Re: Breaking The Gun Control Stalemate (Article)

In my opinion the Gun Control Stalemate entails an underlying reality that can't be broken. The framers of the Constitution included the RKBA as a balance for a tyrannical, over-reaching government. I'm confident that the framers would be aghast at the oft-taken position that citizens are, or should...

Re: A little more cautious with "printing" now?

Add a vote for 'the sheeple don't notice'. On a temp assignment, I lived in downtown Charlotte, NC since it allowed me to walk to work. There were resturants and place to eat all within walking distance. No carry at work so the walk to and from work was unarmed but, NC has open carry. After I got ho...

TAM, I looked for the article online for a link so I didn't have to type in the data in the previous post... didn't find it. If you are interested I'll scan it and ship it to you.

Re: XDm Compact in 45ACP - opinions anyone?

Hmmm... I've got an XDm 9mm, an XD45 Compact, my EDC is an XDs, my wife's EDC is an XDs, I've got and XDm 45 on the way. I guess that kinda sums up my opinion of the XD line.

Yes, Dear, I'll Buy an Assault Weapon Immediately

So, the Mrs. was (and remains) quite put out with the recent election. While in the operating room, one of the surgeons she works with started talking guns with her (she just got an XDs for her EDC). Part of that conversation was about the Assault Weapons Ban we endured in the Clinton years and the ...
