    What is Idaho Falls like?

    Definitely would thrive better in a conservative area, relatively rural but not isolated; real estate cost is going to be a major factor as well. Winters: yeah, I know. Grew up outside of Buffalo NY; not sure I want to endure winters another order of magnitude worse, but the State looks so...

    What is Idaho Falls like?

    Seriously thinking about moving to Idaho, want a down-home reasonable cost of living area that might need a crippled dentist and plenty of open ground to shoot. If not the Falls, then where? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    guns and lawyers.

    Greg, the problem is not the handgun. Its the society that refuses to accept or assign responsibility where it is due. A legal system that would allow a civil trial by a person found to be criminally liable is insane. The choice of caliber or ammunition should be totally secondary to why they...

    Depression

    I was told this by my father as well, but more of a life lesson than an intent to demean. See the Zen parable about the Empty Cup. I have suffered from depression most of my life, all of it stemming from bullying during my entire childhood. Constant physical and mental abuse, broken bones...

    Jessie Ventura In court suing Chris Kyle's family

    This. I never gave the bar scene a second thought. Never associated with Ventura. Now, in my opinion, he has demonstrated a thin skinned personality that has ruined forever any admiration I ever had for him relating to his previous acting (*cough*) and political (*hack*) accomplishments...

    Jessie Ventura In court suing Chris Kyle's family

    You know, it is my understanding that The SpecOps brotherhood is a very tight knit group who don't take it well when one of their own is wronged. Is there a fund or organization set up where like minded persons can contribute to the Kyle family? I haven't got a lot, but I want to show my...

    Gunsmithing Tinkering to fit longer bullets???

    This. If there is a single shot adapter for your action, get it and carry extra rounds on a wrist shell holder on your support hand. I avoid DBMs like the plage in bolt actions just for this reason. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Gunsmithing Win 70 Stocks

    The Winchester Model 70 appears to be becoming the red-headed stepchild of the aftermarket parts world. I have been trying to find a stock with an aluminum bedding block in a varmint or tactical design, off the shelf, for a Winchester 70 Long Action and am only coming up witha few options from...

    Gunsmithing Barrel Contouring and fluting

    No; I assumed no barrel maker would touch anything but their own steel and assumed I would need a private 'smith. Also need a Rem 700 action trued and the raceway opened up for an oversize bolt. I'm sure there is a good precision gunsmith out there that takes in these jobs... Sent from my...

    I have on of these but have yet to have to use it: http://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/handgun-tools/stuck-case-removers/broken-shell-extractor-prod23311.aspx I like the Cerrosafe method because you can get rid of any excess easily if you slop it on a bolt lug, but sometimes you...
