Fiddler, I had long been searching for the same information. Here are some links I saved: http://shootersforum.com/showthread.htm?t=20946 http://www.huntingtalk.info/hunting-archive/browning-blr-trigger-job-willing-gunsmith-t1632.html http://www.shootingworld.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=1546&sid=450...

Obviously not scientific in any way, but I often get calls for untimely/suspicious deaths in our county. I have gotten plenty of suicide calls, but none that I can remember were from guns. And that from NH where our gun laws can only be described as liberal (or is that conservative). Notwithstanding...

One thing I can definitely say is that there is a reason that Unit M (Southeastern NH) issues an extra 6000 or so anterless-only tags. Northern NH and Northern ME are really pushing the limits for the range of Whitetails. So, there are generally more deer down south. (There are also more tags simply...

Sorry if this was posted elsewhere, I only checked the first couple pages or so. Just to perhaps create a little anticipation, the Supreme Court released 3 opinions today, leaving 7 cases from the past year yet to be decided. There are likely to be two more days releasing opinions. The first is Wedn...

Good to hear. Now, given that I'm sure you told your wife that she looked great (the proper answer to nearly any question posed by the wife

), what's your new gun?

It has nothing to do with biology or genetics. It is a legal artifact. In the beginning who had 1/16 or more non-white blood was considered colored, black, Indian, etc. It was so declared in the US. Census and Congressional apportioning. I get this point, but I think it has nothing to do with the a...

To some people it doesn't matter what he "is" because he can't win their respect no matter how he acts. I'd be willing to bet that many blacks have lacked respect for him over the years because he "acts" white. (A relatively common complaint in the black community if I'm not mist...

My next "gun" will probably be a bow. (Is that heresy?) My wife has almost no interest in shooting (she plinks sometimes with the .22), but she did actually say she thought she would enjoy archery. Maybe I can pick up a nice (cheap) recurve to learn and/or for her, though as a techie guy I...

Thanks for that perspective, Tutt. The difficulty for many people on the "enforcement" side of things is that almost all we see are the bad things. If your file is on my desk, it is generally because you have done something really bad. That skews my perspective because it makes me feel lik...

AND BY THE WAY KISMET, DO WE NOT HAVE PEOPLE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY OUR 2ND AMENDMENT? We do. I simply disagree that this kind of action by CPS is a proper comparison. Nearly every time someone posts about a misuse of power, someone else jumps and says, "the same thing can happen to gun owners.&q...

The previous three posts are all good thoughts - only you can decide how to approach the case.

I agree it is very interesting food for thought.

In many ways it is unfortunate that the two sections are not related. Glenn's speech (not impromptu) came from 1974, though the words are just as meaningful today.

Michael, this is an assumption on my part, but I believe what most are trying to say is, innocent until proven guilty. Not the other way around.

Exactly! Which is why we have an executive, legislative and judicial branches - all of which are answerable to the voters to one degree or another. Checks and balances. Not perfect, just lightyears better than anything that came before it... But one of the things our legislative branch has done is ...

I have two questions. (1) Isn't it just natural for most large predators to have very low populations compared to most "game" animals? Large predators require large hunting areas, so they have never been as numerous as herd herbivores. (2) Isn't extinction a natural process too? Millions ...

It appears that the current system is working. +1 And that is what should happen.

Can a judge reverse a juries decision? That does not sound right, hate to think that one person has that kind of power. I don't know, just remember reading that. Don't even know which court.

Perhaps this is a matter of semantics. When people say that the MSM is leftist, I assume they mean that the news they report is biased. That is, the decisions made on which news to cover are essentially to advance an agenda. For example, CNN might have a factual story about something good happening ...

The problem one has is in being able to define the center point across time.
