Well, it broke 70 up north too, gorgeous day even if there are still 3 foot drifts in the yard and the lake has 22" of good ice yet. Decided to finally get out the DD 300Blk AR that I bought the Monday after Sandy Hook (and just before the craze). Delayed gratification to say the least. Sweet r...

Let me qualify this by saying I am pro-law enforcement. Why, some of my best friends are deputies and officers. However, I have to agree with several bloggers and writers about the "invasion" of Boston by tactical law enforcement types. Who were these guys, anyhow? Especially the guy in gr...

Wouldn't be too hard for Hodgdons to relocate IMR from Canada if the executive order came through. I think the Hodgdon boys (I Scouted with them back in the day) would die before they'd let Obammy stop God fearin' American reloaders from getting their powder. I know their dad would roll in his grave...

This happened a year ago, but still a good story......

I don't know about the other powder companies, but this is off of the Hodgdon website about that great company. Note the companies and locations of several of their acquisitions of other powder companies: http://hodgdon.com/history.html Hodgdon Powder Company offices are located at 6231 Robinson in ...

Bye bye Saiga shotguns.......shoulda bought one when I could.

two pounds of H110 @ Scheels in STC for ($21.50 each) this morning (for Blackout AAC) but no H335 (M-1 and AR/AK). In the past 3 weeks, 500 brass 300 Blackout AAC small time private seller off of Blackout discussion board, 1000 .45ACP brass from my old buddy at GIBrass.com, 1,000 147gr .308 from Pat...

Scheels had a bunch of .223 this AM in St. Cloud -- at about a buck per round. No thanks.

Maybe this latest poll is a little more accurate than the "90%" poll.... "The Senate’s defeat of a package of popular proposals aimed at curbing gun violence last week seemed certain to foment public outrage at out-of-touch politicians who don’t listen to their constituents. Not so mu...

"Perhaps helping explain Democrats’ problems, an AP-GfK poll this month showed that 49 percent of Americans support stricter gun laws. That was down from 58 percent who said so in January — a month after the December killings of 20 children and six aides at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school p...

I want this writer to cite one credible source that guns were confiscated from law abiding Boston citizens. If they had a gun confiscated because they were a felon in possession, well good. I also want a citation on police entering households without permission, in direct violation of the 4th amendm...

The operative words from this article are "urgency and intensity" of gun owners -- something we have over the gun control crowd, for now. While I credit the NRA, I also credit the thousands of individuals who contacted their senators over this. You can pretty well bet that Harry Reid is in...

Strong, balanced analysis in the Washington Post: Is the political fight on guns over? Or is it just beginning? An excerpt: What can — and likely will — be different going forward is that groups lobbying for more gun control laws will be far better financed and better organized, posing a genuine opp...

Have you seen this one? From: Michael Bane Date: Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 4:09 PM Subject: OUTDOOR CHANNEL Pulls Productions from Colorado To: Steve King Dear Senator King; I met you yesterday after the so-called "public hearings" on the anti-gun bills; as I mentioned, I am an Executive Produce...

Well, over 40 years of Army and Jarhead veterans who can still field strip an AR and put it back together blindfolded might have something to do with the platform's popularity. We know how to shoot them too.
