Alliance Air Show

I'm thinking about taking my father and son to the Alliance Air Show this weekend. I was really looking at their site for schedule information, but happened upon the "prohibited items" list. I was actually surprised to see that they didn't mention weapons at all. I clearly can't take my te...

Re: Straw Man Query

Unless things have changed in the last 10 years. If you are buying a firearm to gift to someone who can legally own and possess a firearm, then the answer to the question on the 4473 form, "are you buying the firearm for yourself" is yes, because you plan to use it as a gift from you. IAN...

Re: Traffic Violation

Before LEO gets to your car, have your DL, LTC and insurance in hand with your hands on steering wheel. This will prevent any misunderstandings that might arise if you start grabbing for stuff after officer has approached the vehicle. Huh???? Don't you think the LEO can see you fumbling around befo...

Re: State Fair - Again

Wand wavers are a thing of the past at the fair, my wife confirmed they are all walk-though detectors this year.

Good thing considering how much they missed in years past.

I had the same thought.
The Texas State Fair is not run by geniuses.

Re: John Cornyn of Texas is focused on bump-stocks

P.S.: Why would a normal person want a device to increase firing rate anyway? Using a loopholes is what Obama preferred to do, isn't it? My $.02 is that one wanting a full auto should man up and get it using the legal way with all the implied paperwork and taxes. :patriot: I don't own any bump stoc...

Re: John Cornyn of Texas is focused on bump-stocks

Anybody else baffled by the NRA's call for additional regulations on bump fire stocks? :headscratch I think the NRA is trying to get something (National Conceal Carry Reciprocity) in return for agreeing to regulations on bump stocks. We can, of course, debate whether that is the right course to tak...

Re: John Cornyn of Texas is focused on bump-stocks

For the record, before it goes there on this board, I'm not bashing the NRA. I'm simply curious why in the world they would give up this ground so quickly. I'm actually confused.

Re: Las Vegas Mandalay Bay Active Shooter

Will we ever know his motive? Will we ever know the complete truth of what really happened and who was really involved or knew what he was planning? We should know more than we do now....which is nothing as far as a motive goes. I don't remember a case with a dead suspect that we knew so little abo...
