And the moral of the story is, people breaking the law sometimes decide to break the law more. Be prepared.

Glad to see that there are still small-l liberals in the sense of being in favor of fewer restrictions on freedom. It may have largely passed away from public awareness now, but once upon a time from roughly 1965 to 1975 the radical left had a brief love affair with guns. This was the era of the Bla...

My guess? He plead guilty rather than risk a trial for trumped up charges of manslaughter because the prosecutors wanted to make an example of him.

FINALLY BACK after a month's absence! I finally found where I'd buried Tom Tousi's email address.

If the board can't be loaded due to timeouts, there's obviously no way to leave a message on the board about it. Is there any other contact for reporting outages or other performance problems?

Optics planet is a pretty big euro gun import place. I’ve brought a few high end items from them. Not sure about how well they update their website for inventory, but they are a legit operation.
