    Why Didn't You Buy Those C&R's?

    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. Jeff B.

    First shot - How old were you and what was it

    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... Jeff B.

    "Homeowner is armed" sign

    No, not a good idea IMO. Do as some suggested and use that money for cameras. Jeff B.

    Longest Serving WWII/Korea-era weapons on Active Duty?

    I agree... I remember travelling in Khakis in the early 80's. Nice uniform. IIRC, it went out in 1985 or so... Jeff B.

    Looking for a decently priced accurate 9mm

    I've got an HK VP9 which I find to be a very well made, good shooting gun. In fact, the gun is capable of far more than the trigger puller! Jeff B.

    G.I. bring-back Mauser

    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...

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    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. Jeff B.

    Latest visit to Cabela's.

    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...

    Read Unintended Consequences again

    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. Jeff B.

    California gun haters are going to have a field day

    Wouldn't silver be more appropriate? Isn't that what you need to put down blood sucking creatures from the dark side? ;) Jeff B.

    Has anyone changed their position on the 2A?

    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...

    My AR Family photo

    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. Jeff B.

    Should I buy a Glenfield (Marlin) 25 and a Marlin 783 rimfire in a package deal

    Go for it! Seems to be a reasonable deal. Jeff B.

    Now that Kavanaugh is confirmed as a SCOTUS justice what 2nd Amendment cases could come up next?

    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...

    The Gun transaction from Hell.

    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...

    CCW Insurance Coverage

    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...

    Best deal

    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. Jeff B.

    AR15 A2/A3

    I think they're fine, my son insists that mine's "old school". But, I like it... Jeff B.

    First thoughts: don't want guns storage laws, but...

    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...
