Re: Recommendations for .308

If you are not into plastic and black then look at the Browning Lever Rifle Gold Medallion, the strength of a bolt action and the speed of a lever. a beautiful gun in stainless and Walnut. I found one after a long search several months ago. I planned on scoping it but after I received the gun I fell...

Re: 2014 Primary Polling shows Cornyn may be on the ropes

I have to agree with Charles on this. I am not a single issue voter, but I do expect NRA and TSRA to be single issue endorsers. It just means that I have to do more research and get endorsements or ratings from other areas before I decide how to vote. ***SNIP **** But I always look at other issues ...

Re: 2014 Primary Polling shows Cornyn may be on the ropes

It bothers that the NRA and TSRA are at odds with me on candidate choices almost every election. I will not vote for John Cornyn but there is a BIG ad endorsing him in the latest Rifleman. I am strong Tea Party and was an EARLY supporter of Ted Cruz which Cornyn is not and will not be... I believe o...

Re: NRA membership upgrade to Endowment.

I have seen this $250 upgrade offer and am still considering it. Like many of us, there are so many other things going on. I am unlikely to attend any of the shows, so other than things like that, what are the benefits to the upgraded status? Nothing significant that I am aware of, I just do the up...

Re: Man brings AR-15 into Walmart; People freak out

The only weapon you can even get a license for in the state of Texas is a handgun. No license at all is needed - or even available - for anything else and if it isn't illegal to own it in the first place then you can carry it anywhere. I was not aware of any handgun license availability or requirem...

Re: Liberals Hysterical in CO Over Open Carry March

I never thought I would say this, but look at Belton, TX for this 4th of July. Insurance companies are now the policy makers when it comes to guns. Or it might just be a politician lying. Even though firearms have always been a part of the 4th of July parade, now they are banned. We need to start b...
