  1. Bill, you and I both know you are not a typical mainstream liberal. I met a married couple last night at a Christmas party. They have been married for 20+ years, and the husband was talking to me about his interest in getting a firearm again, and resuming hunting and target shooting. His wife overheard us and said "If I had known you were going to own firearms again, I would have never dated you" She is a nice enough lady, but she does work in the public school system, and had stated that "I am from Chicago, and we all know that the only people with guns are criminals" I asked her what about me? She said" Oh, well you were in the military so you have been indoctrinated that way" The husband wanted a S&W 5906 and I persuaded him to buy a better pistol, a factory refurbished Sig P-226, and six mags. Maybe later on we can get him a surefire light.
  2. Whut is a hypot en noose??? When are they in season? What rifle is best for killing one?
  3. It should have been a Stryker Infantry Fighting Vehicle. Zombie parts all over the undercarriage.
  4. Very cool, but don't tell Kallend, otherwise he will judge you to be the causation of crime.
  5. Ok, but I was thinking I would like a 747, I may not have enough money to maintain it, but damn it I am going to fly it!!! Maybe over your town... The plane will cause more harm than my rifles have, even if I don't crater in at your house.
  6. The barrel has about 2,000 rounds through it. It's chrome-lined, so that's not a lot to be concerned about yet. It took me about 8,000 rounds to wear out a chrome-lined AR15 barrel. I know the guys without the chrome lining think nothing of throwing barrels away every few thousand rounds.Quote The chrome lined bbls are pretty good for wear, but if you want to be as accurate as you can be, you will need to move to a stainless bbl, and one that is properly lapped and crowned. Chrome lined bbls do not get lapped prior to chrome lning. The resulting accuracy of the bbls is set for good once the chrome goes on. I have lapped chrome bbls for myself, and lemme tell you, it is not easy. So look at bedding the receiver, getting a Krieger of Satern bbl, and see what happens. Hey why not pick up a box of 20 or 50 bullets in 155grain Scenars and see what it does? you will be able to shoot them a bit faster due to lighter bullets, with the same base area to push upon. Here is what was written by someone else about it. This guy has been competing for years. "2950fps from a 24-26" barrel @ 1000 ' fps=1401.0 super sonic to 1300' @ 1127.0 FPS So its safe to say at most environmental conditions it will easily stay supersonic to past 1000' or meters your choice on this one. What's also nice is because of its weight to length ratio, it doesn't need a super fast twist to stabilize it. It may not buck the wind as good as some of the heavier ones but the Palma shooters can't all be wrong can they? The 175s were more a product of the 168's not reaching 1000 good to only 600-700(this was in sierras line more specifically) than the 155. The 175's and more so the 190's do buck the wind more and do deliver more payload to the target as far as sniping goes. They, snipers, are the ones that really use and need the 175/6 gr bullets. The 155 Lapua Secnar Silvers shoot much flatter than the rest to 1000' They also have the longest point blank range PBR of 300-305'. The others all had PBRs in the 270-80 range. The best against the wind was no surprise the 190 but only by 6" @ 1000' certainly not enough to make giving up all the other benefits of the 155 Lapua. They are longer than the 175 MK, and as long as the 190, but are only 155grains. The only real reason to go to the 175-190 is for live targets that need the extra payload. "
  7. Some guys are winning using the Scenars. Is the receiver bedded?
  8. build yourself a powerful multi-band jammer, and watch the cops have fun! Hey maybe you can get a ECM pod from DRMO!!!
  9. Is the receiver bedded, and the bbl free floated?
  10. Hey I don't believe we should, but in the antigun rantings of some posters, they seek to remove a right that is enumerated in the Bill of Rights. However, if there were to be a ban of private aircraft usage, someone might get his panties in a wad over it. The enviornment is being polluted by wealthy people taking joy rides in a privately owned plane, why should this be allowed? There are laws against automobiles polluting, laws against not carpooling in certain lanes on the roads, so why not outlaw private aircraft? Ban the planes, it's for the sake of the planet we leave our children. Why should the priveledged few, dictate that we should not be allowed to have certain firearms, or any at all? they fly themsleves around, over our homes, polluting, and being an accident waiting to happen? They have no right to fly, it is not in the Constitution, so BAN THEM. Lets see how this dscussion turns out.
  11. Laws have never prevented any type of crime, they will continue to be committed regardless of how many laws are in place. If free speech were outlawed, I highly doubt you would shut the fuck up.
  12. Good to hear you are ok, what the hell happened? Someone take a left in front of you?
  13. So would you be in favor of controlling the sale of gasoline in order to stop arsonists, and people who drive drunk? How about actually punishing the criminal, and not giving sentences out that mean nothing more than having a person gain "street rep" How about the rest of the citizens having the right to carry, and actually kill a violent offender? The recitivism rate on dead offenders is ZERO.
  14. Here are Illinoistans season dates this year. DEER & TURKEY During the Archery Deer Season bow hunting hours for coyote, striped skunk, raccoon, opossum, red fox and gray fox will be 1/2 hour before sunrise to 1/2 hour after sunset. Hunters with unfilled firearm deer permits may take coyotes during firearm deer season by shotgun with slugs, muzzleloader or handgun from 1/2 hour before sunrise to sunset. No hunter, regardless of the quantity or type of permits in his/her possession, may harvest more than 2 antlered deer during a year, including the archery, muzzleloader, and firearm seasons. For the purpose of this bag limit, deer seasons are considered to be in the same year if their opening dates are within the same 12-month period that begins July 1. Antlered Deer bag limit does not apply to this season. Firearm Deer (Handgun, Muzzleloader, & Shotgun)Nov. 16-18; Nov. 29 - Dec. 2, 2007 Deer (Muzzleloading rifles only)Dec. 7-9, 2007 (also allowed Nov. 29 - Dec. 2) Special CWD Deer Season Jan. 18-20, 2008 Late-Winter Antlerless Deer (Handgun, Muzzleloader, & Shotgun)Jan. 18-20, 2008 Deer (Archery in counties with a firearm season and west of Rt. 47 in Kane Co.)

  15. Hunters just shooting the first deer they see, because it may be the only deer they see, in a short hunting season, is one of the causes.
  16. I had some questions, forgive me. I was unaware that there was some rule in SC that says I have to opine on every last post.
  17. It only would have any relavance if those rates were for gun crime only. Can you show that those same rates apply when using that standard? composite murder rates are not indicative of causation. Are there other contributing factors in those rates? Such as poverty, and drug related crimes, in conjunction with the murders?
  18. Kallend just thinks stating something, and repeating it, will make it true, if done enough times.
  19. I am positive at one time in your life that you broke a law, have you been charged and convicted yet? If not why are you still able to purchase a firearm?
  20. They are criminals who lie and cheat the system, and have not been caught yet. Gonna come up with a future crime stopping machine?
  21. There is nothing law abiding about a criminal who intentionall buys a gun, with valid ID etc. and transfers that weapon to a felon. That is called a straw purchase, and is a FELONY. Try again.
  22. Hunting and Sport Shooting have nothing to do with the Second Amendment, which is about self defense, and coming to the aid of your countrymen.
