I normally don't post things like this but this is really good. Especially listen to the part from 1:20 to 1:37 . There is no other statement that is more true than that part about background checks and bans.  Again listen to part 1:20 to 1:37 . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHAnTa_cxEg

With all the doom and gloom going on now days I decided to post something on a lighter note. If this doesn't bring a smile to your face, you might be a lost cause. [url=http://postimage.org/][/url] [url=http://postimage.org/]free upload[/url]

pretty sure he only wants to restrict gun sales to citizens who are law abiding.

I'll vouch for that. I have a 16 year old husky. She's always been great with people. Likes most dogs except a few she didn't know that approached my daughters. She's been a great dog. She's coming to the end of her road. We just about need a pill sorter for her. She's my big fluffy and sheds a ton but she is worth it. I would invest in a Dyson vacuum if you get a Husky!

Fellas, git yerself a padded electric guitar gig bag. Perfect for a rifle and you can fit 7 or 8 mags in the front pocket of most of them. You just look like a rock star, not a paranoid gun nut. Appearances are everything. That's all I'm gunna say.

I'd be about a suspicious of them buying that many cell phones as I would a couple toothless hillbillies buying up all the sudafed. It's not illegal but it sure does look suspicious.

60 cell phones being bought by foreign speaking Muslims....uh yes, I would call Homeland Security. Or I guess I could wait until the bombs started going off.

I understand. It surely is. I just seem to be in the rather unique position of having screwed up myself during my life and don't think I deserved to die for it. [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Eaten alive is really not accurate. An alligator tends to drag its victim down to drown it before consuming it. Anyway, I just think Karma's a bitch, and I don't feel sorry for him at all. :shrug:

Pretty much, I no longer care if I'm printing. The vast majority of the people don't notice.

My court date is later this afternoon. Until then I'll be watching My Cousin Vinny, hoping to learn not only what attire to wear but also how to handle myself properly. Wish me luck!

Good post. I’m not a Redneck or an infidel; but I’m damn sure a Patriot. Not only does our citizenry need to be outspoken; they need to step up. We caused this mess and “The People” is the only ones that can get us out of it.

  I agree. However, I will sometimes forgive ignorance, but never stupidity. If the guy didn't know, he should have said he didn't know. It would have shown better customer service to take the time to look up the information than to spew false information.

just got called the F*** out! This is fantastic... https://www.facebook.com/EffenA79/videos/10202822203901766/

They are telling Americans "if you see something, say something."  That is all the Walmart did and I don't blame them for it. I think the police should have held them until FBI or Homeland Security could check these men out. Now that they know people are watching for things if these guys do have ugly plans they will probably speed their plans before anyone higher up can investigate them.......jmho

I will add one thing that has been mentioned once already. Like most people said the public doesn't notice printing or even OC very much. But if you act nervous and are constantly touching and adjusting your holster or gun, then it draws attention to it. Sent from behind the anvil

I look at like this; a burglar if confronted will not quietly go away and will fight to keep himself out of jail.  If he has to hurt you or your family to get away, he probably will; look at that 6 year old that got stabbed/murdered.  What the hell could a 6 year old do to warrant that?  No, a burglar forfeits his life by entering my home, period.   As for the alligator, I say deputize it.

The easiest way to divert attention from printing is to have your zipper down. Trust me, you can OC, and they will not see the gun. That one... anyway.

This has happened before, a few times actually.  Start the search at the local strip clubs and go from there.

I saw the Vickers post. I'm with John C. I LIKE my Eotechs, and they work fine. If I was in the business of doing CQB with polar bears, I would be pissed. Right now, my Aimpoint gets shuffled between rifles because I like using Eotechs MUCH better, crappy battery, inaccurate Polar Bear CQB problems and all.

If it works, why join the frenzy? It might bankrupt a company making a good product. Not taking sides and I don't own one... But I don't operate in adverse conditions like mil/leo's so if my EOTech worked flawlessly as a civilian owned range toy, I would not try to get a refund.

After many years we just switched insurance providers. Saved hundreds!! +1 on keep your chit in check !

I'm single with no kids. Therefore I don't have to justify it to anyone but my bank account :D

I can promise anyone this. If I was ever faced with a scenario such as this one and I am armed I will not be shot in the back. I might get shot but it will be because I am facing my enemy and doing everything in my power to if not kill them at least hurt them, or discourage them and do a Shock n Awe till the Calvary does arrive since they won't be expecting a soft target to shoot back...................... :usa:

  Has someone started making something chambered in .38 S&W again?

      You 2 make good points, now that I stop and think about it. I am a big fan of how they use the money. You've inspired me to send them a Christmas present, but technically I'm the one that gets the benefit of the gift. Thanks for the reminder.

 *BATFE and FBI like this.

In case you don't have a facebook... :p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnWHC7B34Qw

Maybe, but I sure wouldn't have called police. No reason to get the state involved over someone partaking in a perfectly legal activity. Kinda like how we would be up in arms, pardon the pun, if we got swatted by Mothers Demand for open or concealed carrying. No difference.

I stopped worrying about printing a long time ago. As everyone has said most people don't know what's going on around them. I carry a fullsize M&P because if I need to use a handgun I want more than 7 or 8 rounds. Nothing wrong with the smaller guns I just like having the full size frame, grip and mag capacity.

If all that is true it reminds me of something that happened in Arizona. It used to be that you could go out in the desert and shoot most anywhere. You can't do it anymore cause gun owners would trash the areas and never pick their crap up after they finished so they ruined it for themselves. 

The vast majority of the hunters that regularly voice their opinion would like to see more mature bucks (that's exactly how we ended up going from a 3 buck limit to a 2 buck limit) and if they feel that to many are still tagging out on the little immature bucks, they'll start screaming for a one buck limit because they would rather only get one really nice mature buck than have to settle for two or three small to mediocre bucks. I personally won't advocate for a one buck limit but I definitely wouldn't fight it. Id personally rather see a "at least 4 points on one side" regulation. As long as you're not in the eastern zone, you can legally kill more doe than you could possibly eat or even give away. It sucks for the guys and gals in east TN because they only have a few chances to take a doe unless they hunt muzzloader and archery. I really felt like if they were going to take the 3rd buck away from them that they should have allowed them to replaced that with a doe that they could take at anytime they were allowed to take the buck. Many have actively sought to demonize those in favor of the 2 buck limit a pretend there's some sort of "meat hunter/trophy hunter war going on. By their definition of trophy hunter, you'd have to let the big ones walk and only kill the babies to not be one. The me a trophy hunter is someone that hunts animals that aren't eaten i.e. cheetahs and such. I manage and only kill mature bucks and will even get them mounted but I'm not a trophy hunter. I process and eat whatever I kill, the mount (trophy) is a bonus.

That's a pretty cool fold up, JohnC!

Oh, oh, oh, tell him you're shooting .40 out of it! :rock:

Whatever I get, the prerequisite is that it have enough azz to back up its bark.  That was one thing my Pitt was never lacking.  I really like the Malinois breed, although smaller and leaner than my Pitt was, they make up for it in lighting speed.     Check this one out @ 3 minutes in, he almost clears a compact sedan.  LOL! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1q85DqtZmCE

I don't see it being much different being shot at whether it's a rifle or a pistol.  The shooter can't point and fire any more quickly with one over the other, and in the type of indoor environment where these shootings take place the range advantage of a rifle isn't really an issue.  The only advantage the shooter would have is magazine capacity, but based on some research I have read these shooters don't typically walk in and dump rounds rapid fire.  Instead, they walk around and select targets to shoot at so you should have the same amount of time to react whether the shooter has a long gun or a hand gun.  I'm also rethinking my carry method and strongly considering going back to my Sig P228 over the single stack 9mm I've been carrying.  If I'm going to be facing some ISIS ****bag armed to the teeth, I want as many rounds ready to deploy as possible.  I carried a 13 round P-229 on duty over a 7 shot compact 9mm pistol as a LEO in case I had to face down a serious threat, so if there is now a real possibility I will be facing a similar threat now, why would I do any differently?  Honestly, during an indoor event at close range, I'd rather have a shotgun than a rifle or a handgun, but since that's not viable I figure 15 rounds of 9mm that I can put downrange accurately is my best option.  Now, would I actively seek out the shooter and attempt to terminate the threat?  The answer is "maybe" depending on the circumstances.  If I feel I can find and maintain adequate cover and concealment, I very well might.  That's the former LEO in me, and I am the type that would want to do something to save people's lives if at all possible.  I am not going to put myself into the line of fire except in the most crucial of situations, such as to defend my family or some children.  At the end of the day, I figure it's the responsibility of adults to decide how best to secure their own safety and well-being.  If they chose to not carry a firearm for their own protection, I am not inclined to put my life at risk to save theirs.   A couple of other considerations:  1) These shooters typically seek out soft targets (a.k.a. so-called gun-free zones), so one has to decide what type of risk they are going to take when faced with the need to go to such a location.  2) You should have a plan in place on how to conduct yourself once law enforcement arrives.  The last thing you want is to be a visibly armed individual when a bunch of adrenaline fueled cops locked and loaded for a shootout come rushing into the venue.  They are not likely to be especially interested in spending much time determining whether the person holding a gun is a good guy or a bad guy and will very quickly terminate any perceived threat.  Doesn't do me much good to use my gun to defend myself only to be killed by the police when they show up.
