    South Carolina Info and questions

    No duty to retreat in your home or your yard. Don't know about the friendly part. The guy who taught my CCW class said to say nothing to the police. Call your attorney and let him/her do the talking. You can transport in your car if you are going to or from a shooting event. Otherwise...

    Don "Barney Fife" Knotts Dead

    Favorite Episode Don Knotts was certainly a heck of a guy and a great actor. Five Emmy awards. That has to be a record. My favorite episode of The Andy Griffith Show was the one where Barney gets a motorcycle with a sidecar. The man was hysterically funny. RIP

    My aunt and cousin have been murdered in Florida

    I saw this on the TV news. Shocking. The press kept trying to get one of the relatives to talk. She just walked away from him. I wouldn't have been that gracious. I am so sorry for your loss.

    Advice needed. (Ranges/schools near Miami)

    Are we the only ones?

    um...I am pretty sure there were three original Swiss groups from Uri, Schwyz, and Unterwalden which banded together in 1291 to fight against the Habsburgs thereby forming a confederation. Maybe not a revolution per se. Swiss history

    Freemasons???

    My dad is a Mason and a shriner. I don't know if he broke any rules or not but he told me a good bit about it. Probably not the "top secret" stuff though. My impression is that the Freemasons have been around a very long time. Local charities and group activites are up to the lodge. My...

    Guns your father had when you were growing up

    My dad taught me to shoot with his Colt .32 revolver. He gave it to my cousin a few years ago and it was stolen along with other guns my cousin had. :(

    A connection between marksmanship and morality?

    He's right. It cannot be proven. Lots of BGs have self-control.

    My Very First Gun Show (ALONE NO LESS!)

    I go to gun shows alone. I thought people were looking at me funny and I started to get a little paranoid. When I got to the car I realized it was because I had some of the chili from my chili dog on my chin. :) Sounds like you had a good time. I enjoyed reading your post.

    Opinion on a Webley, please

    I can't believe you folks are badmouthing Webleys. I love this thing. In my eyes it's a thing of beauty. And I love the way it shoots. I loved my Triumph too. Hated the repair bills but loved the car.
