getting "proper authorities" to approve gun transactions? Sometimes gun owners are their own worst enemy. Jaenak, why would one want to have the so-called "proper authorities" approve or not approve a lawful Minnesotan their unalienable right to sell, trade or borrow a firearm? I am a law...

Served as a US Navy Seabee from 1972 to 1976. I was a Utilitiesman, meaning a pipefitter. I worked in water treatment. Also worked on boilers and in fueling operations. Wintered over at McMurdo Station, Antarctica in 1974, hence my screen name here, OAE(Old Antarctic Explorer). I really...

One can rant and rave about California microstamping. Soon, complacent gun owners will be able to do the same concerning the Massachusetts microstamping when it becomes law as it's already in the works there. Teddy and Arnold working with their closely knit family are eventually going to get...

Remington Nylon .22 I have owned one since 1975 and it is the magazine fed model. I purchased it brand new while a Navy Seabee stationed in Charleston, SC for the extremely great price of $34.99 out the door at a local K-Mart. Those were the days of reasonably priced and well made firearms...

BUG, true story Reading these posts of carrying a BUG made me think of an NRA article from some years ago. This particular story is also on the North American Arms website. Without a BUG, this man who was walking to work one morning would have most likely been killed if he had only carried...

Presidential hopefuls score card on Sarah Brady, NICS and Gun Control: Republican Rudy G. former mayor of NYC: Never saw a gun control law he didn't like. Republican Arizona Senator John McCain: Same as Rudy G. Republican Mitt Romney, MA Governator: Same as the above two Republicans...

For everyone who thinks that the Republican Party and Sarah Brady are not friends, please read the following from 1983. In her own words, Sarah Brady praised conservative Republican Ronald Reagan and then New York liberal Democrat Congressman Chuck Schumer in her article. Hmm...it seems to me...

Here is an opinion piece by Jesse Jackson as published in the March 13th edition of the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper. Read this for some real bias coming from a leading civil rights activist, yet a staunch gun control advocate. My take on this is that Reverend Jackson always equates guns with...

A civilian United States citizen can't purchase a handgun in most states until they are 21 years of age. Purchases of handgun ammunition is reserved for civilians 21 and over, too. If one is a member of the armed forces of the United States, one can be issued a military pistol and pistol...

I'm so happy I could just ! Gun owners and American citizens that believe that the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution is just as viable and important as all of the other amendments in the "Bill of Rights" can feel pretty good today. The Washington, DC ban of owning and having a...

Hey rickomatic, you have got the right idea, roll back every gun law to 1933. No compromise and restore our full Second Amendment rights. Is it going to happen? I would like to think so, but with the "sensible gun control" philosophy of many politicians in both mainstream political parties, I...

NICS an unconstitutional reality Making the NICS better, nicer and more user friendly is what many including the NRA want to do. Well, if one believes that the NICS is unconstitutional, why would one want to improve it at American citizen/taxpayer expense? NICS is another TOTALITARIAN...

I received this in an email newsletter(www.bizarrenews.com)I subscribe to just this morning. It is a news story supposedly from the Detroit Free Press. If the story is true, then this is a black eye for all permitted carry folks, no matter which state you live in. The anti's are going to make...

Car Knocker, here is what I emailed to friends and family today concerning the X-Ray security now instituted at the Phoenix airport to give you my answer your question. oae :banghead:

Guns, why? The short and sweet The word smiths that eloquently write wonderful prose about guns, gun ownership, freedom and citizenship should read this very short and to the point sentence from the president of the Minnesota Vietnam Veterans Motorcycle Club. I have never met this fellow...

Yes, it's not the 1960's when kids, parents and our country took responsibility. Presently, we have the "Nanny State". Let's blame the toy for the bad things that can and do happen when they are not used in the manner intended. The young person using the toy in an incorrect way should not be...

Toy Guns, approved by Roy Rogers Yep, realistic toy guns are dangerous, thats for sure. Just look at all the mayhem that was caused by kids with the "Roy Rogers Shooter Hat" in this TV commercial from the early 1960's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOeg5LqZyCo oae:neener:

Here is some interesting news from Gander Mountain, the large sporting goods retailer headquartered in St. Paul, MN. It seems their company has now made the decision to quit selling new toy guns that actually look like real firearms in all of their retail stores in the United States. Wow...

Barrel(s) spinning Hello Jorg, You'll have to overlook my less than perfect choice of words for the BMF Activator questions as I've only been handling and shooting firearms for only 40 years. I should have said the BMF Activator seems to be able to make a normally equipped one barrel .22...

As I was paging through my new 2007 Cabela's Shooting and Reloading catalog on page 69 of this catalog there is a piece of equipment that I have never seen. It is called a BMF Activator. As stated in the catalog about the BMF Activator it is an inovative crank that one attaches to the trigger...
