This is an interesting thread because I've never thought about a hand-held ham radio.
Lord knows I don't need a new hobby but my wife and I often travel to places and engage in outdoor activities where there is no cell signal and therefore no personal communication. Never mind the SHTF...
Consider giving Eric a call. CTS is the local gun store so he "gets it". Tell him what you have in mind and see if the range can accommodate you.
I've seen pistols on the 100-yard range once before but the firing line moved forward toward the berm They have a serious concern about bullets...
It may be further than you want to go but the Crawfordsville Conservation Club has a 100-yard rifle range with roofed concrete benches and handgun ranges. It's a nice range and not expensive but about 30 minutes from the Danville club and about 40 minutes from Eagle Creek. Call Crawfordsville...
I won a Pard IR night vision scope attachment at the NRA convention. I happen to have an old Osprey scope in the basement and a 9mm suppressor that has a side rating for .300 BLK.
Hmm, It seemed obvious that I needed a rifle to pull it all together.
Enter the Axis II. The whole thing is...
I'm a city boy who married a farmer's daughter and became a convert to country life. I suggest stretching on other things to buy as much land as you can. It's at least a partial hedge against sprawl.
My advice, be careful about what projects and additions you plan. Each is likely to...
I like this guy a lot and I'm okay with thoughtful changes in position over time (if he has in fact changed his positions). He's young and as an entrepreneur, his perspective and thinking would be different from someone contemplating a presidential run that must think hard about very large...
IIR the state had a $6b surplus last year.
Step 1. Carve out a bit out for a rainy day fund and then send a check for about $2k to each household.
Step 2. Cut government spending
Step 3. Repeat step 1.
Yup, if someone supports gun rights we have common ground. That's my only gateway issue for a politician.
Groups like Pink Pistols, Liberal Gun Owners Club, Asian American Guns Owners Association, and National African American Gun Owners Associate are growing like crazy and pressing for...
Welcome.
I'm a dues-paying member of the Liberal Gun Club.
These are real-deal gun people who advocate for more gun freedoms.
I'm in favor of all people who understand and support responsible gun ownership coming together for a common cause.

Timing is everything. I think there is small but growing support for redefining or eliminating drug 'users' as prohibited people.
Beyond that, I don't see much more happening before the election.
I couldn't agree more. My first trip was just finding my way around and getting a feeling for the process. Hopefully, I'll have something worthwhile to say when I go back.
This is the lead sentence of the story and of course, it could be misleading. But later in the story Taylor talks about not having an "official relationship" with ICE and a concern over the number of Spanish-speaking officers.
Maybe he's simply following the city's (his boss's) policy, or...
I had a brief exchange with Rev. Harrison on Twitter and pointed out that Chief Taylor may be a fine man but 65% of murder cases go unsolved. That is hard to accept.
His response was (paraphrased) that the police can't do it without the community and the community won't help the police because...
Yes, the gas station may foster an environment that encourages this behavior and I'll let those whose job it is figure that out. There is a serious side to this.
But, Shell might also poach these guys from 7-11 and put them on the night shift.
You guys are doing great work. I went to my first legislative hearing last session and plan to do more this session.
Are there any thoughts toward a firearms freedom bill? I know it's pointless until SCOTUS recognizes the Commerce Clause but I'm hopeful the court will strike down the Chevron...
