    thehighroad.org vs thehighroad.us ?

    Can anyone explain the split? Seems THR founder & his associates have a legal dispute. I do not go on the site enough to keep up with the latest poop. Thanks

    Did Sportsmans Guide Break the Law?

    I do not get items shipped to my home because I want to receive them. If we are not home, and UPS or FEDEX leave stuff on my doorstep, and it is stolen, it is tough s**t for me. I get everything shipped to work, so I make sure I receive my order. Even if I am away, someone is there at the...

    How Long Will A Gun Last?

    You will probably never wear it out- If you put 50 rounds a week through your CZ, about 2600 rounds a year. 52000 rounds in 20 years. By then, you may have replaced a few parts, like springs, possibly a firing pin. If you are like most gun owners, you will have more than one gun to shoot at...

    What's the strangest thing that's happened to you while...

    Neglingent Discharge-Not Mine I went to the club of which I am a member for some target shooting. The 25 yard pistol range was empty, the way I like it, so I can setup several targets and do some moving and shooting practice. I was almost done setting up to shoot and then 2 guys came over from...

    Heller and Lautenberg Act - Repeal

    Lautenberg should be impeached anyway As I recall, Sen. Lautenberg was retired. When a guy running for his current office got into some kind of legal trouble, Old Frank got back into the mix. As I remember it, his paperwork was handed in past the deadline, but they let him run anyway! Sounds...

    breaking in a new barrel

    New rifle break-in procedure I just fired 40 rounds through my new AR15. I will now clean it 8 times, 1 cleaning for each 5 rounds. Just kidding. Once will do just fine. I think the "Shoot 5 rounds and clean, then repeat" is a little too particular for me, but if some folks want to do that, I...

    Tax rebate. How will you spend it? (Merged threads)

    New Shed Roof I know- my priorities are all F-d up, but my storage shed has been crying for a new roof for a few years, and it is now just leaking a little when it rains, so I guess I need to get some shingles, a few sheets of plywood, some tar paper and roofing nails, and get to work. Maybe I...

    "Made in America" + "Economic Stimulus Package" = "?"

    Borrowed from China? Ken Grant wrote that this incentive money was borrowed from China. I have heard this rumor elsewhere, but I would like to see evidence that it is true, before spreading the rumor further. I tried to find info on the net, but came up empty-handed. How about it Ken: where...

    Gun Ban gets its day in court

    Typical Anti-Gunners Antics-LES ALL LIES! This morning on Fox News, there was a brief discussion with Paul Helmke of Brady Center and a guy from Cato Institute, whose name I unfortunately do not recall. I only saw a minute of it, but it was enough for me to want to puke out my breakfast. Lies...

    Range Practice is getting outrageous.

    Won't let you keep bass that you bought???!!! Quote: I meant to mention that the range has also now been more picky about turning in your brass back to them. I use to at least justify that at least I could keep my brass for when I start reloading. kd7nqb, Ask the range owner/manager if...

    Second Generation "Kaboom"

    Kabooms Happen Glock happens to be a very common gun, so they get the most attention for KB's. It happens with other brand as well. I agree with the unsupported chamber statement in an earlier reply. One very experience gun instructor has said that he recommends not using Glock in any caliber...
