    Beretta Stampede or Taurus Gaucho?

    Thanks for all the help. Now I have more choices that I started with. Unfortunately, my local gun store carries neither the stampede nor the gaucho. (Northern Virginia, anyone?) However, I did notice that the Gaucho had an ugly hump thing on the hammer, as well one giant, not-so-tasteful...

    Beretta Stampede or Taurus Gaucho?

    Now I'm also considering the cimarron/uberti's as well, now that peer pressure had talked me out of a *need* for transfer bar safety. I was at a local range and they had 7.5" cimarron for sale, and the longer barrel, I felt, just really appealed to me. As for finishes - I like the nickel...

    Kershaw/assisted opening knives

    my kershaw stayed sharp for about a month. Paid $70 for it. The worst thing i cut with it was pine wood and tough leather. That Tanto I bought off Ebay, made out of folded "damascus steel" or whatever (will rust if you don't oil it) is still as sharp as the day I got it. And I chop...

    Beretta Stampede or Taurus Gaucho?

    Well hmm. Suddenly that transfer bar safety doesn't feel so important anymore. You gotta pull the parking brake if you're parked in neutral on a hill; at some point, it should become second nature to keep an empty chamber under the hammer.

    Beretta Stampede or Taurus Gaucho?

    I'm looking at the Ruger product page, and the longest NM Vaquero they offer in .357 is five and half inches. Or does Ruger need to update their databases? The restrictions I had are more like preferences or guidelines. It's not set in stone. I just don't want to shoot myself in the...

    Beretta Stampede or Taurus Gaucho?

    Any American male raised on apple pie and baseball has at one time or another wanted to be a cowboy, yes? You can't be a cowboy without a Peacemaker, and I've always wanted one. The things I want in a SAA/ clone are: .357/.38spl - because circumstances do not allow me at current to do my...

    Ron Paul Mega-Thread (Mergeness)

    Unfortunately, I don't own a sprawling, fortified compound in Montana. ...And you've missed the point altogether. But do go on, talking about tax code and stuff. So... talking about the electability of person running for an elected office is... irrelevant? Non Sequitur. Um. I...

    Ron Paul Mega-Thread (Mergeness)

    I'm going to plagiarize myself here (from something I typed up on TFL): Recap: Whatever it is the Browns are doing, whether you agree with them or otherwise, they did threaten to kill cops, and they did accuse the court system of being rigged by Masons. For the love of your diety of...

    Rockland County Judge Victor Alfieri violates citizens rights!

    I can't wait for the day when I own over 150 handguns. If only so I can have a tiff with the local judge.

    Ron Paul Mega-Thread (Mergeness)

    He equated a couple who threatened violence and accused the court system of being overrun by Freemasons to.... Ghandhi. Instead of discussing the things that smart politicians should and shouldn't do, some are once again debating about tax code, thereby dodging any talk of possible...

    Historical event question

    It's a distortion of facts created by ISPs (Internet service providers). "Internet Deregulation" is a full blown misnomer. ISPs claim that they want to do as they please with their bandwidth lines, thus claiming "deregulation." But that bad logic goes against the "common carriage" principle...

    All Police Should Be Required By Law To Wear Personal Recorders

    Your Honor, my defendant, Johnny Q. Law, is in no way intentionally obstructing justice. Seriously! It got wet the night before when he, um, er, fell in the lake! The recorder must have shorted out or something. Tell you what - we should sue the company that makes these devices for not...

    "Can I look in the vehicle?" wife & kids present

    Like I said, if the cop has to ask, then the cop knows that he/she is not in a position to take freely. So don't give anything voluntarily. However, saying a bunch of "No, officer"'s or wisecracks is gonna get you in deeper poop, because it verges on defiance. Just reverse the question...

    "Can I look in the vehicle?" wife & kids present

    A little personal experience here - on multiple occasions... why me? The trick I've found is that you should never answer any questions. If the cops have cause to do whatever they please, they wouldn't be asking questions - they'll just be doing. So if they have to ask questions, you have...
