You have to go to the Pensacola Naval Base Museum.

If you're getting your best man a pistol, I am available as a backup should he come down with the flu.  :stare:

At long last my effort to build a M1941 USMC Sniper re-creation is finished and tested. It began as this Pawn Shop find. A M1903 Mark I that bubba had D&T to the point that it had more holes than a slice of Swiss Cheese. Now after all of the "Re-Creation." Interesting what you can do with all of the left-over stuff in your spare parts box. The pre-war Springfield C Stock and the cut-down handguard I had picked up at a collectors show a while back. I already had all of the 1903 metal parts to include a complete rear sight and Nickel Steel bolt and grooved National Match trigger and sear. Ben Schade (Gunsmith at the Lebanon Gun Shop (615) 547-9600) plugged all of the old holes and then did a new D&T for the Leatherwood Malcolm 8X USMC Sniper Scope. I was thinking about doing a re-park of all the metal, but with the stock's patina I felt that a fresh metal refinish would look out of place. So I used an old trick of using a heat gun on the metal and with 0000 steel wool, rubbed hard into the remaining finish with Brownell's Oxpho-Blue Crème. Afte a week or two soaking in CLP, the finish takes on a blacken look of the old Springfield finish. Before. After. And the best part of all - - - This rifle will hold the Ten-Ring at 600 yards using match ammo. Heck, I just might have to shoot a F Class Mid-Range match with it.

good thing she did not want to be a Boy Scout

Be careful what you say, the "Mauve Hand" is watching and they are plotting faaaaabulous plots.

Thanks for posting this Tanker.  I saw it the other day and chortled a bit.  Ive got zero confidence that a university tenured journalism puke is gonna do anything; but i gotta admire the style. Their problem is they aint very credible as "death angels" to their imagined enemies. I simply cant imagine these university types as SS "death angels"....   He aint gonna take up his sword and carry anything out.  It's the usual statist, elitist windbaggery.   By the way; i wonder if this "threat and exhortation to do bad things" can be prosecuted under the "insightment to do violence"  statute ALA our great US AG for East Tennessee's intrepretation RE: the muslum community....?   Maybe he will stand up for the NRA members in Tennessee and interview and fully investigate this potentially "dangerous" person.  How about a civil rights seminar and meeting for us "Tennessee NRA Rustics"....RE:  our rights...?   Typical empty, childish, school yard hyper-speech for the nut fringe wing fringe of socialist academia i say.  Red meat for the "low information children" and statist weenies.   I'm kinda like Grand: i say: "....come on down any time ya feel like startin the extermination.  Why wait?  No better time than now...".   NRA leroy, gunowner

I invite those liberal SOB's to try to exterminate members of the NRA any time they please. I'll be waiting at the end of the driveway for them. Anyone else?

What jurers should be told is they also have the option of nullification. That is finding the law the defendant broke as unjust and refusing to punish him for breaking an unjust law. He may have been guilty of breaking the law, as written, but it doesn't mean the law itself is just and legal.   There are thousands of laws that are unjust and people were convicted because most jurors are unaware of the right of nullification. Had the jurors known they could declare the law unjust a lot of people would be free.   Maybe if more juries were to nullify and begin ruining DA's conviction rates they would quit charging people with laws that are unjust.

Today I'm 40! Whew, it's going to hurt the first time I have to write in my age on a form with the first number being a 4 instead of a 3. But that being said, I'm not complaining. I see a lot of people way worse off than I am at 40. I have a beautiful daughter and wife, a family that says I love you after each phone conversation or visit, and I'm a cancer survivor. Pretty much, I'm saying thanks to the Lord up above for blessing me with 40 years to enjoy all of the above!   P.S. Y'all are included in my reasons to be happy also. Glad I found this place and the members who are a part of it. David and mods, thanks for all you do!

God Bless Bullet Proof Vest.   There is a reason my wife and the mother to my LEO son has laid hands upon and prayed over his vest.   BTW - - - She would do the same to my Body Armour each and every time I deployed. 

  Well, if would have been a pretty tough sell to have remained neutral after a third or whatever of our navy was destroyed in one fell swoop.   Unless BHO had been prez.   - OS

45...........minor gunshot wound. I thought a 45 would take your leg clean off if it so much as breezes by you.

That one song by Nickleback, and by "one song" I mean all of them. They are all the same song and they are all just horrifically terrible.

Enlighten me, how exactly was Germany a threat to our nation existence?  Obviously we took two separate history classes in college, because I see no way that Germany was going to even attempt an invasion let alone alone succeed.   I do know that FDR ran on a platform that he would never send US troops to die in a European war, all the while plotting and scheming trying to get the US drawn into a war with Germany.   How we violated our neutrality time and time again, trying to draw Germany into attacking us to have an excuse to go to war with them.   My generation?  I never said my generation has done anything special, but we're still in our 20's and 30's, the vast majority aren't old enough to be elected President yet...  who knows what my generation will do, probably nothing except work our entire lives to pay for old people to retire in comfort playing golf for the last 30 years of their life, while we're forced to work until we die and never see a penny of the money we paid into a Government backed Ponzi scheme.  And watch as our child and their children are forced to try and pay back 17 trillion dollars (and counting) because we spent the second half of the 20th century trying to build an empire that had our founding fathers rolling in their graves over ;)   If you can't tell my tongue is firmly planted against my cheek on the above paragraph...  I'm not trying to say my generation is better than anybody else's, only that we place generations on a pedestal by forgetting what really happened in history.   And yes, my generation will own Obamacare, and whatever else we allow the government to do in our names that limits freedom for all future generations.     

Blasphemy!

All hip hop except the Beastie Boys.

I love telling libtards that they may just have to jump in their Volvos and take my guns themselves. I usually don't get a response.

  My hilite.   Hersh is exactly spot on on this.... He is dead right....  It is designed and contrived with the intent of scaring the citizenry and chilling dissenting speech and other protected activities.    This is nothin more than a potential (...and i repeat, potential...) method to harass dessenters from the "pathway to utopia" via the "chicago way" carried out by an arm of the Executive Branch of the federal government with arrest power and a de facto license to shoot the citizenry if it resists during official visits. The power to use the courts to harass "political enemies" (...read that as citizens who wont bow down and dont agree with the regieme's policies and actions....) and to use federal officers armed with the power shoot interviewees in the performance of these "official intervews" and harassing legal proceedings is the big concern.  That's why this is a potentially serious thing; despite our giggling about it.  It is, in fact, government out of control.   The actual issue, whowever, is more "Gibson exotic wood raid" and "IRS audit" stuff.  It is malicious investigation and harassment of political enemies.    Our esteemed U S Attorney for East Tennessee full well knows a citizen cannot be prosecuted for expressing their views that meet the "protected speech" rules under the First Amendment.  If ya dig around in these court rulings you will see the justices refer to issues of a public nature (...that is, issues such as questions as to the conflict between people groups as to religion --- Muslum vs Judism vs Christianity; theoracy vs republican government; shria law vs constitutional law, taxes, potential questionable biological heritage of polititians and bureaucrats,  ... bla bla bla... ya get the picture...) as "protected speech".  He has to know that.   leroy

Typical flawed logic of the libtard mind. The government is everything. An Abrams tank does a good job of blowing holes in a concentrated force. Doesn't work so well with the "behind every blade of grass" concept. Numbers matter. 

How does a boy that age know what to do in a situation like that? Must have decent parents. 

"And their assault arsenal and RPGs won’t do them any good."    Did I miss the NRA sign-up for RPG's..?  I hate it when that happens.

  Have you checked on mp-pistol.com to see what the forum members there are using?   Honestly, the Shield is sort of a "get the f--- off me" gun designed more for conversation distances than medium range distances.  The way it's mean to be employed would make point-shooting viable.  The factory sights are more than adequate for that.

I received my new knife today. Some of you Special Forces guys may have earned this knife, which is known as the Yarborough. excerpt taken from http://news.soc.mil/releases/News Archive/2010/March/100328-02.html The knife I have is the civilian version, known as the Green Beret. I already had the 5.5 inch Green Beret, so when I ran across this 7 inch model at a fantastic price, I had to have it. Chris Reeve makes some of the finest production knives available, and this knife is no exception. For those interested in a moderately priced fixed blade that will pretty much last you a lifetime and withstand hard use, I would highly recommend one of these. (edit) - I just noticed that Chris Reeve Knives won the 2013 Blade Show Manufacturing Quality Award. That is 11 in a row and 13 out of the last 14 years. I think that says a lot about their knives.

Custom Knife perhaps? Less expensive than some pistols and truly unique.

pretty much all of us have unisex bathrooms in our homes. Why is there this perverse need to separate people when in a public restroom?

I'm not as kind and reasonable as some are.  Frank Lautenberg was a grandfatherly old man and grandpaw to someone who loved him; and i'm willing to concede and accept that fact.  He was also one of the most dangerous statist sons of Marx that made it way too entirely long (...in my view...) into the twenty-first century.  He and others like him have done this country and its citizens great harm and no one who loves freedom should be sad that he is gone to his reward.   Frank Lautenberg was a thoroughly dangerous opportunistic man; and was no friend to this country, freedom, or the Constitution. He could have just as well been decorated with the Order of Lennin for his service to socialism, as he could have been a WW 2 veteran.  As others have opined; i wonder which side he fought on....?   His votes, "public service", and belief system gave us people like Barak Obama and this pseudo socialist government we have today. He has pillaged the pockets of citizens, taken their rights, and enriched himself and his sorry associates for many a year.  People like Frank Lautenberg believe that folks like us "delightful rustics' are a rabble to be controlled and serfs to pony up whatever the "ruling elites" demand.   Frank Lautenberg (...and others like him....)  brought old world belief systems and serfdom to the new world.  They believed that they were the "best and brightest" and that the citizenry was a rabble to be controlled and to be made to bow down to these "ruling elites"; just as they have been made to do in New Jersey and New York.  If he had have had his way; the "New Jersey and New York" way would have been made the law of this entire land.   Dont be sad that he is dead.  You can be polite to the family; but dont gloss over the truth.  Remember this; everybody blesses us in some way; some by staying and helping, some by leaving.  Thank you Lord that You have called this dangerous man to his reward.   leroy

old people die, it happens every day.  Lautenberg was a poster boy for what is wrong with American politics.  Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Sorry to disappoint you Mike...I suppose we could start a "concealed vs open carry" thread if you want. :) ROTFLMAO

  Yeah, they don't hang around and spit and scratch their balls and whatnot like the guys. :)   Whole pace is faster, hitters don't step out of the box as often or at least for as long, pitchers take less time between pitches, etc.   - OS

Beautiful rifle. I like the Unertl look. What did you use for rings and mounting blocks ? I don't see a recoil spring, is it not needed with the reproduction scope? I have my 8X Unertl on a Remington .243 700 heavy barreled varmint.

Happy birthday, you young pup...... :rofl:  :rofl:  :rofl:

Happy birthday!!! I'm about 6 years behind ya!

You rarely go wrong with hookers. And you don't have to get them monogrammed.

  http://www.scribd.com/doc/116435469/7th-Circuit-Court-overturns-Illinois-concealed-carry-ban   Page 20-21 Has the summary and 180 day stay to "allow the Illinois legislature to craft a new gun law that will impose reasonable limitations, consistent with the public safety and the Second Amendment as interpreted in this opinion, on the carrying of guns in public."

This idiot is at Marshall.  :squint: Things must have changed A LOT since i left the mountain state.

He did not just drop it, the handle broke.  (You can see the remainder of the handle in his hand) Young man showed he could think under pressure and did a great job of recovery

Good job.   For a kid that was probably sick to his stomach before they even began, I am sure he wanted to die after dropping the cymbal.    Nice recovery.

Bloody population purges are the historical communist modus operendi, can it happen here? Absolutely, will it happen here? Dunno.

My best man and groomsmen all got monogrammed flasks from that Things Remembered store at the mall.

I got mine a nice knife.

I didn't go for the DD as I was short of funds, but I AM a Bishop in the Universal Life Church.  :x:

Kinda like life, you have the doers and the takers.

  I don't see how any mistranslation can explain away Matthew 5:28. I listed it first, because if lustful thoughts are a sin, it stands to reason that other sinful thoughts are as well. As far as that being hard to live up to, I can't disagree with you there. I can only say that I'm less likely to do wrong, if I recognize I'm heading there...kind of like an ounce of prevention, ya know? I won't touch these last 2 words or this can go on forever. I'll just say I respect you for putting up a good fight to passionately defend your stance. It shows you aren't a blind follower, you thought out your position. I'd much rather walk away agreeing to disagree than to walk away thinking I've been arguing with a fencepost.

There is no concern over non gun related violence because it doesn't fit an agenda...yet.

You know, it's cheating to claim good groups at 25 yards when your barrel is 24 yards long.

I have heard people say that no reloads were shot in a gun when selling a gun or trying to buy a gun. I think that is because those who don't reload think that all reloaders load their ammo super hot and that this wears the guns out. From all the reloaders I have talked to the vast majority are on the other end, that is they find the lightest load that cycles reliably and run with it. I know I personally run stuff on the low end with very few exceptions.   As far as running someone else's reloads I would have to know them very well. I would never buy some guy's reloads at a show or on the internet because they generally do not have the insurance or take the precautions manufacturers do. And if a guns kabooms or a person is injured I suspect you would have a hard time proving it was their reloads and even if you did it would be even harder to get any money out of them.

Good quality Jack booted response. Cops always say "How Am I supposed to know if he's a criminal?". The answer is easy. When he commits a crime, arrest him. your philosophy is why don't we just stop him and find out if he is committing a crime? Why don't we just pull over everybody in a vehicle on the street to find out if they are driving with a suspended license?
