    Suport Starbucks on Feb. 14th

    I live over 30 miles away from the nearest Starbucks. Drive there anyway and had a coffee & an expensive muffin. Made sure the manager knew why I was there. The place looked busy as hell to me!

    Gun Show Prices are absurd!!!

    At the El Paso gun show, I found a an/pvs-14 storage can, with foam intact, for $15.00. Another guy in the back of the room had the same can for $45.00. Guess which one I bought!

    ATF says 'no" to pot users...bluntly

    As I see it, even if your State allowed the use of Marijuana, Federal Law does not, therefore, it would still be considered Illegal under FEDERAL law. Not saying that I agree / disagree either way, just playing Devil's Advocate....

    Is this a Colt M1917?

    I used to have one of those, but mine did not look as good as yours. I used the "Half-moon clips" that held 3 cartridges. I found them easier to use than the 6 round clips. David.

    Yugoslavian SKS ammo pouch, SKS buttstock cleaning kit and SKS oiler and carrier. Looks very nice to me. Remember to rub some leather treatment into the ammo pouch and oiler carrier to keep them soft & pliable! David. :)

    Texas ‘Open carry' proposal advances

    FYI for now, it seems to be doing fine by itself. Apparently, there is no organized resistance at this point. David.

    Texas ‘Open carry' proposal advances

    The House Committee on Homeland Security and Public Safety wants to take the concealed part out of concealed handgun licenses. The committee voted 5-3 in favor of a bill that would remove the word concealed from the law that allows Texans to have a handgun license. The so-called "open carry"...

    Rifle/carbine stance?

    My general philosophy is to present the smallest, fastest moving, laterally & rearward, target that I possibly can. While presenting the most armor possible towards the target may increase the likelihood of a hit on the armor, there is a lot of ammo out there that will defeat the armor, as well...

    Where is your gun safe?

    It has been my experience that most thieves do not try to bust open the safe in the home. They pry it loose from the wall/floor and haul it off to open at their convenience. Remember, they want to get in and out fast. My friend has 2 safes. One is a good safe hidden in a large closet. the other...

    Florida Carry Alert! Military Concealed Carry Rights Held Up

    "BTW. a concealed permit does not authorize any military member to carry on a military installation, which in my opinion is as it should be." I can think of a bunch of soldiers at Ft. Hood, Tx. that would argue that point. Just because you are on a Military Base/Reservation does not mean that...
