    Your Best Arguments and Talking Points against Anti-gunners and Fence-Sitters

    The anti gun movement uses fear, lies and emotion to try to take away our rights. They've figured out how to do it in slow waves -- like a frog slowly boiling in a pot or the camel's nose in your tent. It has been working for them for the past decades. They have our institutions and time on...

    The Argument Against Any Gun Control "Compromise" In Three Short Steps

    The Argument Against Any Gun Control "Compromise" In Three Short Steps: Step 1. The Second Amendment is vanilla ice cream. All-American. Not too exciting, but it works. It works very well. Step 2. Any infingement on the right to keep and bear arms - because "it's dangerous"..."it can hurt...

    "High Power Handgun" Competition - NEW!

    My trap team is done with trying to shoot Fall trap. Too many nights of driving 45 minutes to get pelted with snowflakes late in the season. And the Winter league is simply brutal. So we have been talking about some sort of pistol competition when our summer league is over if a few weeks. We...

    Anyone See the Youth .22lr/20ga Combo Deal for $89?

    Did anyone see the Sunday newspaper ad for an $89 youth combo a few Sundays ago? They had a choice of .22lr/.410 or .22lr/20ga available. I could not get it that week and now I cannot remember which store had it for sale. I thought it was an NEF, but it might have been a Rossi. If anyone...

    Does Anyone Use 9mm or .45acp for Hunting?

    I often carry a .357 or .44 in the woods. They are both legal for deer in Minnesota and I like having a backup gun when I go deep into the woods. I had a bolt action rifle freeze on me once, but I still stayed out all day with my .44 mag. Does anyone use .45acp or 9mm for hunting? It sure...

    Movie - World Trade Center - Handguns

    I just saw Oliver Stone's World Trade Center movie. It was good. Especially considering it was a true story about real heroes. Two questions: 1. Why did the police officer hit by the falling rubble take out his sidearm and fire into the air as he died? 2. What made the rest of his rounds go...

    Marlin 1895 vs. Controlled Feed

    We all know that controlled feed bolt guns like the pre-64 Winchester 70 and the Mauser are recommended for dangerous game because your round cannot fall out of the action if you are jostled while operating the bolt. This is presumably the same reason the Europeans use big-bore double-barreled...

    Gun Control Laws That Keep CRIMINALS from using Guns

    On another board that includes a lot of anti's, this question came up during arguments for and against gun control during the Maryland "Sniper" (Bushwacker) murder spree. Someone asked -- "OK, if you are for more gun control, tell me how you would implement gun control in such a way that it...

    "We should thank the stars that America is the most powerful nation in the world."

    http://globalspecops.com/pro-america.html Subject: Editorial from the Daily Mirror Just a word of background on the Daily Mirror newspaper, which is published in England. It is a notorious left-wing daily and is usually very anti-American. In other words, the Daily Mirror is much like most of...

    Experience with Ported Barrel in 1911

    Does anyone have experience with a "drop-in" six inch ported barrel for their standard 1911? This will be for target shooting and bowling pin only and not for carry or self defense. Here's an example of what I mean: http://www.gunaccessories.com/HandgunBarrels/Ported/index.asp Do these help...

    Did anyone else notice all the revolvers in the new James Bond Film? Is this the beginning of a new wheelgun trend? Does anyone know which revolver he picked up in Cuba? I'm guessing it was a S&W .357.

    Hunting - Sling as shooting aid?

    How many of you wrap your arm in your sling loop to steady your shot when hunting? I've found that it really limits my range if I'm waiting for a deer to walk by and I don't know the direction, especially if I'm in a stand with shooting rails. It seems it would be great if you're stalking elk...
