Re: ATF Released New Proposed Pistol Brace Rules
From the NRA-ILA about an hour ago: BREAKING NEWS: NRA Slaps Biden Admin With Lawsuit Over 'Unlawful' Pistol Brace Rule In a lawsuit filed Monday, the NRA aims to expose "the failings of the new rule – which subjects law-abiding gun owners to penalties, fines, and potential prison sentences fo...

Re: Missing tourist submarine at Titanic wreck site
“ The Titan’s hull was constructed from two different materials: carbon fiber-reinforced plastic and titanium.” Your kidding me? https://twitter.com/williamlegate/status/1672335515004162050?s=21 It shows a computer monitor screwed into the carbon fiber hull. I’ve read other accounts that say the ve...

Re: ATF Released New Proposed Pistol Brace Rules
I’m a member of the Indiana Gun Owners forum as well, and they of course have a thread or six on the ATF pistol brace rule. One of the members, who I believe is a lawyer, did a summary of all (9) the lawsuits pertaining to the pistol brace rule. He also provides some legal definitions, to help figur...

Re: England: the Royal Family
… Has there ever been two people who say they want to be left alone but spend so much time and effort being noticed and drawing attention to themselves? If they hadn't gone to the press with this story...there wouldn't have been one. Clowns. Posting pictures is too big a nuisance on this forum, but...

Re: Firefighter/EMT Wrist Watch suggestions
I was a volunteer firefighter EMT for a while, and in the Air Force before that. For actual day-to-day work, I came to prefer an inexpensive plain face easy to read in the low light watch that if I smashed it on the edge of a door or something I wouldn’t cry about the loss. And if I got “ickum” on i...

Re: Democrats now want our Silencers
The bump stock rule was genius. It only affects an accessory, not any existing firearm, it headed off Congress from having to take up the issue due to public pressure and promulgate a law that would be much harder to overturn, and it’s provided a vehicle to bring some sorely needed limits to executi...

Re: new mortage rules for may 1st
Sounds like a great plan to collapse the economy. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: That’s been Brandon’s economic policy since day one. The worse the economy (and everything else) the more the federal government “needs” to create and exercise new powers. Health care, mass shootings, high inflation,...

Re: Traveling to states up north.
I believe the case that Howdy and srothstein are referring to is Revell vs Port Authority of New York and New Jersey . You can read about it here: https://www.leagle.com/decision/infco20100322054 The point they’re making still holds, but some of the details are a little off. Revell was travelling fr...

Re: Is a club considered "deadly force"?
Federal Judge Benitez, who I think is the judge who has been noted for striking down some California laws that violate the second amendment, somewhat strangely, in my opinion, recently came to the conclusion that California’s law, preventing people from carrying or even possessing billy clubs does n...

Re: Academy asking unnecessary questions
…. During my annual a few years ago my Dr said "I'm supposed to ask you if you have any guns in your house, but, since this is Texas I just assume everyone does." I replied.... "If I didn't, could you write me a prescription for one? And, would my insurance cover it?" He thought...

Re: Traffic stop in Houston
When I was stationed in Germany, intersections on rural highways that had regular traffic lights often had a special single lense traffic light a couple hundred meters or so in front of the intersection displaying “70”. If the “70” was green, It meant that as long as you were doing at least 70 km/h ...

Re: Federal District judge issues injuction against California's Handgun Roster
I like the info in the armed scholar, but the titles of their videos are over the tips of their skis usually. If I recall correctly, this was simply a temporary injunction, which is a good thing but just means we won the first skirmish; long way to the end of the battle and the war. California will ...
