    Britain grapples with surge in Knife attacks

    Gun giveaway! I wasn't trying to advocate a 'rapid rearming' of the population. I was more trying to point out that people WILL find away to do grievous bodily harm to one another. Punishing criminals would be a good start.

    Britain grapples with surge in Knife attacks

    Just found this article on Yahoo. Strange, but the article totally fails to make any kind of statement about how tough the gun laws are in Britain. Just how 'fashionable' carrying a knife is. Sigh. greg

    Pump action .223?

    Not pretty Hey, I never said it was pretty. It was the price and just general 'what do we have here' factor that caught my attention. I might go try to handle one...I have T-rex type arms, so I am not sure how a pump gun would fit me anyway's. I doubt I would be as quick with it as I am...

    Pump action .223?

    I was flipping through the Big 5 catalog this weekend, and they had a sale announcement for a Romanian PAR-3...looked kind of like an AK/SKS, but it had a 10-round magazine, and was pump action. I've never seen anything like it, and did a quick search on here but couldn't find anything. I...

    More new calibers?!!??!?! 300 and 338 RCM

    While cruising around Hornady's website, trying to figure out why someone would need a .257 Roberts or 7mm-08, or .25-06 Light Magnum load, I found another 'NEW for 2008' article. Ruger and Hornady are taking the case they use for the Ruger .375, and jimmying it up to make two new COMPACT...

    what happened? glock 22 for deer

    More familiarity Mr. Stephen A. Camp, who used to post frequently on here(but I don't remember seeing lately) used to post pictures of several deer he took with his pistols, including several with a 9mm, so your choice of caliber is probably not the issue. Mr. Camp used to say he would not...

    two deer down

    Mmmm... I'll bet that little button-buck will be tasty-tasty. I am so jealous of people that get to shoot more than one deer a year. Of course, since my ONE tag has gone unfilled the last few years, I guess it's a moot point for me to complain about. Nice deer, sir. greg

    Define a BG...

    Can o' Worms. Well much like Love, BG probably means many things to many people. Since I'm bored, I'll give it a go for me. Well...breaking the law doesn't do it for. Heck...I break the law. I speed in my truck, change lanes without a turn signal. Two days ago, I forgot to put a little...

    Is this really what tasers were meant for?

    Please! Please don't think I'm defending the chuckle head in the video. He should have manned up, taken his ticket and gone and cried to the judge. Except the 40-year old guy that died from being tased at the airport in Canada... In the case of a non-violent offender like this, yes...

    Is this really what tasers were meant for?

    His own rules Glad I'm not the only one up at this hour. By his departments own rules, the taser is to be used only when lesser or equal force has been ineffective. In this case, the officer jumper right to his taser, because it was the easiest thing for him to do. And, so what if the...

    Is this really what tasers were meant for?

    I didn't see a post about this story yet, but it made me shake my head enough I thought I would post it here: I have stated before MANY times, that I respect the hell out of anyone who can wear the uniform and carry the shield to be a polcie officer. Poopy Poopy job sometimes. I know for a...

    Teton County Id: Family Shocked, Outraged after Deputy Shoots Pet Dog in their Yard

    Ummm...wow. If the one side being told right now is the true side of the story, someone just made a lot of money, and that whole police department needs to be replaced. I guess I still have my Navy mentality about some things. It could just be one bad apple in the bunch, but if these folks...

    .270 or 30-06. What is the difference between the two?/which is better?

    Practical Like TCB said, .30-06 has a bit more flexibilty. You won't find a 55gr Accelerator load in .270. If you are PLANNING on elk, then .30-06 is the route I would go. .270 is most satisfactory to use on elk, seen many taken with it...but, heck, get the .06, find a 160gr load you...

    .38's in a .357 Lever Action Rifle?

    The cat's meow My Marlin has never had a problem feeding .38's. The kick out of the little carbine isn't bad even with Cor-Bon .357 hunting loads. You load that thing up with .38's, even +p, and recoil is fairly non-existant. It's a nice step up from .22 when introducing a new shooter to...

    Sad, unnecessary

    Man... Sad. This is why I wear hunter orange even during muzzleloader season when it isn't required. Too many times I've heard stories that start, 'I thought I heard a deer...' greg

    My First Elk Hunt

    Wrong! My buddy and I believe that they turn into blackbirds and woodpeckers. Days like your first two, when you saw no animals are the reason I do believe that their could be such a thing as Big Foot in the woods. Example...this year I spent 45 hours actually out of a veihicle...

    .357 Whitetail Bullet

    No REAL data I don't have any real world data, because I never found a deer to shoot at, but a few years ago when I didn't have enough vacation time to go mulie hunting in eastern Washington, I banged around the woods near my house with my lever-action Marlin. The load I settled on then was...

    Oregon handgun training course recommendations

    Well... There is also the Firearms Academy of Seattle, which isn't really in Seattle...it's in Centralia, so it's closer to Portland than Seattle. I can't vouch for it myself, but if Pax is willing to be associated with it, it must be an okay place. My wife is starting nursing school...
