Ah, thought you were comparing very young to very old. I think I addressed that same perspective you have very early in this thread, though I used 21 (and well over) as the age that doesn’t prove maturity,

I’m not sure those 80 years olds are as much scary stupid as they are experiencing the beginnings of dementia, or worse, rather than lack of maturity. More science comes into play on this side of the life stages. I’ll freely admit that I am NOT a Constitutional scholar. This question is for...

I do think a lot forget those 18 year old draftees were supervised somewhat (not a lot, but somewhat), and some more than others. But not like an 18 year old was handed an M16 with zero training, unlimited rounds, and sent off on their own with no one to ask for help when needed. And I know it...

Actually, the science demonstrates the male brain matures greatly between 18 and 21, and even more after, up to 25 - and more recent studies indicate 32.. “Between ages 18 and 21, the brain undergoes significant maturation, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, which is responsible for...

I took the liberty of pulling the chart out of the article you provided. It’s interesting that the year over year growth had stayed pretty consistent since 2020 (note they skipped 2024 so a bigger jump, but on average about + 500,000 a year), and then the 1.3 million jump from 2025 to 2026...

"The Red Headed Stranger" is a legendary, tragic figure from Willie Nelson's 1975 concept album of the same name. He is a heartbroken cowboy from Blue Rock, Montana, riding a black stallion with a bay horse in tow, who kills a woman in a tavern for trying to steal his deceased wife's pony. [1...

I’ve seen my share of those 21 (and well over) who might also be considered scarily stupid! And I’ve no doubt there are some exceptionally mature 18 year olds, probably in the minority in this day and age of teenagers staring at phones nonstop and eating Tide pods to “win” a virtual “challenge”.

So here’s an article trying to use the latest POTUS assassination attempt to lump “all” gun deaths under the umbrella of mass shootings (1.9 million since 1968), not separating by actual numbers where those gun related deaths resulted from gang violence or suicide...

Not even “Pop” Evil?

Those are pretty much progressive rock bands, with Rush closer to rock. But Pink Floyd and ELP are for sure progressive rock banks - much in the vein of Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, Alan Parsons Project, Jethro Tull, Gentle Giant, Camel, etc. In the words of AI… “Progressive rock (prog)...

I can see that perspective. Though I load mine with Winchester Ranger 38 Special +P 130g when carrying or using for home defense.

Love mine too! Maybe offer it with a threaded barrel, so it could do double duty for home defense* with a suppressor added? Just sayin’…. *As my neighborhood continues to degenerate, I suspect my threat will be more likely at home than out and about. Would prefer to protect my and wife’s...

About the only thing I question is the “appearance” of all the agents appearing to be watching/looking toward the stairway leading to the ballroom. Usually when you set up a perimeter, and you’re posted on that perimeter, the job is to watch what might approach that perimeter from the outside...

I’m thinking it would be more like Trijicon’s technology where it turns itself way down after a set number of hours. Trijicon’s says theirs last 4 years, but that’s not holographic. And I’m sure that’s best case. I’d be alright with an annual battery change if I can pre-predict it. In the...

I don’t mean this to be political, but it’s a serious question. I had never bought an NFA item before as I thought a $200 permission slip was ridiculous. Since it’s been marked down to a $0 tax stamp, I have now purchased and have in my possession two suppressors, one I use with long...
