    New information on confiscation in New Orleans

    Just got off the phone with the Governor's office here in Georgia. It is the position of Governor Sonny Perdue's administration that if the Georgia National Guard Troops are ordered to confiscate firearms from law abiding citizens, in direct violation of the 2nd Amendment, that's just hunky dory...

    New Orleans Begins Confiscating Firearms (merged w/ "You're all gonna love this one")

    This is bad folks. Very bad. My mind is racing, but I can't think of anything we can do other than piss and moan. Many lessons to be learned from this. I hope the Almighty permits us to learn them quickly enough to make a difference.

    Potential: 2nd Term Bush Revolution

    Well the Founders had some ideas about how to give the states representation at the Federal level. They devised this nifty organization called the Senate, but then a bunch of pure democracy advocates went and screwed that up.

    What is this Bushmaster M4 AR ?

    My opinion is that it is ridiculously overpriced and that you should let them keep it for a few months and pay $850 for it then.

    Just can't love the Springfield XD!

    You got a lemon. The trigger on mine is better than any Glock I've ever handled and is on par with any auto I've ever handled, except for the 1911. Take away the long reset, and it's actually approaching some of the stock 1911 triggers I've felt. Send it back.

    I got slammed by the Wall Street Journal!

    Unfortunately, activists working to remedy this problem have been largely branded as left wing wackos who are bitter about the 2000 election. Jim, I recommend that you trot out your political leanings and put them on display clearly every time you speak or write about this issue. Otherwise...

    Shotgun or "assault" rifle for CQB?

    I believe it was Jim Cirillo who stated that the NYPD stakeout squads often reported multiple failures to stop that resulted in them moving to slugs in their duty guns. I don't have any references handy, and can't recall where else I heard this, but I do remember hearing it several times from...

    Shotgun or "assault" rifle for CQB?

    A rifle beats a shotgun every time, in every way...unless you are defending yourself from a flock of rabid seagulls. Buckshot is considered a mediocre fight stopper by several well respected authorities. A shotgun with slugs is nothing more than a crappy rifle when you get right down to it. With...

    Vote Bush instead of third party

    This is wrong on several levels. This "winning team" argument seems to be the latest attempt by libertarians to try to invoke feelings of guilt and self doubt among Republicans who are not that happy with GW. It's not working guys, and it's getting old. Libertarians also have a hard time...

    Smooth grip panels -- loss of grip?

    I don't have a problem with smooth grips when shooting bare handed. I prefer the slimline checkered wood grips on my carry guns, which are almost always handled bare handed. When shooting with gloves on, I can't do the smooth grip thing, and the slimlines are less than ideal. With gloves on I...

    You have $700.00...

    Nope. Sorry. If you lose the "no upgrade" requirement, you might be able to pick up a springer milspec in the 400-450 range and toss a couple hundred dollars in machined barstock at it. That would get you there. Take it up to 800 and you're definitely in the ballpark. No frills and good...

    You have $700.00...

    Forget it. It aint gonna happen if you and I have the same definition of upgrades and reliable.

    Durability of match triggers in ARs?

    The McCormick is interesting. I'm waiting to hear how they work out in terms of durability. If they seem to be bulletproof, I'm planning to pick up 2. I really like the idea of having a quick change spare in my kit. Nice to be able to switch out in less than a minute. For now I stick with stock...

    What's a "Combat Handgun"?

    I heard this discussion the other day and one of the participants opined that the term "Combat Handgun" was interchangeable with the term "Fools Rifle."

    Lever-action .357 carbine: a good defensive arm?

    That depends entirely on what you are defending and who/what you're defending it from.

    Whats the best 1911 single stack mag?

    7 round Wilsons are the most consistent IMO.
