    Which is ridiculous. The court should throw the golden parachute out.

    Jury finds NRA officers violated responsibilities

    The NRA had too many officers with million $ salaries while begging for $20 from blue collar members. Best thing to come out of this is it has made the NRA unable to engineer 2A sell-outs like the Brady Bill.

    New to me 1911 and the 250gr hardcast load

    Stout 255gr cast loads were popular at bowling pin shoots. I wouldn't worry about shooting any published load that uses them.

    Don't "Cotton" to the Old Guard

    A lot of this is log rolling. Ex-NRA insiders start up companies that the NRA then uses for mailings & other services - often these people are incompetent and the mailings go out after the election or they other wise screw stuff up.,

    Don't "Cotton" to the Old Guard

    The NRA is corrupt. The dirty secret is that gun rights is a potent political issue and any number of different groups can activate gun rights voters. Sadly the NRA tended to hurt gun rights by NOT going after establishment politicians in primaries. Worse they often covered for them.

    Anyone else buying off EBay ?

    Yup - ebay is often a great choice when you only want one or two small items and don't want to pay retail plus shipping.

    What’s the limiting factor of 45acp?

    Biggest limiting factor of 45acp is the fat cartridge limits mag capacity. I was carrying a 45acp Shield for awhile but that pistol with a spare mag limited me to 15 rds total. I decided to start carrying a 40s&w Glock 23 P80 with a full size spare mag to get a total of 29 rds. I think the...

    Try muzzleloader?

    I just ordered a Kibler Flint lock kit so I could take advantage of hunting during muzzleloaders season. Seems like the rut is pretty much over by the time rifle season starts in VA. I usually get bucks during second rut then. The modern muzzleloaders just seem stupid to me. I figure the...

    Anyone else buying off EBay ?

    Amazon also has issues with counterfeit goods - I'd be very leery of buying optics on Amazon if not from the OEM.

    Anyone else buying off EBay ?

    E-bay is good to buy cheap china made stuff. The buyer protection is strong - most sellers will quickly respond with replacements/refunds if there is an issue.

    Warning on Bear Basin Outfitters

    I finally got a refund after I called them back after the holiday. I find the hacking usually occurs because a small business didn't have good computer security.

    Warning on Bear Basin Outfitters

    Hmm... my credit card was hacked this AM. Bear Basin is my prime suspect (for having crappy security - not fraud) as they are the only new vendor I've dealt with lately....

    .44 Special or .455 Webley?

    I don't worry about shooting 45LC in a triplelock. The revolver was designed to shoot 44Special.

    Warning on Bear Basin Outfitters

    I was trying to buy the 3x18 50mm MRAD Optika 6. What did you not like about the Meopta scope and what did you end up purchasing?
