    Just curious.... I know this means I have posted and no new posts. this one is one I have posted in but new post exists... So what does this or this specify? I thought the bullet hole was a thread I had not viewed and the crosshairs was one I looked at but doesn't seem to really be so. Brent

    High dollar ammo and "BOOLITS"

    So would anyone be willing to enter into dicussion regarding the "Premium" VS. "Cheap" ammo? I buy Winchester .30-30 or shotgun ammo in the lowest price scale for either round. For the sake of discussion we will just say that your rifle/shotgun puts any and all ammo into a sub 3 inch group at...

    870 SUPER Mag... steel shot damage?

    My mistake... I should have stated in the cleaning thread it was a super mag. Junior did okay I reckon as this gun has no routine wear whatsoever AT ALL!!!

    Pregnant momma Stops a burglar...

    The guy is a repeat offender with similar crimes in his past. This pretty much local news here to me. No charges filed and I do feel she overstepped the Castle Doctrine allowances. The kid had a cooler with 5K in cash and other loot. I think I heard his firearm was stolen as well...

    what law is violated???

    If I am stopped by a LEO and he asks me a direct question such as "Do you have any guns drugs or large quantities of cash?". Am I violating a law if I answer no to all but I have a rifle and pistol in the vehicle? A "gun" is, by definition a smoothbore projectile launching platform. Brent
