    Your best recommendation for an inexpensive SxS in 12 or 20?

    Your GREAT review and the beautiful photos of your G2 posted on this forum after you got yours were very instrumental in me deciding to pull the trigger(s) on this purchase. I will refer back to your photos as I clean, fondle and prep my new SXS for field duty! Thanks for helping me decide!

    Your best recommendation for an inexpensive SxS in 12 or 20?

    Macchina, you really got me with your original post! I've been longing for a 20 gauge SXS for a long time - ever since I borrowed my wife's grandfather's 20 gauge Savage Fox some 40+ years ago. I got real excited when I saw that Savage was reintroducing the Fox as an A grade.....that is until I...

    Canada Gun Ban Pt 2 - It gets worse....

    So am I missing something here? 50 BMG is listed as 12.7 x 99 mm NATO in Wikipedia. That is somewhat smaller than 20 mm and would not be banned by the law as stated above, right?

    I've been watching the activism in VA

    That work is taking place right now. The search for candidates is underway for any local and state seats that are occupied by freedom hating incumbents. Hopefully there will be no Democrats running unopposed in any future election - there were many in the last election as the Republican Party...

    Arguments against an "Assault Weapon" ban

    The really scary part of this is the erosion of freedom and the march toward a totalitarian progressive socialist regime that throughout history has been shown to produce body counts in the millions. The useful idiots, willing to give up the second amendment in favor of "reducing" deaths from...

    Arguments against an "Assault Weapon" ban

    I appreciate the positive replies above and there are some very good points that I will definitely use in upcoming arguments and discussions. I would also agree that having these arguments with most on the left will do little to change their minds.....but they are not a waste of time. If I can...

    Arguments against an "Assault Weapon" ban

    The people that I really want to reach are the Democrats holding a very slim margin in their district. I know we face an uphill fight in Virginia, but the fact that well over 100 localities (cities and counties) have adopted 2nd amendment sanctuary or constitutional city/county resolutions will...

    Arguments against an "Assault Weapon" ban

    So, as a Virginia resident, I was researching data to use in my arguments against an assault weapon (or magazine capacity) ban that have already been pre-filed in the Virginia state legislature when I came across some interesting and disproportionate numbers concerning the use of rifles in...

    Best Available Clam Knife?

    I love these high quality oyster knives from R. Murphy Knives for dealing with our Chesapeake Bay oysters. They are American made and come in a variety of styles, materials and blade configurations. They have clam and scallop knives as well, but I don't have any experience with those. Check...

    Anti-Gun Ex-State Senator Sentenced for What Else? Gun Trafficking

    Term Limits I firmly believe that elected officials should be limited to 2 terms - the first one that they are elected to and the second one in prison!

    Why aren't we better using facts to counter the Antis' arguments?

    I really appreciate all of the thoughtful responses above. I do agree that trying to change a died in the wool anti's mind on gun control is a monumental waste of time. My real interest here is how to effectively counter the oft-repeated lies that they spew in an effort to win some of the...

    Why aren't we better using facts to counter the Antis' arguments?

    Here's the thing that got me started - There are some untruths that they continue to quote as fact that are very easily disputed. One is the idea that they have the majority in their camp. If you can believe that POPVOX represents a cross section of America, then the trends would indicate that...

    Why aren't we better using facts to counter the Antis' arguments?

    I'm not as concerned about the ones that have made up their minds and will never be swayed by simple truth - my concern is that by not repeatedly and consistently blasting the misinformation with the facts, we are allowing the continuance of the spread of their urban myth. They repeat these...
