Re: The war with Iran
Tomorrow at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade will be the first opportunity since October 7 for anyone inside the US border with enough financing to travel to New York to express their feelings on live television and potentially disrupt a symbolic Christian and totally American event. I hope the gover...

Re: Defensive carry/trigger enhancement kits
I have never been nor ever will go into a conflict or where there may be a conflict with a sidearm that has non-factory internals. A lot of research time and money went into design of trigger internals that would mesh into the overall design & function, more so with pistols designed with combat...

Re: Can the government take your guns in an emergency?
You guys are talking about rules and laws . Unfortunately our current government doesn't seem to be bothered about such trivial things. If he tries to get my guns, I am going to have a Viking funeral. I am sure I will lose in the long run, but there will be lots of bodies of my enemies to bury at m...

Re: Mean streets of Dallas - Texas State Fair shooting
The State Fair allows Licensed Concealed Carry. They do not allow open carry or permitless carry. We were down there a couple of weeks ago. As you enter you go through a metal detector. I showed the attendant my LTC card and he, politely, escorted me to the police officer. The officer looked at my ...

Re: TX:The mean streets of Houston - murderer free on bond, because he needs haircut
The weapon is irrelevant to the robbery. Among other things, PC 29.02 defines robbery as if a person threatens the victim or places the victim in fear of imminent injury during a theft. PC 9.42 allows for the use of deadly force to stop someone from from fleeing after committing a robbery. If the i...

Re: Pistol mounted optics questions
I got my first pistol optic a few months ago. I bought a new Glock MOS model and the Holosun fit it with no adapter plate. I agree that this is a much better option. I went with a green dot instead of red. I had always heard green is easier to se and it worked for me. I have to admit that this may b...

Re: PA: No place but Philly
Call me crazy but I don't think that there has been a free and fair election in Philadelphia in decades. I have told people that I don't think there has been a truly free and fair election anywhere in the US since the thugs in NYC figured out how to intimidate and buy voters in 1850 in Tammany Hall...

Some interesting firearms rumored to be for sale
I was in a hobby shop yesterday when a couple other customers started talking about Drivetanks Ranch and Museum. One former paid employee and one former volunteer said that Drivetanks will be shutting down and selling everything soon. I don't know what a 105mm Howitzer goes for these days, but they ...
