He wrote several articles and later a book, Unrepentant Sinner, in which he acknowledged numerous fatal encounters as part of his law enforcement responsibilities that made him a pariah among many people and really screwed with his income. He made the mistake of stating that he had killed 27...

The problem with this is, most people who have the experience learned a lesson from Charlie Askins. After his unfortunate mistake, almost everyone else who could have written about their personal experiences negated and mitigated their own experiences.

I'm not interested in a hunting ethics discussion. I liked the challenge of hunting animals that could hunt back and at least had some chance of getting me before I got them. Times are also different in these beta male woke times than they were in the last century. I'm the product of the USA of...

Marlin 45-70 because I'm way faster on follow up shots with a level over a bolt. If I'm not hunting but defending then my choice is a Remington V-3 TAC 13 loaded with Brenneke Black Magic slugs. Both guns are backed by a Ruger Super Blackhawk in .44 magnum My Polar Bear was taken in 1971, was...

Neither he, nor the Board, nor even the Life Members will pick his immediate successor. That will be a Special Master appointed by the NY Courts who makes those selections. That is very worrisome.

This was in reply in another forum and I don't want to writethe whole thing over again: What happened is a long and complicated story that involves the annual meeting in Indy (2019) several years ago. Oliver North was in his first year as President of the NRA and his pay was complicated in...

I always appreciate hearing the other side. This is an old article and is highly inaccurate. I know because I was there and saw and heard what actually transpired. Regarding the "vendor", that is a long and complicated story and they became the sacrificial lamb during the confrontations. (That...

Come on now. I normally respect your posts but this forum went through all of this right after the disaster in Indianapolis. I was one of the people there while Ollie North was being threatened to keep quiet about what he had found and when he refused, he was fired one day before the annual...

One correction: Moonshine - not vodka. Vodka was for grade school.

I've gotten pretty good at google and other search functions but I still can't figure out how to post pictures I took on my phone to forums like this. :( My excuse Is we didn't have phones we could dial - we had to ring for central instead and let them place the calls. The advantage was that...

There are parts on air soft guns and BB guns that must be registered as well. :eek: The truth is they don't really care about public safety - they only care about punishing people that aren't liberals and making it more difficult to resist an authoritarian government.

No. Reported from attendees at the forum

As many of you may know the Illinois State Police have been forced by JACAR to hold three hearings on the new gun control laws. The other day, the ISP representative at the Chicago hearing came to this conclusion: At the second hearing, Bond said that Star Wars light sabers MUST BE REGISTERED...

Some brands were terrible but the Servus Rubber ones that came out of Rock Island, Illinois were as tough as the LL Beans. When Servus changed ownership in 1968, their quality went downhill like skiing on a icy slope.

It is my fault. :oops: I was trying to create an analogy about short barrels and small guns being harder to grab or deflect and introduced the tactical concept so discussed by martial arts/knife folk about short blades being impossible to take away or control. In the process I think some people...

Like you and a couple of others on here, in my youth many, many, years ago I have been stabbed and slashed too many times which is a testament to the stupidity of testosterone and youth. That did not make me an expert but more likely an idiot. I have observed some talented folks in real CQC...
