I totally agree. I'm happy because this would give me something else to tease my friends that live in states less friendly towards guns. :D

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Drivers could immediately respond with deadly force to a forced attempt to enter their cars under a bill passed unanimously by the Senate on Thursday. The measure sponsored by Sen. Don McLeary would expand the authorization of deadly force from homes to vehicles. "This...

Deeep breaths...deeeeeeeep breaths... ;) No one is justifying the shooting. People are trying to relate how they have been harrassed like this guy has and felt pushed to a boiling point. This isn't justification, it's elaboration...conversation...nothing more. None of us know what truely...

I totally agree! When I was a kid, the only gun I ever really lusted after was my Dad's Winchester .22 bolt action. Since it was his first gun, I knew he'd never part with it. (I knew that because he had said, "I'll never part with this gun.") 7 years ago, totally to my surprise, he gave...

I was starting to worry about myself until I read this sentence: *phew* I recently aquired my first 1911 (3" officers'), but I still want a full size. So, would it be wrong if I got a full size Colt 1911...then a full size Springfield 1911...then a full size Kimber 1911...then a full size...

I thought I was giving a bad gift once.... Two years ago I bought my brother a Winchester 1200 pump. (That's part was just fine...) The problem was the disgusting "camo" job done to it. I bought it with the intention of stripping the paint off, but time didn't allow that. So, when I gave...

The 10 or so times I shot skeet, I used my 20" Mossberg 590. I'm sure I could have done better with a longer barrel, but I was happy with my results.

I'll quickly chime in... I have the Mossberg 590 'marinecote' and love it to death. The _only_ complaint I have is it's a little picky about what hulls I use. As long as I reload with Win. AA hulls, all is good. (There's probably other hulls I could use, but I found something that works and...

I can see it. I mean, shooting a green gun totally makes my butt look bigger, so I stick with black (very slimming) and stainless (the shiny-ness diverts attetion.) :rolleyes: :)

Our permits allow us to carry a handgun and that permitted handgun is what we can't carry in parks. However, you have a rifle in your pic. Maybe you'd be happier with the image if a handgun was used? I only bring this up since we can't 'carry' a rifle anywhere except at the range or at...

Crikey. I can't believe what I'm reading here. THEORY: everyone should carry and defend his/her self. REALITY: everyone doesn't In theory, there's no difference between theory and reality. In reality, there is. "Shooting the bastard" isn't always an option. I don't care what's...

Can't argue with that. I was only referring to 'the mean time.' Anyway, dumb idea or not, I give these Swedish teens credit for at least being active against rape and not living in denial saying, "it won't happen to me."

...and for those where handguns aren't an option? What about them? Not everyone lives in freedom. :)

I've heard too many lies from the mouths of Gun Sh*tty employees, they will never see my money no matter how good the gunsmith is. (From "double action" 1911s to a 3.4" P22 that keeps a 2" group at 50 yds. Brotha' please...) There's a shop in Joelton (Academy of Self Protection) off I24...

Day late.....I was out there yesterday. (6/10)
