I am not sure if this has been posted before but I came across this website yesterday while trying to research TN candidates' positions on different issues. It seems that candidates on a ballot are asked to take a quick multiple-choice survey that asks them to state their positions on the...

I was talking to someone earlier today, and he mentioned that a friend of his, who is ridiculously rich, once bought 20 (twenty) AKs at once. So it got me thinking. What was the maximum number of guns you ever bought at once in a single transaction? Cslinger and I were wondering which...

We gun nuts are a prepared bunch aren't we. I always say at the bare minimum everybody should be have on their person a way to make fire, a way to make light, a blade and basic tools. I have that covered and more. OOOOppppps just realized I posted this as SHESLINGER instead of CSLINGER...

I am not sure if this argument has ever been used before to rebut statements from some politicians that they are for hunters but that "those evil military-style assault weapons have no place in a civilized society"... Now, I personally have nothing against hunting but what you're in fact...

We are 95% sure we are coming up next weekend and are completely free Friday night. Anyone up for going to On Target? I know that several of you mentioned being members there and the fact that it helps with the final bill a whole lot in MD. A shoot and a dinner or a shoot and a couple of...

Another helpful hint from our Walmart gun counter clerk who is an FFL holder. See the previous one here. http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=36286&highlight=germany So, I am at Walmart, shopping for gifts, and just happen to be at the gun counter. I look down and don't...

We took a ton of pictures, so we will have them posted later but this is by far my favorite... Sheslinger

We just bought an SW99 Compact in .40. Of course, Cslinger had to clean it and then release it into its natural habitat (even though we were just there yesterday). The gun is very comfy even though it's just a tad bigger than a G26 and one of the two mags does not have a pinky rest. It ran...

Cslinger already mentioned that we will most likely sooner than later be moving towards MD to be closer to family. Since neither one of us wants to actually reside in MD, we are thinking about looking in S. PA, N. VA, DE. So, I had several questions to ask as to where those stand and if any...

Only took 23 days from the date of the fingerprinting. I have to say - this is the second time this year that the government pleasantly surprised me by being efficient - first my citizenship test took about 10 minutes and now this... Have to celebrate by taking some toys out this weekend...

How about getting together this weekend for an outdoor range shoot and maybe a cookout? Sheslinger

I know, everyone should have my problems, but Cslinger emailed me earlier asking which guns I want to take out tonight. So I ask you, "What's the best TGIF gun for you?" Ok, I am a geek but my thought process kind of reminds me of an episode of TNG when Q becomes mortal and asks Data what he...

Ok, what is the one that is mentioned or known the most and even became a synonym with the word "gun"? I am talking about the places where people might have only heard of guns from books and movies (e.g., Soviet Union republics). Colt .45? Sheslinger

This story has two parts, so bear with me. We had two friends of our over, and Cslinger was showing them "the collection". The girl proceeds to take the rifle and turn 180 degrees, with muzzle crossing all three of us standing there. Cslinger, her husband, and I all sort of got a little...

So a couple of days ago I am talking to my 22-year-old cousin who lives in Baltimore (both mine and Cslinger's parents live there also), and she asks why we would not move back. I list a bunch of reason one of them being, "There is pretty much no way for us to get CCW permits". She goes, "I...

OK, I know this is a pipe dream but still. Do you think there is even a slight chance with a repub governor that MD will pass some kind of a carry law? It is really silly as much as we drive to MD for us to drive for 8.5 hours through TN and VA, stop, unload the guns, the magazines, the...

My parents live in Baltimore where there is a pretty big size Russian community and they get a couple of Russian cable channels. I was talking to Mom last night and she was watching the news talking about many protests against Americans, Bush, etc. Anyway, they interviewed one of the...

An idea for Oleg's birthday. Oleg and Runt, please do not peek... Hello Have an idea for Oleg's birthday gift and need some advice. I will wait for Oleg and Runt to respond that they will stay out of this thread so that I can collaborate... Thanks Sheslinger

So, here I am browsing Gunbroker last night (you know, after that promise of no more guns until 2005, all we can do is window-shop), and I come across a couple of MAS', one chambered in .308. It looked sweet, and Cslinger thought it was pretty cool, too and he said he'd never seen one in .308...

We are up to six in the last month. I think we'd better slow down. The credit card bills are starting to look scary. Four of the six were C&R, though. Sheslinger
