    Did you buy one just 'cuz "they" don't want you to?

    I didn't touch a centerfire rifle for 25 years. But due to the hard push by Obama and his fellow travelers at the end of 2012 (right after the election), I picked up an AK variant. Still don't need it. But I've got it.

    Have a "Plan B"

    Further evidence that guns aren't magic wands. Also, cameras are even less so.

    pop quiz... least respected JMB ?

    Well, the BHP isn't attributable soley to JMB I don't think. Maybe you mean the M1919A4?

    1986 Miami FBI Shootout

    So, can the FBI run you off the road whenever they want? If you fought back, wouldn't that be self-defense? If somebody else runs you off the road is that assault with a deadly weapon or impersonating a federal officer?

    Draw your weapon to fire or to scare away?

    Use the minimum force necessary to neutralize the threat, up to and including deadly force. Don't draw unless deadly force is authorized. Don't shoot unless no lesser force works or is practicable.

    LCR broke!

    A. Honda = quality B. Plastic revolvers represent innovation, not improvement

    642 Club Part Deux

    One question. What is the story on the ugly triggers? They appear to be the same on 442 as on 642. Not blued, not SS. Pre-fouled?

    Are you sure it was Arabic or just something other than Latin characters?

    Problems with M4's

    Well, it's an assault rifle not a machine gun. I don't believe it's intended to be used to engage targets at rifle range on automatic. I still need to get a centerfire rifle. I've been planning on an AR. But maybe I should get a Saiga instead.

    Read this.

    The guy doesn't come across as all that unreasonable. I think he's just fallen in with a bad crowd.

    Martial Art that includes firearms

    Wheelgunslinger: Nobody said anything about your 1, 2, or 3. At least not that I detected. Also, I'm talking about one-on-one, two grown men who don't use walkers, neither apparently armed.
