Re: McCain's file on Romney 2008

Yep. The options are not great, but the choice is obvious. If you have to get on a plane, do you want the pilot who might get lost, or the one determined to crash?

1911 build

Re: Another story. Feel free to share

Re: Input on red dot vs holographic for Personal Carry
