Call me silly but, if someone was going to break a world changing story, one that might have folks wanting to kill them, why would they announce it a month early? Seems that would give the "bad guys" a whole month to do bad things. And once the story is out killing the messenger wouldn't c...

What I call get to stop is junk mail from Neptune Society. Several times a week. Scares me to think they may go further to drum up business than junk mail.

The kid is probably right. I would do the same, but the darned USMC sniper course put both way out of my league. Actually, these days the youngest is on a reloading spree, so I don't have to do much.

Last time I drove across Texas, from east to west, the I-10 was completed yet. We spent four days crossing the state. Although we did hit most of the high spots in southern Texas on that trip. Had to see the Alamo and of course Rosa's Cantina. But there were so many other places we visited and other...

My wife is Catholic. I was raised Episcopalian (catholic light). We attended the local Catholic services.

Hoping the pendulum will swing back to a more central location is wishful thinking. The church has greater swings than a coo coo clock on steroids. Always has.

Well, you already know my suggestion. But Randall's are worth every penny.

Have a buddy that thinks it's a great yote gun.

We're fortunate to have several varieties of hummingbirds all year long. My neighbor and I both have purple sage and due to the mild weather and marine layer moisture they bloom year round. The hummingbirds go crazy for the blossoms. As to weather, today was spectacular. We've been having a lot of l...

Not being a sufferer of OCD I have never been interested in counting rounds fired. I do know one particular firearm that I had fired once to sight in and part of one 28 round magazine, so probably less that fifty rounds. A bit later I almost threw at the guy in the armory with a few choice words. Th...

Since we no longer have any sort of church service security (the diocese banned groups like ours) we have to decide for ourselves whether violating the "rules" is worth it. And in accordance with the issued policy, none of us ever talks to another about what we might do if...

How dare you state you use different handguns for different situations! And to suggest you pick a firearm on a whim, why that is tantamount to self defense suicide. At least that's what all the "experts" on the internet have told me over the years. I've stated many times I'm fickle. I usua...

I only kill the Mojaves Mohave Green 3 July.jpg Well I wouldn't admit that on a public forum. They are a protected species. I know they are onery and have both hemo and neuro toxins but like all rattle snakes they do a great job at vermin control. If you need advice on capturing and relocating the ...

My grandfather always said the snakes came out after the first thunderstorm of spring. We had that the last week of March. They were out but it hasn't been above 50 since! Snakes don't bother me, I've had a Burmese python, a couple red tail boa's, a couple rainbow boa's and sand boa and a Californi...

Pretty much always out here. Down on the canyon side at the rear of my property you have to keep your eyes open. Most folks near me don't even go onto that part of their property. But I put yote traps there so I check those pretty much daily. I usually just shoo them away.

Used one for a bit. Reliable, and comfortable to use. But the cartridge left much to be desired.

But I would never try to carry her concealed.

Got kids? That changes everything. It's a biological imperative to protect your young.

Yes, truly a masterpiece. But it removes what I call the southpaw's revenge. Colt style single actions are really mad for us, and it's one of the few devices that the right handed world has had to adapt to.

My wife has been carrying since my youngest was a toddler. Long story short a guy tried to grab him out of his stroller. All 4' 11" and 90ish pounds of her went mama bear. He went to jail. One of her early carry methods was a diaper bag. In fact she did that until my oldest risk live and limb b...

Pretty sure it's just part of getting older to one degree or another. Only 72 and I shake a little. But have no "conditions ".

Best "car" shoot I ever witnessed was at Cuddeback range. Sometimes stole a camper and parked in on the range. Monday morning the Phantoms started straffing practice. In short order the new ground target was annihilated. It was about that time the observers realized there weren't any new t...

Here's a question. Why should you need to buy insurance if you have already paid to have something delivered? In accepting your shipment and payment for making that shipment the USPS has entered into a contract to provide not only the delivery but taken custody of the shipped item. Seems the USPS sh...

Please, this is the 21st century. A fanny pack will suffice. Bermuda shorts are optional. Let rephrase that before you get arrested for not having pants....

I'll second the simply rugged and the Hawaiian shirt. But, suggest OWB cross draw. Infinitely more comfortable than any IWB. Reachable with either hand, even when on the ground. And let's face it, it has a certain old school look to it.

A straight stock just feels right. And in the end that's all that matters.

A lot of leftist companies are feeling the backlash. They will say the words but have no intention to change. They remain subversive but in an underhanded way.

Never knew he was a Reverend. That's one thing that's certain. Every day you can learn something new, if you want to. I can't imagine a day without something new to look forward to.

So Nath. A question for you. I know they have pretty much done away with horseback fox hunts. Are foxes becoming a larger problem for sheep herders? Locally we pretty much eliminated coyotes. Then they outlawed poisoning and many types of effective traps. The results is a coyote return and all the p...

The saddest thing about all these educated supreme court justices is they either can't read or have extremely poor reading comprehension skills. But the same can be said for most politicians. And yes, the justices are politicians. These folks can't read a single simple to understand sentence and get...

I've tried both Skinner and XS on different platforms. This is solely personal preference, but I like XS. If you look closely, you'll see that my sight is mounted backwards. Why? Because I found that it works best for my eyes. As the old saying goes "different strokes for different folks"....

Prayers and condolences. Sometimes the bonds we form while serving last a lifetime. And there always seem to be those that hit us harder.

For me it was "Doc". RHIP 9-11-01, North Tower. I know he would have been trying to help others until his last breath.

I've been where you are. Prayer up.

You sir are extremely lucky. The old saying "he who hesitates is lost" came about for a reason. That this beauty wasn't snapped up while you hesitated is pure serendipity.

A solution in search of a problem created by politicians for the sole purpose of creating other problems to justify their existence. For the grammar police, yes that was intentional.

jeepnik

Define recent years. The USPS has been going downhill since the 90's. Attempts to automate, centralize and eliminate personnel have all taken their toll. Add to this the lowering of hiring standards and, let's face it, a greater criminality in the workforce have also played a major role.

jeepnik

Well we could bring back the WPA and it's slogan could be "A chicken coop in every backyard". The feds could build the coops and then supply a few hens and a rooster. Add in a years worth of chicken feed and all would be right with the world.

When I first read parts of the Bible as a child I was fascinated by the stories. I've always loved history and let's face it, the Bible stories are history stories. The language was a bit tough at first but one learns. Later I learned that every story was a lesson. Lessons on literally every facet o...

Well, it's not from the NRA. Someone making folks think it's official. Whatever their agenda is they are obviously trying to hide their true identity.

The map of foreign military bases in the US left out the German Air Force Tactical Training Center at Alamagordo. It could be they are no longer there. I believe they started in the 1990's. It was still there the last time a drove through a few year ago. Foreign pilot training on the then hottest t...
