I mean if setting cars on fire and waving the Mexican flag around is considered success then I suppose they're very successful. If stopping ICE raids and turning public opinion is their goal...yeah, not so much.
See @gunpoliticsny thread for more details. My gut says that the legislation with companion bills in both the Senate and Assembly will probably pass. That means 10-day waiting period after a NICs check and likely a ban on Glocks and Glock-clones (easily convertible to fully automatic and all...
Agreed. We didn't quite get there with my father, but it was close. However, I see what's going on north of the border in Canada and it gives me pause. When there's no hope of recovery and the individual consents to it I'm all about allowing folks the choice to check-out on their own terms. I...
My father thankfully passed before we had to put him in a nursing home but my mom and I were just about getting ready to do it (we couldn't care for him anymore). But if he had to go into skilled nursing they would take everything they had before Medicaid would pay anything like they did with...
Jesus. Didn't they learn anything from Remington? If I remember correctly they wanted to save something like .30 cents ($30 back in the day adjusted for inflation) for a trigger and created a possibility for the gun going off by barely touching it.
I have both a Remington 700 (manufactured...
I have a 320 (plain jane model...not any tricked out ones) that I sent back during the "voluntary, totally not a recall" Sig offered when the issue first cropped up. Haven't had a problem yet. Also haven't dropped it either and it's always only gone bang when I've pulled the trigger. Still it...
Every week I'm required to write a bulleted list of what I did for the work and what I expect to do for the next week. To me that is not unreasoable.
However, it should be coming from a manager and not a random OPM email or one of Musk's tweets. Seriously, this guy is almost worse than Trump...
I had high hopes for the guy when he was first elected. Thought maybe he could the "one" that we all could get behind. Then he started talking about supporting red flag laws and he's basically dead to me.
I'm not the biggest Tucker fan out there (I like a lot of his takes but not all) but if...
The politicians know for a fact this will do nothing to stem gun violence. They're hoping for a quick settlement to pad their general fund. It's a cash grab plain and simple.
Hochul is very similar NYC Mayor Eric Adams in this regard. Both are progressive liberals who are deeply unpopular with voters and will likely not win reelection unless something drastic changes. Delgado dropping off the ticket shows that the Hochul Administration is a sinking ship and virtually...
I live in a community that has a lot of CO's. The stories I hear about conditions in the prisons are horrible. The inmates are literally running the asylum. I would never want to be a guard but it's a job that is sorely needed. There are plenty of scumbags who do not deserve to see the light of...
Yeah. I'll support Trump where I'll support him but not this. Gaza is a shit hole strip of land with a shit hole strip of people. Absolutely nothing good can come of us taking it over and putting boots on the ground.
I suspect this is just another of Trump's bluffs but it's a doozy. I don't...
My county prints the renewal date on the back of the PP. Mine is up for renewal in July of this year, though, I'll probably renew a bit sooner just to play it safe. Though, unless you ask them to reprint your PP you need to keep track of it.
Honestly, it really shouldn't be an issue for the...
I have a S&W 686 six inch that I use when I walk around my property (stumbled upon too many bears and don't want to take the chance to get mauled). I also have an S&W 649 (which I don't think they make anymore) also in .357. I would just suggest if you do get a snubby don't make a habit of...
I just like that the lever action rifle is having a moment again. I recently acquired a Marlin SBL and have yet to shoot it but boy howdy is she a beaut!
I was going to say, they look like Pelican cases. An organization I volunteer for bought two (not for guns) and they are built like tanks. Heavy as hell. Thankfully, the ones we got come with handles and wheels lol.
Just another slide into despotism. Pretty soon we'll be like the UK where knives over three inches long will be illegal and you'll go to jail for posting something .gov doesn't like on social media.
Wait? I thought Waltz was a hunter who respected gun rights? I mean he wore camo hats and everything on the campaign trail! /s
Seriously, anyone who thinks that a modern day Democrat could be pro-gun (or at very least gun neutral) needs to have their head examined.
I'll echo everyone else...
Just to add my 2 cents...when adding a pistol my county requires you to submit a copy of your recertification authorization with all your paperwork. Not sure what other counties do.
For every politician in a so-called sanctuary state that refuses to assist federal law enforcement with the deportation of illegal aliens, realize that Federal law supersedes anything that the states of localities implement. It's been that way since the founding of this country.
In short...
Their Mark IV is a solid .22 semi-auto pistol. I like mine. Way easier to dissemble than their Mark II, which I also have (inherited from my late grandfather).
I hate money. Or maybe just the thought of retirement. Or maybe I just have poor impulse control. I went to one of the local LGS's today to get a new sling because the one I had for my new Ruger American Gen II which I got earlier this year broke recently (really disappointed in that for what...
I know government officials receive threats all the time. Not sure about CEOs, especially non-household names like this guy. Personally, if I was getting threats like this I would be taking more precautions.
I really don't see the FBI, ATF or any other agency department going away. The Leviathan is just too big now. However, if we can starve/neuter them then maybe something good will come out of them.
Personally, I'm more for repealing bullshit laws (Patriot Act, SAFE Act, etc.) than I am about...
Never have bought an animal (unless you count chickens). Most of my pets (all cats) have either been litter runts that no one wanted, strays, or shelter animals. All of them have been amazing to me and fine companions.
Animal welfare is important. But I also don't like the heavy hand of...
Hunters have very specific seasons and deer is really only one time of the year (Fall/Early Winter) while hikers, etc. can go literally any time of the year they want. How about you shut up and let hunters (with their hunting implement of choice) have their opportunity in the woods. And let's be...
I kind of like to know what lead up to all this. Was he open carrying and some Karen just called the cops saying there was a dude with a gun or something else?
Trump won bigly not just with whites but also took a huge chuck of blacks and Latinos. This is something no one, especially Democrats saw coming. Also Gen Z (who a lot of folks like to crap on) went big for Trump too. Absolutely NO ONE saw that coming. Basically only women and upper middle class...
Attorney General James and Governor Hochul Commit to Protecting the Fundamental Freedoms of All New Yorkers as President-Elect Trump Prepares to Take Office
Sigh...what bullshitery are we in store for now?
Good. Maybe AfD can sort things out and make Germany a great country again and not a shithold dumping ground for Islamic extremeists.
Now we need Marie Le Pen's party to do the same in France.
