    Door to door salesmen

    I alternate my time between a private no soliciting neighborhood and a place out in the country off by itself. I have not had a legitimate sales caller in about five years. When we did get one I would normally interrupt their pitch and try to sell them personal and household items that we were...

    Moving to NY/MA/CA etc. threads...

    Yeah and don't forget about MD and IL either. Now that you think about it MI isn't so hot with their mandatory registration. Or maybe the mods could sticky these in the legal forum instead of rants? http://www.opencarry.org/ http://www.concealcarry.org/ http://www.nraila.org/GunLaws/

    walmart tv adds make me laugh.

    Walmart threads are not funny either.

    Legal question regarding Enblocs

    Ohio is weird. Car carry is illegal in Ohio without a permit. When you carry in a car it has to be open, in a holster or on a person (but must open carry). But I don't see anything on rifles.

    what to do with my guns when I'm gone

    If you have high dollar stuff the NRA museum might take them. If you have military items there are a lot of military museums that might be interested.

    Do you REALLY clear the chamber @ every fence crossing / gate opening??

    I do not. If the fence collapsed or I fell off it something while I was crossing it there could be a dangerous situation. I don't know if that has ever happened but imagine it has.

    First gun, Split between ruger 10/22 and...something else

    If I were to use bird shot I would use #2 lead, magnums. They pack quite a wallop. But I would only use that if I could find nothing better.

    From the 1911 Boyscout Manual

    In truth all quotes are out of context of the time. But certainly this quote is telling: The manual, while addressing various wars; completely ignores the quite recent US Army genocide campaign in the Phillipines less than a decade previous. In fact the treatment of all of the wars is quite...

    First gun, Split between ruger 10/22 and...something else

    Probably not. At 20', 30' maybe less so. The longest hallway in my house from the kitchen to the livingroom is over 50'. For that range the .22 wins over birdshot every time.

    From the 1911 Boyscout Manual

    In 1910 Boy Scouts were organized under Colin Livingstone into a national organization. Whereupon a dramatic change in doctrine took place.

    50-round drum and stock for Ruger 10/22

    Anyone who wants to get rid of their jamming 10/22 magazines please send them my way. I will pay shipping and throw in $2 a mag. I accept all kinds unless the lips are cracked. Strangely enough I find that a drop or two of oil in the right spot makes 90% of them function flawlessly.

    First gun, Split between ruger 10/22 and...something else

    Some interesting advice in this thread. I am not sure I would follow the stuff about birdshot, to each his own. But a good first long gun for HD would be a 20 GA, it is one of the most useful guns on earth. A .22 rifle makes a great second long gun. I can't say enough about the Ruger 10/22 they...

    Happened to me today...

    Bad guys don't ussually pick out the 6'5" teenager as a target. They will move on to someone smaller. Don't think that this makes you not a target, you still are, just not first on the list.

    From the 1911 Boyscout Manual

    Given that this was 1911, I find this passage fascinating as well: Many Boy Scouts would go to Europe to defend the aristocracy in the "Great War" that claimed more lives in Europe than any previous war.

    Confronting Drunk Trespassers and Vandals

    What I would have done. Go inside. Call police, tell them you have a violent mob on your property (they should come quick enough). Get gun, spray and camera. Record the vandalism from window. Have police arrest them. Press charges. Sue them for damages. So easy a...

    From the 1911 Boyscout Manual

    I don't know if this has been discussed before. If it has mods feel free to close/ delete: The passage was showing a comparison to archery, as archery was deemed: I am curious. I don't think there is such a division today. But I think it explains some odd ideas about conservation that I...

    No one should be above following the 4 rules

    Not to defend this tragic idiocy but Marines in training routinely violate the four rules as part of their training. Using service rifles that are either empty or loaded with blanks they point them and shoot them at each other all the time in training. Desensitization may play a role here.
