      Oh Crap Moment

      I’m pretty sure the barbershop across the street from the school has a sign inside that encourages carrying. I have not seen very many signs dissuading carry in Crawfordsville. Are there others that you know of?

      So what gives here? Am I getting old.

      Hydrate the day before Drink tepid water at regular intervals Don’t drink too much at one time Electrolytes If you stop sweating when you should be, you’re done. Take a cool shower, sit in the air conditioning, and rehydrate. Heat stroke is no fun.

      How do we go about real compromise?

      When they volunteer something back, we can talk about a tit for tat compromise.

      How do we go about real compromise?

      Haven’t we upheld our end of a compromise over the last several decades? Has not the other side gained much of what they wanted? Proposing to voluntarily give up more is absolute capitulation.

      Where I got my first handgun

      My first handgun was an H&K USP45 at the New York Shoe Shop in Crawfordsville, Indiana. John Gianakis was one heck of a guy. Technically, my mother bought it (my money), and it was “hers” until We transferred it when I turned 21. I could carry it on loan legally, but not own it or buy...

      Independence Day Purchase

      I finally bought the International Harvester M1 Garand that I’ve been wanting for over 20 years. It came from Anchorage, Alaska, and we had to finish cutting wheat, so I have not picked it up yet.

      Phillips & Rodgers M47 Medusa with a 4 inch barrel is probably the most rare modern firearm that I have fired.

      Demonstrations happening downtown Indy 8/29

      I was in Auburn on Sunday to visit the Duesenburg, Auburn, Cord museum. There were about 6-8 16-20 year olds holding BLM signs opposite the courthouse around 1:00 PM. There was one 16-20 year old with a MAGA hat and a Trump flag. Around 2:30, there were about 4 BLM supporters holding signs...

      Installing rip rap

      Ask a farmer that mows the ditch is adjacent to your property if he could hit it with a bat wing bush hog. The only thing that you might have to worry about is getting tractor tracks in your yard.

      Canada bans ‘assault’ style rifles effective immediately

      I don’t wish to be alarmist, but as long as the UN “small arms treaty” hasn’t been removed from the Senate, we are still in trouble. Maybe not this senate, but the next one could ratify the treaty, and it becomes US law. The kicker is that if ratified by the Senate, it is not in violation of...

      Gun Community Myopic and Asleep. Ideas for action needed.

      If we make more work for the local employees, from stocker to general manager, all we do is alienate people from our own community. They will be less inclined to agree with us as we have made our statement at their expense. A possible alternative is to make an itemized list of what you...

      What are your non-NFA Grail Guns?

      What does Evansville have to do with an IHC Garand? I'd love to find one, and I've only been back to Evansville 3 times since I graduated from UE in '04. That sounds like a good reason to visit.
