I bought a new one of these puppies a couple of weeks ago from Shooter's Choice in Columbia, SC, which also has an indoor range. I also bought a box of Gold Dot 165 gr., a box of Federal Hydra-Shok 155 gr., and a box of WW 180 gr. FMJFP (50 frds.) I immediately shot the gun to see where it was...

I'm currently engaged in a debate with some anti types "on another board", and I need to cite a US SC case I've heard of, but don't know the name of. It is the case where the court ruled that law enforcement has no obligation to protect indiviudals. I'm aware of the findlaw on-line resource, but...

For all the TFLers who live in South Carolina, mark April 22 on your calendar. This is the date of the second annual Mid-Carolina Rifle Club open house, and the guest of honor will be none other than Jeff Cooper. He and his wife Janelle and daughter Lindy will be arriving in Columbia on Tuesday...

Was watching a program about memory problems on either TLC or Discovery (can't remember which :)) and heard this interesting bit of info. A blow to the top of the head will not necessarily KO a person unless it is a very heavy one, probably heavy enough to fracture or crush the skull. What will...

Tonight's Tales of the Gun on the History Channel, 8:00PM ET, chronicles the guns of John M. Browning. Get those VCR's ready, folks, this one will be a keeper. In case you haven't figured it out, I consider JMB to be The Greatest Firearms Designer of All Time. ------------------ Shoot...

I'm part of a group that used to be on the Prodigy Classic Shooting Sports Bulletin Boards, and during the course of our association, we started having annual get togethers in Charlotte, NC, home of Charlie Petty and the Charlotte Rifle & Pistol Club (a very nice facility, BTW.) This past...

The following was posted by Dean Speir on the Prodigy Internet Sports Rec. Shooting Sports BB. I have "known" Dean via the 'net for 6 years, and he has yet to post anything of this nature that was not 100% accurate. <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>October...

I've been wondering about the ramifications of the Emerson case if Judge Cummings' ruling is upheld. I'm sure there will be numerous cases attacking NFA '34, CGA '68, FOPA '87, Brady, and the AW ban, as well as state, county, and municipal gun laws. However, has anyone thought about the possible...

It is my sad duty to report there is a thief among the posters here on TFL. I have spoken to Rich L. about this, and we feel that the following is appropriate. I made a deal with "Snoman" for my Trailmaster Bowie, and stupidly sent the knife before receiving verified funds. He won't answer...

OK, there's a hole in my knowledge base. Please explain to me the differences in controlled feed, push feed, etc, as applied to bolt action rifles. All help is greatly appreciated. The only dumb question is the one not asked regards, Richard

If one depresses a trigger, should one give it some Prozac, or just sweet-talk it 'till it feels better? Why do triggers "break like a glass rod?" I would think that one doesn't want a trigger that breaks, but rather, a trigger that works properly w/o malfunctions. If one is calling shots...

My normal computer time is from 5:30AM until about 7:00AM. The last couple of mornings, I have gotten a "server down or unreachable" error message when I tried to come here. What's up with that? Is there a certain time with the new server for maintenance in the mornings? ------------------...

I belong to Mid-Carolina Rifle Club in Columbia, SC, and today, we held an open house to celebrate our new $60K range improvements. FN, Glock, and several RKBA groups were invited to attend, as well as the general public. Glock was letting people try all their models (except the machinepistol)...

I know that somewhere in Jeff Copper's writings, he has defined the term "shotist", but I can't seem to locate it. I've tried Cooper's Commentaries, but haven't found it there. Does anyone happen to have it handy so it could be posted, or else direct me specifically to where it can be found...

All too often, I hear people speaking in terms of "Constitutional rights", and I think one needs to step back and take a look at the big picture. The rights -enumerated- in the Constitution are -basic human rights-, and the Constitution itself nothing more than a document which promises that our...

I was wondering what favorites anyone might have for use as a defensive carbine, handgun caliber, inside the home. I like the idea of a Winchester Trapper in .45 Colt, but it would need a ghost ring rear and tritium front sight. A Marlin would do, but it would need to be shortened (a trip to...
