    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Bought a shotgun since that's what our esteemed leader said I should have. Beretta 1301 tactical with regular stock - added a flashlight mount and flashlight, a sling, and aridus crom rear ghost ring and a red dot. First semi-auto shotgun, I only ever owned pumps and side by sides before. Now I...

    SAA caliber choices?

    I like 45 Colt, but I reload so that makes it affordable. I have 2 new model vaqueros in 45 Colt with the 4.62 barrels and a Uberti 1873 rifle in 45 Colt with a 24 inch octagonal barrel. I have them for cowboy shooting and for plinking. I find something so satisfying about the 45 Colt cartridge...

    Sometimes It Is Rough Being A Gadget Junkie - Am I Alone?

    Well after seeing Offhand's posts, I'll have to say that I'm evidently not a gadget junkie or just a piker.

    Holster for CCW

    Simply Rugged Holsters Versa-clip looks interesting and the price of $60 dollars seems reasonable, may contact them and see. Any ideas on pouches for moon-clips? Appreciate the help, if I get something will post back on the results. Would enjoy having this gun as a carry option.

    Does anyone make a nice IWB holster or even OTWB holster for a Taurus Tracker Model 455 in 45acp with a 4 inch barrel and mag pouches for the moon clips? I would be in heaven.

    Illinois passes veto proof CC bill.

    Governor Quinn is just a speed bump in this equation. 60% vote needed in both houses to make it law and to override a veto. Quinn can veto it but with 75% votes in favor in both house and senate it will easily pass over his veto. Too many legislators scared of the court cliff and Madigan and...

    Illinois Gun Owners - action on CCW in Senate

    Well HB183 got passed out of committee and SB2193 got held up in committee. The witness slips filed by supporters or opponents on HB183 ran over 1,000 opposed - which is I believe a record for witness slips filed in opposition. No vote today in the Senate on HB183 - guess it will be tomorrow -...

    Changed my mind on universal background checks

    I've changed my mind on universal background checks and now think we should push for them without registration and the requirement that all background check information be destroyed after 24 hours except that a background check was run for the individual selling/gifting/transferring a gun or...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    Bush got in trouble on the statement that he would support a renewal of the AW ban - it first caused a furor in the gun rights community. Later, via the backdoor channel of Karl Rove - the word was put out that Bush had no interest in supporting a renewal of the ban and that it would never be...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    Well, Heller and McDonald would be the legal basis of a constitutional right to carry - and if decisions such as that rendered in Maryland prevail in a USSC case. However, constitutional carry is also a phrase used by advocates of open carry and often used to describe those states laws where...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    The NRA was not a large and powerful or sophisticated lobbying and political organization until after the 1968 gun control act. Prior to that they were primarily a hunting and marksmanship organization. In 1968, after the hysteria of the assassinations of President Kennedy, Martin Luther...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    The worst that could happen? Other than getting hit by an asteroid, nuclear war, worldwide pandemic, or total financial and economic collapse? But restricted to the RKBA. A USSC with a new majority hostile to the RKBA - rules on a case and overturns the Heller and McDonald decisions ruling...

    Any real legitimate threat put out by the NRA?

    Ya know, I have worked for thirty some years on the "gun issue" - throughout that whole time, year after year I have heard people on both sides of the issue say things to the effect that - "well it doesn't really matter" - or - "no one is threatening to take guns away" - or - "Oh, the NRA is...

    Which gives you more pleasure?

    Everything is better when you share it with a friend or someone you care about. Teaching someone to shoot, introducing someone to guns and the fun and responsibility of gun ownership is more pleasurable than any gun activity alone.
