The good thread!

I went to the outdoor range today...and I came away feeling pretty good; with my offhand marksmanship @ 100 yards, using my peep sighted Model 1407 Match 54 Anshutz (22lr) in the wind.

Congratulations on your catch!

Here is my humble contribution:

Ohio moves closer than ever to passing permitless CCW into law.


----------

COLUMBUS, Ohio — For the first time in more than 20 years of trying, gun-rights advocates in Ohio say they’re optimistic that the state will soon no longer require a license to carry a hidden handgun or other deadly weapons.


Nearly half of all Ohio House Republicans are co-sponsoring new legislation to abolish the state’s conceal-carry license and training requirements. The legislation, House Bill 174, would also expand the list of allowable concealed weapons to include rifles and shotguns, instead of just handguns.

In addition, the bill would repeal an Ohio law requiring motorists stopped by law enforcement to notify the officer if they are carrying a gun.
Similar legislation has been introduced during every Ohio legislative session for at least two decades, but all of those attempts went nowhere.
The difference now is that Gov. Mike DeWine, unlike his recent predecessors, is expected to sign the bill if it passes the Republican-dominated Ohio General Assembly.

“I never expected it to pass during prior sessions,” said Jim Irvine, president of the pro-gun rights Buckeye Firearms Association. “But I think this session it is likely to.”

A DeWine spokesman declined to say whether the governor would sign HB 174 but noted that the Greene County Republican generally supports what he said were Second Amendment rights.

Currently, Ohioans wishing to carry a concealed handgun must obtain a $67 permit from their local county sheriff and complete a minimum of eight hours of safety training (at least two hours of which must be range or live-fire training). They also must be at least 21 years old and not disqualified from carrying a gun because of a past felony conviction.

However, an increasing number of other states are moving to abolish such permit requirements. Earlier this month, neighboring Kentucky became the 16th state to let people carry concealed guns without needing government approval.

Good news indeed!
 
:LOL:




That's good! My Uncle runs a camp for kids that are about to get molested.


Make sure he teaches them how to properly use the KaBar or other fighting knife of their choice to dispatch the molestor / predator.

Remember: Thrust, twist, and twist again in the opposite direction as you yank it back out.
 
Post all positive things! Nothing negative! This is the feel good thread! I got to fish today! Caught a big mess of largemouth bass! It was a great day?

In all seriousness, today was a good day.

I've been trying to make progress with this Remington MSR project of mine and finally have gotten somewhere. Accurate is sending me the last of the MSR/PSR magazines that they have (ever made) and Tooley has two barrel blanks heading his direction. Slowly, but is indeed coming right along!

Hahaha. I'm pretty sure the only "stabbing" that's going to happen at his retreat doesn't involve the use of a knife... ?
 
My M.S. was flaring up yesterday. I took my .22 to the range for some LR relief, and fun. I got some respectable groups in considering it was the 1st time out this year ( snowed in range).
Went home cooked a great burger with 5 strips of bacon, and some Jack on ice while watching the NYY loose!
I thought it was a 100% day ! ( untill my Girl made it a 150% great day!)

Life didnt suck yesterday!

No shit, my aunt has MS badly and the only thing besides steroids that actually helps is weed. She lives in NY and has a card so it's all legal, but I dunno what kind of fuckery they would pull on your gun rights. Food for thought, at least.

I managed to get through the whole day at work without hurting myself somehow. Idk, if its a positive, but my daughters cat has somehow figured out how to open the door to the house if its not locked. He hasn't however learned to shut it yet.
