  1. So just so I'm clear, we can't hold politicians to anything they say...even if it's something they propose in a bill, if according to a few/some/most it will never become law? In that case, there should have been no backlash against Akin in the MO Senate race because him saying 'legitimate rape', etc doesn't really matter because it would have near zero chance of ever affecting any laws--is this correct? Same for the entire GOP--the majority of the party's politicians call themselves pro-life, and occassionally put up bills to deny abortion, but it really doesn't matter because since 1973, abortion rights have always been upheld--they have never been taken away. Also, thank God folks in NY don't have to get rid of their 'pre-ban 1994 high capacity magazines'...oh wait, yeah, they have to get rid of them or become a criminal. Sure sounds like Dems coming for their guns, or at least gun magazines to me. https://www.governor.ny.gov/2013/gun-reforms Try again man...
  2. Agree--either he is trying to make an actual point or doesn't know how to relay sarcasm effectively. Either way, there are in fact people trying to take away our guns. Just look at a bill proposed by Dems in the Missouri State Legislature...just one example for you.
  3. Yes. Yes I do. This is what scares me about the Navy... No, it's not because a bunch of dudes want to stand around in towels hanging out with each other (besides it's ok now), but because they have a Safety Board in the bathroom! That's just too much...I can do some Ops Limits and Boldface but that's about it.
  4. But before you go... Because I get to feel safe and secure that I get to work in drug-free work environment.... ...and
  5. Great networking organizations that won't spam your email account and super fun/cool social opportunities for new pilots and aircrew...
  6. Most hilarious post yet!
  7. Outstanding customer service from support squadrons, like Finance...

    PSA has forged stripped lowers for $120...not a bad price these says for a non-polymer. https://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/ar-15-05/lower-parts/lower-receivers/psa-ar15-lower.html
  9. 26 Jul 05'! Damn! That was definitely a while ago. Don't worry, just take after our politicians and deny, sidetrack, and then deny again. Repeat if necessary. Back on subject--I've been missing Rainman as well. And as of 20 Sep 11', "It's ok now".

    https://grabagun.com/magpul-industries-pmag-m3-223rem-30rd-blk.html $26 a piece for PMags and with free shipping. Definitely not the worst price these days. If you need some and they're not sold out, I wouldn't sit on it.
  14. You're not? Funny, you talk shit about officers damn near everyday on this forum. And this issue is no different--you comment on things you have little to no idea on what you're talking about. Do yourself a favor, if you do happen to make it into the Air Force, please don't be as foolish of a 2Lt as your portray yourself here. It's challenging enough to mentor the young guys when they don't have the 'I know everything' attitude. As a school house IP, guys you like you always took much more of my valuable time compared to those who needed additional help but were willing to take instruction and critism. Welcome to the military.

    https://www.trijicon.com/na_en/products/product3.php?pid=TA31ECOS Here's a fantastic option if you can afford it. I shot my buddy's last weekend and though transitioning from the red dot to the ACOG/magnified reticle (ie scope) would definitely take some practice, it seems to capture thr best of both worlds...and it's hard to go wrong with a Trijicon.

    It's definitely a step in the right direction, however, even if and when Illinois does in fact technically enact a CCW law, I'm sure it will be a 'May Issue' State and be damn near impossible for the Joe citizen to obtain one, much like in Hawaii.

    https://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm/ID/84585 S&W MP15-22 w/ the threaded barrel. $422 and in-stock. This would have been a fair price this past summer. Get em' while they last!
  19. From you, I'll wear it as a badge of honor!
  20. Interesting...especially since the CRH (60 replacement) is still receiving funding per this year's DoD Budget. Then again with sequestration, I would be surprised if the program gets cx'd...again.
  21. I forgot to add that he's going to call you a racist as well.
  22. Careful now...if you disagree with Joe he's going to call you stupid, heartless, and let you know why he's correct and why you should never question his opinion.

    My stats are referring to the 2004 National Election in which Bush only received 44% of the nationwide Hispanic vote...and it's been going downhill since. I do believe a Rubio, Jindhal or Martinez could do better than Romney's 30% (seems hard to imagine that they could do worse), but it's coming down to the fact that Dems see a solid majority of Hispanics voting their way in years to come, and so they're giving what the majority of Hispanics want to see come from government--welfare, amnesty for illegals, bilingual education, etc. For the record, I don't disagree at all with Joe and Nsplayr that the Dems are playing politics a whole lot better than the GOP (especially on the national level), but to me, the Republic is way more important than playing politics, though those on the left seem to disagree. So back to the guns--I'd say expect more of the same from the States where Dems have control. They believe this issue is on their side and in a little less than 2 years we'll see if they are right. In the meantime, I'd continue to stock up, especially as prices become somewhat more reasonable again. The Dems are showing most of their cards in regards to the 2nd Amendment, so don't be surprised when they go all out--1 more liberal Justice on the SCOTUS and the Heller decision would have been flipped.

    I could care less if we're down to one State, as long as that's the one that I am in. Texas will be Colorado in 20-30 years. Hispanics are by far the fasting growing demographic and they are currently being born 50% out of wedlock which is more of a recipe for requiring welfare than not...couple that with that they recently voted 70% for a politician that promised everybody free stuff and there you have it--solid and growing base for the Dems (Bush never even got to 45%) . Throw in the wild card that the GOP might be stupid enough to allow the illegals to become citizens and then it's even worse. All I'm saying is that if you're trying to forecast what a State will be like, you can't just look at its current makeup. Texas is a no-go for me. But as always when it comes to this issue, I hope I am wrong.

    No worries man, you're exaxtly right. Anybody who cares about freedom should write/call their reps. Don't say it too loud though, as we might scare the few libs on here who are scared of guns.
