    Federal Judge Rules Women Should Be Eligible for the Draft

    Does questioning the ability to handle a 125# fire extinguisher on an aircraft carrier count as something to do with sizes and weapons?

    Kel-Tec P32 for Carry?

    I have a P-32 that I used to carry with a 10 round magazine; it never failed at the range. I hit better with the Tomcat (because of the wider grip and the added Pierce pinky extension), and now that I have found a OTW holster for my Tomcat it is my every day carry. The 32 ACP not a...

    32acp or 380acp?

    The 32 ACP not a "man-stopper", but it has its place -- especially if you can hit your target more than one, two, or five times. Since a 32 ACP is not going expand reliably, or impart hydrostatic shock, I figure an FMJ round is going to cause the same damage as stabbing the attacker with an 8...

    What would be your reaction/thoughts on...

    In 1990, the Democratic Congress forced George "read my lips" Bush to sign the (then) largest ever deficit reduction bill, among its many terms were: • the income tax rate on individuals making over $50,000 was increased • the wage base for Medicare was increased from $51,300 to $125,000 • a...

    Are We Fighting Gun Control Wrong?

    Yes, I should have worded that more carefully. The Founding Fathers set up a wonderful systems of checks and balances. To completely control the FEDERAL government is as humanly impossible as anything can get. That being said, 100% of the power of each office goes to the candidate with 51% of...

    Are We Fighting Gun Control Wrong?

    Can you name any Pro-Life Democrats? According to Democrats for Life, one in three Democrats are Pro-Life. Assuming something like that is true, how many elected or appointed Democrats should there be versus how many are there? The very fact that there are groups that have to identify...

    Are We Fighting Gun Control Wrong?

    I agree. I remember watching the Kefauver Hearings with my father (not that I wanted to, but I had no choice) and during a break they put on a skit where they presented two candidates running for office. Candidate A said: Vote for me and I'll be your voice in Washington. I'll make sure you're...

    Mexican Carry Strikes Again

    Criminals do Mexican Carry because it is harder to ditch a gun and holster while running to avoid arrest than it is to ditch the gun -- also, a holster shows intent. If you happen to get caught with a gun in your belt, the fall back story is you found it in a trash can and were carrying it to...

    Anybody have experience with a Beretta 85?

    GREAT pistol series!!! The model 87 (.22LR with shorter barrel) is accurate, but not as accurate as a target pistol; the model 81 (.32 ACP) is second best in accuracy. All versions are harder to rack than they should be (but that's not an issue with the model 86). NEVER had an FTE or FTF with...

    mousegun caliber question

    I agree with MedWheeler up there, dealing with a victim is way different than deal with a cop. Even a win does you no good if the victim puts a .22 into your butt -- you have to go to the hospital to get it out. That leads to a bunch of difficult questions from a cop in the ER. That being said...
