    Different Views on Gun Ownership

    I grew up in the country, with guns. My wife grew up in the suburbs, without. She didn't like guns when we first started dating. She thought they could just go off, that's what she'd been told. We sat down with my 1911 and took it apart, she learned about the machine. How it works, what it...

    Guns for camping?

    I just spent the weekend at Crater Lake. Crater Lake National Park has "No Weapons allowed in the park" posted. I'm guessing this is the same for all national parks now. I wonder how long it'll be before hatchets and hotdog skewers are forbidden... What's next, pointy sticks? To answer...

    If you had your CCW on you but forgot your license would you still carry?

    If I forget my wallet and am carrying, I can't carry at work, I would probably be with my wife. I'd just have her carry because she would have her CCW with her. :D The likelihood of her forgetting her purse and my forgetting my wallet is minimal. (My last act of forgetfulness was going...

    If I'm in civilization and am carrying concealed - I carry one spare magazine. If I'm outside of civilization I carry at least two spare magazines.

    Things that might cause NICS delays?

    I've had two delays. One, because the system was down, I was approved the next morning. The other, because I didn't write my SSN on the form. Three days later I was approved. I don't have a very common name, I think they hold it on purpose if you don't supply your SSN.

    Delayed for 1st time in 7 years. Yikes!?

    I was delayed for three days on the last one I bought. I left off my SSN. Every other purchase I've done I included it and was never delayed.

    Fired from job for discussing guns. Terroristic threats?

    My boss caught me looking at a review of the SIG 232 on my PC. I then got a lecture on how PPKs are better. :D At my last job... I'd have been fired.

    Zumbo.. Friend or Foe?

    Friend??? Foe??? I believe a better description is "acquantance." He formed an opinion out of ignorance. Fortunately for all gun owners he appears to want to learn and adapt. Is he a friend? I don't think he is, not yet, but there is potential. Is he a foe? No, he realized that being...

    This is a joke right?

    It doesn't matter whether or not you believe in monsters. What matters is whether the monsters believe in you.

    Laser Training Systems

    AVOID I bought a Bullite and it did not work. Very slow to respond via e-mail, about a week to get a reply. They sent me a replacement part that they said would fix it, it took six weeks before they shipped. The part didn't fix the problem. I mentioned the word "return" and they stopped...

    Gun Registration for Militia Service

    Maybe... If by registering myself and a firearm that I was issued... Ok. My own firearms... No way! Someone might get the bright idea that I have too many firearms for one person to use at a time. That my "extra" firearms would be useful in other people's hands. They can't afford a...
