For those of you who don’t know, a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich.

It’s societal. Let’s be honest. This is ‘Merica! One can pretty much buy anything they want, within limits as it relates to guns. So people tend to think that if you pay a certain amount of money the net result at the end of the day is that you will be able to do it, to use it, to gain from...

I’ll second the happy Traitor’s Day!

I don’t trust a jury any further than I can pee in a hurricane, no matter how good the facts may be. Over the years I’ve lost the ones I thought I’d won, and won the ones I was sure I lost. People are fickle. Put something like this in front of them and you just never know what they talk...

If you pursue, I’d suggest getting the kit from Clark’s Custom Guns. They are probably the leading “sponsor” of the Rowland platform out there today. I’ve handled a few Rowland conversions over the years … a Springfield Armory and an Hk USP so converted. Wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. I have a...

We are diminished.

The answer is simple .... he didn't have the mindset that is required when you carry a gun. He was not prepared (mentally) to have to possibly take a life to defend his own, or that of a loved one and live with the consequences.

Yeah .... I use a Stanley box cutter for boxes and a real knife for cutting (birthday) cake. Maybe that's me, but I don't like a universal knife - I like 'em for various tasks.

Yep. Stupidity knows no boundaries.

Ahhhhh......the lovely 17s. I had a Cooper 17M4 that I shot for years. Fun grass-patch varmint gun. Absolutely murder on ground squirrels, skunks, armadillos and any other small vermin. Still have about 250 pieces of new, unmolested 221FB brass somewhere. Thanks for the (short) stroll...

We have a gun show this weekend to celebrate America’s 250. Ought to be entertaining. I’ll make a trip in the morning, see what they have going on. I always look for reloading gear, spare pistol magazines and some ammo I can’t otherwise get locally. I might have to look through my “stash”...

Exactly. Could either of them have just walked away and deescalated the situation? This is why you always, ALWAYS have your guard up. No matter who, no matter where you are. I just don’t trust people anymore in today’s world.

Too powerful for what, exactly? No one ever said they had too much ammo - unless they were drowning or on fire. No one has ever said their ammo was too powerful, have they?

Met the man once, many years ago in Arkansas where he lived. He was a large man, wore grimy coveralls and a ball cap. Drove what I believe was an F100. Simple man, very routine-driven. Had his breakfast each day at the same diner in Bentonville. You’d never know he was Sam Walton. I suspect he...

Man, I do think Wilson’s are nice but way overpriced in my books.

Reinforcing my thoughts on Wal Mart, people in general, and parking way out in East Bumble Field when I have to go to that store …

The warrior mindset is to not take hiking trails, period. Go off trail!

No surprise. If Congress won’t pass common sense legislation that is backed by the Constitution, then the States will continue to try to redefine the boundaries by passing legislation in direct conflict with the Constitution. When the cycle will end is anyones guess.

I reload way less than I used to. Time means more to me, and I’d rather spend that time shooting than pulling the handle on my Rock Chuckers. I buy bulk for 223, 9/40. I’ll load for the revolvers and the 45, and the other rifles. With some of these newfangled super high pressure cases, I’d...
