Ruger P85. Looks like a brick, shoots like a dream.

I received my December issue of Guns & Ammo this week. I read Metcalf's article and thought ***? The issue also came with a renewal notice, "This Is Your Last Issue!" How prophetic. When it comes to gun control, gun owners need to hang together or hang separately. Metcalf has chosen to hang...

My S&W 1911 is awesome. Sometimes I feel like I can just point it in the general direction of the target and hit the bullseye.

Just a few of my guns, until the bizarre gardening accident.

My Greyhound "Wink". He's a retired racer. Quite useless for home defense. If someone breaks into my house, Wink will be the first to show the intruder to the refrigerator.

Norinco Type 56S AK-47. I bought it in California about 20 years ago before they went commie and banned them. It came with 3 30 round mags, sling, cleaning kit, and bayonet, has a chrome lined barrel, stainless bolt, gas piston, etc. all for about $350 NIB.
