    Marlin fishing

    I went looking for a new Marlin lever in .44 mag (20" barrel) this weekend in SE Texas. Couldn't find one. Have any of you had similar problems? There is a gun show I will go to next Friday hoping to link up with one of these....

    paperwork!

    I got to thinking about gun purchase scenarios and some questions emerged that are perplexing to me. Perhaps my ignorance has the better of me, but I know the you guys are savvy enough to shed some light for me. Scenario 1 : Joe sees a gun asvertised in a local paper, call up owner, and meets...

    2 stage

    This may be obvious to most of you, but here goes.... RE : Two-stage triggers found on AR-15 style rifles Do these allow for rapid firing (i.e. in the same way a non-staged trigger does) ?

    naked Elvis monkey space travellers

    Sorry...a flagrant, attention-getting device. Subject : Freedom March As an ancillary to the thread(s) concerning pro-Second Amendment marches.... I agree that trying to pull together a real march (i.e. lots of humans) would be an exercise in frustration. What about approaching the...

    is the doctor in?

    This kind of speaks for itself...although slightly dated, nevertheless thought-provoking stats : Number of physicians in the US = 700,000 Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year = 120,000 Accidental deaths per physician = 0.171 (U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services) Number of gun...

    2nd Amendment...bah humbug!

    Here's a telling letter from the Justice Department in response to a citizen's inquiry into the US vs. Emerson case (where the state in no uncertain terms absolutely renounced the 2nd Amendment...read the transcript...unbelievable. Thye state their official position)...

    voodoo ballistics ?

    Have you heard of this group/site? The article is a too extreme/one-sided in my opinion, wholly discounting the notion of a bullet's destructive capacity or stopping capabilities in relation to its energy @ impact. The author even concedes that this is a factor in hunting rounds? Seems...

    Scary Big Brother

    I posted this on Ted Nugent's site.... Attached are articles I ran across, from one of the more normal, cogent "conspiracy" sites. I am not a conspiracy nut by any means, but this is dark stuff.... The subject is F.E.M.A. Quite thought-provoking in its implications (for tyranny). They are...

    pork

    I'm going to go look for a lever action .44 mag this weekend. I thought it would be fun for a Texas hog hunt this year with iron sites. I am looking at either Marlin or Winchester. Any thoughts are appreciated, as always...some of your experiences, good or bad...what ammo...etc. (I don't load...

    Colt Army

    I am a collector hoping to get a new Colt Custom Shop Army some day. I own a Vaquero, which I enjoy and appreciate as a fine piece, which has lead me to my looking at the Colts. I got the chance to hold (and fondle!) a new Colt Army. Man, what a nice, smooth, tight machine! The shop that had it...

    trivia

    Many of you veterans probably know this...I just read this fact. Who can answer this trivia (firearms related): Where did the term "nine yards" originate (as in "the whole nine yards")? answer : Pacific WWII fighter pilots coined this term. When arming their planes on the ground...

    Texas concealed carry

    I have decided that concealed carry is good for me ( I have been paranoid for some time of the big-brother-registration thing), but I cannot help but think that there might be a flood of businesses that post the no-firearms signs and I will be in a constant holster-unholster dance. What are the...

    Texas hog

    Any Texas hog hunters out there. I am looking forward to a 2001 Javelina hunt to bring back some pork chops. Where do you all hunt? I am going down to south Texas see relatives in the fall/winter and would like to know of some decent public lands where a fat one can be had.I think I remember...
