    On-rifle storage options for cleaning stuff for AR15 carbine?

    I know there are all sorts of neat grips and stocks out there offering a fair amount of storage space, but wondered what options there might be that would allow one to carry a small amount of cleaning gear (like Otis stuff or maybe a boresnake AND some lube), without spending big bucks? Yeah, I...

    Underlug preference?

    Three guesses where I stand...;) Am I the only one who just does not care a whit for a full underlug? At least in the looks department, I guess with a powerful round there is some value in recoil reduction.

    Countering Bloomberg's latest $50mil offense against the 2A???

    So the basic answer is obvious. While there are people that support him, most of Bloomberg's "grass roots" are bought and paid for by his billions. On our side we have, what? Four to five million NRA members, and a great many more times that number of gun owners overall? If everyone chips...

    Help in identifying old H&R top-break?

    So tonight I came across an old Harrington & Richardson in what looks to be in great condition, sans some minor pitting on the barrel. The bore didn't look pristine, but I'm hoping it's just in need of a good cleaning. It was given to a relative who would like more info on it. I had nothing...

    Get people shooting with the Rifleman's Challenge!

    http://riflemanschallenge.com/ Now, Facebook is a big part of this as far as spreading the word and comparing your results with others. I fully understand being hesitant to go all-in on social media with this, especially these days. But who says you HAVE to if you don't want to? The...

    Thinking of getting started in a little reloading for .38-55 Winchester

    I've never really had much of an interest in handloading. Space is an issue, and I don't really shoot a lot volume-wise. But I do have a neat old .38-55 lever gun...and ammo for it is crazy-expensive. The last I bought, in between the panic-buying sprees of 2008 and 2013, was $2.75 a round...

    CNN (& others?) claiming pro-2A Senators taking a hit in polls...

    ...of course, when they also at least admit that the Bloomberg $-machine is going after them with both barrels, a thinking person realizes that "they" are probably able to carefully select the people they poll...:fire: So how do we fight back against a media that is helping carry on Obama's...

    Did I blow a chance at getting a Colt 1917 at a good price?

    Some backstory - Went to a gun show this weekend, set myself a $500 budget - which isn't much but even that was arguably too much at the moment. Wasn't looking for anything in particular. Thought I could do with a .22 handgun of some sort, so had an eye out for something in that department...

    Gun/etc makers that need our PRAISE and SUPPORT...

    It's so easy to focus on attacking the people you have to fight, sometimes we forget to praise the people that are standing by our side at risk to themselves (financially at the very least). I'd like to compile a list of gunmakers and others in the industry and contact info, to have a...

    "NRA Members" Gun Safety Act of 2013? Really?

    https://www.popvox.com/bills/us/113/hr21/report#nation http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/hr21/text Where do they get off presenting it as an NRA proposal? May I assume that "truth in labeling" laws do not apply to legislation? With universal background checks, requirements for...

    How to respond to your doctor if s/he asks you about gun ownersip?

    No, not "get a new doctor!" - that comes later. I mean right then... I'd assume the answer could vary depending on where you fit in on the scale: A) Vocal pro-2A proponent B) Someone who only a very few people, if at all, would know or even suspect you own firearms. I'd suspect that...

    Don't forget our friends & allies / contacting manufacturers...

    I was aware of the Ruger webpage to contact elected officials ( http://www.ruger.com/micros/advocacy/takeAction.html ) but not until this morning about how strongly the company felt about pushing back against all the kneejerk gun control measures being slung around. Ironically I have NPR to...

    A sig line to "motivate" people to get involved in pro-2A activism...

    ...or maybe "shame" could be a better word. You know the saying, "keep working, millions on welfare depend on you?" It made me think of this: "Keep doing pro-RKBA activism - each one of you is carrying the weight of at least 20 lazy gun owners that can't be bothered to defend their rights."...

    Pro2A (or on the fence) DEM Senators we can work on?

    No matter WHO your Reps/Senators are, they need to hear from you that you don't want any more infringements on the 2A. That said, I was wondering if there are any Democrats in the Senate we can count as allies, or ones we might be able to sway to our side? Those people MUST CERTAINLY hear from...

    Examples to use to counter "you couldn't win against a tyrannical gov anyway!"

    Seen lots of comments around to that effect lately, that 'we the people' would get utterly annihilated if it came down to having to overthrow the government. I think history, and current events, show it wouldn't be that cut and dry. Looking for some good examples, and thoughts on what I have...
