    Handicapped license plates

    They do not draw attraction since the plates are common, issued for about any reason. Even though tagged the vehicle might not be driven or occupied by the 'handicapped'. A van with a wheel chair door or special features might stand out somewhat and the driver needs to be aware of the area and...

    US silencer taxes

    Too low, $5 bucks does not cover the paperwork by the BATFE. I am focused on keeping the right to own a silencer. Until recently here in very gun friendly MS state law prohibted silencers for non FFL 3 dealers. I would be concerned any reduction in silencer tax would be transferred to a high tax...

    How have firearms affected your life?

    A previous poster covered my largest impact. I always owned firearms but getting rather serious into collecting and having a carry permit for the past 10 plus years has made me much more aware of the attack on gun rights and what it means.

    Anti-gun Gunnies

    I do not have any class 3 firearms, but love to shoot them when given the chance. Ask those with concerns to name one of the many hundreds of murders they have heard about on the news where a machine gun was used. Spraying down night clubs and mass murder of bad guys by bad guys is a hollywood...

    Favorite Westerns with gun fights ?

    My favorites were basically covered, would add Fire Creek with Jimmy Steward and Henry Fonda for drama and some shootings.

    The Big Soft Underbelly of Gun Rights

    The anti's know that it is like boiling a frog, if they do it slow and hit the city, state and federal level the average person will not feel it as much. My wife is RN and a Doctor was mentioning he wanted a handgun but wasn't sure what type and what laws he had to follow. She had him call me...

    PVC target stand

    I have 2 that look like more like cannonball's with 1x2 strips. I made on wide and one narrow. If it is windy I have holes in the base and stick tent peg in them. I find the upright sections do not need to be very high. Cork

    Pennsylvania gun culture....

    I was raised in PA and have family that remains. The residents I talk to feel it is a gun friendly state but it has much more regulation than in the West and South. The closer to Philly the more liberal. Some of my family members have CWP's but their were local police interviews of neighbors...

    Kates, Nemerov: OUR GREATEST ENEMY - PRO GUN WACKOS

    Lucky, The Corkster agrees with you, maybe the post came out wrong. Talked to pawn shop owner last week,a 17 year old kid came in with a 1911, it had the serial numbers filed down, pawn shop owner called the police and who came and arrested the kid. Went to court, kid was let go. Nothing said...

    Kates, Nemerov: OUR GREATEST ENEMY - PRO GUN WACKOS

    After reading all the posts I put a new NRA sticker on my truck and even added a few bucks to a Brownells and Midway order today. I still think the NRA is misleading it's members about this not being anything new but they are the only vocie that counts. The agencies in implementing laws have...

    Kates, Nemerov: OUR GREATEST ENEMY - PRO GUN WACKOS

    I took the NRA sticker off my truck. I have been giving to the NRA Legal fund but became upset over the bill and will not give any more this year. My family has had terrible experiences with the mental health crowd. The VA labels Vets with post stress to pay for addiction treatment, thousands...

    HELP! I lost my gun!

    All humans are falliable and make mistakes. Pilots run out of fuel and crash, we get off the wrong floors on elevators, take the coffee pot out while it is still dripping, forget to lock a door, most mistakes are just lapses without any consequences. You made a mistake and a honest citzen did...

    What makes a shotgun so much better for home defense than a 5.56 semi auto?

    I like a pump shotgun, given a choice. Still one needs to check the pattern at a range with the ammo you load it for defense with. My 18 inch mossie 500 with no 4 buck at close range is still tight, actually could take a hostage shot inside a room. I added sights, flashlight and am thinking...

    Stack-On security cabinet

    I have a bunch of the stack on cabinets from Academy, I bolt them together and to the wall. Added a regular padlock to each one. I keep my collection in a gun room which is okay but not super secure. I did it to organize the collection by country, keep dust off the rifles, and keeps visitors...

    Teen shoots cops with WWII "sniper" rifle...

    I have experienced the pain of a child going into addiction. I locked down everything, even hunting knifes. It was hell. Never had any fear of something like this, I was very concerned about depression. Even with access to a weapon or a thousand weapons nothing justifies cold blooded murder...

    U.S. Government wants to buy 92,000,000 rounds of 7.62 X 39

    Wonder how your taxpayer bought ammo will get expended? A bullet has no brain. The Hamas dudes in the Gaza are burning lots of 7.62x39, it comes from somewhere. If I thought that we could control it's usage against bad guys I would feel much better. Good news is that once production increases...

    A group of men threatend to Sodomize me tonight.

    Take it seriously, male rape is on the rise, especially in situations like you noted. Once raped they know almost 100% of young male victims, who are also robbed and beaten will never go to LE out of shame. Makes it a perfect crime.

    NRA e-mail : "The truth about the NICS improvement act"

    Here in MS it only takes a few hours to have your lawyer take a request to a judge and have someone in your family declared a threat to themselves and/or others following a sucide attempt or serious threat. Normally occurs to force a depressed adult addict/drunk into treatment while they are in...

    inheriting handguns and registering them??

    Was your handgun really registered to your FIL in PA, or did he just purchase it post 1968 or the more recent NCIS check. It is your now, nothing is needed.
