    "Thank God I Had a Gun" Book

    Has anyone here read the book "Thank God I Had a Gun"? I ordered it off of Amazon after hearing Tom Gresham interview the author on Gun Talk. After getting it I couldn't stop reading it. I even caught my wife reading it and she doesn't care about guns. One interesting thing I took away from the...

    My Facebook Activism

    I have a few rabid anti-gun people as friends on Facebook. One guy in particular that I get along with pretty well as an online friend is extremely vocal about his feelings on the subject. Every so often I write my own little diatribe. I just posted this earlier on my Facebook page. Disclaimer...

    Bad Gun Store Experience

    It has been a long while since I have posted on this forum. I usually just use it as a resource, but I have to relate my recent experience using the FFL of a local gun store. So I let my buddy know I was going to order an AR from Bud's Gun Shop. I told him to let me know if he becomes aware of...

    http://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/local/breakingnews/orl-bk-kicks-for-guns-081409,0,2158289.story I'd copy and paste the story itself but I want you to see the pen gun. I have one question about this story. Was that WWII pen gun worth more than a fifty dollar gift card? It seems to me...

    Pepper Spray

    What in your opinion is the best pepper spray? I just purchased two cans of "The Disabler" 15% OC spray from the local army surplus store. Does anyone have any experience with this brand of pepper spray?

    dumbest thing I've ever seen.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEVYZ8dhs7I I've never heard of this movie. I stumbled upon this clip looking for awesome movie gun scenes on you tube. It doesn't even make sense?

    Blue Velvet made me happy

    I watched David Lynch's Blue Velvet the other day and saw something I've never seen in a movie before. Dennis Hopper was firing his pistol with a suppressor on it, and he was pulling back the slide and cycling the pistol manually after each shot. Crazy.

    Questions about National Guard

    This is kind of a second amendment question. My friend and I were debating about what well regulated militia meant. I brought up the question if it did (for the sake of argument) mean National Guard then can the National Guard protect a state from the Federal government, or does the federal...

    Greek guns

    My wife is Greek but could care less about guns. I keep trying to drag her to the range, but no such luck. I was wondering are there any good Greek war rifles or handguns that are fairly reasonably priced and aren't too hard to come by? Maybe I'll look into getting one to help pique her interest.

    The Philadelphia hypocrisy

    I live in PA and I was reading up on CCW laws. I knew that I couldn't concealed carry in Philadelphia, because that would leave the criminals at a disadvantage. What surprised me was that you can't carry a stun-gun in Philly. My question to any physical cosmologist's or any kind of...

    Which would you prefer XD .45 with or without thumb safety

    I have an XD .45, I bought it long before this was an option. If you guys bought one now which one would you pick up, the service model with the thumb safety, or the regular old XD .45 ACP. I'm on the fence about it. I think the thumb safety would take me a while to get used to, plus I can't...

    lee enfield question

    I have a Lee Enfield Number 4 MK 1. It shoots dead accurate, but it shoots about 6 inches high at 60 yards. Is there anyway to raise the front sight, or are there any ways to modify the front to make it higher without hurting the historical value?

    Anti-Gun investing

    I just recently bought some shares of a certain mutual fund, and have come to find that they are anti-gun. They even hold anti-gun violence benifits:( I hate my life:p Also, my wife recently set up an Roth IRA and her financial advisor was showing us funds and some of them would not hold...

    top things the media gets wrong

    I notice just about every time anyone here links an article or video from the media demonizing guns and gun owners, they always present glaring inaccuracies. For instance I saw one on here today where the Orlando Sentinal said someone used a "38 caliber Keltec automatic" (in the same article...

    The Pinky show

    This show on you tube makes me angry as hell. I don't know why I even watch it. It's this poorly animated cartoon cat the preaches it's opinion about everything while pretending to be objective. This one made me particularly angry. I had an arsenal of toy guns when I was little. Pretending...

    How often do you clean your guns?

    I'm just wondering. I clean my guns every time I get home from shooting them. My dad on the other hand hasn't cleaned his since Reagan was president. I've actually felt bad for his guns and cleaned them for him.
