The VA legislature quashed a bill in January that might have given some of yesterday's Virgina Tech victims a chance: http://www.roanoke.com/news/roanoke/wb/wb/xp-50658 . Here's VA Tech spokesman Larry Hincker at the time: "Virginia Tech spokesman Larry Hincker was happy to hear the bill was de...

thanks everyone

teach me, please.

He'll never carry enough southern and western states to garner the party's nomination. Take your pick from his antigun stance, lisping New Yawk accent, adultery and messy divorce while in office, or lack of qualifications. A couple terms as mayor just doesn't cut it. He'd be a lot more viable candid...

That looks like a lot more bright for the buck than my Surefire NRA G2 combat light and 120 lumen bulb assembly. Good to know.

Tons more great info from Farnam at http://www.defense-training.com/quips/quips.html . Certainly worth the typos and wear on your mouse (you'll see what I mean.) I've read through it twice the past couple years. I've cut and pasted the whole mess into a word processor document so I can clean it up a...

Hats off to your son for his service. The Bullet Hole is the one west of the AFB. Very friendly people there.

Anygun: please pardon my ignorance, what is PDO?

I think open carry should top our legislative agenda. It's not for everyone all the time but the resulting de facto decriminalization of failure to conceal would make things easier all around for CHL holders. As for its deterrent to crime value, I'm reminded of what they used to say about cockroache...

Got the wife and 3 kids over to Bracken Range NW of San Antonio today. It's $3.50 per target board with 4 bullseyes on it. And $3.50 per gun. Extra shooters aren't charged. 50- and 100-yard covered rifle range. Also a covered pistol (we ran out of time for that) range and skeet setup. We only used t...

I know what you mean, Jim. A friend's house over in PA served as my Arsenal of Democracy for years. Thanks for the clarification, KBCraig. I'm no cruffler myself and what I heard about law enforcement preventing C&R applications going through as a matter of policy there was anecdotal from the in...

New Jersey has to be right up near or at the top of the list. They've had a discretionary Firearms I.D. card system since 1964. It's a one-time process for long guns (they actually include pre-1899 antiques and even BB guns). It's done through one's local police department. The chiefs can deny an ap...

When the wife and I were down here from NJ in April to find a house and jobs we stopped by The Bullet Hole. As it was her first time shooting we rented a .22 Walther and bought 1 box of ammo. The staff were knowledgable and courteous. The range officers were great. My wife had a fun time and would g...
