    Why such a stigma with California gun owners??

    With respect I would offer that quoting a wiki doc to describe CA macro economic problems is not directionally accurate. Much of CA's spending, and related service industries, is built on CA's massive debt. The only options for CA's union/special interest/victim leaning economy is either a slow...

    Spartan Precision Rifles--thoughts?

    I have a 6.5cm being built now. I checked around and, while there are a number of great smiths out there Marc stood out for a number of reasons. His attention to detail has been exceptional, he listens to what you want, he is good about offering his input when he thinks there is a better option...

    So I just had to endure the dumbest shit of all time on the phone

    If you work for B of A, have worked for B of A or ever happen to work for B of A there is a little corner of hell waiting for you. And my hope is that, in true Sisyphusian fashion, you will be forced to service Hillary C and Nancy P while the rest of the world gets on with thier lives. Yep...

    Jessie Ventura In court suing Chris Kyle's family

    Cant say I know enough about this case to really have an opinion other than the superficial reaction of he is a dill weed. In terms of juries the phrase ' if it does not fit, you MUST acquit' comes to mind. Given what JV has said about this it seems like a his honorable actions might...

    Baretta taking 45 million investment/ 300 jobs from MD to Tenn.

    With all due respect the company did not, effectively, put the employees out of work. Local, regional, state and federal politicians enacting laws/regs did that with support of the local populace. The company was working within the given set of operational parameters it found itself having to...

    Boots, cowboy ones to be more specific.

    Now that would be a great pari of boots if you could get them made out of a Bison hide you have. We go with the all leather because they come out of the stirrup a little better and while I would like to say I've never come out of the saddle that would not be true. I dont mind the occasional...

    A different sort of query for you guys....

    Not sure if you are looking for career advice or a life coach. And I dont mean that disrespectfully. The difficult answer is you need to decide what you want in life and what sacrifices you are willing to make to get there. Be honest in doing that. If you value an interesting work life...

    Boots, cowboy ones to be more specific.

    Sounds like you have an answer and one of these days I will get some custom boots. We dont ride in anything that doesn't have leather soles(but we dont get the winters you have). If you can find Rod Patricks they come in a lot of sizes/widths and are well made. I would be interested in...

    Is that a hobby or an addiction? Nothing greater, to me, than than watching the Hackamore classes at Snaffle Bit.

    Is this nessesary?

    To expand on BB's correct comments.... The reality is that most LE agencies are operating just as the local community wants them to. If one does not like the way they operate then one needs to take steps to change the management/power structure to ensure that operating standards are changed...

    in the market for a dodge ram 3500

    I am interested in this thread as we are also looking for a hauler. We've had Dodges since they first started putting Cummins in them and have owned every one of the body styles. We also cant seem to get a Chevy/GMC dealer to help us even unless we want an electric car. So they are out of the...
