    New Indoor Range in St. Louis Metro Area

    I don't know if anyone else has mentioned Metro Shooting Supply has opened their indoor range in St. Ann, MO. It's on Rock Road about 2 blocks west of Lindbergh. The people there are very friendly and helpful, and no attitude. (Which I would expect, it's a new joint and they want lots of repeat...

    I just received this email from GOC (Gun Owners of Calif)

    Or perhaps I meant Sam Farr I trusted my hometown paper on spelling. D'oh

    More Pink Pistols -- and I need models

    Pink Triangle You're absolutely correct XavierBreath. The Pink Triangle became a symbol of power for gays for 'never again' aspect. [It's also the symbol for a publishing company that specializes in gay literature.] (in the same way that gays use the term 'queer' as in 'Queer Nation', a very...

    What's the oldest gun you own ?

    I've got a Spencer brand 10 gauge from the 1860's-'70's. That my uncle left me. My mother gave the Parker 12 to my cousin. My eldest brother got the old doctor's .50 plains rifle (Late 1830's we think)

    My SKS

    So, will the rail on the handguard actually support stuff (scout mount, etc.) or is it just cool looking? I've really been eyeing the stock kits, but SHE insists on our money being used for rent, food, all that unimportant stuff. zastros

    Pistoleer vs Martial arts expert..any stories?

    A funny bit of trivia(to me at least) about that scene. It was supposed to be a great fight between Indy (with his whip) and the swordsman. But when they started to choreograph the fight, Harrison Ford was sick with the flu, or beri-beri, or some such. (If you look at the scene, he looks like...

    Best St. Louis shops?

    If you're a collector, Tom Knox at Alamo Military Collectibles on the south side is your man. If he doesn't have it/know about it, he's very good about sending you to someone who does. [And generally, there's a pretty good peanut gallery in back so you can watch the floor show.;) ]

    Lasers For Police?

    I'd like to second the intimidation factor of that red dot on the chest. A LEO friend of mine works North STL and he says that the 'perps' up there will stop on a dime as soon as that dot hits them.

    Good TEOTWAWKI Books?

    The black and white version of "The Omega Man" or "I am Legend" was "The Last Man on Earth" (1964) starring Vincent Price. I also enjoyed the "Dies the Fire" series by S.M. Stirling. Just try not to pay attention to his photo on the flyleaf. ;) (Though if I judged every book by the...

    Christmas with my anti-gun family

    I've had this one too. When it was important to keep the peace I said to the offending party, "Look, I'll debate you on the issue some other time if it's really important to you, but I don't want to break up a nice get together by fighting about this. Do you?" This put him in the position...

    does it make sense to boycott movies with rabid anti-gun actors?

    Theater revenue is down mostly due to the studio practice of releasing most films to video/dvd within 3 months of premiere, often while it's still playing in 1st run theatres. Most people decide that it's easier to wait rather than blowing $50 or so (tickets, parking, babysitter, 55 gal. drum...

    does it make sense to boycott movies with rabid anti-gun actors?

    In most cases, I'd like to think so. And many of us can spell. :rolleyes: zastros

    MO LTC incidents?

    I was talking with a coworker, (who's more of a 'gun-nut' than me, nice surprise) and the subject of LTC came up. Has anyone seen any stats on defensive use of LTC in MO. I haven't yet. Of course I realize that the vast majority of incidents (I showed them the gun, they ran away) wouldn't show...

    Strange question...

    And not just sheets. Have a vest made of it and then they'd never be sure if your carry piece had printed or not. Or just open your coat. "Lord, boy! Don't mess with him. Can't you see how many he's packin'?";) And what lil' highroader wouldn't want a 2A "Armed Bear" ?:) Wait...

    Mom's worried and giving me a hard time, again!

    For the most part, my gun ownership doesn't affect my mother at all [though she did give a Parker 12 gauge that had been promised to me to one of my cousins:banghead: ] My problem is that my wife, who tolerates my 'hobbies', is starting to make noises now that our son has started...

    Smack these TV idiots please!! Worst abuse ever of term "Sniper"

    It's all about the alliteration. The "Salisaw Sick-Minded Shotgunner" just doesn't parse very well. zastros
