  1. I love how another country's government condemns us for using deadly force. Control your drug and weapons trafficking and help us lock down and patrol our borders, and we wouldn't need to use deadly force so often. Far as I'm concerned we don't use it enough. You wanna control the drug problem? Start shooting traffickers and smugglers on sight, along with dealers and user's. This meth, cocaine and heroin problem is killing this country, almost as bad as the budget, illegal immigrants, and gun control. I was called racist the other day for wanting to lock down the borders. I' m not a racist, I'm a firm believer in the fact that if you want to immigrate here, you should do so peaceably and legally, just as my ancestors did, and just as law abiding people have for the last 200 years. Fill out the forms, become a citizen, pay your taxes, and contribute to society as a whole. Instead they would rather sneak drugs in and government provided guns out, or sneak in, work for a few years, while being on welfare, free healthcare, and God knows what other government assistance, and then once they've milked it long enough, they head back across the border to where they have been shipping that money all along. Nothing but a parasite on the underbelly of this country.   /end rant

  2. I can't tell how accurate it is without knowing how many rounds he fired, but 7 hits on a moving target ain't bad at all. I'd say he's plenty accurate.

  3. Armed citizens force officials to back down   "A group of 160 citizens, many if not most of whom were armed, confronted government officials Tuesday who had attempted to have a wounded Army veteran kicked out of a meeting due to the fact that he carried a gun. The veteran has a state license for concealed carry, which means that he was carrying the gun to the meeting within the boundaries of the law."   Read more at: http://www.examiner.com/article/armed-citizens-force-officials-to-back-down

  4. Sheep asks Caster: Is that a gun?!? Caster: uhh, yeah... Sheep: Why are you carrying a gun?!? Caster: It's against my religion to fight. Besides, Recoil is much easier to manage than blunt force trauma to my fists and or face. Sheep: ......blank stare Caster: ......sly grin...walks away casually, possibly whistling a Black Sabbath tune.

  5. If somone is worth shooting at, the back is as good as the front IMHO.   Trying to gin up sympathy for a criminal due to the age or where the bullets landed does not wash with me.  He attacked them, he got shot, cry moar.

  6. I may just be ignorant here, so LEOs feel free to correct me, but doesn't certain criteria have to be met in order to release a round in someone's direction? Seriously, one of the vehicles engaged had all the bulletholes in the rear, suggesting that the vehicle wasn't being used as a weapon, and the passenger was most likely not armed being that it wasn't the right person. I mean, they fired without even positively identifying the person. Is this amateur hour or what? Looks like a few more of LAPDs finest need to get a pink slip as well.

  11. That is OK.  It was the "he killed one of ours and is therefore to be shot on sight" that is wrong.  The LAPD is openly, without remorse and without shame, on a shoot to kill mission and that I have trouble with.  There is a subtle difference between the two.

  15. Yeah, but regular folks get a by for being ignorant. Someone who is enforcing the law needs to know better. I would have corrected those officers if they said such a thing. I can only imagine they would disagree with me and be forced to take me to jail when I re chamber a round. I'm not sure what my recourse would be for being arrested for breaking a law that doesn't exist, but I'm not going to be dictated the law from someone who doesn't even know it.

  16. Yeah, folks always post something about "why would you do anything other than just hunker down?", without considering that some of us have children. There is no option there. If someone breaks into my home, where my children sleep, there is nothing in the world that will keep me from finding them and preventing them from getting anywhere near my kids. For this reason, my reaction is immediate. The flashlight and gun is in my hand and I'm out the door of the bedroom ready to shoot. We had a scare last year where the alarm went off in the middle of the night. I can tell you that I was able to clear a three story structure in less than 45 seconds, based on the timing of the alarm company calling. No shoes, no pants, no problem. There is only one concern I have and that is eliminating the threat as fast as possible and I only need a bang stick and a light to make that happen.

  17. If you have worked your way down to a knife fight something has gone terribly wrong.   Having a bag around your body while in a fight is going to be a huge disadvantage. It allows the bad guy to have something to grab a hold of easily.   I would have a flashlight, pistol or shotgun and cell phone in close proximity at all times. No need to over think it or over complicate it. You just want the bare minimum needed to defend yourself.   If someone enters or attempts to enter my home I would grab my firearm, cell phone and flashlight. Then if I decide to actively find the bad guy I will move slowly move to the area of greatest observation with a light switch. I will try to avoid using any source of light as I move because I have the advantage while it is dark but when the area is lit up it evens the playing field.   Then, once in position, I would use voice commands to warn the bad guy to leave. This should give me an idea of if they are friend or foe and if they are foe I would call 911. I will try to use the lightswitch to light up the area before using a flashlight. Then if the bad guy becomes a threat I would remove the threat.   If you decide to stay put, which isn't bad either, then leave the lights off and use the flashlight to light up the bad guy if he enters the bed room.   Distance is your ally. The more distance between you and the bad guy the better off you are.   Dolomite

  19. A Hornady phone rep told me that it takes 300 pounds of force to seat a primer. I have put one in side-ways and had one hook and degenerate when seating in a press and neither one popped (PTL!). Bottom line is A) you need to expect things to happen B ) work hard to keep bad things from happening and C) WEAR SAFETY GLASSES!     Late thought: if bad things do happen, keep an extra pair of underwear handy (but tell people it is to wipe up the mess - OF THE PRIMERS)!

  23.   What you must understand is gun owners have nothing to gain in the never ending game of "compromise". We will lose every time.   Giving up one thing for the sake of another is not good.  Eventually you will have nothing.   The way this country works now is just about anyone can make some kind of complaint and somebody else has to give something up to shut them up.  That is not right.

  30. I got this Win 63 a while back and had fiddled with it a bit, but hadn't shot it much. The other day I put a little 2-7 Rimfire Weaver on it and had a lot of fun shooting golf balls today. It isn't a pristine 63 having been D&T'd on top of receiver and barrel by some expert long ago and it has the 4 holes on the left side of the receiver with plug screws where it was D&T'd for a side mount. Crazy, a non grooved 63 D&T'd twice! Anyway, I am about function not about collecting or looks. First time I threw it up to my shoulder I snapped off a fast shot at a golf ball at 35 yards and the ball exploded! My 3 shooting partners shouted, "Do it again!" I calmly told them I only had to do it once, then laughed pretty hard too. I'm sure you all have had shots like that. Trouble is I had two today. I was function testing an AMT Lightning that I had put a new Volquartsen sear in and installed new Ruger adjustable rear and new front sights. First round out of the AMT spun the 2" spinner at 35 yrds with a fast snap shot. My 3 shooting partners raised their eyebrows at me. Lucky twice today.

  31. Maybe it is just my tinfoil getting a little too tight again, but these two incidents lend themselves to the idea that the LAPD has no intention of even attempting a live capture. They seem to be operating on a 'kill on sight' basis. Dorner is obviously violently psychotic, and a danger to the public, though it is focused on those who wear a badge. Maybe he actually possesses damaging information they are trying to ensure doesn't get out? This is the LAPD after all, probably the only LE organization that rivals NYC in corruption.

  32. I've corresponded with Courtney Rogers, 45th District, some, and wanted to share my most recent missive from her.  This is in response to some questions Id asked her:   Real quick, because I am swamped.... oh- but first, if you ever come to Nashville, would love to meet you in person!  Ok, I have signed onto the 'safe commute' bill as a co-sponsor - but there are some issues with it as it came out of the Senate the other night that may be too restrictive, will look more into that.  Am also co-sponsoring the bill that doesn't allow publication of permit holder list in TN....  Hmmm, what else.  Signing onto the HB 042 by Joe Carr that makes it a crime for anyone trying to enforce confiscation of arms in TN.   Also, FYI....  am joining the 10th Amendment Caucus!   Blessings!   Courtney

  42. From your post we have no idea why the Officers stopped your friend, but yes, they can disarm him and there isn’t anything that stops them from running the numbers. They don’t need probable cause to stop him, only reasonable suspicion. You are asking “Can they do that?” To have any kind of intelligent discussion about that we would have to know the exact circumstances of the stop. If they told him that he couldn’t have a round in the chamber; they were wrong. I don’t want stopped by the cops for anything. Since carrying a gun in Tennessee is a crime unless you are part of our special group; I don’t open carry to gain their attention.

  49.   I think that the demagnetization approach is the best.  We didn't pay to import them, so we shouldn't have to pay to export them.  Cut off all forms of benefit to them, no jobs, no welfare, no social security, no health care and then they will self-deport.  They walked here, they can walk home.   Many have no intention of becoming Americans.  They work and send the money they make back to Mexico.  Many Super Mercado's off FREE money orders.  Why do you think that is?  I wonder which govt. is subsidizing that, U.S. or Mexico?  Maybe both.
