    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    With all that spare time I have, you could post a single major gun control law written since 1871 that was not written AND supported by the NRA. That should be easy right? And by support, in this case, it means they took your money (support), and spent it on and office, pay a lawyer to sit...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    Really? Who promised you a list? I even made one for you. Did you miss it? Like all the other evidence of their actions? It's not clear that "support" in this case means sending it's paid (sorry, YOU paid) representitives to give sworn testimony before congress and even the admitted actual...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    Did you read the quote above? It even gives the time and place. What part of it was not clear to you, was it the NRA's own words or was it their specific actions that are not clear? ETA:

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    No. The court does not "swing" back on isssues it's already decided. Certainly not because a justice dies. All future courts are bound by Heller, just as the Heller court of today was bound by Miller of the 1930's. Case law, and the courts are on our side. Individuals are standing up for...

    .357mag, then & now

    Hence, this is exactly why we are seeing "ruger only" loads apearing as if it's a wildcat. We all know a 6" GP100 is in a different league than an aluminum snuby, but SAMMI seems intent on making standards suited to the minimum.

    Panic buying and higher prices

    It's fun to blame politicians, but... Everything is more expensive as the value of the dollar has plumeted in the last decade. Costs of everything have skyrocketed. This trend will continue until the dollar strengthens and our economy begins to grow over inflation.

    Is it legal to have gun in trunk and drive around?

    Revolver vs. Semi Auto in Longevity... Who wins?

    Guns with long life, no problem. Shooters who can throw over 100,000 rounds? Rare. Good luck wearing out a Glock 17 or Ruger GP100. I won't wait for the results.

    Put my first M1 Garand on layaway Today.

    How could a soldier "keep" his rifle? He can't. The story sounds like BS. Which would make me not believe anything else from that dealer. Buy from CMP! Service grade would cost less than the OP and the CMP papers are the best proof of authenticity.
