This seems like a good idea and I may, for the first time, give Hogsett credit for something positive. It brings more manpower to law enforcement and attacks local crime from a slightly different angle.
The Deputy Police Chief had positive comments and, according to the article, the focus is...
Mostly I'll use it for new shooters on our home range. We'll typically hand a first-timer either a Colt Gold Cup or a S&W 22A. They both choke on bulk ammo. They run better on mini mags but not as well as I would like.
I'll give Lapua a try but reserve the ammo for new newbies or perhaps...
Yes, yes, I get your point. I can feel the love in the air.
Seriously though it's a good test for the target material. My wife and I both have instructor ratings and we often invite beginners to our range.
Since all of my shots are perfect it's clear the errant shots came from someone...
I use pressure treated wood certified for ground contact on my range and my homemade deer stands. I don't know how long it will last but some of it's easily been out for 10 years.
One of my commercial target stands has iron (?? or some similar type of soft metal) legs. It's good because...
A Harvard professor named Harvey Silverstein wrote a book years ago about how most professionals unknowingly commit three felonies a day.
"In Three Felonies a Day, Harvey A. Silverglate reveals how federal criminal laws have become dangerously disconnected from the English common law tradition...
I'm looking for suggestions for the most reliable .22 ammo. I know the caliber will never work as well as I might like but what gets me the closest? I've had some luck with CCI mini mags but wonder if there is something better. Thoughts?
Why do people vote liberal? I like a quote attributed to Tom Clancy:
“The general difference between conservatives and liberals is that liberals like pretty pictures and conservatives like to build bridges that people can drive across.”
Liberalism sounds better, nicer and who doesn't like...
I check INGO once or twice a day and look at Facebook at least once a day. I use Youtube a lot but that's not a two way interaction.
I find Twitter to be a waste of time but Instagram in small doses works for comic relief.
In this case you either tolerate the situation and live an armed careful life or move out of the county. A fight against the siren song of modern liberalism isn't going to by successful in most large cities.
The standard response of politicians arrested for DUI is to apologize to anyone that will listen, claim responsibility but hint at other causes and then promise to attend rehab. After that any mention of the incident is dismissed at old news.
A charge of leaving the scene of an accident may...
A local Indiana podcast, The Murder Sheet podcast recently interviewed former FBI director James Comey. At 41:15 he’s asked about the security training the agency provides to the families of employees going overseas and that his own family received. What’s interesting is that the first thing he...
Ultimately I don't hold Hogsett or Mears responsible and I don't think structural changes are the solution (but they might help).
Mears won reelection by 18 percentage points in spite of his record. Hogsett was elected in 2015 and reelected in 2019. I'll wager he wins again this fall. Marion...
I like the way my Gunsite instructor phrased it "reholster carefully and reluctantly"
I make it a point to always reholster slowly and in consistent matter.
I like thinking of it as a reluctant processes.
A counter argument is that the recidivism rate for violent felons is around 60% where the conviction rate for the general public is less than 1% There is variance in the data by source but you get the point.
Yes, there are a lot of people with prior convictions that should be allowed to...
