  1. ^^^^^^This.  If a shooting occurs during class time it could be useful.  If the shooting occurred before, between, or after classes I don't think they would be effective.  Of course students could duck into the nearest room and lock the door if there were a gunman.  I'm certainly not opposing locks on doors.  We can't be too careful and God knows money has been spent on dumber things.  
  2. There are rumors floating around that Obama will soon sign an executive order concerning gun control.  No one knows what is in it and more than likely no one has read it.  Sound familiar?  Feinstein will be introducing her gun control bill on January 22.   Not sure how long it takes for a bill to be voted on.  Personally I would be more scared of a ban that targets a little of this and a little of that as opposed to an all out ban on gun which is not expected to be presented and would not have a chance of passing.  It is the arguments that can be pleaded to the fence sitters that will get passed (i.e.  "No one needs assault weapons, no one needs high capacity magazines, etc.)  We have too many people that claim that they support the 2nd Amendment but in reality they only support it with restrictions. 
  3. I use a large eraser to clean stubborn burnt powder off of the frame and cylinder.  Comes right off without a lot of elbow grease.
  4. Was just about to post this and just saw that it had already been posted.  What a load of crap!
  5. Can't wait!  Unfortunately I just recently got cable.  I watched season 1 on Netflix and thought that we were just starting season 2 tonight but it looks like this is season 4.  Hopefully I will be able to grasp what is going on.  Another reason I really don't like Netflix.
  6. I can't find anything that states whether or not the park lake is open for fishing or not.  I took my daughter down there today to look at the ducks.  Unfortunately I live just a couple of miles from the park and I would like to take her fishing there.  I saw a bunch of big carp in there during the fair this year.  It would be a lot of fun to see her with a fish half as big as she is.
  7. What I've found works well for squirrels is I do exactly what I do when I go deer hunting, I just take a .22 instead. 
  8. Never ceases to amaze me how quickly people forget.  I mean my memory is pretty bad but I think I would remember an attempted genocide that happened to my race 2-3 generations ago.
  9. Good find.  Some surprised me, especially all of the Jewish organizations on the list.  I always thought that Jews were pretty pro gun every since they had their guns taken away and were round up and put into concentration camps.
  10. Recently I have been cataloging all of my valuables in case they are ever stolen.  With some reservation I uploaded all of the pictures that I have taken so far to Photobucket in a private album.  I did this so  that if I am ever robbed or my house burns down I can always access this important information from any internet access point.  So far I've just done my guns and some business equipment.  I take at least one full picture of each item then zoom in and get a good clear shot of the serial number.  I also plan on doing all of my vehicles and their VIN #s.  I had a vehicle stolen several years ago and it took me hours to find something with the VIN# on it, this way I can give them the VIN and a picture of the vehicle in minutes.  Just thought that I would share and maybe inspire others as well to save themselves huge headaches down the road.
  11. Here is my Feist and my mutt playing around I didn't dig that hole, I swear! Pretending to be good for a minute.
  12. Part of the article talks about boycotting numerous hotels that offer NRA discounts.  Evidently a bunch of antis have left hateful messages on these hotels Facebook pages threatening not to stay there.  Along with several others I left an encouraging message there along with that of the antis.  I encourage others to do the same.  Just make sure that you are cool headed and polite and you will prevail over the hot headed antis and their allegations.
  13. I'd rather pass a shot than take a bad one and spend at least the rest of that day searching and feeling bad about being careless.  You did the right thing.  If you can't pass up an opportunity to take a poor shot then you don't need to be hunting.
  14. I pass through fairly often, Asheville is the Southeast hub for the tree hugging, granola eating, hippie, liberal crowd.
  15. As stated I believe we must always remain vigilant, however, I will be breathing a big sigh of relief if and when Feinstein's AWB bill fails.  Hopefully the rush demand for guns and ammo will subside by then.
  16. Wow seems like someone needs a history lesson!
  17. Looking good.  Thanks for all you do to make this site great!
  18. Pretty much always have been into speed. Mostly motorcycles, but I have a couple of Miatas too. I really don't enjoy the cars like I do the bikes but I love outrunning $100k cars in the twisties. Fastest thing I've ever owned is a GSXR1000 which I'm trying to sell now since it makes me irresponsible. 180 Hp and 440 lbs. It will hit 100 before you can blink, and does not even think about slowing down at that point. That bike is nuts. Sometimes it doesn't have to be fast in a straight line to still be lots of fun. Someone please buy this!
  19. I've spent way more time than I've wanted to recently in doctors offices.  It all started when I tried to get some life insurance.  Insurance company came out to the house and took a blood and urine sample.  Then they contact me and tell me that I have high cholesterol along with a couple of other issues.  So I make an appointment with a local doctor.  I hate going to doctors, I probably have not seen a doctor without being in dire pain in 15 years.  So I go to my appointment and there is a gun buster sign on the door.  That was the first thing that angered me.  Then I get into the doctors office and the doctor himself is anything but good role model when it comes to good health.  He's saying things like I need to be in the gym 6 days a week at the minimum, and I need to be running everyday.  I don't appreciate the hypocrisy.  He also will not give me direct answers to my questions.  I wanted my a plan of action to address issues and he kept changing the subject.  I wanted information on foods that I should or should not be eating and again he wouldn't give me direct answers.  But he has sent me for a variety of others tests, each with a co-pay.  I'm tired of it.  I got myself on a workout routine at home, You Tube has some great fitness vids if anyone is interested.  I kind of feel like I should have just turned around when I saw the gun buster sign on the door.  I know I need to eat right and exercise. I don't need to pay someone to tell me that.  BTW young guys, a steady diet of cheese burgers, pizza, and beer will catch up with you eventually.    
  20. Well that put me in a foul mood this morning, the comments more than the article.    On a related note about things that piss me off.  I'm tired of these unemployed people that write their opinion on the internet, call themselves a blogger and and because they have a website they are considered some sort of expert.  In the words of Mad Max from the Johnboy and Billy Show "Sit down, shut up, and quit ruining my life!"   :RANT OFF:
  21. Can't speak as much for state parks but I've done a lot of OC in GSMNP and never had a single issue.  I have spoken with Rangers who have commented that I would be stupid not to be carrying out there.  Even the tree hugger types that may not approve of carrying a gun anywhere else seem to understand why someone would carry one in a remote location such as deep in the park.
  22. Thanks for the info OS, Didn't realize the knife thing and had not heard of the ban during certain events.  I get drug out to Market Square occasionally and always carry and always have my knife clipped into my pocket.  I'll be more discreet for now on.
  23. Since you asked about Bersa.  I love them.  For the money you will be hard pressed to beat it and the quality seems to be pretty good, I've never had a Bersa do anything that it wasn't supposed to.  100% flawless operation, even when it is filthy dirty.  The .45 is a pleasure to shoot but I don't really think that it would give you any advantage over your current set up.  If I'm buying a carry gun I generally like each new one to fill a niche that something in my current collection doesn't.  (Bigger, smaller, easier to conceal, higher capacity, etc.) 
  24. This is a super comfortable holster that might fir the bill, I've worn it all day with a Glock 23 on my skinny frame and it did great.   http://n82tactical.com/n82store/
