I did the same thing last spring after a visit to the Mint in Washington and seeing all of the shiny stuff. Gave the kids a few Silver Eagles for their birthdays, and my daughter likes animals so I gave her some 1 oz silver rounds from some African nations that have animals on them. Got all of mine through APMEX . And my wife didn’t complain either

I saw it the other day in the Rifleman and thought it was a little weird...I just didn’t get it. At least it got our attention.

32-20 Blues...a song about the 32-20 compared to the .38 special...never would have thunk such a song existed. I've got several old 32-20's...love'em.

Welcome to TGO . Love your profile photo.

That's why we have limits now.

Cable tv is going the way of the dodo bird. My 2 teenagers watch absolutely NO tv...they're just not interested in it. They watch YouTube channels and streaming video so they need the Internet service but no tv shows.

Boy that really has that vintage used look to it. I like it! Nice.

Went to the fair tonight and it's a real PITA going in. Bags are searched and you have to empty your pockets and be wanded...for an OPEN AIR FAIR! Ridiculous! Of course this makes for long lines. And since everybody has to be searched you can no longer park at the Action Sports (truck & tractor pull, demo derby rodeo, etc) arena were you used to be able to pay for your ticket as you pulled in. You have to park in the more crowded main lot near the zoo entrance and walk back to the AS arena and stand in a long line to be searched if you want to see anything there. There's also a lot more fencing inside the AS arena and cops/security personnel around to make sure that you don't walk on the wrong side of a fence Pure security theater...why do we let our politicians complicate our lives like this?

Wow...that's a real multi-generational shotgun. Great story. Thanks for sharing.

After reviewing the 4473 question i see how the store can get hung up on who's paying for it. Question 11 starts with "Are you the actual transferee/buyer...?", i was thinking it only said "transferee", so i'm not sure how the ATF intends that to be interpreted...they probably don't either.

If he is suggesting that you can fill out the background check for a gun that's going to someone else and that's okay because you're the one paying for it, he is completely backwards on the law (i know about gun bought as a gift but i believe that's a different situation that the Manager was describing.) Its about who's taking possession of the gun, not who is paying for it.

Looks like it. I wonder what happened to the dog.

When transporting a gas grill in your SUV, make sure the gas is off.

Hey Honey, what's that rotten egg smell? i don't know...let me light a match so I can see. -
Yeah, I got that same email. I have not received mine yet so I don't know if they still intend to ship them or not. The tv news was talking about how to test them...something about holding them in front of a car headlight at night and making sure that no light passes through the lens. I may try this if I get them.

Yep. A used 1966-vintage Marlin Model 99 semi-auto .22 rifle and a new Taurus PT92AF 9mm pistol purchased together in 1992.

Chicago buyback gun turns up at scene of police shooting
i1afli replied to Erik88's topic in General Chat
How do they know that the gun was turned in by the judge?...i thought those buybacks were anonymous. Do they record your name and the SNs of the guns that you turn in? Anyway, my bet is that some of those guns get sold out of the back door of the station. -
Looks like things are only going to get worse in Venezuala. Maduro pushed through an election, in which only about 7% of the population voted, that basically allows him to create an autocratic governance (dictatorship)...then he immediately had the opposition candidates arrested. People tried protesting but Maduro-sponsored thugs kept that in check. It only takes one deranged man, a few zealous supporters, and a disarmed citizenry to enslave everyone.

Convicted felon named Fellony charged with numerous felonies.

I once met a guy named Felatio. -
If you've recently seeded your yard then this can attract them and their visits will subside. Otherwise, difficult to keep them away if you're not there.

My Dad graduated from there in 1942, was in the ROTC...earned a marksmanship medal which I now have. I wonder what he was shooting...too late to ask him. Would love to see the photo. Thanks.

This has happened to me a couple of times...item was advertised as having free shipping but at checkout there was absolutely no way to purchase it without paying shipping, no matter which shipping option I selected. I went ahead and bought the items and then sent Amazon customer service an email (or maybe it was chat) and they immediately refunded the shipping both times. Never been disappointed.

I think they sent him back because they didn't want to take care of him but they didn't want him to die on their soil.
