    Sean Penn armed w/ a shottie!

    Nice picture on the Drudge Report showing Sean Penn trudging through the waters in NO carrying a shotgun, byline says his fans are shocked. Maybe he confiscated it from somebody's home. Two bit left wing celebrities never fail to amaze me.

    What would you buy if the ban was coming?

    Just out of curiousity, if a nationwide AWB coupled w/ a ban on .50bmg rifles was going to be effective in say 6 months and anything up to that time would be grandfathered in, what would you stock up on now and how would you pay for it? What rifles, receivers, ammo, parts, reloading equipment...

    Swedish Mauser Question

    dowel through triggerguard

    Might seem like a dumb question, and I did search, but why do some people have some sort of a rod or dowel through the triggerguard when they take pictures of the weapons? Is it to prop up the weapon for a more favorable angle or is there some other reason? Thanks.

    C&R Purchases from Non-FFL sellers

    Hate to say it but I have had my C&R for 2 yrs. w/o purchasing anything. Now I'd like to buy a Garand from a non-ffl individual in another state. Do those of you with C&Rs know of any problems with this besides the usual buyer beware?

    Buying from a custom shop

    Anyone know how to go about buying a gun from a factory custom shop? Do you have to go through a dealer or can you deal directly with the shop yourself, then take delivery through a dealer? Thanks in advance. :)

    Germans(57%) think we're Warmongers

    How ironic that the nation that dragged us into the two biggest wars of the 20th century now see's us as a nation of warmongers. Should we now feel chastened? Source of above poll seen on the drudgereport.

    Any ideas or suggestions as to the best way to stash one or two guns and their ammo if things went to hell?

    MD to use sniper tips to sniff out guns

    Sobering story on the Drudge Report about Maryland Police using the thousands of tips that came in during the sniper brouhaha to crack down on illegal gun possesion in the state of Maryland. Law of unintended consequences seems to apply everywhere.
