Dang . Trying to remember the last one . Do events , meet ups , gatherings, or hanging out count ? With the dive honky tonk reopening , will be jam sessions every Saturday night . ( In addition to the mid day one I can make about half the time ). Do those count ?

Interesting. Highpoints gleaned from Naval History and Heritage Command , and Naval Heritage Foundation give a more neutral and nuanced take . The most Pro Russian conclusion was " Russia was the only major European Power that wasn't openly Anti Northern " . All European powers...

7 day cooling off period to get gasoline.

If referring to WWl .... . It's complex . Yes , for the bulk of the war , Imperial Russia was part of the Allied Forces . BUT after the internal communist led domestic upheavals , Russia's unilateral peace with Germany, De Facto gave a major boost to the Axis, and intensified the...

Between your comment and BassBob's : It makes a big difference in the potential ramifications of " Undocumented Self Protection Abilities " . For some jurisdictions, at certain time periods , the potential sanctions were trivial. One that stuck in my mind was a $25 Citation, no jail...

Maybe I'm having a brain fart . Remind me of the aid / support / assistance from Imperial Russia pre 1776 ? Or pre 1781 ? depending how you figure For that matter any continuity of any such hypothetical relations pre 1917 , and any of the post 1920 Russian Regimes ?

Old school cliche : You don't ever * need * anything other than. 22LR , .38/ .357 , .30-06 , and 12ga . And that would be 98% true statement. The new wave equivalent would be : .22LR , 9x19, .223 (5.56) , and .308 . More like 88% true , only because I still value shotguns .

I greatly feel that way . But there are rational reasons. Just as there has been over the decades / centuries. And probably half of what we think of as Tried & True , were themselves an upstart substitute for the previous generation . Grendel and Creedmoor exist, because the respective AR...

Nah . A good hit with tight pattern of Buckshot , is about as good a Felon Disuiader as anything can get. If you missed some of the shots , or additional BG Reenforcements just arrived , the Handgun will have greater continuity of continued fire . Even if the ( whatever term implies...

Oversimplified, and 5% cynical - How to " Run " a shotgun in realife. If threats are remaining after 5 or 6 rounds of Buckshot , drop the empty shotgun , and pull your pistol.

Gotcha

Under pressure ( of particular sorts ) will give 50% to 100% increase in shot spread . Yes , * social purposes * doesn't require one hole groups. But as noted above , if they can't do reasonable decent accuracy with no stress at medium speed , they're not going to magically tighten up when...

Back in the day , my first 1911 was from the early days of A1 . ( Wasn't a collectable then , just an old gun , plus had aftermarket Nickel .) With Arched & Short . And it was " kinda OK " , but couldn't really see what all the fuss was . Then I spent time shooting and carrying the FIL's...
