Back in the days when you could kill a duck for under $25 per box. LOL Steel shot what a crock!!

President Trump should play Simple Man at his rally's. Makes perfect sense what Charlie said. Crooked politicians and crime in the street. You know what's wrong in the world today people done put their Bibles away. And living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land. Well put Charlie, well put. And as AuEagle stated, he is playing in the heavenly band today, evidently the Lord needed a good fiddle player!!

Dennis I think you wrote what a lot of people are thinking and discussing in their close circles. I certainly don't wish this to happen, but I am afraid there will be some violent conflicts soon if these "peaceful protesters" that are looting, burning, attacking cops and civilians and closing down interstates aren't arrested and put into the pokey for quite awhile. And if things aren't crazy enough, the black guy driving the Jaguar in Seattle on I-5 was arrested for hitting the little idiots blocking an Interstate highway. I am sorry that 1 was killed and 1 serious injuries, but if you stand in the interstate, there is a good probability you may encounter a vehicle that may not see you in time to avoid hitting you. Enough is enough and what is really crazy is the people in Britain, France, Australia and others are protesting. I'm sorry, but they ain't got a dog in this hunt. Best advice for all is to keep praying for this nation, because we can't do it alone!!

R.I.P. Charlie. He was a great American for sure. Very patriotic. Prayers for his family.

All the happy little trees.

Sorry for your loss HP. Prayers lifted for your family.

To anyone that hasn't dealt with the public. You haven't a clue as to what you are missing. A bunch of really good customers that you enjoy dealing with and a few soreheads that you couldn't please them if you gave them a million dollars. But the good customers outweigh the bad ones!!

Happy 4th to everyone!! I have been doing a little digging on some trivia concerning the Declaration Of Independence and found this from the History channel. I hope everyone realizes these signers were putting their lives and wealth on the line. It wasn't a mere formality, they were telling King George III to go take a hike. Enjoy your holiday with your friends and family!! https://www.history.com/news/9-things-you-may-not-know-about-the-declaration-of-independence

Buying it cheap and stacking it deep!!!
Dirtshooter replied to owejia's topic in Ammunition and Reloading
Hence the reason I started reloading 30+ years ago, I always said a #2 iron was a better weapon than a gun without a live round to fire. The only commercial ammo I have purchased in 10 years or so is .22lr. -
Congrats, we will have 50 on March 27 next year. I am still trying to figure out why she said yes??

It must be nice to decide at your job, " I don't want to do that part"!! What use are they if they don't hear the cases?? Absolutely nothing but a liability, costing money and getting nothing in return!!

Why aiming for center mass is important
Dirtshooter replied to ironsniper1's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
That my friends is why we all need to train, train, train. It is okay to practice a few head shots, but they are only needed in certain situations where body armor on a bad guy dictates. My CC instructor back in Mississippi who was a deputy at the time said it best, stop the threat. If he was worth 1 round he danged sure is worth 2. In a real life situation it is all over with in less than 20-30 seconds unless there are a lot of bad guys. And that is the reason to carry a spare mag and a spare gun. -
We called them knuckle busters too. I was watching a youtube video on boating the other day and saw a center console Coast guard boat and it had a spinner on it. Don't know if I ever saw one on a boat. Did you notice the cash register .05 and dime. Stuff sure was cheaper back then, I recall around '63 I could walk into the Western auto store and get a box of .22 shorts for $0.39. And the kicker was nobody thought that odd at all!!! Those of us that grew up in the 50's and 60's have a lot to be thankful for!!

Googled it up, yes the American Pokeweed does grow there. Most of the U.S. has it.

Sounds like my poor brother-in-law. 1st time they came in with their brand new camper, his wife directed him right into a telephone pole. To say he wasn't a happy camper was a huge understatement.

52, shoot I can barely remember 52, but it was better than almost 68. I am still trying to figure out how my daughter got to be 49 this February. Forrest Gump had it right, life is like a box of chocolates that somebody has already eaten the good ones!!

I assume that most of those WWII vets want to forget the horror that they endured. They never heard of PTSD. I have never been around many of these vets that talk about their time in. Even Vietnam vets rarely talk. I am blessed to go to church with 1 WWII vet who is one of our former pastors he is 94, plus we have 2 Korean vets that attend our church 1 of which is one of our deacons.

Yea it never changes Greg, same view day in and day out!! LOL

Thanks David, you beat me to it this morning. Yes the whole free world owes a huge debt of gratitude and respect for this brave group of men & women. A few years back our secretary's dad was a tank driver on Omaha beach June 7, 1944 and he could never watch a war movie. He said as a 17 or 18 year old he could never put it out of his mind the fact that they were driving over dead American corpses that they didn't or couldn't move out of the way. My wife's Uncle will be 95 in October and served in the Navy in the Pacific. I was wondering if all those that fought for our freedom's are cringing at what has happened to our nation this past week. Thanks to all the vets that have served and are now serving! May God bless you all!!

And that according to the BATF is a firearm, not a shotgun. No I don't even try to understand them.

HELP! What did I do wrong?
Dirtshooter replied to MKALDRICH's topic in Gunsmithing & Troubleshooting
Or live in the woods and shoot in your yard!! Killed a large carpenter bee yesterday with my .357 rice loads!! -
That would be the people that are tired of all the drive by shootings and other cesspool activities. That is why when you go into the country you see signs that say I don't call 911, I am 911!! Hence the reason, not many days go by that I don't hear gunshots or make gunshots. Already this morning I heard 4 or 5 and it wasn't a drive by shooting either.

Thanks to all the families that gave their young men and women to keep this world safer. To all those that have fallen, we have not forgotten you. Thanks to all the active men and women that stand in the gap to keep us all safe, may God bless you all!!

I guess I have spoiled my family, they don't have to reload, I do it for them. I have tried several times to get my adult son into it, but as of yet he hasn't.

Back in Mississippi my enhanced carry instructor who was a LEO said about 75-80% of gunshot victims survive and about 25-30% of knife victims survive. Most of knife victims will bleed out before the ambulance gets to the scene. Just like I have said many times, a gun is no more a weapon than a knife, a 2 iron, 4,000 lb. vehicle etc. But it is always the evil gun that gets the bad rap.
