I agree with hso. The only person I ever knew who rabidly anti, not luke warm, not ambivalent but, a proud supporter of HCI kind of anti had an epiphany and a total one hundred and eighty degree change of heart about a week after his little girl was born. He came to me asking to help him...

In this case it wasn't the seller who got bent out of shape, it was the low baller.

If I have an item listed for sale at 650 and you offer me 350, you're lowballing me. That's just a little better than half of my asking price. Further, if the gun is 500 new, why are you bothering the seller of the used gun, go buy the new one. You will still have to pay the 50 shipping and 30...

Sure, could you post your daily schedule for the next couple of months so those people with children too young to walk or walk very far can contact you to act as their valet and carry the kids for them. That's really considerate of you.

As I read your post I can't help but notice it's almost entirely based on supposition, conjecture, hearsay and guesswork with absolutely no evidence what-so-ever.

Don't forget, that's guns which they could trace. Last I read the overwhelming majority of weapons recovered at Mexican crime scenes were wholly untrace able. The logic is as flawed as the stats they're using. It's akin to finding a hundred stolen cars in a warehouse and 99 of them have...

I find it interesting how many people are upset over children in strollers. Your gripe is with the show organizers and their choice of a) venue or b) number of tables at said venue or c) placement of tables at said venue. Crying about children being toted in strollers is, in my opinion, a...

I have an AR-10 that throws 308 brass about 15 feet behind me and to my right. I don't think it's indicative of a broken rifle.

You'll forgive me, I hope, if I put your inability to feel safe around the human populace much, much lower on my list of priorities than my ability to be a free man. If you don't have a problem taking a safety course to exercise a right then, by all means, do so. Just don't project your...

Right, because obviously if anyone questions the specific actions of a specific police officer they must be anti-law enforcement? Think, just for a moment, about how silly that assertion sounds.

Texas has no legal provision for open carry unless you are LEO with or without a license. It's just one of many very silly weapons laws we have.

Prosecuted for what? I didn't see anything in Tim's post suggesting the OP break the law. It isn't as if people who used to do drugs and now don't are prohibited from owning guns. Ummm .... people who don't do drugs aren't prohibited persons. I'm intentionally ignoring the rest of your...

One thing I never saw you mention is whether or not to the best of your knowledge he is currently a drug user. You said he's had problems his whole life but, does he currentlyhave a drug use problem? There are many people on this very board who once used illegal drugs and are now productive...

Come to Texas, no income tax, decent real estate prices and teachers are one area where employment opportunities are on the rise. Plus we have better Mexican food than I ever found in MD(B-more, Annapolis, Crofton, Bowie), DC (Connecticut and Van Ness) or Virginia (Manassas). Frankly, I don't...

Two things here. First there are many times and places where a sweater would look downright, well, odd. Second, I really think, and many agree with me, that carrying ANY gun in the waistband without a holster is sub-optimal, at best. Particulary on a 1911 which should be carried cocked and...

Brilliant, that's the kind of tips and tricks I came here for. Thanks.

See? I knew somebody would talk some sense into me. I do truly appreciate the "reality check" and the helpful replies, I'll stop and get a hack saw on the way home.

The only reason I suggested the arm saw as opposed to the hack saw was to save the half an hour raking back and forth. If I were going to use a hacksaw I'd need to buy one anyway so I thought getting a metal cutting blade for the arm saw would be just as good a deal. Is there a compelling...

I think I have to second the notion that if it's time to bury them, it's time to dig them up. When Ike hit the gulf coast and Houston (a veritable bastion of gun ownership) was mostly shut down or unihabitable for a few days (and up to a few weeks in many parts) there were no confiscations...

What do I need to cut a barrel down on a shotgun that has a vent rib? I have a radial arm saw, I'm sure I'll need a special blade for it, any suggestions. Any smiths out there have advice for dealing with the vent rib so it doesn't look shoddy when the product is finished? Finally, aside...
