    Question about purchasing a gun in CA

    Just to make this thread a bit more comprehensive, it should also be noted that CA has its own state AWB that is considerably more restrictive than the federal AWB (may it rest in peace). Some weapons are banned by name, and there is also a list of evil features that consitute an "Assault...

    Mall ninjaish video!

    The ninja are strong in this city. Btw, bullets are ineffective vs ninja. They are only vulnerable to hand-claws and throwing stars. Keep this in mind when determining your CCW loadout.

    Knife techniques

    "Krieghund, have you ever tried "trapping" the arm or anything like a break on a resisting partner? Hint: Fantasy. Won't work. Too complicated. He will cut you." 1. Opponent has knife = you getting cut. It's just a matter of where. Even most head-in-the-clouds McDojo instructors will admit...

    Knife techniques

    There are actual scenarios where something like this may come into play...no need to pull out the enemy occupation/breaking out of military prison card. Obviously no one on this forum goes around slashing peoples throats on a regular basis, but at least giving thought to how to do it isn't a bad...

    Coming attractions: "Cali SHTF" (earthquakes)

    I attended my brother's graduation at UCI last Saturday and I noticed that the street names changed on campus, but I didn't suspect jealousy as the cause, lol.

    Fighting the Good Fight in Oppressed States

    Democracy can be a witch, but that's how things go when you have an unpopular viewpoint. While there are a great many things I like about living here (family, friends, job, etc), I realized some time ago that my views on personal freedoms are in the minority, and that doesn't look to be changing...

    17-year-old dies after one punch

    "However... If someone takes a swing at me, I will assume they intend to do me at LEAST great bodily injury, and act acordingly." Artherd - you're entitled to your opinion and POV, but don't expect the law to agree with you on this one. There's always varying circumstances, but if a guy makes...

    What would you do if you discovered that the govt. was behind 9/11?

    Source? I always try to keep an open mind and question everything I see, hear, and read, but the pure logistics of such a conspiracy make it very difficult to believe. Generally speaking, the more people, agencies, and organizations involved in a secret plot, the less likely it is to remain...

    My first pair of converse all-stars, OR attempting mugging OR my cheek hurts realbad

    I'm not going to say there's any bad advice in this thread...but some of it is surprising. You didn't escalate the situation...a good idea when unarmed and out-numbered. Throwing blows on six guys without any backup isn't going to go well for you, and is a plan best avoided unless you want to...

    Why handguns?

    Don't forget handgun with a forward-seated magazine. So sinister, it hardly requires an operator to spread its evil.

    Do you use a night stand gun around kids?

    My main concern in having unlocked firearms stashed in my bedroom or anywhere else, is the chance that a burgler might discover the gun while looting my house while we're away at work/school. We live in a good neighborhood, but no one is immune to this sort of activity. I've considered...

    preban mags in CA?

    Wally - nah. But being able to recollect the date and place you purchased the mags (i.e. Pamona show, 1995, for example) is a good idea.

    preban mags in CA?

    Hey Luna, I'm a friend of Noid's...met you one time at ID4Con (at least I think that's where we were) No, you cannot legally purchase hi-cap mags in CA, regardless of their manufacturing date. End of story...at least for the time being :)

    trade goods

    If studies of ancient and recent history tell us anything, it's that people are going to seek entertainment once their bare necessities are met. If we're talking about a fairly low-tech society, this will come the form of altering their state of consciousness. Now, whether this is your bag or...

    "Bug In or Out" supplies - Honey?

    Thanks for the replies. I've never heard of "blackstrap molasses"...I'll have to check that out. Also, I don't quite understand the Mormon reference, but I've got some friends who swing that way, so I'll ask them about it. Muchas Gracias

    "Bug In or Out" supplies - Honey?

    I'm curious as to your opinions on honey as a stored food option. Here's the bonuses as I see them: * Potent energy source - lots of carbs packed into a small space * Doesn't spoil...presumably long shelf life * Can possibly be used as an anticeptic? Just something I read * Can improve the...

    Why some gun's grips has tapes wrapped around?

    Funny this question was asked. I noticed a tape-wrapped .38 snubby in "Anchorman" just the other day...had me wondering the same thing.

    Best Self Defense Method..Hand to hand?

    If fast results is your primary concern, you're best served finding a good boxing gym. You'll get cardio work, strength conditioning, and plenty of live sparring. Depending on your area, Muy Thai can fill a similar need. Common thought these days is to mix a striking style (such as those...
