  1. You're injecting logic when I'm talking about time travel? You're right though, on the whole, it's no less onerous in one period or another. I just wish I could skip around the rules of special relativity to enjoy a few things.

  2. "New Colt AR15- same rifle now being used in Vietnam". I've been to Mahoney's many times. I'd have to believe that these advertised prices are a bit over the actual value at that time.

  3. I like to point this out when people talk about how much better The economy was when gas was 43 cents a gallon. Yeah, gas was 43 cents, per gallon, minimum wage was $1.50 an hour, and the car got 9 miles to the gallon. I know where we're at right now economically sucks, but you look at it in the grand scheme of things and how much we have paid for things in the past, and we're not that far off the charts. We were just really comfortable for a long time. This post does not insinuate in any way that any politician currently in power is or isn't doing even a mediocre job. Just an observation.

  4. From the light hunter series, I don't think they make it anymore, but a great optic for hunting and anything else medium range. Very nice glass for the money.

  5. Yes, on the tax dollars. I remember the first time I heard about this I looked it up and there was less than a million uniformed law enforcement officials. There also was less that a million and a half people in all of the military. Any given year they typically sell around 10 million deer hunting permits. Pretty impressive number just for deer hunters. If 10% of the deer hunters said no, that would be a million people. No telling how many other gun owners would say no, I'm betting a lot more than 10%. So add a couple more million. 3 million? That's a lot of people saying no. Weaponsman, before he died, had an article up saying there was up to 660 million guns in the US. I wouldn't be surprised if that was still low. https://billstclair.com/weaponsman.com/index.html%3Fp=33875 Either way, the numbers don't work out in favor of the people that like to take guns. Than means they will have to do something else. Like freeze your bank account, like they did the Canadian truckers (got any extra cash stashed at the house?). Or cut off your Social Security and Medicare. Maybe call your workplace and tell them they think you're a terrorist and cost you your job. Any or all of this until you decide to turn in your guns so you can eat or get medical care. I don't think they will ever come to anyone's home, there's not nearly enough of them to go around.

  6. The numbers may be big and scary, but the simple truth is that we have much more stuff today than people have had at any point in history.

  8. Minimum wage in the 60's was $1.60, I think, so you could buy about 18 rds/hr then. At $7.25 today, you can buy the same number of rounds if they're priced at roughly 40 cents each. In terms of purchasing power, not much has changed with ammo prices, seems like ...
