Re: Today in Trump's 1st term as President

Trivia that probably everyone on this forum knows, but I'll bet only about 1 in 1,000 freshmen starting college this month is aware of. The oath the President of the United States takes upon inauguration--unlike the oath mayor took or the one the Vice President takes--is unique among all office hol...

Re: NC: A bit of a black eye for us

In addtion to the guy having his neck grazed, the article also said someone was hit in the leg. That would sound like the angle was upfrom the ground, through the leg (or along the side of it) and then past the guys neck. I'm guessing he was sitting since he was eating. I guess that's a consistent t...

Re: NC: A bit of a black eye for us

Sounds like it didn't have a firing pin block. Was it improperly left hammer down? 1911's were designed to be carried cocked and locked. That may be the case. It didn't say in the article but it makes the most sense. I know there is also the grip safety but I have not looked into exactly how that s...

NC: A bit of a black eye for us

I ran across this article on the local news website from May 8th however the incident was in NC. According to this, a pistol fell out of a guys pocket in Craker Barrel and went off, nicking one person and hitting another. The article says it was a Colt 1911 MK4. Makes me wonder if it was really in h...

Re: March 2, 1836 - Texas Declares Independence

Next time someone says secession is illegal or that people don't have the right to self-determination as identified in the Declaration of Independence, remind them of how this state came to be an independent country and ask them if it was legal to do so. Yes it was illegal, it was against Mexican l...

Re: Sellier & Bellot Rubber Buckshot.. Why?

Made me think of the old school "rock salt"...I don't know if that was real or legend but my understanding, used to chase off trespasser, thief, etc. I don't know of anyone actually using rock salt just heard anecdotes. We have talked on here before about not wanting to use lethal force t...

Watch the video, you can see his empty hand at the start and never pulls a gun throughout. You can see his finger extend.

Re: IL: Man is killed trying to grab a CHL's gun during potential road rage

You have your scenario of someone uses mean words and pushes you so you pull your gun but don't shoot. You pull it "as a warning" or to be prepared. It's my opinion at that point that you yourself have threatened deadly force and lose any self defense claim. This would not be true in Texa...

Re: IL: Man is killed trying to grab a CHL's gun during potential road rage

Let's just draw an analogy here. You are walking down the isle in a grocery store when someone approaches you utilizing mean words. They then give you a shove and back away. Would you pull out your gun, shoot them and then be able to claim self defense? I am asking with sincerity. I would not emplo...
