    How does the Colorado marijuana laws affect gun owners?

    I'm a little lost by your post. Marijuana is regulated and prosecuted at the Federal level, and has been prosecuted before despite legalization at the State level (see Gonzales vs. Raich).

    How does the Colorado marijuana laws affect gun owners?

    I thought that I should preface this by stating that I'm neither a marijuana user nor a resident of Colorado, so I'm asking more out of curiosity than anything. These laws open up so many questions for gunowners, both in Colorado and elsewhere. On the surface there are questions about the...

    PDW's... FN PS90, M1 Carbine, AR pistol or something else?

    Thank's for your post on page 2 mac66. I've been wanting to hear from people who use Ar pistols with full length tubes on how happy they are with that setup. I'm building one right now specifically for a truck gun. Pulling out a tape measure I've found that I can fit one perfectly under my...

    What do you think is the worst guntrope in media?

    Movies are getting better. They must be hiring more vets or something as thechnical advisors. It seems like every 80's and 90's action movie featuring "SEALS", Delta" or some other such representation of special forces makes me grimmace. I was watching that Harrison Ford movie Air Force One...

    CNN Oppinion Piece: Gun Control is not the Answer

    Same here. CNN tends to group their op ed writers into their "proper" castes and have them focus on only those things. It seems that LZ is usually writing about African American/Gay issues while Reuban Navarette is always a one trick pony for illegal immigration. I certainly wouldn't have seen...

    ATF Proposed New Rules for NFA Trusts

    Well I'm glad that we got it cleared up that this was an order, carried out at the behest of the President, which was the point of my original post. But I don't agree with your position that it isn't a validation of EO Alarmism (I should copyright that term) that other executive actions were...

    ATF Proposed New Rules for NFA Trusts

    Man, you're bending over backwards to abstract the obvious; the Obama Administration has ordered the BATFE to enact these new rule changes, and these rule changes have significantly impacted many lawful gunowners. Both the import ban and the NFA trust rules change are nefarious in their own way...

    ATF Proposed New Rules for NFA Trusts

    Wow Frank, that's some impressive bit of lawyering. Which is why I said Except, we're not simply talking about an action taken by an Executive Department. We're talking about actions taken by the President directing policy within those departments, which is ironically what you just...

    ATF Proposed New Rules for NFA Trusts

    What? If this has nothing to do with Executive Orders, why did the White House release a press statement... saying this and the import ban was done by Executive Order? "Today, the Obama administration announced two new common-sense executive actions to keep the most dangerous firearms out of...

    ATF Proposed New Rules for NFA Trusts

    I was really hoping all the "calm down and put your tin foil hats back on because there's nothing Obama can affect with EO's" people were right. Alas, that's not the case. Maybe the worrying about EO's were warranted after all.

    Disturbing societal trend (Was I out of line?)

    I found it rather ironic that immediatly after repeating the 4 Firearm Safety Rules over and over again in Marine basic training, we proceeded to dry fire our weapons at a 55 gallon drum with targets painted all over, none of which we actually "intended to shoot". And our fingers weren't off of...

    russian capture k98

    To reiterate FPGT, numbers matching bolts and receivers are rare (and usually seen as dubious) in RC's, from what I understand. I bought a real nice RC a couple of years ago for around 400, and was troubled when I got it in and the numbers didn't match. But apparently, from what people more...

    AR:Constitutional Carry will be the Law in Arkansas

    Baz, the 5-73-120 rewrite is the sticking point that Denny Altes and the rest of the Constitutional Carry advocates are claiming makes Arkansas a de-facto Constitutional Carry state. The rewrite inserts the condition that a person has to have the intent to unlawfully employ a handgun against...

    AR:Constitutional Carry will be the Law in Arkansas

    Dustin McDaniel is just another anti gun lawyer creating ambiguity where there is none, and I really hope he's voted out come election time. For example from the letter; "Left unclear, however, is what is meant by 'travel beyond the county in which the person lives.'" I don't even know...

    NFA SBS hack?

    Ah yeah I can see that in the pics now that I know to look for it. Pretty inventive. I didn't know sigs used a buffertube system for bolt return.

    NFA SBS hack?

    Atlantic Firearms is selling a "Sig Pistol" with what appears blatantly to be a stock, albeit a short one. http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/component/virtuemart/shipping-rifles/sig-sauer-p556-classic-pistol-with-sb15-pistol-stabilizing-brace-detail.html?Itemid=0 How is this possible? They...

    So when can I expect my kid to start shooting?

    I know every child is different, but what's a ballpark age that you feel children can use a firearm responsibly? My father is buying my oldest (3 1/2 yrs) a Henry .22, and I'm wondering how long it'll probably have to set in the safe. At his current age I just don't think he can process the 4...

    The Rifle on the Wall - A Leftist Argument in Favor of Gun Rights

    Ok, we should probably reign this thread in before it gets closed because there is some interesting concepts in here. The tribalism and rural/urban explanations are pretty excellent, IMO. In the spirit of balance, let me see if I can make enemies of everyone for a minute with a quick...

    The Rifle on the Wall - A Leftist Argument in Favor of Gun Rights

    Red Herring. I didn't call anyone a Marxist or an ideologue. I simply made an educated guess as to why (not if) American Progressives tend to support greater gun control. Let me put it another way; In American politics, it is the political arm of the American Left that primarily and almost...
