    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    I have read it. No need to be rude about it all. Things are never clear cut. If you read Article 35, Section 15, paragraph 2: (a) The actor reasonably believes that such other person is using or about to use deadly physical force. Even in such case, however, the actor may not use deadly...

    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    However, you are justified in shooting someone who is committing the crime of robbery regardless of a retreat path?

    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    Then what is the difference between this and a state that supports Castle Doctrine?

    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    Good to hear and I don't agree with the law but its still the law.

    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    Either way, in NY, you cant shoot them for simply breaking in or trespassing.

    Homeowner charged after shooting teen attempting to break into his car

    And yet there are many who claim 'come on my property and I'm gonna shoot first.'

    Starting a "What did you Get today" thread. Let's give it a try (dont forget pics)

    I love it. Picked up a Henry rifle and a Ruger Blackhawk in LC. Both guns are a blast to shoot. (no pun intended)

    Dog shoots woman

    Oklahoma is an open carry, no permit required state, so I guess the dog did nothing wrong.

    FBI probe into Cuomo's hiring sparks $1.2 million legal contract

    It is worse than the investigation believes. Not only did he hide chamber employees in various agencies, but he also instructed the heads of those agencies to do the actual 'hiring' and state such when asked, in an effort to cover the trail.

    Michigan Bill Would Put Gun-Free Zone On The Hook For Injuries

    If this passes, the next bill will be to hold gun manufacturers liable for shootings. This way they can pay injury claims. Really bad idea.

    Virginia police officer suspended after turning in suspected undocumented immigrant over to ICE

    So I guess we can assume that officers of today are trained to uphold 'some' of the laws. Excuse me while I check to see if I can arrest you.

    Stephanopoulos gets smack down by Rudy Giuliani

    Not sure I would say it was a smack down. Giuliani often comes off as crazed. He backtracks often. In this interview, he said he would not cooperate with the intel committee hearing (as long as Schiff is running it). Stephanopoulos says, so you wont cooperate. Giuliani says, I didnt say...

    Lying piece of Schiff...

    Agreed, it wasn't the smartest thing to do but i highly doubt it will end in an impeachment, especially the way Schiff is spinning the facts. So much so that he comes off as flat out lying.

    Help Identifying Shotgun

    I was given my grandfathers double barrel 16 gauge shotgun by my mom. My grandfather passed away nearly 50 years ago so only rumors about the gun remain. Story has it that a farmer in France gave the gun to my grandfather during WW2. He brought the gun back to the states and hunted with it...

    NYSAFE: ammunition background check implementation

    I agree with you 100%. I don't feel cornered. The chief simply pointed me to this article as a reference. Bottom line, ammo in a cardboard box going off from heat is not going to do much. Ammo contained in a metal (military style) ammo can (lol) will cause an explosion and most likely throw...

    NYSAFE: ammunition background check implementation

    I am friends with the local fire chief. He is a gun guy so I didn't feel funny asking him about ammo storage. He said, if they are aware of ammo stored in a building that is on fire, the department will let the building burn. Same goes if they find out that there are propane tanks, large...

    NYSAFE: ammunition background check implementation

    I spoke to someone I know in the Governors office. He said he has not heard anything other than what went around in August (EXCLUSIVE: Stewart-Cousins calls out Cuomo over unfulfilled promise to create ammo database ) He did go on to say that he may not necessarily hear about gun legislation...

    Colt is stopping civilian production of their rifles

    That price is in the realm of reality. Python, no longer made, considered by many to be the best revolver ever made. Even with a re-release matching the original exactly, the originals will go for more. Given inflation, I would anticipate paying $1500 to $2000 for a reissue matching the...

    Colt is stopping civilian production of their rifles

    The original Python never left back order status. I agree, there is not a huge market for $7000 revolvers but if they sold the Python in the $1200 to $1500 range, they could produce the original again and sell an unlimited number of them, saving the company. I had my LGS put me on his back...

    Best Moments From The Lewandowski Hearing

    Typical reporting. Gun used to defend and the media spins it to make the attackers sound like the victims.

    Pro gun Democrats?

    I know several pro gun dems. Guns just aren't their primary concern. They are dems because they support the overall agenda. When it comes to gun legislation, they either ignore it or speak their mind hoping to have an impact, just like everyone with an opinion. I am a republican but I don't...

    Heard something in the living room and went out with a gun

    True but still less than a .223. I hate it when the bullet passes through the den wall, then the living room wall, the kitchen wall (after punching a hole in the fridge), into the garage and the windshield I just replaced from the last time I shot the gun in the house.

    Your choice of course, but then your dealing with the fallout of having shot someone when there are better/other choices. Fudd? hardly. ARs and such are amazing guns for a variety of circumstances. In home defense, not really. Momentary weapon lights is a great way to give away your...
