    WI: AB 586 - Any news?

    I'm wondering what some of my fellow Wisconsinites are hearing about AB 586, the youth hunting w\mentor bill. It was in the queue to be voted on at the end of January when Lazich added a lame amendment at the last minute that caused it to be sent back to the joint committee on finance. I spoke...

    Failure of Canadian Gun Control

    It looks like the new PM is going to get rid of the long gun registry. http://www.thestar.com/NASApp/cs/ContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&call_pageid=971358637177&c=Article&cid=1140006066135 Politicians making the right choices with regard to "gun control"??? I'm not...

    WI: Barrett unveils anti-violence proposals

    Goodness no Cosine it's exactly as AJ Dual stated, nothing but political grandstanding. It's just another page out of the demented anti-'s standard playbook. Just a try to claim the moral high ground after defeating those knuckle dragging gun nuts (again.) Unfortunately there are alot of...

    WI: Barrett unveils anti-violence proposals

    Don't put it past them Kevlarman! :D When you're dealing with a half-witted gerbil you can't really be surprised by the next thing that comes out of its mouth. Write him a letter as a "concerned citizen" and see if you can get him and his braintrust to include it in the legislative proposal...

    Weapons in the Grand Canyon

    MDG1976: If you are going there in March you won't be going to The North Rim unless you plan on skiing there! :D The North Rim is 1400 feet higher than The South Rim and gets tons of snow. They typically close it in late October and it doesn't open again until sometime in May. When I did...

    Weapons in the Grand Canyon

    MDG1976: To my knowledge you can't have firearms in any National Park. National Forest yes, National Park no. I'd guess CCW is probably not going to be allowed. Here's the quote from a park services site...

    Baseball - Congress - why?

    Yup. A breakdown in these programs might cause the subjects to start getting restless. With more time on their hands some might just start taking an interest in what those little critters are up to out in D.C. I imagine that the prospect of looking out their office windows at a scene similiar...

    Thoughts on a millsurp rifle

    Great thread...and timely as well. I sent off the app for my C&R license a bit over a month ago and would be asking the same questions. Once I get it, the first item on my list is going to be a No4Mk1 Enfield. The stocks on most of the rifles that I've seen are in ok to what I would call poor...

    Hulls worth reloading?

    I was figuring on buying two cases of 12 and two cases of 20 to get my son and I thru the season and seed the reloading process with hulls. At the price for the group buy thru my club the difference per shell (STS vs. GC) comes out to a bit less than 6 cents. That's pretty close to your 4...

    Hulls worth reloading?

    Dave: I found this thread on a search and in the interest of conserving resources I thought I'd ask a related question here as opposed to starting another thread... :) In terms of hull re-use is it worth paying a roughly 50% premium per case for Remington STS Target loads as opposed to...

    Rem. 1100 - Forend question

    I have a 1990 vintage Remington 1100 LT-20 Special. I needed to shorten the LOP for my son so rather than commit an act of sacrilege and cut off the nice english stock I bought a Remington youth size stock and a new forend to match. (He wanted camo.) I bought genuine Remington parts direct...

    Pournelle on TSA

    Double yep. As long as the Super Bowls keep rolling and the Starbucks keeps flowing (our modern form of bread and circuses), the government will continue all of its training courses in the interest of making us all good and productive subjects, err I mean citiizens. If all of this isn't the...

    Pournelle on TSA

    The closest thing I know of to his original post is here. Earlier today I checked the web via google and couldn't find the original post nor was it cached by google. He took them off the server sometime after he posted them this morning. I'd like to read his original comments as well...

    Pournelle on TSA

    I don't know the details. All that he re-posted regarding Sunday was what is described here. It really struck me as odd that he would have taken down his original comments after "being told in no uncertain terms" to do so. Awhile ago he posted some other comments about the TSA here followed...

    Pournelle on TSA

    Jerry Pournelle must be on the TSA "special treatment" list. I'm sure it's not profiling. :rolleyes: He had another experience with them this past weekend. He originally posted something about the TSA on Sunday that he later removed with this comment: There's more here and later in the...

    NRA ArmsCare Plus insurance

    I've got a friend ;), who has exceeded the maximum amount of firearms coverage on his State Farm homeowners insurance. He can get more coverage at a price of $1.54/100 but he has to itemize his firearms for the policy (including serial numbers.) He's searched this forum and read John Ross'...
