Mostly, it was not having much money even when they were "cheap". I'm thankful that I got in on what I consider the tail end of Milsurp C&R rifles.

Probably about 8, 12 ga single shot of some kind. In Maine at a Camp on Sabattus. It was a very memorable experience. I was pretty sure that shotguns were for the grown ups...

We recently found the "official" receipt for captured goods from my Dad's Battery Commander for the P38 he brought back. I knew I'd seen it as a kid, but wasn't sure my Mother hadn't "cleaned it up" at some point into the trash can.
My wife is working with her sisters to get her Dad's 14th Air...
A couple of VCP treated gun socks to put a couple of my rifles in after cleaning. I'm working my way around the garage safe cleaning and bagging my old bolt actions.

I recall when the purchase of Cabelas by BPS happened, BPS made a big deal out of how they were going to operate the stores separately...
So much for that. Cabelas is now just another outlet for BPS products and lines. I used to buy a lot of Cabelas clothing because most of their stuff came...
You may be thinking of "Enemies, Foreign and Domestic" which is the first book in a trilogy by Matt Bracken, a former Seal who's been writing for a number of years now.

Like many, I've moved from thinking certain expectations by the State and limits on Citizens were acceptable. I've moved, like many to an absolutist view. The 2A is and says what it is, and our rights are not granted by governments. Additionally, I'm convinced that accommodating any...
I appreciate your efforts, Gunny!
Now I can show my wife that picture and completely debunk her claims that I have "enough" guns. Especially of the Tinker Toy variety.

I don't know if we can expect them on the docket in the next year but challenges to the (IMO) insane laws in NY, CT, NJ, CA and possibly soon, Washington State would be excellent. I'm not a lawyer of in the legal field, but those States are depriving their Citizens of their Constitutional...
I suspect the poster was referring to the "Amazon Effect" which is really making sales via the internet take off from their already impressive level. Actually, I think that if we had a really bad recession/depression, WalMart might actually fare better than many expect. As you point out, their...
I have not, although I've thought about it from time to time. It's one of those things that gets back burnered. I need to look into what's available, what it costs and what it really does for you...
Hopefully there are some with more knowledge on this topic. I'd like to see some of the group...
I picked up an Enfield No.5 MK1 "jungle carbine" on a local hunting site for $225.00, IIRC. Probably 6 - 7 years ago. My son got a High Point .45 for a large bag of dog food from a guy in one of his units.

In most things, I'm of the opinion that we don't need more laws. In many cases it would be an improvement if we started enforcing the laws which are currently in place. Those things said, I've got two safes, where all but our carry guns reside. I do that to try to keep my guns safer, i.e...
