop the...

Appears to me that the good news and bad news in this situation is that the problem is being caused by the neighbor's business. Bad news in that it is resulting in lots of trespassing riders, but good news that it should increase the chances of turning things around and getting the trespassing...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070928/ap_on_re_us/attorney_ledge;_ylt=AuxoSSBF7tVp36uGB.uCqHxI2ocA Short story: Apparently drug addicted lawyer robs pharmacy at gunpoint of prescription meds, is caught by police, stabs himself in the neck with a pencil in one suicide attempt, then jumps from a...

Special Ops. Just read that one a couple weeks ago. Stripper clips were bad, but what really chapped me was Griffin's multiple references to the Beanies' use of M16's and M4 Carbines in events taking place in 1965 (dates on about every third page). Army didn't begin real issuing of XM16A1 /...

A very interesting and thought-provoking article. Much to ponder on several levels in the entire piece and the last four sentences in particular.

I was watching WWL (the CBS affiliate station in New Orleans) on cable in Houston last Thursday or Friday evening when I saw a segment that put my jaw on the floor. They had tape and a story on a NG unit from Oregon or Washington state that was guarding an already partially looted grocery...

My grandfather served during the Great War as well. He was a Corporal in Company F of the 212th Engineer Regiment of the 12th Division. I picked up a few items he kept from his service days from my mother a couple of weeks ago. One of the items is a Regimental history book which relates that...

Saw this at the "Musee de l'Armee" in Paris. The descriptive text was French, but it looked like this was being worn by one of Napoleon's generals at Waterloo. Must have hurt like heck, but not for long... Lesson #1: If you use enough gun there is no need for two to the body...

To answer my own question: I called Hornady and their technical folks said that the LNL sub-plate will not fit the case feeder to a Pro-Jector. So unless you have a machine shop to make your own sub-plate you can not put the new case feeder on a P-J. At present they have no plans to make a...

I have an old Hornady Pro-Jector and would like to add a case feeder. I have always assumed that the LNL is the same as the P-J with the die holes enlarged to accept the LNL bushings, but in checking some old posts on the LNL, it sounds like the primer feed and/or case ejection systems may be...

Dang it Nightcrawler - get your numbers right! Since 89% of people went to publik skul and only 42% of publik skul graduates can add, much less do statistics, only 37% of people can make up statistics. ;)

Rock Jock and Helmut, Glad you guys enjoyed the match. I thought it was great too [insert legal disclaimer on account of I made up some of the stages including the infamous "potato shots"]. Abe did a great job of putting it all together. There is talk of having another match in the fall or...

There will be a great charity carbine match Saturday July 26 in Houston. The match will include 7 stages including CQB work, long range (100, 200, and 300 yd) targets, lots of moving and shooting on the run, a variety of shooting positions, two story "house clearing", and paper, steel, and...

If it would have been a low-powered pellet gun I guess they would have taken the kid to the Hospital for Healthy Children. Can't blame 'em, its just too cold for proper brain function up there in Canada.

RPG Definite one shot stop. A little messy, but most satisfying. :D

Bingo!! Winner!! Give that man a kewpie doll !!! GregoryTech saved the best for last in his series of excellent posts: "The only way to be free is to take the risk and allow others to be free. Once you try to decide who deserves their rights, someone else will decide if you deserve yours."...
