The suspect in the killing of a trooper and the critical wounding of another outside a rural barracks is a survivalist...

Eric Matthew Frein, 31, of Canadensis, Pa., is still armed with the .308-caliber rifle that he used to open fire on the barracks late Friday, State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan said at a news conference where he revealed the suspect's name.

Noonan called Frein "extremely dangerous."

I’d bet he knows all the nooks and crannies, so it’s possible.

When I was that age, I did a bunch of hunting. The best hunting on public game lands was only accessible on foot. I knew trails and shortcuts you would never find on any road map. USGS maps and aerial photos make it a snap to do land nav these days, even more simple with GPS.

He may have done the same sort of hunting.

[ “Not impossible, but extremly improbable. Here’s more on his background”

Well, playing devil’s advocate here, if you were going to frame someone to take the fall isn’t this exactly the type of person and background to use as the patsy? ]

Of course in this News Media environment we make excuses for shooters of the ROPer type, but the moment ONE screwball who is “of our kind” and you will see articles written about the “threat of fundementalist christian tea party conservative domestic terroists”.

It would take a million more Muslim shooters to get the same attention as ONE crazed Dale Gribble type going nuts...

Our media is the problem, they have selective attention...

When I got out of the Marines in ‘72 my dad took me and my DD214 to the local court house and had me register it with the court. I can go there and ask for a certified copy if I ever lose the original. Same with my birth cert.

Plus they’re saying he was a re-enactor with some group that followed an Eastern European extremist group, whatever that means.

Serbian uniform, sporting a Mohawk haircut. Shouldn’t be too difficult to find if he pops out of the woods.

This area is my neck of the woods. Pretty rough country. Lots of un occupied camps and homes all over the place. He could rough it for a while. Once it gets cold and the snow starts to fall, the game will change. Unless he has a game plan, my guess is that he will be found taking a self induced dirt nap.

And this thought excites you because...??? His actual guilt or innocence is not a factor in whether or not you’d drop the hammer on him, given the chance???

Midway and others sold it for a short time, but that was some time ago. I think the latest batch came in in 10 rd plastic bags.

It is good stuff, but I do not like the primers.

I use it for my Mexican Match hunting loads, no need to look for brass while hunting.

Eric Frein is a fan of Che Guevara, the Russian Red Army rifle 13th Guard, and the “Butcher of Bosnia” Radovan Karadzic...
