    wouldn't it be great

    You prevent that by securing the borders and arming the populace.

    .223/5.56 Ammo Prices

    Watch the Guatemalan stuff...while it's excellent and clean ammo, the lot conditions vary widely. Battlepacks okay IF they're sealed, but I've seen mid-90's lots in boxes that range from polished brass to some that look like they were under saltwater, corroded like an old battery. Which, as...

    Armed men approach your parked car

    If you're in a car, you're in control of at least a ton of metal that can move. If people would stop panicking and screaming and rememeber that, we might see more stories of "victim runs over attempted carjacker" and less of this.

    Women friendly gun store

    Thank you. :) And yeah, I always liked the Mission look myself, it's clean and makes you relax...and women that I know, at least, seem to like it. It's how my home is. All Frank Lloyd Wright stuff and 1930's angular/stylized posters for airplanes, zeppelins and such in warm colors. The other...

    Maine Says "No Thanks" to Federal Real ID Act

    Well, you're in Illinois, which isn't a free state, so it might be a matter of perspective. MY state, which is a free state, allows you the option to have your photo and social security number expunged entirely from your driver's license record. If you do that, you have to bring a birth...

    Saw a Saiga 12 in action this weekend

    My thoughts are based on private ownership. Seems utterly impractical in such a role - when are you ever going to lop off twenty rounds from two boxes at a home invader? Katrina. Watts riots. Can happen again. Disasters happen. Mob attack to get your generator/store contents/prescription...

    Sleazy Gun Stores

    My favorite where-have-you-been-for-the-past-20-years line: "No, but I can order that from a distributor.", and then quote an obscene price. Yes, thank you, SO CAN I. There's this thing called an "internet"...

    Women friendly gun store

    If you want an interior decor that's "sportsmanlike" but still tasteful to all parties, go for the 1930's California Arts & Crafts/Mission Lodge look. Seriously. It works for Cabelas. Those squared-off hammered copper lamps with the amber mica or amber stainedglass shades, straight-sided...

    **Need help. Very IMPORTANT, Involves rape***

    Hospital, yes, QUICKLY. Their "rape kit" generally includes stuff like, well...to take samples for pathogen tests and DNA evidence, then to try to flush and sterilize the area as best as possible, in case the rapist was carrying something. It also includes a morning-after pill to make sure...

    Coming after Florida

    You'd think Wilma would have taught some people a lesson, that when the power and cellphones are out, you're ON YOUR OWN, but nooooo.....

    Florida: Sun Sentinel article on Conceal Carry

    The Miami Herald is the better regional paper. The Sentinel has gotten infected with people who write from the "guns are icky" suburban gated community soccer-parents helpless sheep perspective.

    You Won't Believe Who Is Ruining Gun Collecting

    If people are gouged, they won't use those services anymore. That's the best thing about the web, you're not limited by geographic choice. People will choose whomever is offering the best deal, and the gougers will either change their ways or vanish. The marketplace will solve.

    .223/5.56 Ammo Prices

    Last time they even had WWB in stock, it was about $6-something for a box of 20. Surplus you can still get cheaper. Sportsman's Guide still had some 720rd cans of Radway Green M855/SS109 for $169.

    Hah...Red Dawn is on SPIKE tonight...

    Demolition Man is becoming FRIGHTENINGLY accurate as time passes. Including one of Dennis Leary's best rants ever:

    What presidential candidate are you leaning towards?

    Racist much, Realgun? :scrutiny:

    I must vent!

    Lesson there. Don't leave your valuable stuff out of your sight. That hasn't changed in THOUSANDS of years. Leave it, someone will take it. I'm sure people five thousand years ago left something bulky outside a shop for "just a second" and someone took it. Thieves are. Period. If you're that...

    Women friendly gun store

    Side note, if you want to have coffee in a store, spring for a good coffeepot, good coffee, and an airpot to keep it in. A grungy 1970's-era Mr. Coffee boiling tar all day and a few dusty mugs doesn't cut it.

    What presidential candidate are you leaning towards?

    If the Republicans put up someone like Gulianai or McCain :barf: , then, on the Dem side, Bill Richardson certainly doesn't look bad at all.

    What Carbine is the most fun?

    Oh yes. Everyone I've seen fire one gets a big grin. I love mine. No recoil, comfortable, not noisy...I suppose it might get boring to keep putting holes in the same place again and again. :D
