Carrying a firearm on someone else's property is not a right, Constitutional or otherwise. It is a privilege extended to the guest by the property owner. This has been common law since the Magna Carta. As far as in laws go I would put it on him to be the bad guy. I would let him and her know that you carry to protect yourself AND them. Then tell them that if they insist that you still not carry in their house then tell that is not possible and that you prefer they come up your house instead.

You've already answered your own question. How you choose to protect yourself and your family is no ones business but your own. If you're carrying concealed no one is the wiser. Me being me however, I would probably have to open carry around them just to watch their heads explode. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nothing screams heirloom like a Smith and Wesson revolver. A quality 1911 would be second but not by much. I still have the first gun I hunted with on my own, an old Stevens rolling block 22. Killed a ground hog when I was probably 8. Spent the day trying to get close enough and finally got him. Although it is in really rough shape, 8 year olds don't really clean, it is the most important gun to me.

My son missed a 8pointer last Saturday, made good this morning.

Well, supersonic 300BO works well on deer. I've been reluctant to build me an upper until I saw what this one would do I built my dad. He took this one a few minutes ago at around 75 yards. It took one step and dropped DRT. Ignore the funky long muzzle brake thing. It's something he made that he thinks looks cool lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Carry concealed and avoid the drama. Who needs it?

What if my level of feeling protected by a gun is complicated by their views of them being anti gun and I have to be around them. In a perfect world I would choose to be around like minded people but I'm talking about a few family members who are liberal and yes its my brother and his wife. Do I conceal and not let them know I carry or do I just leave it in my vehicle until I leave? I'm leaning toward not telling them as if it is concealed then nobody should know but me.

I just happened to be driving through Nashville today and there just so happens to be two Dick's just off the interstate (the sporting goods store). Scored 4 Federal Champion 525 bulk packs. I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!

Just going to put this here.

Bingo

First, I am NOT affiliated with this guy in any way. I'm always looking for nice, better ways to store reloads. I've been through lots of options from bulky and difficult to store plastic boxes, to home made boxes, you name it. I found this guy by chance while digging around the web. He's right here middle TN too, so your money stays local. I just ordered a pack of 9mm boxes and .308's. The pistol ammo boxes are made like the old WWII era 45 ball ammo boxes. (50) rounds upright with leafs that fold over and inside. Looks good to me, we will find out. For anyone interested, I'll post a little review when my order comes in. http://www.repackbox.com

Nothing about feeling unsafe, visited my brother last month. 17 miles from the nearest town. I carried the whole time. He doesn't mind but his girlfriend is totally anti, I told him from the start that I am who I am and I'm too dang old to change now. He agreed but said she might say something, which she didn't. I'm sorry but in today's climate with all the crazy shooting going on, I'd rather piss someone off than take a chance on someone catching me unarmed. Heck, I've got 2 in my bathroom, 1 my wife can get to and one nobody knows about but me. Staying armed is a way of life, if I'm expected to accept having the gay lifestyle shoved down my throat then they can expect me to stand my ground about my God given rights. Stepping down off the soapbox now.

  At 84 years old many are not going to embrace the digital age... They simply want/need POWER, VOLUME, CHANNEL

He is 84 years old, and has killed 3 deer this season.  If it makes him happy, then who cares.   BTW, he stays in the woods 3-4 days at a time. Can't hunt post sundown.

My only suggestion is to stay out of the woods. Really, a TV?

Don't show me your ____ and I will not show you my ____...

OK

Yep... it is time.  :)

It's a good show, although the basic premise is not very plausible, i.e. the D-Day landings fail and that somehow leads to the complete victory in WWII of both Germany and Japan.  Having said that, a lot of very good shows require a great deal of "suspension of disbelief", this doesn't keep many, including myself, from enjoying the show ...

I'm in.

I didn't get anything but my sister told me she saved over $2500 at kohl's with a friend. How much do you have to spend on shoes and whatall to save $2500?!

  There might be something more precise  but I generally just try different combos on Expedia and look for common flight numbers etc....

I don't fly southwest, but on Delta I can select which city to layover in.

So my daughter and I are still going at it. She practices the guitar daily, she is frustrated because I keep her going over the same stuff for a week at a time before we move on to the next lesson.   I recently upgraded my Bullet to a full Tusq treatment, nut, saddles and trees, it sounds amazingly better, but I still get fret buzz even after setting it up and adjusting the neck. It isn't bad, but it still happens on the low E string for the first five frets. It is pretty annoying, and will be my next beast to conquer. Neither my higher end Squier (is there such a thing?) nor my Les Paul Special suffer from this problem.   I am currently learning some Dwight Yoakam, Guitars, Cadillacs being among my favorite songs.   While I am a metal head from way back who considers Metallica and Iron Maiden the greatest bands ever while being heavily into avant garde music such as Sleigh Bells, Purity Ring and Matt and Kim, I think I would have been happiest in my life playing in a Bakersfield band.   That is my inner peace.   I got the heathen a keyboard for Christmas, I can't keep her off them at the music store. Those and the drums, but we are currently suffering sanctions on importation of acoustic percussion instruments into the home.

Being family doesn't mean I will put up with more. If they are good family I will but if they are not I view them as any other POS. Blood doesn't make the bond any closer than with any other person. The ONLY family I have now is my wife, my son, his wife, her brother and our granddaughter....that is it. All others can go to hell. I have seen family members hurt their family more so than complete strangers. Both mine as well as other families. It is sad but the ones who hurt me more than anyone else were also the ones who were my family.

I would go with a tablet over a television. You can get a Kindle for less than $50, if his phone can be used as a hotspot, or he buys a hotspot he might be looking at $100 total, with a monthly reoccurring fee of up to $50 for more than enough streaming to watch whatever he wants. Throw in a $10 a month Netflix, and while it might be semi expensive, the utility will be unsurpassed. And much better than trying to get signal with a set of rabbit ears deep in the woods. Speaking of, since they went all digital, wouldn't he be looking at a higher cost anyways? Many carriers offer free data for certain streaming providers, such as Netflix, meaning he could get a basic ~$20 plan and not pay for any of the data used for streaming Youtube or movies.   Now, if he is talking about a VCR (since we are talking old tech like TV anyways, ;) ) you are going higher out of pocket with a $200 television and a $100 media player, than you would with the above plan, you your aren't incurring data storage issues such as you would if you were going stone age with no internet.   If it were me, I would just get a mobile hotspot/phone enabled hotspot and a basic tablet.   Which is what I have done. It makes road trips so much easier for music (why use XM when you can stream iHeart or similar for free) or take DVDs for a mobile player when you can stream Netflix. The days of 'Are we there yet?' are nonexistent when she is watching movies in the backseat.   While some might see this as the lazy alternative, I fully embrace the digital age, I predict two generations will completely end physical media beyond a novelty or collector status. I do however prefer private storage methods over the cloud. 

If they are liberals I have a difficult time considering them as family.

If he likes Ruger Ruger SR 1911 Commander Talo

You can pick your friend's but not your family. Their house their rules. Leave the gun in your car and enjoy their company. Life is too short to alienate your family.

Any early model S&W, Especially N Frames.

Nice one man. I've hunted with my '42 1903 Rem. a few times but, haven't had any luck while I was hunting with it.

  I look at it this way as long a liberal does not show me his azz then I have no need to show them my dick....

I'm glad it ran great. It is a fine looking weapon for sure

Test fired it yesterday. Gun was so tight, it didn't cycle at first, but as I manually cycled it each shot, it started pushing the bolt rearward more. By the second 30rd mag, it fired and cycled like a champ! With the SD3G, mag dumps were easy. With the AA XLP, it didn't recoil, so laying those rounds on target fast was easy. :up: This was my first AR build and I'm very pleased with it. :D

  I get a totally blank white page, meaning my AV is also blocking it.   That does not mean its bad -- AV can be extra paranoid and sometimes a buggy script results in legit things being blocked --  but it can't be good either.   Whatever is going on,  I can't see the text without lowering my security, which I won't do.

Me too...

About 10-12 years ago I got in on a group buy and picked up three EOTech 512s at a really great price. One went on a rifle right then and is still in use.. One has been on several different rifles over the years and currently sits atop my Socom 16.. The third, still new in the box, was used as partial payment on a rifle I bought last year and I was credited 1 1/2 times what I paid for it.  All three still work perfectly. I understand that real battlefield conditions can be hard on equipment and failures do occur. But for my uses, the EOTechs have done very well.  So rather than just saying EOTechs suck, I think the real issue here is that the company hid a known problem.  

Done.

Have the LCR , great pocket gun. I also have 5 Kahrs , my EDC is a 1911. The Kahr can not be beat as a back up or EDC. You can fit the Kahr .380 in your nose.

I used one for my "work" weapons and they are just fine. Ive seen more M68s break than anything else. Im down to buy $50 EoTechs lol. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Sounds like a good time. I fish the Caney for the big browns. 

Maybe they get really cheap and I can buy one or two.... I love them. 

I have two. May pick up a couple more if the price really drops. I'm like Slappy. The dot in my Aimpoint looks like a kidney stone. The Eotechs look great.

I am not sure they could do a second season.     And that made me think that the Axis did not win, that the war only went as we know it to have gone.  And maybe Tagomi was imaging a reality that the show presented.   Why were the Americans collecting the movies and sending them to "the man in the high castle"  ( calling him that so as to not ruin that for people who did not watch yet.)   I really found it all confusing and want to re watch it.   If anyone is into revisionist history then read books by Harry Turtledove.   I have read a lot of his work and the books are impossible to put down.  Guns of the South was impossible to put down and is a stand alone book.  He also did a series that had the South winning the war and WW2 playing out in north America.

i have never had any problems with them.
