    Weighing the Risks of Armed Defense

    I think that's the biggest one. Best way to come out of a fight unharmed, is not to get in one to begin with.

    Brits: Welcome to America --now go straight to jail

    Water bottles aren't designed to silence a weapon, and unless they're modified to fit and stay in place somehow - they really wouldn't do much good. Now - if you take that water bottle, and use it to build something you could attach to the end of your gun - a case could, and probably would be...

    Do your tactics change with its freezing outside?

    In some of their penetration tests, they actually did one where they placed some heavy denim in front of the target. Some of the HP rounds did in fact fail to expand. I forget which episode it was - but if you poke around, i'm sure you can find it.

    Lemmie know how it turns out. I finally found the ignore button.

    Home invasion foiled/ criminal 0 Homeowner 1

    You suggested that the original term used did not cast the situation in enough of a positive light. Therefor, your suggestion to an alternative phrasing clearly is meant to imply some sort of dramatic effect beyond simply describing the set of events.

    Again, If i ever decided to tear you down personally - there would be absolutely no ambiguity about it. I choose not to - because that's not the kind of place this is.

    Home invasion foiled/ criminal 0 Homeowner 1

    exchange of gunfire is a more "proper" or emotionless description. What you're suggesting is to some how make it more dramatic to somehow encourage sympathy for the pro-2nd cause. Sorry, but I can't stand that crap. Report the facts, move on. That's the media's job - that's what they did here...

    That actually wasn't meant to be an insult towards you. More a statement as to the mentality as a whole. If i decide to insult you - it will be crystal clear

    Cry wolf!

    Guess i'm one of "those" people then. Something about all that NRA literature I used to get about conservation and saving species that are on the verge of extinction back in the late 80s/early 90s must have really sunk in. (If i'm not mistaken they actually mentioned wolves specifically on more...

    Home invasion foiled/ criminal 0 Homeowner 1

    This is apparently a big deal with some of the other minority groups around the country as well. I've heard of a few groups being targeted in different areas at specific times of the month for this same reason. I guess it's somewhat common of a mis-conception?

    Home invasion foiled/ criminal 0 Homeowner 1

    I don't know - perhaps we didn't read the same article - but it seemed pretty damn neutral to me. Do you know what kind of gun was used by the suspects? If perhaps they came in with a ruger blackhawk - and the press decided to twist it around and call that an "assault rifle" then I could see...

    This is why pistol grips on a shotgun don't work...

    lol. The guy obviously knew it was a bad idea, he was careful to try to make sure the gun came back next to his face - and I think even had a moment of second thought before the first round.

    Finally We Know the "Truth": NYT

    Because you're thinking about it from the mindset of a law-abiding gun owner. Legally speaking - you're right. You can't legally go from Chicago to VA buy some guns and bring 'em home with no problems. We're not talking about people doing things legally. We're talking about people finding...

    Cabela's & Bass Pro not buying??

    I think the one here is sort of a crap-shoot. When I was in there recently - they had a Model 37 in well used shape. Was very clearly a working shotgun for a long time - cracks in the stock and all. They wanted $375 for it. Two racks over, Custom Sako on the Vixen short action with a scope for...

    What the deal with Wolf?

    So are Subaru's (or they were at one point), and Hondas were as well. BMWs are from South Carolina or Georgia... It's funny - there's more "foreign" cars made here in the US then american cars - by far.

    Finally We Know the "Truth": NYT

    It is a classic straw sale - yea. But when you say "That would prevent even a strawman from taking advantage of another state." No, It really doesn't. Now - the argument could be made that - if you have someone who's committed to making straw purchases on behalf of someone else, they're going...

    David Spade Donates $100K to Phoenix PD for AR-15s

    So let me get this straight. ARs = form of militarization You = against militarization. You = okay with ARs. See where i'm going with this? There's some conflicting statements there. If ARs are a form of militarization - and you're not okay with the militarizing of police - then by simple...

    Finally We Know the "Truth": NYT

    Let me give you an example. (I've used this example on here before - so some of you may recognize the story). Some years ago - late 90s, maybe 2000-2001 at the latest, when I was living in NY - there was a big story about a gun ring that was broken up. Guy on staten island got busted with a...

    Finally We Know the "Truth": NYT

    Again - you're thinking like a normal person thinks. That's not how the criminal element would operate. The criminal element isn't going to drive 3 hours away to buy a gun at a gun show. The stickup kid from the bad side of town has no interest in going to a gun show or dealing with anybody who...
