Thanks for posting this, honey. You rock!!!
You make a good point with “Take your license out for a spin, leave the gun at home.” Not that I necessarily believe you need a license for a right, you do need to realize the responsibility you are about to exercise.
I only have a Ruger .367 and Remington .22 with a good stock of ammo. I would like to add a Glock 9MM, but wonder if it is too late to buy ammo for it.
congrats! know the laws of your area/state and federal well, one slip up can land ya in the big house for while.
Remington 1100 check
Winchester 243 (bolt) check
357 Revolver check
Compound bow Check.
Bring it on beyotches. My dog will let me know your there well in advance.
People are picking up ammo with their regular shopping now. My Walmart is basically out of ammo too, but the big-5 across the street had plenty.
Nice, but, why do you have to sell the AR?
Yep, you nailed it, get past the euphoria of carrying before you do.
Agree with the ‘no need’, but it is what it is.
very well said.
We aren't the people who have spent the last thirty years standing on street corners shouting at nobody. We're calm, rational, reasonable people, and we're starting to consider civilization collapse in the same way we've discussed market downturns and foreign affairs in the past. In my mind, it's past "crazy" and "theoretically it could happen" to "it's possible." In some cities, I think it's past "it's possible" to "how soon?"
BAM! I got me a Liberal.
No. That would be mean. (pumps 12 gauge.)
The Mini-14 is my choice for a good, rugged 5.56 rifle that’s suitable for just about anyone.
I am kind of a low maintenance type of gal. I am 61 with small hands. Have never even been to a gun class but am thinking seriously into considering arming myself
What would you suggest for me?
ALSO....
“Often, someone will put a gun away in a case, or in a safe, only to take it out a few months later to find rust, and pitting. This is caused directly by leaving finger prints on the gun! Wipe every gun down, so that you are not surprised to find your gun’s finish marred.”
Are there stainless steel guns (ones that are stainless inside as well) that can be easily cleaned and not prone to pit and rust?
Oh, that's a given. I'm a voracious researcher and have spent alot of time studying what I need to do. :-)
Also, cost is not an issue to get a stainless piece.
It’s kind of a shame every American doesn’t know this already. Other than his put-down of the 1911 .45ACP, I agree with the author.

.223 and a 7.62?

That's the beautiful thing about the Ruger 10/22, they don't often need parts. I've had one since 1989 and the thing is like the Energizer Bunny. Add my HotLips banana clip, and it carries 50 rounds. They even make speed loaders for the banana clips, try that with the Marlin and the barrel tube.
