    PBS collecting "Gun Stories"

    Saw this on another website and wanted to pass it along. Apparently, PBS is collecting stories on guns, both "good" and "bad" with the bad apparently winning. Here's a link if you have something you want to contribute. http://www.gunstories.org/gunstories/home I saw the "original"...

    Terry v. Ohio versus Arizona v. Johnson - An expansion of Police Powers

    A recent thread about the January SCOTUS decision in Arizona v. Johnson, was closed, in part, because it seemed, IMHO, that folks were a little confused over the "new" SCOTUS ruling. Prior to this SCOTUS decision, under the auspices of a "Terry Stop" an officer had to have an articulable...

    Poll / "New" website

    I don't know if this is new info or not, but I just became aware of a website named "Opposing Views." It seems to be a legitimate attempt to represent both sides of various issues, and of course there is a section on guns. Besides the poll on concealed carry on campus, there seems to be an...

    Colt Python Question/Resources

    I am thinking about buying an "investment" gun, an early model Python and need info on the correct/original grips. I have searched the internet and other sources, and looked at similar guns for sale from the same period for some clues, but I haven't been able to find anything specific or...

    Knife for Flight Suit thigh pocket

    I am looking for information on knives that will fit the left inside thigh pocket of the standard flight suit. Also any information on the "standard" or "recommended" knife from any of the armed services that use flight suits would be appreciated as well. It can be a folder, but I would like...

    Condo common areas

    Got a question for all of the knowledgeable folks here: My girlfriend owns a condo, which, like most, has "common areas" that are part of the condo and for which she has to pay maintanence fees. The question is whether those common areas are considered part of her property for the purposes...

    Chicago police "slow down"

    I saw this article and thought it was interesting not necessarily because of the alleged "slow down" nor do I wish to appear to be "cop bashing" in any way. However, I thought it interesting that last year (2007) the police supposedly confiscated over 10,000 firearms in a city that has basically...

    Arguments for "shall issue" versus "may issue"

    Recently I had a conversation with one of our State Senators about our current system of getting a concealed carry permit. While we are a "may issue" state, the reality of the situation is that the police chief is a big "anti" and almost never issues permits. I think he has issued a whopping 5...

    Pot grown in National Forrest by violent Mexican gangs

    I don't know if this is the correct location for this, but here goes. The issue of concealed carry in National Parks has been a topic of discussion here and in general, with many against it (including some law enforcement officials within the National Parks system) saying there was no need as...

    Clarification of Hawaii law

    This is in response to a post originating in the Strategies and Tactics forum, which was closed so I couldn't respond to there. Mods, feel free to move this as necessary. I am only posting this to clarify what I believe to have been an incorrect statement about the relative ease of brininging...

    Charles Daly

    I have been looking at some Miroku manufactured Charles Daly shotguns (O/U) and need a little help from the experts in figuring out something. When I look at the Blue Book of Guns, it mentions that the Superior model (Not the current Superior II) only has the knob grip. However, I have seen...

    Poll on medical website

    I was cruising some of the medical sites I frequent and came across this poll: http://www.medpagetoday.com/Surveys/##ayk Since most of the readers were medical folks, I suspected that the results and comments would be anti-gun. Imagine my surprise when I saw the results and that the...

    Concealed Carry Tragedy

    I am relatively new here at THR, so I hope I am not doing anything incorrectly for my first new thread. If inadvertently I do, I apologize in advance. I see that another thread on the issues relating to talking to the police after an "incident" has been closed. I also understand that the...
