I am not sure how I feel about this...
Looking for some help on this old rifle. This belongs to a coworker who knows nothing about it's history. It's been altered, but I can't figure out what it was at birth. The sights have been changed. The barrel length is 20.5", which is potentially correct for some of the carbines made, but has...
The headline sounds innocuous doesn't it? Go read the story, it's a hit piece on gun rights and the NRA. And of course it's on Bloomberg!

If you hear screaming while you read...
Bloomberg.com, is a Bloomberg site so liberalism is a given. So I wasn't surprised to see the editors come out with a whiny piece of "sensible" gun control. I read as much as I could take without puking my breakfast and was about to leave when I decided to read the comments. Talk about getting...
I've been watching this gunbroker auction to see if anyone would bite. No takers so far. $2,180 for an HK P30 V3 in .40. Hurry, only an hour left :rofl:

Remember Wil Wheaton, the kinda creepy little kid in the Star Trek,TNG series? Well he's all grown up now(and still kinda creepy), and he and a whole lot of other libtards want all NRA members to be shot. That's right, shot! Read it for yourself...
Apparently some libtard groups have requested UN monitoring of our upcoming election.
"United Nations-affiliated election monitors from Europe and central Asia will be at polling places around the U.S. looking for voter suppression activities by conservative groups, a concern raised by civil...
I run and cycle, often early and/or in rural locales. I've worn a RoadID for years, just in case. I put name, contact phone, NKA and blood type on it.

Here's my question. Does it help first responders for me to list my blood type? I've been told that emergency and...
I read yesterday that the TSA will start requiring passports at La airports. This, apparently, because Louisiana did not go along with "real ID."
Seems to me that all we have to do is declare each Louisiana airport a polling place and the democrats will make sure no ID of any kind is needed.
While purchasing a new flag today at a Baton Rouge store, I inquired about locations to drop off flags for proper disposal. They informed me they store flags for disposal. Periodically a scoutmaster will retrieve them and see to proper disposal. I proudly fly a flag in my yard and proper...
Jeffry Sanford, candidate for La Supreme Court Justice was working the crowd today at my HOA fall social. He approached the small group I was in, conversing, and introduced himself. He seemed like a nice enough guy, spoke about Jeffersonian principles, etc. I asked him for his opinion on the...
This was in the front section of The Advocate today (Sunday 8/12). They picked it up from the AP feed. The byline is the AP chief medical writer, Marilynn Marchione. She seems to have her own anti-gun agenda right from the start.
Notice how the headline states Doctors in the plural? Then...
Kidding of course, but I haven't seen this scam letter before. Looks like the phish is for the recipient to click on the linked address. That probably loads a virus on your machine. Maybe it's just me, but if I were to try one of these, I would make sure the grammar, spelling and punctuation...
I'm sick of getting email solicitations from them for superfluous bullshite like insurance. And to make matters worse, they're using really tacky methods. My inbox had this message line this morning...
"Confirmation of change to NRA Account"
The email was trying to sell me insurance with...
I've been watching the threads about guns stolen out of trucks and it's pissing me off. If you can't scratch up $30 to buy one of these and use it....
then you don't have the maturity or responsibility to own a gun.
And don't even bother giving me the **** and moan about how I'm mean...
I just found 1,000 rounds of Aguila brass 55gr .223 at AIM Surplus for $299 plus $24 shipping. Considering recent prices, this looked good to me.

Maybe I shouldn't pick on the Academy clerks, but I just can't help it...So I was milling around the gun counter about 11:30 this morning when I hear this exchange...
Clerk in the ammo aisle trying to help a customer, calls out to clerk behind the counter...
You ever hear of 7 point...

JACKSONVILLE, N.C.– Two Camp Lejeune Marines returned home early Sunday morning to find two men in their house. The intruders didn't make it out of the house alive...
Ok guys, help me with lunch plans. I'm relatively new to BR and want a really good roast beef poboy. I've had Rocco's, Pocorello's and The Chimes. Give me some suggestions please. A place with a beer license gets extra points.
