It’s the very rational fear of politicians everywhere that some disgruntled radical from the vast, sweaty masses is gonna pop a cap on them with some pop gun. Arch Duke Ferdinand, James Garfield, Ronald Reagan, James Brady, Robert Kennedy, some Russian diplomat in Turkey, so forth and so on.Originally Posted by Malamute

"Concealable" also used to be one of the evil buzzwords of the general anti-gun crusaders of the past, before concealed carry was much of a thing for average people. I guess the implication was only criminals needed a small concealable gun. they seem like theyre getting wound up for another crusade, some of the news buizz has captions of "if so and so gets elected, its going to be mandatory buy back of assault guns, all of them" and so on and so forth. Not trying to be an alarmist, just noting the tone and that it hasnt been at quite this public level of vociferousness in a while. They are trying to capitalize on the recent incidents, and see the faltering in the conservative ranks regarding SOME sort of change about guns and trying to make the most possible motion on it, or so it seems. Time will tell. My comment about not being surprised if we end up with size restrictions isnt necessarily in the immediate time frame, but within my lifetime, I wouldnt be surprised.

“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.”

SeriousStudent was over recently partaking in cigars and whiskey and I admitted I was a little disgusted with myself at the end of the double action revolver inventory I did. Bill was very nice and said “that’s not an unreasonable amount.....for a good sized municipal police department.”

There's nothing civil about this war.
FWIW, I took the 10-8 to the range today. Posted about it here.

If we have to march off into the next world, let us walk there on the bodies of our enemies.
Hmmm... I was thinking more along the lines of "thinko thentavos"...but Inigo Montoya is always good.

You can always sell guns, but you can't always afford to buy more.
