I had thought about that then I also thought about N.O. being a liberal city with a history of crooked LEOs. Also I believe there were volunteer cops from different states like California that were confiscating guns. Never heard anything about gun confiscations in the rural areas and in Mississippi, I don't believe the rural folk would have tolerated it so easily as the city folk did.

I'll do that with the barrel band and see how it does, and buy some better ammo. As for the aftermarket mag, I wasn't expecting much from it, just more shooting time between reloads. I checked out Tactical Innovations magazines and they do look superior. I also want another factory mag. I'm going to take it out shooting at a decent range, bench rest and all next week sometime. I noticed there's alot of aftermarket modifications you can do with a 10-22. I definatly need to go to another gun show, it's been a while.

I saw this story as it aired, that was the last time I ever watched CNN. http://www.allsafedefense.com/news/Outdated%20News/CNN_Lies.htm

I haven't seen to many media stories about guns that are close to being accurate. I really haven't seen any. Remember the "manufactured" CNN story about the evil AK-47? I'll try to find a link.

Thanks for the info, I'll check into those sites. As far as a scope nothing real fancy, just a basic Tasco, or maybe I would pay around $100 for one. Maybe later I'll really put the works to it. I will polish the bolt though and check into the parts you suggested. Is it just me or is re-assemby of the bolt a pain in the butt? Probably just need to do it some more.

At Walmart for $182 minus the tax and paperwork fee. I hadn't had a decent .22 rifle in a while and I always wanted a 10-22. I also picked up a 28 round mag and two boxes of Federal ammo for $9 per 500. I had a couple of malfunctions in both the factory and 28rnd mag but that was rapid fire and I thought the cheap ammo might have something to do with it but I'm satisfied and really like it. I bought the carbine. It's very accurate after a slight sight adjustment but I would like to buy a nice small scope. Any recommendations on a scope?

You can drive them to the range in this Yugo underfolder. Seriously, it looks like a fine weapon. I haven't bought any 7.62x39 for a long time but I picked up thousands when you could buy 100 rounds for $10. I guess those days are gone but I haven't been to a gun show in a while.

In this day and age of cell phones, that should be rare. But I would give some one the benifit of a doubt behind my locked door with my Glock on my side. They can either give me a number to call or they can leave.

Was that always in the bill or did they add that recently? If so, the term "Guns in Bars" is a downright lie. Technically, Applebee's is a restaurant that serves alcohol, not a bar or pub. I will check the wording of the bill again, I did last year but didn't check out any new amendments.

Unfortunatly, the media doesn't have to be accurate, most of the niave public will believe it without question so they can invent or rewrite any stories according their personal political agenda. It can even be an article so incredibly stupid as this one.

Well you notice that it is still called "Guns in Bars Bill" to scare the public, so I will bet that it will be killed in Nafieh's hand picked sub-committie. I'm sorry to offend but the public is stupid, a bunch of naive dolts. They don't bother to read what the bill says or think logically about it. They don't realize that law abiding citizens who will carry are not allowed to consume alcohol while carrying. Since bars are for consuming alcohol there will be few if any law abiding permit holders wearing their handguns in bars and if there is, they will be sober and probably a designated driver. Those who will drink and carry are the type who doesn't care if there's a law or not, probably doesn't have a permit but carries anyway so what's the difference? It will mainly affect the restaurant/bar business,(Applebees), and they will be there with friends and family simply to eat. No more dangerous than carrying in Walmart or Kroger. But call it "the Guns in Bars Bill" and the public has an hysterical emotional response.

I actually had to knock on some guys door back in the late 80s at 10:30 in the middle of BF Nowhere, close to Eagleville. I was with a friend when his old Beamer broke down on a gravel road and the closest farm house was 1/2 mile. I thought what he did was cool, I told him we had broke down and I needed to call a friend so without opening the door, he just told me to give him my friends number, my name and he would call him. He did and everything worked out alright but I'm sure he had shotgun in hand just in case.

In the mid 90s when I was hard up for some cash I sold a 6" barrel Stainless Colt Python, great shape. I miss some of the others but the Python really hurts. I kinda miss my Kimber but I trust the reliability of my Glock 21SF I traded it for.

Remember Bredesen wasn't going to sign that bill at first.

Now it would be cool if it was rigged to fire all 10 barrels at once. I probably would be scared to do that though.

I can't watch this too many times, it gives me violent feelings. [ame] [/ame]

I remember that very well, they are capable of attacking and injuring a little old lady. The very definition of Jack Boots.

Hold down the trigger and spin the cylinder real fast.

Yep, and that's sad. But they had still better build alot of jails to house all the gun owners who refuse to turn in their firearms. Or just plan to shoot us.

That's exactly what I'm intending to do, if we got just 20 million of the 80 million gun owners to just say no, and we will shut down business and commerce until you retract that ruling and apologize for crapping on the constitution, I think we could force a change. I think Thomas Jefferson would want us to do that.

Great article. I've always tried to put myself in the shoes, or the mindset of new Americans back in the days that the Constitution was written and try to imagine how they thought. Their opinions and writings seem to be pretty much straight forward and accepted as the norm among the vast majority of new independent Americans. To me, the 2nd. Amendment was intended to express a right that we already had and that's for a man to own and keep his rifle or pistol to defend himself, his family, and his neighbors from indian attacks, criminal hooligans, an attack from an invading army either from another country or some tyrannical unconstitutional army from his own government. As a capable man it was understood that it was a duty to organize with his neighbors as a militia if needed to protect his city, state, or country from any and all criminal or unconstitutional attacks. The idea of a capable man owning personal firearms was accepted not only as an individual right but a duty to his family and country. I believe they envisioned a possible scenario in the future where some in the government might twist and turn and pervert the meaning of their patriotic intentions and attitudes so they wrote the 2nd Amendment and the Bill Of Rights as clear and simple as they could, meaning that every American citizen has an individual right to keep and bear his own personal arms, and also has a right and duty to organize in a militia if needed to protect his family, neighbors, and country. And I believe it's as simple as that.

Very nice collection, very nice. An M1A/SOCOM is on my list in the future. I had better not wait too long the way the political winds are blowing these days though.

I haven't had too many decent guns, I was always impatient and never saved enough for one until I bought my Kimber which was only $600 back in 97. The Smiths and Rugers seemed more popular back then. The only gun I sold that I could really kick myself for was a stainless Colt Python and I got that for a steal, $450. The autos I have owned were unimpressive.

I'm waiting for someone to finally build the phazer rifle, just evaporate you enemies molecules. Until then I want one of them M1A SOCOM deals.
