  1. I do believe it's an advantage to be white in this country. It probably isn't in Namibia or Thailand, but it is here. In any country where there's a dominant majority of any sort (ethnic, religious, political, whatever) there is discrimination against minorities. Being a member of the majority group helps avoid that discrimination and is thus advantageous.
  2. Just one more.... https://archive.org/details/JOHNNY_WINTER_Mean_Town_Blues_1969_Woodstock Cheers, Whisper
  3. It's always a good day for listening to Johnny Winter. Here's a great example. From about 1:20 onward, I doubt there's anyone else who could every play this.
  4. They claim to hold a top BBB rating but the BBB website says: We’re sorry, we found no results for for "onlinegunsshop.com" in"Lafayette, LA" Caveat emptor, Whisper
  5. Gerber does indeed make an unserrated version of this -- in fact, I'm pretty sure the original Mark II was unserrated -- but over the years there have been far more of the serrated versions produced. Look on eBay and the knife auction sites and you can still find unserrated ones.
  6. You have chosen well and you will love it. This is the finest small 9mm available, I believe. Hope one comes your way soon.
  7. Over the years there have been many small projects for which I've thought, "I wish I had a drill press for that." And there are some projects over the years that I've done with a hand electric drill or a Dremel that I should have done with a drill press. Now, as I am thinking seriously about getting a stamp and making my own suppressor from a kit, I've decided it's also time to get a tabletop drill press, not just for gun projects but for general use. I see there are tons of them around, but I have no idea of the relative quality. Any recommendations? I don't want to spend a fortune but I don't want a piece of junk. Thanks, Whisper
  8. Note especially the durability section and which red dots they report with "no failures."
  9. Keep watching GB. Like Grayfox54 said, they have parts for the plastic SIGs come up. I've bought interesting things a couple of times. They're not on there constantly, but keep checking.
  10. I agree that a handgun is best because it can be carried at all times, but for most people needing a long arm for defensive purposes, I think a shotgun is best. While I understand the attractiveness of recommending a battle rifle like the AR-10, it requires a reasonable amount of training to use an AR-10 effectively at close quarters, and when you start talking about shooting people at ranges of many hundreds of yards, you're no longer talking about self defense.
  11. Maybe. Depends on how the election turns out.
  12. +1 on The Safe House. They also sell used safes and occasionally have scratch-and-dent sales. I'm a satisfied customer and would buy from them again.
  13. Welcome. I was a member of the DPRC in the 1980s, back when they had the old range inside the city limits. I moved when the current range was under construction.
  14. Well, I'm sure the GOP believes it will encourage more poor people to vote, but I'm not convinced that's the case, and I've not seen any studies that support the theory. As mentioned earlier, voting by mail may increase turnout among the elderly, and the older the voter, the more likely it's a GOP vote.
  15. Let me get this straight --you're talking about selling ammo after you've already bought it? How would that even work?
  16. Nutjobs on both the left and the right are warning that the evil "other side" won't accept the results of the election and suggesting that perhaps one should buy ammo. Meanwhile, as Ronald_55 just noted, anyone who was paying attention has been laying up supplies for years....
  17. I think the full-auto versions have a pull start, don't they?
  18. I'm really thinking about a Bane mask (the Batman villain) to wear to the office. Too bad the cheapest decent-looking ones are $40. Cheers, Whisper
  19. They have the right to ask for what they want inside their business. Kind of like "No shoes, no shirt, no service." You also have the right to shop wherever you want and to deny your patronage to businesses that treat customers without respect. I enjoy that right and exercise it often. Cheers, Whisper
  20. I think he means .32 H&R. I have a Single Six in that caliber and it's a great gun. Cheers, Whisper
  21. I'm in West Nashville. $30 is what I was paying in Murfreesboro. If I could match that in Nashville, I'd be a happy guy.
  22. Having recently relocated to Nashville from Rutherford County, I need to find a local dealer who will handle my firearms purchases from out of state. So far the stores I've checked here charge ridiculous fees. Is there maybe a small dealer somewhere who charges something reasonable? It looks like I'm about to win a couple of Gunbroker auctions and I need to get the transfer set up. Thanks, Whisper
  23. As regards eyesight, this statement not only contradicts my own experience with dogs in the woods, but Linkoping University in Sweden has demonstrated that a human's visual acuity is about three times that of a dog's. Of course vision is a human's primary sense, whereas a dog's primary sense is smell.
  24. Read the article. It doesn't say what the headline claims it says. The FBI didn't "release a pro-2nd Amendment statement." It released a report on active shooter cases in 2016 and 2017. And it did so in 2018. Cheers, Whisper
  25. If this is true it will soon be validated on additional news outlets. The fact that Trump isn't announcing it himself suggests this report may not be accurate.
