    Hypothetical - You find authentic Bill of Rights documents

    Wealth? You can eat only so much. Our Founding Fathers proved their selves to be greater than ordinary men and they risked their lives and all they owned and all they held dear to obtain freedom for not only them but also for a nation. We know whom they were and we venerate them, they are...

    Do you believe in "gun break in?"

    Fail once, even during break-in, and I consider the gun useless for self defense. Needing a break-in and I consider the gun useless for self defense. Failure on the range is an annoyance. Failure in SD can be a tragedy.
