    I'm here, so I'd say guns.................
  1. Good grief.........I haven't visited here for months. Then when I do I get hooked into this abyss. At the end of it I know three things: 1) I'll never get this time back; 2) I think I want the B.A.S.T.A.R.D. and will sell my hoard of Norinco 223 AK and Gallil Orlite magazines; 3) I will never look at a logo/photo of a Spartan helm in quite the same light again....
  2. Camp carbine is iffy quality. Ruger is good but heavy and uses Ruger mags only. Kind of hard to find, but I wonder why. If you can find one, and have a beretta or glock, try a KelTec SUB2000 in 9mm. Ugly, but it gorws on ya. Also works very well in my experience. I turned my nose up at these for years until recently and after trying one I am looking for another. As I have a truck load of Glock mags, this was a no-brainer for me.
  3. Just food for thought: Keep in mind with the stripped receivers that in the last ban, and the future proposed ban, only receivers made into "AW" configuration prior to the ban, ie , a total weapon, were grandfathered. Any "spare parts" receiver made into a rifle after the date of inception was not legal if it was made into an AW configured rifle. To be totally "legal" (at least under the last set of protocals) you want receivers that came off of documented complete rifles. Additionally, we don't really know what kind of semi-auto rifle will be left on the table as "legal" after any future ver
  4. I'd have known before I retired, but I was a gun guy. Most won't. That is why they ask you. 922r is a nonsequator when it comes to enforcement. Unless you light up some agency radar you re not likely to ever be asked. Not something that most of us will ever experience. A very tough task it is to enforce some of these far-reaching regs. I've actually had a young, new, state cop ask me, "Wow! How do you know all this stuff?" when it comes to compliance. It's not on their plate at the academy...........and for the most part they couldn't care less. It's all "feel good" legislation for the benefi
  5. Greed is the #1 reason for this happening. People believe in the "nothing for something" fairy tail because they are "special" and "deserving". That is why it works so well. #2 reason is polite upbringing. Many people, especialy the elderly, are too polite to tell these dirt balls to FXXX-Off. They let them talk and eventually get hooked on the line. Once there is money paid the tendecy is to follow bad money with good as nobody wants to admit to being the patsy and admit they threw good money away. There is a science behind this............sociology and human behavior. It is strictly a formul
  6. Yeah, I hear ya. I just submited a blood sample for DNA testing to document American Indian blood lines for future expected programs........never was an issue until now. NOW being white may be a liability...............Ha! Don't laugh you white hinky, er, honky white man...............hey, I'm new at this. Did I mention I was American Indian?
  7. Well, I've lived in Alaska since 1977, and if that is you in your avatar photo I have a place for you to bunk......................Oh, LORD!
  8. I've bought from him twice with no problems, but from the sounds of it I am lucky to have gotten what I ordered. Too many people to do business with to suffer rudeness............When it comes to a rude person, Once is a bad day. Twice is a bad attitude. Thank you for the heads up.
  9. I doubt you will find much of anything on Snopes. The site is owned/run by a left wing Lib who tends to downplay anything of a negative nature concerning dems.
  10. I edited my post after finding many, many pages of "pending" legislation. The link I posted in its place has been the best for "current" info on the subject. I don't think the Ban Bills that have actual lists of guns or "evil features" is nearly as concerning as the language I've seen that puts the interprtation of "sporting", "appropriate", etc.........in the hands of any one person. Such open-ended language is potentially a lit fuse.
  11. What I have found, H.R.6257 Assault Weapons Ban Reauthorization Act of 2008 (Introduced in House), lists the Ruger 10-22 as exempted from this ban UNLESS it has a folding stock. I think what has happened is people have seen bills, this one included, that contain a category for, "semi-auto rifle with detachable magazine", and jumped to conclusions. The longer lists of guns in past bills has been the exempted list, from what I can tell. The below link will take you to a search engine for the Library of Congress. You can find just about any combination of bills you want with a simple search.
