    Old Ammo

    I have a friend and neighbor who is retired Secret Service. He had about 50 rounds of .357 magnum. He said he's had the ammo for a long time...several years, maybe 20. He doesn't have a .357 handgun any longer and gave the ammo to me. I have a Ruger Security 6 in .357 and I'm wondering a bit...

    I've been watching the activism in VA

    It appears to me that the VCDL is able to organize thousands of patriotic Virginians as well as the NRA to also round up supporters and lobby the State government. If that is so, the VCDL and NRA should be lobbied to work together just as hard to seek out 2A supporters to run against the Ds in...

    Ruger Security Six 150 series grips

    Does anyone have any idea where one could purchase some larger grips for a Ruger Security Six in .357 mag, 150 series? Did a little Googling and it seems grips to fit the series 150 are hard to find.

    NRA and Sen. Harry Reid

    RedState this morning has reported that they have learned that NRA is leaning toward endorsing Sen. Harry Reid.:what: I'm a Life Member of the NRA and my father was a member before me. But if this info is correct, it boggles my mind. I'm not going to bash the NRA here. I believe in the...

    Mall Police

    I'll just throw this out for discussion: Since many malls attract the numbers of people that inhabit small towns, should malls consider creating their own sworn and fully trained and armed police forces. Perhaps hired through, but exclusively assigned to the mall by the county sheriff in...

    Wondering about the USO

    Mods. Slightly off topic...but since the military uses guns, maybe a little grace be granted. Do any of you with military service have an opinion about the USO? I'd like to add them to my list for contributions, but I'd like to know if they are good stewards and if those of you who have...

    Gun control discussion opportunity

    There is going to be a furor about more gun control laws being necessary. If you get an opportunity to have a discussion regarding this, here is a question or two or three that you should ask. If the purchase or exchange of all guns and ammunition were banned effective at midnight tonight, can...

    Andy Rooney, 60 Minutes tonight, 3-11-07

    Andy Rooney went off on a rant about our voluntary military. He did not have many kind things to say. Questioned the morals of our volunteers, said they didn't represent us well and even stated he did not like the men in his own artillery unit in 1941. His comments were despicable and very...

    Some interesting info from Iraq

    A little dated, but interesting none the less. I got this e-mail from a friend. It's a little dated and I can't swear to its veracity. However most of the info seems to match up with some reports that I received from a client's sons who were over in Iraq as well as some officer corp guys...

    S Dakota Pheasants

    On Nov. 4th I'll be making another trek to S Dakota for pheasants. One of my compadre's brother has purchased a farm south of I-90 between Mitchell and Chamberlain. I am wondering if the birds still wear kevlar vests as they did the last time I hunted out there. :eek:

    Good reading.

    Author CJ Box has a series of mystery books set in the Bighorn Range of Wyoming. His main characters are Joe Picket, a Wyoming Game Warden, and his family. Firearms play a prominent part in the stories. There are several books and they progress over time. I really recomend them as fun...
