    Are we being selfish?

    Of course. The very notion of asserting and defending our rights as INDIVIDUALS implies self-interest. Now, does the defense of our rights have any negative impact on the rights of others? Not only no, but HELL no. In fact, quite the contrary. The fact that there are people like you and...

    Would you feel undergunned carrying a snub nose .38 special?

    If I had no other choice, carrying a snubbie is better than going nekkid. If I did have a choice, there is no question I would NOT choose to carry a snubbie. There are too many superior choices.

    Talk to me about the Garand...

    I shoot the hell out of mine. Had the barrel replaced a couple of years ago to 7.62. I have lost count of how many rounds I have put through this thing. I absolutely LOVE it.

    Taurus' new PT1911

    Yeah, but who buys a 1911 and doesn't tinker with it? Trigger pull is pretty easy to clean up.

    Somebody's got our backs

    Clearly you have given this a lot of thought. Since you express an intent to get training, a 9mm automatic is an excellent choice. If you and your wife were not intending to get training, a .38 revolver would be a better choice, being somewhat more simple to use for beginners. In any case...

    What is THE American handgun?

    The SAA may have been in all the cowboy movies, but the 1911 helped free the world.

    My C&R FFL came in. What do you consider to be a C&R eligable handgun must have?

    The Order Of The Purple Thumb

    Yep. If you are always paying very close attention when closing the bolt, it won't bite you. Just don't let your attention slip.

    General, Surplus ammo rules?

    For 8mm, the Yugo brass-cased ammo is great stuff, and a steal at $1.50 or so a box.

    Good gun article in local magazine.

    That was very well written. The author has a very easy, conversational style, and except for citing a stat from the blissninnies, kept the article completely apolitical. It would be good if some national magazines would pick this up.
