    She is my one and only

    Great story! I hope you have many happy years together. But in the words of the philisopher "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with." The "gal" I spend every day with is a Kimber-ly Pro Carry. But on weekends, my time is usually divided between her cousins...

    New .416 Barrett?

    This is great! Even though it should have a higher velocity, the muzzle energy and recoil should be the same as or less than the .50BMG, since both ME and recoil are functions of mass and velocity of bullet, powder and firearm. There has been a resurge in the popularity of .416 cartridges in...

    Welcome, jsr5! You've finally found the best gun and shooting forum on the internet. BTW, since nobody thought to mention it, the new guy buys beer and ammo. Make mine Bud and 10mm. :D

    What was your first gun?

    1st shot: Dad's S&W Police and Military .38 bought before I was born in '54. Still got it, the original box, cleaning rod and oiled paper. It's still mint. 1st owned: Remington 552 given to me by my father on my 11th birthday. Still got it. Not quite mint 'cause there have been many...

    Halloween Costume......

    Thanks for posting this, Drizzt. Day-by-day has become my favorite comic on the web since our local rags are too leftist to publish it.

    (OK) Mill finds new use for guns

    What the h*** does "sporting purpose" have to do with anything? I read my copy of the Constitution again yesterday (it doesn't take that long and everyone should be required to do so before every election.) and "sporting purpose" is nowhere in the Second Amendment. As for pieces of "junk"...

    This one just left me speachless... can you tell she's a Journalism major?

    . . . . and with a poor command of the English language. Sadly, this is not only the future but also the present of American journalism. Further "education" at an institution of higher learning, unless it is one like Hillsdale College in Michigan, will not alleviate this problem.

    Own any guns you haven't yet shot?

    While my philosophy is to shoot any gun that I own, I do have a few that haven't been fired yet. A couple probably never will be, mainly because I admired the design and workmanship but they aren't in calibers that I usually shoot. Don't really care about shooting the Beretta in .40 S&W since...

    Is your significant other ProGun?

    Very pro-gun. She grew up shooting and hunting (sorta. Wouldn't actually pull the trigger on Bambi's daddy.) with her father. One of our first trips when we started getting serious was to the NRA convention in Nashville. We went through the carry permit class together and she beat most of...

    If Money Didn't Stand In The Way

    Quad 50 mounted on a half-track. Minigun mounted on a 5-ton to replicate a Vietnam-era gun truck. Maybe a tank or two. Guess it would have to be milsurp. :rolleyes:

    Shooting Holiday!

    Before you make a final decision, let me put in a plug for Tennessee (home of Oleg, that should tell you a lot!). Very gun and tourist friendly with lots of ranges, public and commercial, indoor and outdoor. Several years ago, a friend brought some visiting Japanese executives to a local...

    Took a new shooter out

    Great way to start. Now buy her an NRA membership with a subscription to "Woman's Outlook" to keep the enthusiasm growing. http://www.nrapublications.org/woman%27s%20outlook/index.asp

    Good Evening

    Welcome to THR. Great bunch of folks here, friendly faces everywhere. What do you like to shoot and what part of the country do you call home? Oh, yeah, Guiness and .454 Casull ammo. :evil:

    You can get anything you want at Mike's Class III gun shop in Jackson, TN. :D

    New shooters

    Welcome to THR! Hope this is only the first of many such outings. Sounds like everyone had a great time and with not one but two 10mm's, who wouldn't! :D And photos of folks having fun with firearms are always welcome.

    Full auto fun!!!

    But think of the children! The lucky, lucky children. Wish my dad had owned something FA when I was growing up. :(

    Should the 2007 NRA be in Louisiana?

    +1 for New Orleans. I've already spent way too much of my life and money in New York City and San Francisco on business trips. I have no desire to leave any more money in any city/state that blatently violate our Second Amendment rights. Anytime the NRA decides to have the convention in one...
