Prices on both AR and AK type rifles have fallen during the past few months. They
are some of the lowest I've seen in at least a couple of years. If you are looking for
a good budget AR I would suggest the S&W M&P 15. It is a great rifle for someone
new to the AR platform. I have really...
My post was not meant to be taken too seriously although it is true that a majority
of restaurants in our state that serve BBQ and down home cooking are owned
by and cater to customers that are strong supporters of the Second Amendment.
I'm just joking a little bit here. The Pit is in one of...
I'm sorry, I take issue with the title of this thread. The Pit is not a NC BBQ restaurant
proper, it is a yuppie wannabe restaurant that serves a facsimile pork product they
call BBQ. No real Eastern BBQ restaurant would have a no guns allowed sign on their
front doors. I have lived here my...
This is what I do too. I've noticed a decrease in my hearing with age and I have
decided to preserve all I can from here on out. I have a set of foam earplugs with
a cord I wear around my neck whenever I hunt now.
I just picked up a Pietta Remington New Army 1858 too but mine had been
gently used and came with a .45LC cartridge conversion cylinder instead of
the black powder one. It is a beauty and a tank compared to the Uberti
1873 7 1/2 Peacemaker I own. If I decide to go black powder with my...
Here's a another vote for the .30-06. I love my Marlin 336 in .30-30 too but the .30-06
will reach out a little farther for those long shots you take in wide open areas at distances
longer than 150 yards. I have a Savage 110 in .30-06 and have no regrets about buying
or using it at all. It is...
I got my CCW permit in North Carolina back in 2010. It was a eight hour class taught
by a police officer/certified Glock armorer. There were eleven of us in the class, eight
men and three women. The classroom instruction included shoot/don't shoot video
demonstrations, some instruction on...
I've got a Century Arms Tantal too and I have had no issues with it. It is a lot of fun
to shoot and even my wife likes to fire it. 5.45X39 is still available and relatively cheap
and easy to find. Some of the early Tantals that Century put on the market had barrels
that were chambered for...
It is no surprise to see David Price's name on this proposed legislation along with
that of Mel Watt. David Price has been my Congressman for almost thirty years
and I've voted against him in every election in which he has run. I am in the
minority in the Raleigh/Durham area, surrounded by...
I have two rifles that I use:
Marlin 336CS - .30-30 with a 160 grain bullet for woods, heavier cover
Savage 110 - .30-06 with a 150 grain bullet for open fields and places where
I might take a longer shot.
The Bowie did come in handy for clearing brush and limbs, this area is
not one that we regularly hunt and it served it's purpose. It will stay at
home next time. The pillow is something I use to give my back a little
relief and since I do not have a tree stand set up there, the chair comes
in...
My problem when I go deer hunting is not that the things I carry are silly but
it is that I carry too much with me sometimes. The poet William Blake once
said "Too much is better than not enough" and I agree with that philosophy.
However, after a hunting trip where I had to walk over a mile...
As most of the previous posters have said, gunshows are not the place to go if you
are looking for bargain basement prices for firearms and shooting supplies. I haven't
been to a show in about two years now since I have had three new gunstores open
within fifteen minutes of where I live. Most...
