    Apparently bears repeating-- BE CAREFUL!!!!

    I do not see enough evidence here that the cop was "stupid." We do not know exactly what happened so saying the officer was stupid is a big jump in my opinion.

    Good price for .22

    Of course depends on some factors but it is a steal in my estimation at this time in the .22 game.

    A story about a good rifle ruined by a bad gunsmith...

    Sounds like you should have taken it to small claims court.

    How long did your carry permit take to complete?

    In Iowa with a DD-214 as a veteran (probably requirement for honorable discharge but not sure) it took me about 5 minutes to be in the Sheriff's department, fill out a brief form, pay them $50 (for 5 years) and the permit was mailed to me 3 days later. To clarify, that is a concealed carry...

    What do you call these doodads?

    Go to places like Lowe's and paint supply stores, hardware, etc. They have paint daubers (my term) that are little wooden handles with a dark styrofoam like end like you show in the photo. They are very, very inexpensive and would be much smarter than spending a lot of money at a place like...

    I'm bored

    People who suggested getting away from guns and shooting a bit are the best ideas in my opinion. Stop with the guns and shooting and go spend time with family or reading something unrelated to guns like someone else suggested. I think of the advice I have seen multiple times..."There is no one...

    Iowa cops: If someone in your house has a CCP, it is grounds for a no-knock SWAT raid

    There appears to be a lot more to this than what is originally posted here. The Police Chief held a press conference and gave their side of this issue and, to me, on the surface it appears not nearly as egregious, if it is at all, as what it is originally made to sound. The subjects of this...

    2nd Amendment lost in CT today

    Chief, you missed the point We are ruled by laws and the courts are the interpreters of the laws and the constitution. So, the 2nd amendment says that the right to keep and bear arms should not be infringed. Thus, some one or some group has to define what that means and define what the word...

    2nd Amendment lost in CT today

    So, Chief why are nuclear weapons often referred to as NUCLEAR ARMS? They are in fact arms. Arms are not just guns and knives.

    How to deal with anti-gun parents?

    Simply refuse to talk about it and make that a rule that you refuse to discuss politics and religion with them and that includes guns, gun laws, etc. Just make it very firmly clear that these are not topics for discussion and that if he/they persist in attempting to talk about these things you...

    2nd Amendment lost in CT today

    Well, Chief et al "shall not be infringed" when taken literally would, of course, mean no infringement at all on the right to keep and bear arms. So, using that premise I should be able to keep an atomic explosive weapon in my basement and a 88 mm howitzer in my front yard. So, it becomes a...

    Could walmart (et al) put a stop to this ammo shortage?

    The so-called hoarders and gougers or whatever you wish to call them are just following the path of our Capitalistic/Free Market economy (with some modifications in our laws.) You may not like what they are doing but they have a legal right to do what millions of other Americans are doing...

    Question about the term "clips"

    I am on the side of being relaxed about this and not being so uptight and perfectionistic about, and I might say, being completely humorless about it. For heaven's sake..this is not boot camp. I just hate it when I say something like "45 Long Colt" on a forum and somebody has to point out...

    Question about the term "clips"

    The point I am trying to make is about communication...I did not mean to say that Marlin Company was correct. I am trying to say that if words communicate enough information for the conversation at hand then...that is sufficient. It is sort of like the fact that the word "ain't" is incorrect...
