    Twitchy Situation Near Private Range

    Why did the cows cross the road? Yup, exactly what I thought, I know this one. That was Wednesday morning and my youngest had walked the dogs while I was just getting from the sack. She found me in the kitchen and popped her question, then gave me a look like ...you really are the slow one...

    Police Magnum Lost In These Spare Parts

    As I mentioned in an earlier post ...we've been helping my in-laws clean out a storage building on their property. Buried beneath many assorted boxes and items were a few interesting discoveries including a Remington 12 Gauge, which we're pretty certain has never been shot. We also found large...

    A SERIOUS GUN STORAGE WARNING

    Before gun safes were common, the long guns in my family were kept in large wooden display cases, the types with glass doors. The largest was in my grandfather's study and held all the family's hunting firearms, rifles and shotguns of many types, most collected before I was born. For years as...

    Thunderdome welcomes you...

    This seems like bad fiction, but I guess it's not. For the duration of the new hyper-hyped Chinese flu, burglars and home violators have been allotted and blessed with OPEN SEASON by Philadelphia's top cop: "PHILADELPHIA - In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, Philadelphia police officers have...

    You Never Know

    Some months back I posted about a new neighbor who confused a car backfiring to "shots fired" and called 911. Knowing that this new neighbor was from California, we ended up making LA-type jokes with the LEOs who came calling, and all was forgotten. But then right before New Year my wife took...

    A Real Sorry State

    ...not sure where to post this item or if it's been posted before ...but I found it chilling. Curious as to anyone's opinion. https://dailycaller.com/2019/12/20/new-zealand-gun-buy-back-fails/ Many New Zealand gun owners have refused to participate in a mandatory buyback program of...

    HAPPY ENDING -- Goodwin's Rifle From 1775 Found At Barn Sale

    SAY WHAT?

    https://is.gd/SSuGqo So this nice old man answers the door for a stranger because "you never know when somebody needs help." By the time the incident concludes, a shotgun has been TEST FIRED for the first time and these words are spoken: "...just lay still ...help is coming." A very tidy...

    The Magic Gun Genie

    Of course we all know better than to expect movies to deliver historic fact or technical reality, but there are times when it's obviously important and so shame on HOLYWOOD'S biggest lefties for failing to make more of an effort. I don't watch much TV, this subject came from a private school...

    CONFESSIONS: What Did You Do... crime and punishment

    When my sister called tonight and said "...well, well, well, is anyone in the mood for a little Halloween trick or treat?" I felt a chill. And that is a chill we come upon each and every Halloween. We laugh at it now. But once it was a life changing event, the dumbest damn thing we had ever...

    BANG BANG BOOM

    I don't even know how to react to some events in new America ...if you do, let's have it. I live in Arizona, foothills of the valley. Yesterday morning I was helping a buddy with a Pontiac he had shipped from the east, an old family car with a 389 and twitchy three deuce setup. The car had...

    Of course we all knew this was coming but NRA took a creative approach, which at a future date promises a way to measure damages from defamation.

    Walmart consolidation thread

    On Tuesday night, Tucker Carlson (Fox) was the only spokesman for common sense to be found as regards Wally World, gun grabbing hysteria, and the reality of current political suggestions that are taking the tone of demands. Said Mr. Carlson: "Walmart, after having destroyed American retail and...

    If your firearms could talk

    As I was thinking about Troy Fairweather’s post, counting firearms in my family over 100 years old, I started wondering about the history such weapons have survived. With farms and general stores in my family, there was always interesting firearms, and my grandfather used to joke that our...
