For those of you that ride motorcycles, it's a nice trip. If you come in from the north, you can dodge the traffic.

Eh? The article says Jewish victims again and again.

I'm not talking about the race of the assailants, I'm talking about the race of the victims.

Why inject race?

30 seconds of internet searching will show that the victims, all over the country, are of all races.

The councilwoman needs to get her head Logic Circuits checked, but Savage is a bit off for implying that it's only against Jewish people.

Not since last december.

I look constantly in stores and online. I found a few hundred rounds in MA and that was it.

Over time, I tried all the 1911 style pistols in the Hoffman's rental counter. I was told that the 1911's that fed 9mm seemed to jam more and this was my experience as well. It was also apparent that they were not kept up as well as someone would clean and maintain a personally owned pistol. I suspe...

Happened to be in Mass this weekend and a Dick's had quite a bit of ammo- in particular, they had a lot of .22... which I can't find in CT.

I'm thinking ammo stock, in general, is picking back up.

Been thinking about the mini 14. I have no type of rifle at all at the moment.

Not sure where I'd shoot it, though.

Where would you suggest? I've been to half a dozen CT locations and never found much of a selection, often found very clique-ish sales people and no one seems to have a decent range.

I'm very interested in alternatives.

Gun store visits

I'm trying to figure something out... Why do people often bring crowds with them to a gun store? I went to Hoffman's today to (possibly) pick up one of their Mini-14 promos and found myself in a very crowded store. After a bit, I started paying attention to the groups and realized that I was one of ...

I haven't watched Cable TV in several years as I prefer to control my news sources more. I have gone to their website occasionally and I do think they are a more credible news source for world events than some American sources, including some top tier channels. Up until a recent job change, I spent ...

If you dig deeper, there are a few reasons why not to use it. It's hard to dig deep due to the massive number of websites just reposting it with supportive comments.

Snopes had some info on it and there are some legal views on it out there.

I don't think it's going to help much, unfortunately.

Hah - I looked at one of those when I bought mine. If I had gone with Harley, that would probably have been the one. So good looking. What did you end up getting? I was giving some serious consideration to the new Honda CB1100. My main goal was something for single trips lasting thousands of miles,...
