Re: The ideal 'if only one gun' carbine...
Sorry to not pick one of the many lever guns I use but if I am restricted to one this is my pick (this one is mine). It takes a common round and with the locked bolt pushes it enough to make it very effective on deer sized game out too 100 yards (I have taken 7 whitetails with it suppressed). For h...

Re: Is this for real

Re: Is this for real
Anybody else remember the pic of her sitting on a NVA anti aircraft gun?
To this day she has not shown remorse for her actions.
Not even close to being a great woman - but the term "traitor" comes to mind.
