I seem to remember that the Court ruled at one time that slavery was constitutional also. They are mere men and subject to the prevailing prejudices of their time. Just because the current ensemble says that something is not Constitutional, it doesn't mean that they are right. If a person...
Well, when the Feds violate their own laws (i.e. the Constitution), I don't see any reason why we should follow their laws. The Supreme Court is not infallible and their MISinterpretation of the Commerce Clause is just one example of it.
Now, if we could just get these punkass kids of today to realize that they need to wear suspenders. More than once, I have directed them to the suspender department when I was in Wal-Mart and their ghetto imitating butts were hanging out and advertising their desire for some backdoor lovin'.......
I had figured that there was enough desert around El Paso that you didn't have to travel far to find empty land to shoot on anyway. Back in the old days, we would just find an old dry creek and shoot there.
+1, except that I already have a few M1911s (one is even a 10+1 model).
Now, having said that, most of my carry guns handle 10+1 or less, but for those rare instances where I decided to carry a handgun that allowed more than 10 rounds in the mag, I would not let some stupid unconstitutional...
Whether they are effective is probably debatable. Personally, I agree with their platform a LOT more than the NRA's. The NRA seems to be more inclined to just slow the erosion of our 2A rights instead of fighting to take them back to what the Founding Fathers intended. I've heard it argued...
The Winchester 1300 "Defender" is an 8 shot 12-gauge that is offered with a pistol grip and with a typical shotgun length stock. With 3" shells, it goes down to *only* a 7-shot. +1 in the chamber probably...
Although I have a mechanical lock, I would have to admit that electronic locks are a lot quicker. There are safes out there that are electronic, but have a mechanical backup lock that can be used to lock and unlock the safe in the event of a problem with the electronic lock (e.g. you have been...
Load a 12-gauge shotshell in a flare gun and you'll understand the reason that you don't want to exceed the rated chamber pressure.
BTDT -- ouch...........
I miss the days when there were few gun ranges, but there were still plenty of places where we could still go shoot. If we could just get all those Damn Yankees (and their descendants) to go back up north where they belong, maybe we could get back to that level of population density.
Yeah, I...
I've never really gotten into muzzle loaders or studied up on the various types, but I stumbled across something today concerning "inline action" blackpowder rifles. My idea of having the 12-gauge shell just contain the primer and powder seems to be basically just the next step in the...
Which brings about an interesting question... In the event of a catastrophic failure of the barrel from exceeding the allowable pressure, would it be safer to have your head near the chamber like we carry a rifle or to have it 2 ft in front of the chamber (assuming a 4 ft long barrel / total...
I have to wonder at what point the people will finally decide that they've had enough of this excrement, rise up, and take action against these traitors to our constitution. Although there are more gun owners than there are cops and military combined, I suspect that the government is relying on...
Can't seem to post an inline image from Google Drive, but here's two links...

Probably the most eager to please dog that I've ever had. Gets along with everyone (i.e. no...
I guess what I'm thinking of is a shoulder version of the old breech loading cannons from the 1860s or so, but with smokeless powder instead of blackpowder.

Instead of having the primer / percussion cap and...
The military has used electrically fired primer systems on certain larger weapons over the years. On 16" guns of the Iowa class battleships, the primers were a separate mechanism that were loaded last and if it failed to ignite, it could be easily replaced without necessitating the reloading of...
