I live in the mountains of Colorado and have had several Black Bear incidents including one that tried to break into the house. The dogs have done all the heavy lifting so far. Luckily I have never fired against a bear in anger. In the home I keep a 12 ga loaded with Brenneke slugs in the first...

I know that most ammo is designed for standard barrel lengths and the powder pressure profile may not be optimum for short barrelled handguns. I also know that with everything else being equal that higher velocities can be had with longer barrelled handguns. My question is: Does the new Gold Dot...

I have the carbine length 444. The recoil does not feel too bad, but the combination of recoil pad compression and recoil did cause the scope to hit me in the eye brow. Getting a long eye relief scope and it should be a piece of cake.

Interesting. I graduated from UF in 1982. Lived off campus and had a rifle at my apt. I had a Rem 700 in .270Win and my roommate had a 30-30 though I don't remember the model. No CCW laws back then.

I agree with what Titan6 said. In many states a lawful self defense would be considered a violent crime if it had occurred in a more "anti" state.

When that totalitarian Rudie speaks, he looks like what people I grew up with in Florida would call a sh*t eating possum.

I would carry the 44 mag Desert Eagle that I snuck past TSA (Time Travel Security Administration)

With a long barrel it is easier for a BG to hide behind a corner and grab the barrel as you are searching. In this position the BG has leverage over you.

Good for OSHA. I would not have complied anyway. Not enforcing this rule will give OSHA employees more time to worship their Stalin statues anyway.

I hope MD gets RTC, but I am not holding my breath.

Having those who pay little in taxes vote on what the productive class will pay for is simply wrong. If people are voting for issues that have a tax consequence, they need to be prepared to pay their fair share.

I have posted this before, most recently in the "in my driveway" thread: Years ago, just a few years out of college, I was sitting on my couch reading a book at about 8:00 p.m. I heard the door knob jiggle on my apt door. I looked outside through the peep hole and saw a wierd...

Years ago, just a few years out of college, I was sitting on my couch reading a book at about 8:00 p.m. I heard the door knob jiggle on my apt door. I looked outside through the peep hole and saw a wierd "skinhead-tattooed" and very large young male outside my door. I assumed he was visiting the...

If these people give you a good review it is time to worry! This kind of review from "them" should be considered a compliment!

He is a big city control freak that uses crime as his excuse to use the same controls on the law-abiding. A vote for Hillary is probably a slightly greater vote for freedom, though that is not saying much. Has anyone seen Bloomberg and Rudy at the same place and same time?
