      Willy Graham. The other side of the coin.

      Sigh. Fairly new to INGO, haven't played here much since settling into state, and my normal cut & paste doesn't seem to be working ... only the background code shows :-( What am I doing wrong hereabouts in getting an image to appear? I'll surrender this meme war bout to figure this out ...

      Do we really want to engage in meme battles over faith here instead of focusing on the OP & Billy Graham?

      Willy Graham. The other side of the coin.

      I'm broadly with itchy & PaulF ... I'm a skeptic of all "faith" (including in gov't), but I'm not one to belittle individuals for their faith, only for any attempts to force their views upon another. That said, Billy Graham -- be he scourge or saint, or somewhere in between -- did NOT deserve...

      new in town; Columbus area gunsmith?

      Thanks jrh84, I'll look him up! For now, I'll use Watson Chambers Defense Institute on 17th St for FFL purposes (close-by and range on-hand!). I'll likely use them for a class or two, as well, once my CHL comes through.

      new in town; Columbus area gunsmith?

      Hey all, I first intro'd myself on INGO back in May while still in California, and have now somewhat settled into Columbus IN and am beginning to pick my hobbies back up, to include re-engaging on INGO. I've found an FFL & local range that'll be my initial "go-to's", but I don't have any...

      Family heirloom musket, leather shot pouch needing cleaning

      indiucky, I'm just now getting back up on INGO as I settle in, so I apologize for not responding sooner. That sounds like very good advice! It turns out that my parents passed the musket etc. on to my cousin who still lives near Parke County, but she's admitted that she just has it stored away...

      Family heirloom musket, leather shot pouch needing cleaning

      A quick google search of who they are shows they'll be a great contact for the leather shot pouch; thanks! Both of the museums mentioned will also be valuable in learning about pro preservationists, and perhaps gathering a bit more info on the musket itself. It has no engravings (manufacturer...

      Convention of States

      Gregr, I think you're absolutely right about the General Citizenry's cuplpability in allowing this. Once I actually make it into state and get a wee bit settled, I need to search you out for a conversation ... I think we've similar views. Personally, I've been registered and voted Libertarian...

      Convention of States

      I've little doubt that any CoS-approved amendment(s) that the Establishment (Dems & GOP either/ both) don't like would be legally challenged, blocked by lower courts, and eventually dragged to the USSC ... which [unless composed of 5 strong Constitutionalists, of which maybe 3 could be termed...

      Gander Mountain closing ALL stores discussion

      Some Gander Mountain stores in Michigan may survive nationwide closings | MLive.com Looks like they're not ALL closing ... but discussions with leasing agencies & landlords (as gregr & I had touched on) will help determine which stores remain. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that GM had...

      Everything ANTIFA thread

      As a About-To-Be-Ex-Californian, I can say that if Cali were to try to secede, the Central Valley (from Redding to Bakersfield, minus the thorn of the City of Sacramento), entirety of the Sierras, and desert would break from Cali and join Oregon, Nevada, and AZ. The far-north coast would...

      Hello as I return to Indiana!

      Yeah, on top of the 10rd mag restrictions, every rifle that meets Cali "assault weapon" classification (such evil things like flash suppressors, pistol grips, bayonet lugs, etc.) must NOT have easily (push a button) removeable magazines ... so that mayhem-causing murderers will spend more time...

      Hello as I return to Indiana!

      Being deployed a/o away-on-orders for 5.5 years of the 13 did take a bit of the sting out of it. SF Bay area, the coast, Napa, the Sierras, and Tahoe made it a great place for an extended visit ... but continued residence (and family separation) was obviously not going to work for me. CA is...

      Gander Mountain closing ALL stores discussion

      Quite so, gregr!! Average dollar-using citizens get screwed twice: as taxpayers who'll have to eventually cover the gov't bailout, and as dollar-users that must face the increased money-printing / inflation to allow the gov't to do the bailout! Garrrrghhh ... but that's enough of politics &...

      Hello as I return to Indiana!

      Ecstatic definitely is the case on firearms! I bought a used Russian Tigr (Dragunov) at an Indianapolis gun show back in spring '99 right after I returned from my officer basic course at Ft. Benning, and between my next few years in Chicagoland and then Cali, I've only been able to pull it out...
