According to the article: "The resident showed quite a bit of restraint. He continued to yell at the suspect to leave the house and said he was armed. The couple even locked themselves in a room to try to avoid a confrontation. They had no way of knowing if the suspect was armed. The resident w...

Shadeslanding said: This is the first I've heard of needing to specify a game animal before a clerk would sell you the ammo. What store was it in? A Wallmart? Or a sporting good store or gun store?

They continue to try to move in the right direction. The laws in IL are oppressive. Hopefully there will be plenty more of these types of moves to ease the restrictions. I was in IL last year and was going to buy some ammo and other sporting goods. They told me that I needed to state a game animal ...

Interesting... love TX He made me anxious as he gave the interview. Poor gun handling? Can't tell if his finger is on the trigger or not. But he waves the gun around way too much. And he fired a shot into the ground. Not a very good idea but in this instance it had the desired effect the homeowner w...

Many are saying that Zimmerman was told not to follow Martin he was never told that and never given a direct order not to. Read this press release from the city manager of Sanford FL. A lot of misinformation here and on the net right now. http://www.sanfordfl.gov/investigation/docs/Zimmerman_Martin_...

Anyone ever try any of the videos from the Gunsite Academy? "Tactics for Self Defense", etc. I've seen them at Fleetfarm and Cabela's. Kinda wondering how they measure up with other offerings out there. They're produced by a company out of Chaska called Stoney-Wolf, so that's pretty cool....
