    New 2a argument to use against elitist snobs

    When pheasants start bearing arms, I'll be all for gun control.

    Looking for a range near Denver,Co.

    I go to the Family Shooting Center in Cherry Creek State Park, and Lead Valley Range out in Byers. There's also Centennial Gun Store which has an indoor range, but I haven't used them yet.

    The good old days...

    From http://www.westegg.com/inflation/ What cost $135 in 1973 would cost $654.97 in 2010. What cost $32.5 in 1973 would cost $157.68 in 2010. Looks like a pretty decent deal on the 1911.

    "American Guns" TV show.....

    I've had a half-dozen or so background checks in Colorado this year, and all of them took about an hour. I believe Colorado requires a state-level check besides the national one. I've certainly heard from people in Oregon that theirs take only 10', give or take. That said, two points: - if this...

    The Last Gun I'd Ever let Go Of

    The last gun I'd want to get rid of would be my Beretta 92FS. But given the premise that I'm broke, I'd want to get as much cash as possible, so I'd keep a cheap gun. Between the Neos and the LCP, the latter is the more useful, so that's the one I'd keep.

    Dangerous Cities

    The reason it's not included is right in the article: it's limited to cities of 200,000 or more.

    Opening the machine gun registry

    You see how easy it is to create new regulations?

    Open carry or concealed?

    I'm thinking that a criminal who wants a cheap firearm might try to sneak up on an OC, bop them on the head, and help themselves to whatever the OC is carrying.

    Here is a good one about Massachusetts

    Farmers have access to large quantities of fertilizer and diesel. These are compounds often used in the manufacture of explosives that are used in terrorism. Farmers must be outlawed.

    How About A THR Cookout?

    After all I've read on THR about New York's gun laws, I wouldn't put that state at the top of my list.

    Denied? Why was I denied??

    Do the Feds have to reply within a certain timeframe? If so, they might just delay you if they're overwhelmed to buy themselves some time, and then get back to your application when they're whelmed.

    Denied? Why was I denied??

    Being a substance abuser, or renouncing your US citizenship also count, if I recall correctly.

    Bicycle ambush

    No. The through street's right of way does not depend on markings on the side street, but on signs on the through street itself that give it that right. This one gives the through street the right of way at the next intersection: This one gives the through street the right of way until...

    Coalition to stop gun violence thinks there aren't enough prohibited users

    "name", "enumerated", and "lose". But what do I know, English is my third language.

    Carry as POTUS, Part II

    The comparison with O's blackberry was really inane. A gun couldn't be used to send security-sensitive information. Nor could a gun be attacked by a hacker. There's simply no comparison between the national security implications of a firearm and a communications device that uses servers in...

    What are gun shows good for?

    Loopholes. Can't find better ones than at the gun show. In fact, now that i think about it, I need to go to the next gun show that's coming to town to pick up a box or two.

    UK has higher violent crime rate than USA?

    I'd be wary of those per capita numbers. The site shows total crimes for my native Belgium as about 1 million, and for the US as about 12 million. Given that the population of Belgium is about 10 million, vs 360 million for the US, you'd expect to see Belgium much higher than the US is the...
