      Carry gun for my wife?

      My wife's carry is a Glock 19 9mm. Fits her hand well, completely simple operation, especially in stress situations, and still fairly easy to control with practice. Might not work for some folks, but the ease of use is a major factor when it comes to self defense. My issue with the P22 (which I...

      Gun control thoughts from a mostly-liberal

      Yeah, see, calling people "fools" is exactly what doesn't work. You want to win people over and get them to use their Constitutionally-granted right to vote, to vote in your favor, the best tactic is reason and calm persuasion, not name-calling. This is an important time, especially with more...

      Gun control thoughts from a mostly-liberal

      I know most folks here have a decidedly poor view of anyone who wears a "liberal" label, but in the interest of engagement and civil discussion, I present this well-thought out essay as a means to cogently, calmly, and sensibly explain to your liberal family members, acquaintances, and friends...

      No great loss

      Okay, OP, you may not like his voting record, but comparing this American hero IN ANY WAY to Benedict Arnold is a a step too far. So he didn't vote the way you wanted him to. That's his right, and he damn well earned it. The hyperbole, exaggeration, and insults are uncivil and wholly unnecessary.

      100,000+ Sign Petition to Classify WBC as a Hate Group

      They're cruel, opportunistic, and greedy, but they're also the true test of our way of life. If we shut them up because we don't like what they're saying, then we'll be the next ones on the chopping block. I hate everything they say, but I would hate it more if we made laws restricting what...

      No great loss

      The man served his country and suffered wounds in a war during which his fellow countrymen labeled him an "alien", and he's continued to serve till the day of his death. You may disagree with his politics, but his passing merits respect, as one would give to any soldier of that generation. I...

      Need a restaraunt recommendation in Fishers...

      Cafe Korea is great. Last time I went there, we took a vegetarian friend of mine. When she explained to the lady that she can't have meat for medical reasons, the lady was amusingly shocked, and proceeded to make sure our friend's dish had extra garlic, because "it's very important for your...

      Anyone game on PC? Lan Parties?

      I mostly play MMOs and single-player stuff. We have LAN parties at work (also in Lafayette) for Counterstrike, Sins of a Solar Empire, and other games, at which I am a professional bullet magnet. Depending on the game, a joint event or something could be pretty fun.

      Buying a Gun for the Women in Your Life

      My wife carries a Glock 19 as her duty piece, but has always wanted a 22 plinker for the range (not to mention a gun that doesn't look like it's been beaten to hell). She hates my Walther P22 (yeah, I know, join the club), so this year's Xmas box is a Ruger 22/45 Lite...gold-colored range...

      Why are people against a safety course?

      I personally think every citizen should have to have National Defense training as part of their early secondary schooling. As much as grammar, math, and US history is required, so should training in basic survival, first aid, and weapon safety be covered as a natural part of growing up in this...

      Applied Ballistics in Lafayette has new hours

      Awesome! I tried to visit them on Monday last week, only to find out they were closed. It's like they read my mind!

      I'm So Proud Of This Gorgeous Woman (lots of Video)

      Amen. I was kind of making fun of my wife (who carries for work) just last week about how, at the range, she acts all innocent and gun-shy so that guys will line up to show her their guns. She pointed out to me, rather seriously, that it wasn't an act, and that she genuinely wanted to get every...

      Need advice: am I overreacting?

      Wow! Thanks for all the responses! I had actually forgotten that it's technically a chargeable crime to point an unloaded firearm at a person; always just seemed one of those common sense things to me, like how there's no law against sticking your hand in a garbage disposal. Yeah, I should...

      Need advice: am I overreacting?

      Reposting this from the LGS forum, in the hopes of getting a useful answer. Here's the deal: The last two times I've been to the Castleton GM, I've had a firearm pointed in my direction. First time, it was a shotgun. I walk toward the gun counter, and the guy behind the counter raises the...

      gander mountain

      Tell me if I'm overreacting. The last two times I've been to the Castleton GM, I've had a firearm pointed in my direction. First time, it was a shotgun. I walk toward the gun counter, and the guy behind the counter raises the weapon to his shoulder and points it right at me. I stop, give him...
