As a pastor, I would tend to agree with the assertion that the U.S. Constitution is "man's law" and not "God's Law". It is not holy scripture. Having said that, I completely disagree with Catholic Review's view that we should repeal the 2nd Amendment. The U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights...

Nope. The enemy is not us. It may be annoying to not be able to find the firearms and ammunition we want, but we would not be experiencing these shortages if it were not for the threat of a common, self proclaimed, and well defined enemy. We must all hang together or we shall all surely hang...

Did you see where one of the state reps "reminded" everyone how you don't really need a gun to defend yourself since the folks who disarmed Gabrielle Giffords' attacker without one while he was busy reloading. Ah yes, brilliant. Thanks for the reminder. So I'm just supposed to wait out an...

Been into several gun stores in West Tennessee and here is what I have found, some encouraging, some disgusting: L&A Firearms in Union City- they wanted $2499 for a Colt 6920 and $750 for an M&P Shield. All of their tacticool rifles were wearing jacked up price tags. DPMS's for $2000+ and...

This would be the first I have seen ANY mention of a saiga 12 being at the scene. Where are you getting that from?

So we got home from the holidays over the weekend and we noticed that our neighbors across the street (husband is a fellow pastor here in town) are driving what looks like a new car. Wife asks them if they got a new car and it turns out it was a rental. On their way back home from visiting...

Right here on the High Road trading post of course! Seriously, I've sold lots of guns and gun related items both locally and via shipping to an FFL out of state right here on the high road or other similar forums.

Lying in bed and I just got a text from a neighbor saying that a psych ward patient just escaped from St. John's Mercy Hospital a quarter mile from my house. Doors are locked, cocked, locked, ready to rock, and all that. No word on whether he's considered dangerous or what his condition is. I...

You know, I see a lot of guys around here who take the fam into Cabelas or Bass Pro on a saturday and dad's sporting his mossy oak shirt and a pair of hunting boots. What's he planning to do, jump shoot mallards in the parking lot? Not likely. I can think of at least a couple of times when I...

I can personally attest that a photo copy of a TX hunter's safety certification card satisfies their training requirement. If you've taken and passed hunter's safety that's all you need.

Haven't read the whole thread but it bares repeating if its been said: Buy a backup copy of whatever you consider your "go-to" guns. Jeff Cooper said it best: "Two is one, and one is none". If you've got kids and/or grandkids get guns to pass down to them, especially ones that you think may...

Yeah, I saw the thing about the CITES tag so I called TPW today about getting the tag and the warden I spoke with said that I had to have a current TX hunting permit to even possess the cat. Being a MO resident I don't have a Texas permit, but thankfully my dad and brother both do. I did think...

It was weird. He kind of did what i call the "stupid squirrel" move. My dad saw him from the passenger seat squatted down about 10 yards from the road. We were doing about 60 and as w got closer he ran at us like he was either trying to catch us or like he thought he could beat us across the...

He's a pretty nice looking cat IMO, and seems to be pretty good sized for a Texas bobcat. He's more dark grey than the usual tan color that I see on most of them.

So I'm down in Texas at my parents farm where I grew up for thanksgiving, and earlier this afternoon I hit a nice Tom bobcat with our car. Needless to say, the car won. Pulled over to take a look at the bumper and the cat and was surprised to see that he was in pretty good condition, allbeit...

Agreed. Cabelas will especially try to screw you. Probably offer you $75 for the taurus and $200 for the ruger depending on the condition and type of scope you have on it. You're better off trying to sell at the gun show or here on THR.

Interesting story, but what's it have to do with the discussion at hand? ^^^^ I'm still waiting for the answer to this rather crucial question.

If you want to truly use them as *back up* iron sights, then you can't go wrong with the Magpul MBUS. I have them on one rifle and a troy rear on another rifle (with a fixed front sight). The Troy is solid as a rock and really slick, but the MBUS is very practical, light, low cost, and more...

For hunting what?

I've seen several quotes like this in this thread, and I and I humbly disagree. I think it's kind of neutral in the stand (or could possibly get in the way, depending on your setup), but on a stalk or a drive, there just simply are not better ergos than a "pistol griped rifle" when properly...
