    Trump names Sylvester Stallone, Mel Gibson and Jon Voight as ambassadors to ‘troubled’ Hollywood

    Apparently Gibson and Stallone found out about this when Trump posted it. Not sure about Voight, him and Trump are buddies.

    Recert repercussions? (Pistol permit)

    Exactly, that's why if you live here, it's up to YOU to pay attention. Because the NY elite are trying to entrap us, WE need to put our recertification on our calender. Ive done 2 recertifications with no issue, and my next one is on my calendar. NYS has not sent me any notification about my...

    NY proposed requirement for criminal BG check to purchase 3d printer.

    Good, we need more stupid shit like this. I will go out on a limb and guess that less than 1% of 3D printer buyers use them to build firearms. Out of the 99% remaining, I'll guess maybe 50% of them will be leftists. When they get denied being able to buy a printer because of a silly class 4...

    Recert repercussions? (Pistol permit)

    Ignorant gun owners give all of us a bad name. I also know a few. If you're going to own firearms in this state, you had better know the laws. Funny story about a guy I know..... He had been carrying a handgun for over 5 years at this time. He said something about almost having to defend...

    Living in a RV, and firearms......

    I have two Hernry rifles, ironically I won both of them at our local Rod & Gun club raffles....3 years apart. One lever action 45/70 and a lever action 44 Magnum. Ive only fired the 44 mag maybe 20x.....I really need to sell it maybe. Anyways, great rifles, but in my opinion, no better than my...

    Dry Firing Practice- Boring!!

    Yep, live fire gets boring too. Having a range in my yard, I get a lot of friends who want to shoot.....almost daily during nice weather. I used to be very into this. The last few years I just let them shoot sometimes. Now that even 9mm ammo is so expensive, I refrain from shooting quite often...

    National Reciprocity introduced in senate

    Right, it doesn't make sense, but that's how the bill reads apparently. But, I guess you get some perks for living in a state with better gun laws. :)

    National Reciprocity introduced in senate

    That's not what Anthony Miranda says. He has a video going through the wording of the bill. It clearly says that if you're state doesn't require a permit, you can carry anywhere without a permit.

    SHTF Reloading

    It's extra stuff. A few years ago a friend THOUGHT he was going to start reloading. He gave up on the dream and gave me all his new equipment. I already had my setup going, so his equipment just sits here in boxes.

    Tim Walz Endorses David Hogg for Vice Chair of the DNC

    I was just going to post this. From what I've seen, even the most progressive leftists don't like Hogg. He tends to talk down to people. And NOBODY likes to be talked down to by a beta male soyboy like Hogg. But most of all, he has one of the most punchable faces I've ever seen!

    Firearms in Movies I guess not NEWS BUT.....a New TERM

    I believe it has to do with the number and type of bullets you put in the clip of the shotgun. Hollow point buckshot can be deadly if more than 10 bullets are loaded. Less than 10, the gun is much safer.

    Scope Rings?

    Good information here, I have nothing to add. I will say that scope rings are one thing you don't want to skimp on. Bad rings can make a great scope worthless and great rings can make a bad scope serviceable.

    5th circuit reaffirms constitutional right

    Ive never heard of a pothead becoming enraged and shooting someone. But, there are a LOT of alcohol fueled shootings every day. I don't smoke weed, but I'm 100% against banning guns from weed users. I live in the boonies, I know many, many, MANY gun owning potheads. None of them scare me at all.

    Fantastic quality leather holsters at ridiculously low prices.

    The only issue I see with this belt is the way the buckle is connected is with the Kydex holster type screws, I believe they are called Chicago screws. The female part pushes through the back, the male part screws in. I put a dab of blue thread locker on the 2 screws....like I do with holsters...

    Speeding, drugs, guns and DWI

    From what I hear from cop friends, gangbangers use what they can find. 99.9% of the time they just have what came in the gun when they bought or stole it. Usually mismatched brands, types and often corroded. Inner city folk often live within a very small area their whole life. The odds there is...

    What's your EDC knife?

    My point was that 99% of edc users do not NEED super expensive boutique steels for the very limited use their knives see. Which of course, need has nothing do with it.
