I'm offended he claimed to be Irish. Me green side wants ta flatten this boyo. Sent from the future using a flux capacitor.

Back in the old days, before 24 hour news channels, we did't have polar vortices. We just called it winter.

Two things: First, great commentary on the response from the White House on the events. http://reason.com/blog/2015/01/07/the-white-house-on-charlie-hebdo-then-an Second: I don't think any explanation is needed.

My children have no problems handling a dog or a loaded gun. That was a stupid post; especially on a gun forum.

If you're cold, they're cold (13 degrees in Oak Ridge right now)

I've learned to be VERY selective about who I discuss firearms with. There are just too many misconceptions that I don't want to waste my time trying to correct with someone who doesn't want to learn.

Don't feed the trolls guys. Save the time and spend it with your poochies instead, whatever the breed.

I'll just leave this here:

:lol: Sorry, I've been dying to use it for weeks now.

Just to illustrate the size of this awesome blade i just received in the mail, here it is pictured with my Government model Les Baer SRP and a Zero Tolerance 0300 blade, This is one of the best fIxed blade knives I have ever seen, and in all honesty it is Beefier than any Busse Combat knife I have ever owned, Donald you are truly a craftsman! Now I need somebody to make me a sheath for this thing

Guys working in gunshops can spot us black rifle junkies a mile away :(

Ok if your mad lay down on I 24 to protest! Wear a green kilt !

Back when he still had all of his fingers :)

Man I sure would not want to be a judge in this dog show. I would give all of them Blue Ribbons................. :up:

I rack the slide.....after I fire the first shot :)

I just bought 25 acres and I really love this place!! At first my daughter and her husband were going to move here but they have changed their mind, so now I live here alone! I do have Rheumatoid Arthritis but I am determined!!! I desperately need a game plan!!! I paid cash for farm and new 4 wheel drive toyota fj but what should I do first- goats, chickens, orchard, fruit trees, I need a lot but I choose to buy without going in debt - I am debt free now! Any advice would be appreciated! The firearms and ammo is covered - and coyotes are an issue! Thanks for any advice!!!

Dunno about y'all, but every time I'm in a heated firefight, I find that I can't keep up with how many rounds I've fired, so the lock back on empty almost always comes as a surprise. So for that short time until I can pop in the next mag, I'm holding an empty chambered club.   Now the Maklarbak magazine can change all that. It locks back with one round still left in mag, so you can hit the bolt release putting the last round in battery before you grab that next magazine. Seems a worthy addition to all of us high speed low drag operators.   http://www.maklarbak-usa.com/   - OS

Before I start, Ive been rather stressed lately, and just need a place to vent after the idiocy I had to deal with last night at work. So I was showing my new shotgun to my brother in law whom I work with. Its an 18.5" cylinder bore Mossberg 500. Another guy we work with wandered up while were talking and starts giving unsolicited advice. First I said I still needed to drill and tap and add the front bead, which he informs me is stupid because you don't need to aim a shotgun, just point and shoot. I mention that a shot spread is gonna be very small at short distance, and that the myth of the street sweeper patterns isn't really true. He then mentions my pet peeve. He said a pump shotgun is his favorite for home defense because the sound of the pump racking will cause an attacker to run in fear. Why do people claim this? All you do when you rack the gun is slow yourself down and identify your location. He just wouldn't accept the fact that racking a shotgun wouldn't immediately cause any human on earth to faint or run in fear. Well, rant over. What myths have you heard about firearms and shooting that really grind you?

You guys ever wonder if that irrelevant old assclown says stuff that he knows makes him sound like a complete jackass JUST to see if he can get away with it?

May I just ask why it is even allowed for Ron to be posting these vile and disgusting links? When I signed up for my membership I was given a list of how to conduct myself of this forum. This man has CLEARLY violated most of the things NOT to do. This is beyond ignorant, hateful and just plain stupid. Clearly anything he posts is just meant to instigate and provoke people. The Bronco forum that I am a member of if because we all love our Broncos, we talk about other things like this site. But I have NEVER seen someone conduct himself in a manner like this man. Clearly they do not have curfews at the home and Matlock reruns aren't on. I'm sorry Ron is bored and has nothing better to do, but posting videos and links like he is doing should not be allowed. He's making a mockery of not only himself, but this forum as well.

  I liked that

heh.

The definition of awesome. This might be old to some, but it was new to me.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS7LKwt1j18

  I wouldn't carry any gun without getting very comfortable on the range with it first and knowing the gun.  Especially something really small like a .380.  I swore that I'd never own a Taurus but I relented and bought a TCP and love it.  That said mine did not function well out of the box, it took a lot of polishing and tweaking to get it to run right.  When I got it it was for all practical purposes a single shot, if you got anything else out of it you were just lucky.  Carry a single shot .380?  No thanks.

We didn't need speed sensors in the old Vietnam-era deuce-and-a-halves. Those trucks topped out at about 57 mph. All drives were long and boring.

Great looking blade!

I think the title  Two girls one can  would have been funner :rofl:

Amazing how a little walk in the other guy's shoes can change one's perspective.  Even if it's only a 10 second walk.  Kudos to the activist guy for agreeing to the training and even more so having the news crew along.    ...and holy crap that "BG" was big!

  For sure. I prefer to walk out on the balcony and fire a couple of blasts.

I had an Undercover Flex on my last truck. It was great. You can't really fold it up and put a 4wheeler in it. But it has two knobs that loosen it from the frame and you can pull the whole thing off. Takes about 2 minutes. Very nice cover.

Well, that does it, cracker barrel for lunch it is.... 

1) Have you ever smoked marijuana? It doesn't make you want to murder anyone. It is impossible to fathom a marijuana influenced murder. That is a laughable concept. The only thing I've ever murdered was a pizza while high on marijuana. 2) I do not actively smoke marijuana. So, you can ride with me all you want. I am a fan of pursuing natural highs through nature.

It's not illegal to have a gun in the bar.

This morning in Oak Ridge. We are having a severe snow storm in East TN. I managed to brave the cold(31) and storm long enough to get this picture. By all means, don't go outside. Due to the amount of snow we have received it has been difficult to get an accurate measurement. I am afraid I won't be able to attend work today. ‪#‎EastTNBlizzard‬ Urgent request for sherpa's, dog sleds, Siberian Huskys, Alaskan Malamutes, and Alaskan Huskys ‪#‎EastTNBlizzard‬

Let's see, my personal "favorites" include but certainly are not limited too: 1.Anything with a scope on it being called a sniper rifle. 2. Being asked which rifles are "automatic". 3. "The AR 15 fires a round so powerful it has no legitimate sporting use." 4. "The AK47 fires a round so powerful it has no legitimate sporting use." 5. Any comparison of the 7.62x39 to the 5.56x45 beyond both being small intermediate cartridges. 6. Pretty much any sheepdog reference. People aren't dogs. Not everyone who chooses not to carry is a "sheep". 7. That someone's nephews friends father had a smatter of LE or military experience which automatically making them an authority on all things firearms. 8.High round count used Glocks are worth more than new ones because they have extra magazines and are proven reliable.

Found this and nearly peed myself.

So your answer would be yes?   While I would shoot to stop any intruder in my house, I would still prefer that they ran away screaming like a little girl. There's less paperwork.

Because if they have broken into my house uninvited, gotten past the pit bull, and caused me to fear for my life they have voided their right to breathe.

My whole family are fox lovers. We get really excited every time we see one and it makes the rounds via text pretty quickly. 

I find it hilarious that people want to keep marijuana criminalizes "for the children". What happens when your child doesn't take your parental advice? (what? No way!) As it sits right now we can effectively ruin young people's lives FOREVER for having even a small amount of pot on them. The pot prohibition is broken and has been since its inception. As to the worry that next the hippies will rally over another substance, I can't fathom how someone would make the choice to deny freedoms to his fellow man on that pretext, and make no mistake, that's exactly and all any prohibition does, eliminate freedom. I'm glad you'll be diligently working to keep us in the dark ages, I'll be working just as hard to cancel out that effort. :cheers:

It's amazing what an addict will do for a fix.  I saw one of my very best friends get hooked on Oxycontin, it ruined his life.  It wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear that he was using heroin because it was cheaper.  An addict will steal and sell every precious family heirloom in their parents house and pawn it for nothing just to get high once, and they think nothing of it.  They would thoughtlessly sell their soul to the devil for one more hit if they could.  I say let em at it, problem will solve itself, I've been around more than enough addicts in my life, they rarely get better.

I don't trust the police anymore than I trust any other stranger, which is not very much. Just because they are police officers it doesn't mean that they are infallible human beings. It doesn't take a genius to pass those tests nor does it take a person with an ironclad moral background. Just because they're cops doesn't make them experts on law either... Especially new or changed laws.

I can attest from more than a few first-hand accounts that this is in fact, not a myth. Given certain circumstances, the sound of a shotgun racking is a very effective deterrent. Not so much in an immediate attack scenario but in an escalating situation it works more times than not.   But yes, having worked in a gun store for some years .... there are many MANY popular myths out there.

  I suspect it also has a lot to do with the same phenomenon that causes every rifle in any media story about a crime, whether it be a Ruger 10/22 or a lever action 30-30, to miraculously transform into an AK-47 or an AR15.  The same phenomenon that causes any handgun used in a crime to be transformed in the media to something like a Glock 40 caliber fully automatic revolver.  Just because some uninformed (nice way of saying dumbass) reporter says the dog was a pit bull or (even better) a 'pit bull mix' doesn't mean he or she actually knows what the hell they are talking about.   I am not saying that pit bulls don't attack people.  They probably do.  It is even possible that they do so more often than other breeds.  I don't own a pit so I don't know.  What I do know is how the media often completely screws up the type of gun used in a crime because, "AK47" sounds more sensational than "hunting rifle" so I would not be surprised to find that they throw out 'pit bull' just as often because it sounds more sensational than "Labrador/coon hound mix."

Glad to have you onboard. Welcome. :hat:     Guns, "furry" family members, and a love of our God Given Constitutionally protected Rights...Win-Win!  Gotta love TGO! :up:

Put your decoder ring on, go out at noon on a sunny day and point it at the nearest contrail. The details will be holographically projected in front of you. If you get a message from Princess Leia you wore the wrong ring...

I'm a little old for that. This is what I had.
