    Missoula Montana

    I believe this person is a member here, but here is her website, www.forevervain.com. She moved out there from VA a couple of years ago. Her site has some photos of the range she and her boyfriend use, and she's posted about the town; resturaunts, etc. Check it out. Sounds like a nice...

    Anyone tried these ear plugs?

    I have a set of these. I've used them once. IIRC, they worked pretty good. They did have a tendency to come off of the top of your head, which kind of breaks the seal in your ears. They would slide forward or backward a bit---I can't remember if it was really a problem. . For the price I...

    Price Check on 1911 & Spanish Auto.

    Jim: thanks for the info on the "Bufalo", that is interesting and helpful. I am attaching some additional photo's of the 1911. In one I played around with the brightness, contrast and color to try to make it more clear as to what the finish is like. You are correct that most of the bluing...

    Price Check on 1911 & Spanish Auto.

    A friend recently came into possession of this 1911 and a Spanish auto. Neither he nor I shoot or collect 1911's, so our knowledge of the value of this gun is limited, and we are seeking an unbiased opinion of it's worth, as well as the little Spanish pocket pistol. Any opinions of...

    Why do you need an assault rifle?

    . . . .because the veneer of civilization is very thin. Look at the events in NO after Katrina. Or in LA during the Rodney King riots. Or in the aftermath of Hurricane Andrew in south Florida. What would happen in a large scale terrorist attack? Such as EMP, bio-chemical or...

    Handgun owners irate over having names published online

    Yeah, my wife and I are on the list. . .:fire: So are several of my friends. Also some well known "personalities"----former Westchester DA, an actor. . .I'm sure many LEO's, judges, etc. With the list including those types, -----yeah, I'm sure old Jorge was suprised at the "intensity",------...

    S&W Model 19-2,3,4,6 ?

    Would someone enlighten me on what the difference is between these suffixes on the Model 19? At first I thought it was the barrel length, but looking round the 'net I see that isn't so. . . So what do the different #'s refer to?

    TSA Unlawfully Detains and Questions Two Friends

    After re-reading this whole thing, I have just one question: Who likes to get hand-cuffed, him or her?

    What if…

    Here's how the headline would go: "Woman shoots unarmed children during dispute. . ." Yourtown, USA---A xx year old woman shot and severly wounded three yy year old children today . . . one witness says the woman was being attacked, but other witnesses said the children were only...

    Jack Bauer - Comedian

    I stopped watching that show last year. My wife still watches it though. . What gets me is the saving the world on cell phones. My Blackberry doesn't work in half the buildings in NYC, nor do I get reception in my house! I told my son (amatuer video producer/director) that he should do a...

    Decent leather gun belt that won't break the bank?

    Another vote for Rafter S. I have two of their belts in sharkskin, one black, one brown--really kinda "cordavan". I wear the black almost every day. Great looking and comfortable. You can't go wrong.

    guns in public "once upon a time"

    Dig this if you will----when I was a freshman in high school, 1970/71, one of the gym "electives" you could take was riflery. The school had a pistol range under the cafeteria and we shot single-shot .22's on those NRA targets. I forget, but they were like 9 or 12 small targets on a sheet...

    Good discreet gun case?

    My favorite: http://www.quarterbore.com/ar15m16/toolbox.html Since you need to break the AR apart for this, maybe it would not violate any laws? I looked into doing this, but I could not find a 30"w. metal tool case, except on the web, and then it would cost almost $50.00. Still may do...

    Gunranges in New York

    Try this place: http://www.hrsa.nu/ It's a bit of a hike. 75 miles for me,--each way!, but 100 yds, and as long as you're controling your fire, you can do rapid fire. I've been killing some 2 liter soda bottles up there. . . course I clean them up afterwards. . . It's a small range, only...

    How to keep water in your BOB?

    Well, I dehydrate my water, so it takes up less room in my back. When I need it, I just add water to it, and presto, I've got my water!

    L.A. Times writer does not support troops.

    Yeah, at least he's honest about his views--not like most of the politicians, pundits, columnists, news anchors, and celebreties who can't quite work up the courage to say what they really feel. . . But also, just because we have the freedom to express our views in this country doesn't mean...

    Winchester Spotting Scope?

    Anybody have any experience with the 20-80 x 80 Winchester spotting scope? Saw one today in the latest Sportsmans Guide. They've got it for a bit over $200.00. I'm in the market for one. . . I know that when it comes to optics, you pay for what you get. . . I'd love to be able to afford a...

    New funnies from Sportman's Guide:

    Scout: maybe there is, but isn't that the point: How ridiculous is our society where we make a piece of paper illegal? How in the world can a piece of paper with a silhouette or photo be a danger to anyone in any way? There's the "letter of the law", and "the spirit of the law". Laws make...
