    If I have an NRA credit card do I keep it?

    My understanding is there was some tiny small percentage donation made to the NRA with every transaction you made (I never was able to find out what that was other than a vague statement about supporting NRA programs). They gave you a credit on your first statement for $35 or $40. They also...

    If I have an NRA credit card do I keep it?

    I had that card for awhile. The benefits of the card weren't that great to you or the NRA. If you have good credit and don't carry debt on it cancel it and go get a better card with better benefits. If you feel that strongly about donating to the NRA, there are multiple cash back cards that...

    Examples of recent rebellions/civil wars where semi-auto rifles critical to the rebels' success?

    Afghanistan. They've bogged down the two largest superpowers in the world. While arguments could be made that politics played a role in the success or failure of those wars, they managed to drag out conflicts long enough to have the USSR and the USA to all but abandon their goals and leave...

    Sen. Feinstein to introduce legislation to make owning a rifle have an age requirement of 21 yo

    I have no problem about a conversation regarding the age of adulthood. There is absolutely no consistency in our laws currently. Drive at 16. Drink at 21. Vote at 18. Parents medical till 26 . . . etc. I know it seems each generation looks at the next generation and says it’s going to hell...

    NRA Supports Ban on Bumpfire Devices

    I will continue to say this until I'm blue in the face. You're not compromising by giving up bump stocks, you're agreeing to the first step in the argument that rate of fire should be regulated. It is yet another back door approach that ends with semi autos. They will never quit. They are...

    Sacrifice Bump Stocks to save Silencer bill?

    1. You cannot negotiate with anti-gunners. They are content to play the long game and chip away. How do you negotiate with people in good faith who are not even honest about their intentions to begin with? How many times have you heard an anti gun politician state they don't want to take guns...

    Labor Day gun deals

    Bought an Aero Stripped upper w/o M4 feed ramps. They're running 15% off and free shipping on their website through Monday. Going to convert an older A2 Bushmaster upper to a flat top.

    Simplisafe home security anyone have it? Does it work?

    I had Simply Safe at my previous home when I was renting. The home we bought had a hard wired system already installed so we left the security system at the rental. This was 3 years ago, so I'm assuming there have been some changes, but overall, it served its purpose and we were happy with the...

    Wireless Home Security Systems?

    I have a Simplisafe system in our home. It's pretty basic, very easy to install, and they have been quick to call when the system is tested or has gone off. That being said, I have no children or pets and our place is smaller ~ 1300 sq ft. If you have a larger home, I'm not sure how well...

    Goto Walmart Goto Walmart Goto Walmart!

    Or new stores specializing in ammo sales will open to fill the economic gap left by Walmart not selling ammo. This is just part of the economic cycle. Specialize, compete, or die.

    House passes VT gun bill

    Whether or not of this bill will do anything positive or negative, I'm not sure, but I can say that anything that is passed as knee jerk reaction to a tragedy is usually a sensationalized piece of junk that does nothing but trade freedom for security.

    The Mysterious and exotic Carbon Fiber. What else can we make with it?

    Check out the C6 Z06. Many of the panels on the vehicle are already Carbon Fiber, and the ALMS Corvettes have been carbon fiber since the late 90s. I'd be a little worried about a Kaboom with a carbon fiber gun. Carbon Fiber shards are very sharp. Not saying a carbon fiber gun would...

    Who won the debate?

    My favorite part was when Kucinich got out his pocket constitution, and started to lecture everyone about how he took an oath to protect it. I guess when he took the oath, he got to pick and choose which parts he did and did not want to protect. I watched about 5 minutes worth of the...

    What If?? CCL stops gunman.

    The media would find students that would get on camara and say something to the effect, "I can't believe that someone is allowed to just carry a gun around like that." While they would present the permit holder somewhat as a hero, they would find plenty of idiots to question the reason for...

    Walther 22 was bought online

    How long till some idiot liberal says, "Its time to close the online gun loop hole." My guess is . . . not long.

    European gun laws

    http://www.crimestatistics.org.uk/output/page108.asp Poking around on this website that provides crime stats for England, I've found that your premise that crime is down is wrong. 1.) You are looking at the wrong statistics. All crime is down as you have pointed out, but look at violent...

    MSNBC Women's Self Defense Article

    I did the same thing. I clicked on it to see if they would have the typical "be a good victim" crap. Good to see that some people still recognize self defense with a firearm as a good thing.

    Caught them in the act

    First, after reading the situation, I agree with twenty711, I don't think I would have wanted to deal with the situation without my CCW. There is the possiblity as others have pointed out, that the situation could have turned ugly. Second, as for the debate about whether protection of...

    I voted Makarov, but would recommend it in 9X18mm.
