Re: AR15 Build from 80% lower

If you have a workspace where the shavings aren't an issue, go with aluminum. If you're just going to make it in the garage, go polymer. Those aluminum shavings are like glitter and go EVERYWHERE. And some people in the home get a little upset when you track metal shavings into the house. Other thin...

Re: Recounts?

I also read that Stein would have no standing to call for a recount in PA. If the Dhims stole MI and WI, Trump would still win given he'd carried PA. This is all so much drama being dredged up by the media (and probably Soros) to keep fanning the flames of the hurt feelings of the left. Lot of smoke...

Re: Ft. Worth Zoo 30.06 Ruling Letter

Seems to me it's just saying they THINK it's LIKELY that a license holder wouldn't get convicted. Not sure I'd want to be the test case for this. I wouldn't hesitate to CC, It's not too high of a risk. The risk of getting caught, combined with the cost of defending oneself in the likelihood of most...

Re: Cabelas and buying a gun with my LTC

And, they carry the gun for you all the way out the door. The silliest move i ever seen. We used to conceal carry with no issues and now I open carry in the store and they still do the same silly transport of the gun for you. My understanding is that Academy does the same thing. But that's not the ...

Re: Ft. Worth Zoo 30.06 Ruling Letter

Took me a few minutes to find but below is the last paragraph of the relevant OAG's Opinion KP-0108 located here: https://texasattorneygeneral.gov/opinions/opinions/51paxton/op/2016/kp0108.pdf . This was referenced in the letter. A court would likely conclude that a license holder who carries a han...

Re: Cabelas and buying a gun with my LTC

Sounds like my experience as well. I had some discounts that I wanted to use and they had a rifle I wanted. But even before that, it took me three trips there before I could even talk to someone behind the gun counter. Typically when you go to the gun counter, the people behind the counter consist o...

Re: Just 3% of Americans own almost 50% of the country’s guns, study says

Not all states exempt their licensees from a background check when purchasing a firearm. I don't know which ones, but am fairly sure that Kansas is one of them. Several years ago when I purchased a rifle there I didn't expect to be able to skip the background check, but seem to remember them tellin...

Re: Just 3% of Americans own almost 50% of the country’s guns, study says

I think it all goes back to the validity of the study. Most gun owners, are very aware f the left's position, on gun bans, registries, background checks, and outright confiscation. So I would bet that only 3% of gun owners actually answered the question(s) truthfully. I would not tell anyone my own...

You know, just about every criticism on this debate could have been written a couple days before it started. So I preserved by own blood pressure and just skipped it.

Re: Bass Pro buying Cabela's

I read in one article that Cabela's was having issues selling a lot of their store brand apparel. Well, all it takes is one look at a price tag on some of that stuff to see why. They're quite proud of it. And I'm not willing to pay a premium to be a walking billboard for someone's business. It may b...

Re: Pro Gun Supporters have got it Wrong

Also keep in mind the mantra that the operative word in "gun control" is "control". The Progressives (Progs, sometimes referred to as Statists) want control of the populace. As stated, in Nazi Germany the Nazi Party was actually a minority. But the majority agreed with what they ...

Re: Shooting at Wichita Falls Gun Show

With two recent incidents of vendors not clearing the weapons they are selling before they arrive, it seems gun show promoters need to pay more attention to their vendors and quit worrying so much about LTC's carrrying in their shows. This. The last 3 ND's I know of at gun shows, two were vendors a...
