    Defense against dogs......

    pepper spray has worked for me out jogging one evening at twilight, I came around the bend of my surburban block to find my neighbor had left her gate unlocked, & two very large dogs of a breed known as a Presa Canario were out in the front yard. see this link for an idea of what they are...

    Why No Affordable Dble Rifles?

    Why No Affordable Dble Rifles?

    certainly Sir, women definitely count in my universe. Grown-ups is a fine correction; thanks for doing so gently. However, when I think on double rifles & those who use them, & write on them, men generally come to mind. Meant no offense to anyone, man, woman, or child.

    Why No Affordable Dble Rifles?

    Nicely said. Comments like "'Cuz only people with money to burn go on safari?" are a tale as old as time, the purview of the nattering knitting circle or the nosy neighbor on the other side of the fence. Grown men should have enough self-insight to realize this comment comes from envy, & is...

    Easier/safer caliber for beginners?

    good thread just wanted to say thanks to Potatohead for asking a question I have been thinking about, as well as to those who answered with some good thoughts. Have been thinking about reloading for quite some time, never got around to it, then got caught with low supply during the recent...

    Smallest snubbie?

    S&W 642 rides in a front pocket of pants or jeans comfortably, using a pocket holster. So much so, that you forget it is there. Makes for a good option for those who choose to home carry. I think to get appreciably smaller, you have to go down to a .380 or .32 autoloader. Haven't much...

    Laughing at the so called shortage.

    i think this is the proper mindset, "I give to those who need and hook up those that are polite". that is proper, & giving back to those in our fellow shooting community. i don't think what hueyville is doing is wrong. in a market w/ revved up demand, prices must rise to balance until...

    it was Abe Lincoln "How then shall we perform it? At what point shall we expect the approach of danger? By what means shall we fortify against it? Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant, to step the Ocean, and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia and Africa...
