  3. 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.

  6. 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.

  17. 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!!!

  18. 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

  19. 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?

  23. 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.

  25.   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.

  28. 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!

  30. 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.

  32. 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.

  34. 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

  35. 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.

  39. Here's 3 of ours. Top is Ruby Belle, she is the little blind puppy that my wife found on the side of the road at about 5 pounds soaking wet (literally since it was pouring rain that evening). She of course has grown like a weed and is doing great. Her and Roman are definitely married, loving eachother one minute, fighting the next :lol: Middle is Jake, he's a mix of some sort and is too big for his britches but minds pretty good. He and Roman also like to sumo wrestle 90% of the time they are awake. And of course the bottom is Roman (my big feller). Most of y'all have followed him from the time he was a little feller so I'll include a picture if him then too. Only because I love him so much :) And we have one more, he's Momma's dog. Ryley sits at her feet like a cat 99.9% of the time. He growls at me when I chomp my teeth at him......so I do it a lot! :) He's a mean lil $@#%! Here's when he could lay on my neck without causing severe cramps lmao! Mr Big Shot himself!

  43. I would just use some Cerrosafe and cast the chamber and throat.  That will tell you what you need to know.  Assuming you recognize the cartridge.     Calipers may get you close on the bore diameter if it has an even number of grooves and if you measure in the grooves.  Still won't tell you what round it shoots.

  44. I've heard the whole "racking the shotgun" thing quite a few times too...I'm not so sure it would just cause somebody to take off running and in all honesty, if you are already in my house I A.) dont want you getting out and B.) dont want you to know where I am.

  45.   Cooperation <> forfeiting my rights.    I look at it this way. Nothing good can come to me by consenting to a search. If I don't consent, they can't search and I go on my way. If I do consent and they find nothing, then I go on my way. However, if I consent and they find something, perhaps something I didn't know I had*, or that's not actually ilegal but the officer thinks it is (switchblade in the console, perhaps?), then my day gets bad fast. If they have PC (or think they do), they don't need my consent and they'll search whether I consent or not. Arguing about whether they really have PC or not or if something is actually illegal or not is for an attorney and a judge to discuss, not me and an officer on the side of the road.   That's not to say that I'm going to be a disrespectful ass-clown to an officer. I'm not going to make their job hard, but I'm not going to make their job easy at my expense. If I get stopped, I roll down my windows, turn on my interior lights, shut off the car, and place both hands on the wheel. I'll present my DL and HCP and inform the officer if I'm armed or not and if so, how and where I'm armed. I will respectfully decline any requests to search my vehicle. That's cooperating. Voluntarily participating in a phishing expedition isn't cooperating, it's stupidity.       *I mentor a kid through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Middle Tennessee (shameless plug for http://www.mentorakid.org). It's conceivable that one of those left-handed cigarettes might find its way into that teenaged boy's pocket (you know, to hold it for a friend), then find its way out of his pocket and roll under my seat. .

Yup the terrorists' TTPs sucked, but I'm sure they were embolden by the words of The Dear Leader himself, Barry Hussein, during his address to the UN in 2012.   “The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam......”   http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2012/09/25/remarks-president-un-general-assembly

  47. Apparently you have not seen the level of training in some of the foreign militaries.  No, there was a level of at least planning if not all out training.  And since they had the RPG, they had some sort of connections to acquire such hardware. One thing that stands out to me is that the police officer gave up and it cost him his life.  We once were trained to cooperate with hostage takers, to allow the authorities to come to our rescue or negotiate our release.  Though not trained for, there was times where you would surrender when totally outgunned or outnumbered by an enemy.  No more, with the way the enemy operates, you fight to your last breath, no matter what; because there will be no mercy, Bergdahl not withstanding.
