Love the state, hate the people (present company excepted) :) I'm actually somewhat jaded as my job has me in coastal CA where the majority of the nuttiness takes place. Head East and inland, and you'd think you were in Texas based on the political discussions you might overhear in a diner...

Unfortunately as mentioned above, the majority of CA gun owners simply don't care (or don't care until after the fact) or work under the illusion that "it will never pass". This became pretty clear to me back when I used to regularly attend the gunshows. NRA reps would be walking the lines of...

The Turkish Mausers a couple of years ago when they were going for $35 a pop. Possibly one of the Mosin Nagant variants out there now. I wouldn't "shoot and dispose of", but they're both cheap arms that do a fine job.

Thanks arcticap! :)

I'm about positive I'm getting a Cabela's 12 gauge BP double for my birthday next week. Anyone have one and do you have any good load recommendations to start with? Figured I'd try and bust some dove to start with. I've got some ffg and some 7 1/2 shot laying around.

Get the second can. I had a similar problem in one of my safes right after I bought it. After getting a second can, I can go for a couple of months without recharging. One would think the silica manufacturers would err on the side of buying more of their product when they recommend the silica...

Usually foam plugs under electronic muffs, even outdoors. When I'm bird hunting, mostly foam earplugs, though for dove I've started wearing my electronic muffs when I'm hunting from a stand. My dad lost a lot of his hearing via his job, where even though they needed to, nobody wore hearing...

Interesting, since in my experience men I know who own guns tend to get much less "riled" in a given situation than those who don't. In fact my own experience has been that men I work with who are vehemently anti-gun are much more prone to fits of rage and / or throwing things over situations...

Frankly, I'm getting sick and tired of all this blowhard "day without a Mexican" nonsense. How about a "day without anybody except for illegal immigrants" day? You wanna see real economic paralysis and chaos? Let the rest of us all take the same day off work.

Note to self: No more browsing THR while drinking morning coffee.

I think it would be kinda funny for someone with the know-how to create a "honeypot" gun forum and lure Gunkid into it. Have a few people start him going, then introduce an AI program like those "computer psychologist" ones with a few virtual personalities that answer each of Gunkid's posts. Let...

I was given a dual subscription to Outdoor Life and Field & Stream as a gift. I actually find Outdoor Life to be very pro-gun. I have seen many pro-gun articles and editorials on non-hunting firearms, including "assault weapons" over the last two years. Field & Stream is the John Kerry of...

Well, I'm simply curious as to where representatives of the NAACP and mainstream Feminist Movement are during this. Why are they not representing their constituency? Oh yeah.... right.

Did the uniforms include brown shirts???

I was thinking bow at first too, but seem to remember the distance might have been too far for that as well. Since I'm telecommuting today, maybe this is a good excuse to blow off work and pop the DVD in to see how far away they were. It's important research after all... :D

At the risk of thread drift into strategies and tactics, and because this is a serious subject (because I KNOW we will have a zombie attack someday), How would you guys have gotten food and water to Andy? I haven't watched the movie in a while, but I'm pretty sure he was too far away to turn a...

I think Kate looks WAY better without makeup. I didn't record the episodes, but from what I remember, Rosseau was carrying something that looked like a 98K. I though Michael was shooting something that looked like a .22 Marlin or Mossberg would have produced in the '70s. I also saw Zeke...

A big pet peeve of mine during that administration. We're not a monarchy, we voted for A President, not a husband and wife tag team. She should have been spending her time at the White House baking cookies. And if we ever have a married woman as President, the husband should be spending his time...

It seems to vary by area. If you drive through the Eastern Sierra around HWY395 / Mammoth, the forest service does controlled burns there all the time, as does the NPS in Yosemite. The big fires in San Diego though, were partially blamed on NOT doing controlled burns down there. The reasons...

Morgan Fairchild?? Say it ain't so....
