  1. WTF? Someone needs to be slapped very hard!
  2. Well played!
  3. Fuck that, it's still 35-10 in my book!
  4. There probably wasn't enough room at the bottom for all the accolades he deserved, such as great friend to so many, a mentor to all met, a shining example of a leader in today's Air Force and obviously founder of BaseOps. I hope whoever took that photo paid proper respects to him.
  5. I think he meant Walgreens. I get prescriptions from CVS all the time without any problems.
  6. Anyone else notice/hear that USFK's website was TU'd for the past week?!?
  7. Today would have been Rich's 40th birthday! We miss ya, brother!
  8. What you do on your own time is no one else's business!
  9. FIFY. And, on a different note...
  10. "He led an 11-person team developing policy for 17 subordinate units and executing strategic communication plans through television, radio and print journalism for ACC leaders." A real warfighter! And a bit of a chub to boot!

    With Rick Perry (and hopefully Greg Abbott to follow) in the governor's mansion, chances are Texas will remain the conservative bastion it is despite the current shift in demographics for the near future. Plus, I think the trend will lost steam. I remember being stationed in Idaho in the mid-80s, there was a huge influx of Californians moving there and concerns they'd shift the political balance there. It apparently tapered off as the Gem State remains hardcore conservative. Whereas I am sure Wyoming will remain staunchly pro-gun for the long term, I don't see there being much incentive for Magpul and/or Colt to move there even given the former's close proximity. Texas offers much better opportunities for both companies, and a more stable environment. As for Obama, it doesn't surprise me. The man has an agenda, and doesn't care how much misinformation he passes as long to achieve it. It's pathetic.

    I picked this up a few weeks ago for my Kindle when it was being offered for free, and it's actually a pretty good e-book for anyone looking to purchase their first pistol. Handgun Boot Camp Whereas there are a few points that I don't necessarily agree with, for the most part it does a pretty comprehensive job in educating someone who has no experience with firearms on buying and shooting their first handgun. I am happy to see that the necessarily emphasis on safety is there, and the entire book is written in a relaxed, easy-to-understand manner. So if you know of anyone contemplating their first pistol, or even want to encourage someone to get into shooting, I highly recommend this for them. Cheers! M2

    FOPA provides for passages through states only allowing for short stops (gas, eating, etc.). The article states she spent time in NY to visit her husband while he was on leave. A similar incident happened a while back to an individual who was delayed overnight in NJ. He got his luggage (with the firearm inside), left the airport to spend a night in a hotel, and was arrested upon his return. https://www.foxnews.c...-supreme-court/ The Supreme Court denied Revell's petition to sue Port Authority of New York and New Jersey police for arresting him on illegal possession of a firearm in New Jersey and for not returning his gun and ammunition to him for more than three years.

    You are making more out of this than it is, my friend. You know I am very pro-gun and think the NY laws are ridiculous and unConstitutional; but the lady in question simply didn't do her homework. I don't think she is a hardened criminal but I also don't think she has a defense to prosecution with the story she tells. She blatantly admits she didn't know the laws and whether that will be accepted as an excuse has yet to be seen... But sorry, in this case it was a matter of pure ignorance...

    Do you really think this lady did this with the forethought of changing the law? It doesn't appear so. It was done out of ignorance, and as we all know that is no justification for breaking the law. As for NY's gun laws, of course I think they are unConstitutional. I know what "shall not be infringed" means but apparently bigger brains than mine have ruled otherwise. Did she have criminal intent? No. Does that means she gets away with breaking the law? No. I hope the DA is understanding and works out a plea bargain that reduces her charges to a misdemeanor if not dismissed entirely; but by no means do I excuse what she did because of her ignorance. If life where as black and white as that, there would be zero gun restrictions in this country; but we all know what the reality is... And comparing her to Rosa Parks? Seriously?

    Helo Yes, although I would consider that to be especially stupid. I go TDY to a lot states where I cannot carry, and since my preference is to steer clear of going to prison, I abide by the laws whether I agree with them or not. A convicted felon can't own firearms. Hell, a convicted felon cannot even touch a firearm. Her (and apparantly his) ignorance have put her in a situation where there stands a chance that she will be convicted felon. She's not the first person to have this happen and I doubt she will be the last; but anyone who doesn't take the time and effort to adequately research the laws of any state that they may be traveling to is asking for similar trouble, trouble that could be easily avoided if they do a little homework first...
