  1. Sixty eight years ago the tide turned in the European theatre of World War 2 as 130,000 allies stormed the Normandy beaches or infiltrated inland by glider or parachute. It was a desperate gamble which, although not perfectly executed, resulted in the liberation of France and ultimately other occupied nations. As long as we remember and honor their sacrifice, it will be natural to offer our own.

  2. This seems like a good time and place to ask. When an LEO asks if you know why you were stopped, shouldn't you play dumb and let him tell you why? I thought confessions only worked out well if you gave them to a priest.

  3. Just because it's sometimes called a scattergun, don't expect the shot to scatter much. Within the confines of your house, you won't be knocking them down two or three at a time. I have a Browning BPS with 20" barrel ion one side of the house and an 18" ithaca Model 37 on the other. They'll be good at defending from a fixed position, IMHO, but I won't go looking for BGs with them. Rather, I'll wait for them to come to me. I have handguns sprinkled throughout the house in various places in case the door gets kicked in, but the shotguns are my Alamo.

  4. It should be said that of the three, only John LeBoutillier is a Republican. Doug Schoen and Pat Cadell are "moderate" Democrats. Fox News is not criticizing the Romney campaign here, only letting these three put forth their opinions. I don't know what's going on behind the scenes in the Romney camp to counter Paul's ambitions. Perhaps a deal is in the works, but I suspect he's merely saving his ammo for Obama and not trying to short-circuit Paul as he did Gingrich and Santorum. Romney seems to be entirely focused on beating Obama and not getting sidetracked with inter-party dustups.

  5. Call me naive, but I can't imagine that a case would be decided by what kind of ammo a person used irregardless of other facts. "Well, sure the decedent was sticking up the convenience store and pointed his gun at the defendant, who drew his permitted pistol, ordered the decedent to drop his gun and dodged three bullets himself before firing in self defense. But he handloaded his own ammunition, thus ensuring that the decedent would be deader than factory made rounds."

  6. I need to meet up with some of you guys at these shows.

    As a newbie to the board, I'd like to know who the TGO members are who have a table at these shows. Why not put a small sign on the table to ID yourself or let us know where you'll be. Even if I'm broke I can still stop and say hello.
