    back to the "why would an LEO disarm a CCWer when doing a rountine traffic stop?"

    Still (& still) mulling over why any LEO would think that it's "necessary" to disarm a citizen that has a CCW - say, during the citizens' changing of a flat tire or some other innocuous event in which the LEO made contact. Whether or not said citizen didn't take offence - still doesn't make any...

    How to run a state pro-gunner campaign

    Another e-mail forwarded to me today ..... This is absolutely the best letter I've seen from one of "the converted." Anybody think that full-blown, no-compromise activism can't do the trick? Call Colorado's Governor & ask him what it feels like to buck the pro-freedom folks in Colorado. We...

    drawing a corollary between dogs & guns

    Just read this e-mail .... "This letter to the editor ran in The Boulder (Colo.) Daily Camera on Saturday, June 10, 2000. I thought at first it was one of the many pro or con dogs on trails letters our local rag publishes. When I finished it, I was laughing so hard I nearly spilled my coffee on...

    Just more nonsense - honeymooners nabbed in Atlanta

    Just more nonsense .... figured I'd pass it along. We ARE the good guys & act as such. What the hell does any of these stupid laws have to do with "us!?" Even when acting in good faith, we still get banged. Time to start turning all this crap around, folks. BTW, sorry if no links works -...

    A new twist on an old quote

    Heard of a TRT lady in FL who had an abreviated version of this on her T-shirt. Only passed on by word of mouth to me & I "livened it up" a bit. A couple minutes worth is what you see. Any wordsmiths out there care to tackle this & make it ship-shape? It's a start & I believe could be very...

    Part Two - TFL 2010

    I like Speedy's best. Why would anyone think, or care to, that we'll lose? Just take it back, damnit! Think of a time, far past, where we, the law-abiding, could buy whatever we want - through mail order - no checks, no questions. You misused it = you got punished. You didn't = you weren't...

    And where is NRA, et al in the SAS-AIMM hoop-la?

    Seemingly conspicuously absent in all this latest debate is all the state affiliates & the national-level NRA. I have yet to hear one single word regarding the NRA's support for what the SAS is attempting to do. Are not we all in this together? Is not SAS-AIMM's goal a worthy one? The...

    .460 Rowland

    Had a chance to shoot one a couple weeks back. Very managable for the power level - much lighter than similar loadings in a .44 mag revolver. All in 5" bbl pistol: 185s at 1550fps 200 = 1450fps 230 = 1340fps uses a drop-in bbl kit & will still shoot reg ol' 45ACP & (what's that "other"...

    A post at TRT site ... thought it worthwhile to re-post here. As an aside from my own "experience" on seeing Saving Private Ryan, at the end, Ryan begs his wife to tell him that he has lead a good life .... There are a great many ways to do that. May that you choose such that in 20 years, you...

    Observation/questions re TFL political activism

    Not a rant, an observation and questions .... labgrade's "a crazy," one of those "fringe elements." I, and a couple others have done some posts regarding a somewhat more overt, strident type of activism. These type posts seem to get very scant attention in TFL. A post re a boycott, a poll...
