  1. My first gun was a crossman bb/pellet gun. My first real gun was a Remington .22lr, I wish I still had it...

    The crickets look like a nice starter, but I will probably try to find a Remington single shot for my boy when he is ready.

  2. so if we have a law now that specifically states guns cannot be rounded up in times of emergency how would Johnny Law get to do this? wouldn't any command to do that be in direct violation of the laws they are sworn to uphold?

    I believe the war for states rights made it clear, that is not the case with state laws. The federal government does not have to pay any attention to them.

  3. I think the 10th Amendment answers the question:

    The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.

    Unfortunately, the government has already shown that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights mean nothing.

  4. Montana steps up regarding DC v. Heller.

    "

    HELENA—Secretary of State Brad Johnson joined the many other Montanans who have weighed in on the DC v. Heller case currently before the U.S. Supreme Court. A letter to the editor from Johnson appeared in today’s Washington Times, urging the court to protect an individual’s right to bear arms.

    “This is an important issue for Montanans,†Johnson said. “Many of Montana’s elected officials spoke out on this issue; I am proud to be among them.â€

    The letter can be found at this link.

    Johnson’s letter argued that Montana’s agreement with the United States to enter the union included Montana’s constitution at the time, which guaranteed the right of “any person†to bear arms. He urged the Supreme Court to uphold an individual rights interpretation of the Second Amendment, rather than a collective interpretation, as best in keeping with Montana’s Compact with the United States.

    Many other elected officials around Montana have concurred in a statement of the same argument, in a bipartisan effort to defend Montanans’ individual right to keep and bear arms. The list of officials, as well as their resolution, can be found at: http://www.progunleaders.org."

  5. Carter Shooting and Hunting Supply on Hwy 58

    And I think Sportsman's on Hixon Pike might rent too...not a 100% sure on that, so call them first: 423-870-3474

    Thanks for the info. I went by Sportsman's last night and he does not rent, but did try to convince me of a 23 as well.

    edit: or perhaps what he actually said, is he had no g23s for rent...

  6. Anyone familiar with any ranges local to the Chattanooga area that rent?

    I have been looking at getting a g22, but all the gun shops try to talk me into a g23. I know the g23 is smaller, which is good for certain reasons, but I aint to sure about the feel and have never shot one.

    any direction is much appreciated.
