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:

  When all else fails read the directions.   I will never buy from someone who knows less than me about a  product.  They are in the business of selling guns they should know how they work and what the capabilities are.   And people wonder why brick & mortar shops are dying.

I don't worry about printing. Most people are too buried in their cell phones to notice.

This wasn't directed at me, but I'll take a crack at it ayway. I spend a lot of money each year on licenses, and I don't intend to go home empty-handed. If it's legal, and I decide to shoot a deer, I can't see a problem with it.

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.

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

  They never stop.  I'm a Patron member and I still get dunned monthly at least.

LOL! Well, the wifey knows I'm shopping for reloading gear and a rifle, neither of which I currently have, so.... I could get a .22 rifle 'for the boys', but she'd know a .308 w/ scope isn't a plinker for the kids!

I've pocket carried my LCR .357 for quite a while thinking it would be enough in most cases such as a robbery in a large parking lot at night but lately I've been carrying either my Glock 30 OWB or the FNS9 compact IWB in addition to the LCR because of terrorist attacks such as San Bernidino. The extra rounds might come in handy. I don't really expect to be in that situation but neither did the people in San Bernidino.

  I would drive one of those in a heartbeat! Especially if I could get it in a burnt orange color! LOL

The very first high powered rifle I shot as a kid was my Dad's Savage Model 99e in .308 Win. Of course even then, it was amazing to watch my Dad shoot it, and train my younger brother and I the correct and safe way to handle weapons. I loved shooting his Rem 870, his Super Blackhawk .44 mag, his Security Six .357, his multiple .22 lr rifles and the Stevens 20 gauge single shot that was our first "my own" gun. But there was always "something" about that Savage. At that point in my life, I didn't have a favorite type of rifle as in bolt action vs lever action so I know it didn't have anything to do with my affection for this particular 99. I think most of it was just because it was Dad's, but a lot was because I watched him re-checker it and change the stock from the darker color to the almost blonde color that it has been most of it's life. In my 20's I slipped into the work, chase girls, drink beer, and hanging with friends mode. So my hunting and shooting days were very few and far between, something I regret to this day. As I entered my 30's all of that faded away and hunting & shooting became part of my desires again. Dad and I talked guns and ammo talk more than we ever had, and I'd missed that. Somewhere along the way I'd started messing with him saying "Dad, you know that ole Savage is just gathering dust. You need me to take care of it for you? <insert laugh>". He'd always come back with one of a hundred responses ranging from "I think I'm gonna get it out and clean it" to "You know, I believe I'm gonna deer hunt with that this year" and the occasional "Oh, you'll get it one of these days". The latter being the one that worried me because I didn't want to get it the way most children get their parents weapons, in a will. But the jokes have continued all this time and even in texts: "Dad, just wanted to see if y'all were coming down this weekend .308" or I'd text him and say "I have break coming up, call me at 3:08" and always made for good laughs but to no avail haha. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago and Dad began asking about my Rem 700 SPS Tactical .308 and talking about getting one. We talked stock and optic options as well as pricing variances. I began online shopping and sending him info on different ways he could go. He came in town this past Tuesday to visit with us while my brother and his family were in town from San Diego. He'd also picked up my new bow and brought it in with him so I met him at Bass Pro after work and we talked a lot and looked at some rifles while shooting the crap about life happenings. We left empty handed, which never happens with us, and we'd decided to go to local gun shops on Thursday and Friday for more shopping and hands on. He ended up buying the SPS Wednesday while I was at work, so shopping was done haha. He had them mount his base, rings, and his Leupold scope when he picked it up. I told him that we'd sight it in Saturday while we were having a family get together in Whites Creek. Saturday morning comes and I've packed up a couple AR's and my Rem 700, a ton of ammo and targets for a day of shooting that I've been waiting for a LONG time. One with my brother and Dad being there at the same time. With my brother being in S.D. it's rare to have the time and place availability for us to shoot together. I show up at my sister's place, start unloading everything before Dad gets there and he pulls in shortly after. I meet him at the back of his truck and we're looking at his new rifle, as he grins and tells me he can't wait to shoot it. He's a Marine so I know he's excited :usa: Everyone spreads away from the truck tailgate and Dad says "Hey, I gotta talk to you about something when everyone leaves". I'm thinking of what I could have done to hear those words after all these years of no ass whoopins lol. He slides another rifle case towards the tailgate and starts to open it while speaking "Look, I know you've loved this rifle since you were a kid. I'm sure I'm gonna be happy with this new one. I know you'll appreciate it for what it is, and I know you'll take good care of it. Put it in the truck and take care of it." This is the part where I just stare at the rifle, then stare at Dad in pure disbelief for what seemed like 30 minutes but was in reality probably 2 minutes. If I'd had to guess how I would have reacted I would probably think big smile, screaming with excitement, telling him thank you a hundred times and hugging him and saying I love you and I'll take good care of it. Well, that is NOT what happened, I couldn't say anything, probably mumbled something I'm not sure followed by a "Are you serious or teasing me again?" Well it was real, I didn't touch the gun, I hugged him and thanked him and told him I loved him and that I was glad that he handed it to me and that I didn't have to wait until he was unable to use it anymore to get it. My arms were covered in goosebumps the entire time, he even noticed it and said "Damn, are you okay?" I told him I wasn't sure. I packed it in the truck, still not believing that I was taking it home. Then we got out the SPS's and sighted his in. It was dead on accurate and he was needless to say very excited with it! My brother came down in the field and shot it as well which made it the perfect day! Anyway, sorry it's so long but if someone bought me a Barrett .50 cal tomorrow it would not be a more exciting Show & Tell thread for me. I can't wait to shoot it, try out some different ammo in it, and will definitely be taking it in the woods this year to deer hunt once gun season opens up!! Signed, Happy Ain't The Word

And every other terrible implement of the soldier... Bring it on, I want to buy a reasonably priced Thompson before I kick the bucket.

The greatest face I can think of for the responsible, law abiding, American gun owner. I wish there were more like him. He'd make a good NRA president.

Sorry about your loss and praying for your family. Don't sell or you'll regret it later, and you can never replace.
