    Why get a CCL?

    Absolutely nothing in jurisdictions where there's a legal way to carry without a permission slip, which I understand Alaska is one such jurisdiction. I'd surmise that people who do have Alaska-issued permits, probably obtained them for reciprocity purposes because they travel to the lower 48...

    Post your bike pics!!!

    So I got what I thought was an extra key fob with my new (to me) scooter. I forgot to ask the previous owner why it was different than the other two stock ones he gave me, so today I'm getting ready to put some new highway pegs on the bike and I start pushing buttons trying to figure out what...

    Damage Report From Cat. 2 Hurricane Michael - Dothan, AL Area - We Were Lucky

    So we only had a few trees down. Parts of the property we haven't seen yet since the storm, but if there are a bunch more trees down, I will likely ignore them as I have been far enough back to see that nothing is threatening our out-buildings. Anyway, made a short video of what we have to clean...

    How to get started on multi-state CCW

    Hey, I was trying to stay relatively positive for a self-described newbie. When I told my cousin that he wouldn't even need a permission slip at all if he just moved to AZ, he's been getting closer and closer to pulling the trigger (no pun intended) on that move ever since. I knew about the ammo...

    Is this next?

    If you look around the country, it's happening already. I grew up in SoCal in the '60s. Both auto-openers and stiletto-shaped (auto or manual openers) knives were illegal back then. I don't recall what the restrictions were for fixed blades, but I know for sure that carrying one more than some...

    The NRA Betrays Us

    They'll "weather" it because so many gun owners are clueless about their many betrayals. I can document many of them. Will you dismiss it as "imagined" when I do? Is it "imagined" that the NRA supported the NFA all the way back in 1934? Is it "imagined" that the NRA supported GCA68? Is it...

    The NRA Betrays Us

    I agree that that's true, and that's exactly who I voted for: Nobody. America has been getting shafted by both (or "all" as the case may be) parties since....well....forever. I played the game of choosing between the "lesser of two evils" between 1973 when I became eligible, and 2012 when I...

    The NRA Betrays Us

    Without intending to point that finger at any one individual, I agree wholeheartedly.

    ****'s Sporting Goods

    Most of the time of late it seems like you're trying to convince me that voting doesn't matter a wit. You may want to start listening to yourself. I'm pretty much just kidding, but I've lost the will to LOL about this stuff anymore, so take it as a joke or as serious as a heart attack...

    Outback makes on-duty officer leave

    I do have respect for humans. That's why I stay constantly skeptical and suspicious of cops. Link Removed You're confused. I purposely described them as my opinions to guard against being accused of relating them as facts. For future reference, the English language makes the word "opinion"...

    Massachusetts Demanding Licensed Gun Owners Surrender Bump-Fire Stocks

    Umm.... The linked article and the linked letter therein, say unequivocally that the Masshole state government is threatening current owners of bump stocks and trigger cranks with criminal prosecution if they don't dispose of them within the grace period. Eidolon is 100% right this time. Pay...

    Is The Problem Government, Or Is The Problem People Helping People? You Decide

    I see the problem here as clear as a bell. This is San Antonio, TX on either New Year's Eve or New Year's Day, when it was 25º outside at the time, with an expected low of 15º once the sun went down. The YouTube Channel is "SAEXTACYPREZ," or "Todd" as people who watch his channel know him. He...

    Legal ramifications of fixed blade during concealed carry

    Except for the Bowie stuff, AL is the same. Autos, OTF, gravity knives and everything else is wide open. We also have a state preemption law that prevents jurisdictional monkeying around with knife or gun privileges/restrictions. I'm pretty sure that the Bowie restrictions are a holdover from...

    Legal ramifications of fixed blade during concealed carry

    Just by coincidence, I received an email advertising a "Bowie" knife from a group-buy website I belong to. The knife advertised is made by CRKT, which is a brand I rarely even look at anymore, but it actually has "Bowie" in its model name (CRKT Folts Minimalist Bowie) and it got me to thinking...

    Looks as if Panera Bread has caved to MDA

    I have a patch on my vest that says "Molon Labe." Consider what that Greek phrase means translated into English, and then you'll know how I feel about all my rights. Come and take them. I won't make it easy for you, but it's also not out of the question that a government that runs so far outside...

    Looks as if Panera Bread has caved to MDA

    You really should take Bikenut's advice and read that Link Removed link. He's absolutely, unquestionably right in everything he has said here about rights, and you're absolutely, unquestionably wrong about the Constitution being intended by its author(s) and/or signers to grant us any of them...
