    RIA Went to the range today with my Rock Island Armory 1911 .45 ACP

    Go to most rent a gun ranges and ask for a 1911. 99 times out of a hundred they hand you a Rock Island Arsenal. When you ask why Rock Island, they say it is cheap and lasts as long or longer than pretty much anything else out there. The BEST out of the box 1911 I ever bought was a Metro Arms...

    Kydex vs Leather

    Like all things, it depends. I like leather, but got a bunch of kydex holsters I got cheap and like fine. GOOD (meaning expensive) leather will out last most kydex holsters. Kydex does much better in wet areas as it doesn't soak up water, go soft, mildew or rot. It does however crack and break...

    College student faces terrorism charges after threatening to melt snowflakes

    Much like RED FLAG laws, if some snowflake idiot is offended or frightened or whatever, the jack booted thugs need to come in and stomp on the persons face, for eternity. Rights? YOU AIN"T GOT NO STINKING RIGHTS! ON YOUR KNEES SLAVE!

    College student faces terrorism charges after threatening to melt snowflakes

    Typical commie thugs attacking a gun owner. It did not say, but since they said his conservative views were "extreme", he is probably a Trump supporter.

    Demonrats... the party that will destroy the constitution

    Try FDR, who WAS a communist! He called "Uncle Joe" Stalin "uncle" because he considered Stalin his "economic, political and ideological uncle". Joe on the other hand despised FDR as a worthless, cheap, drunken, sleaze bag. All the commie crowd FDR, Churchill (war criminal, drunk, etc., etc.)...

    Need help: searching for stolen 1911

    Hit every pawn shop, gun show, flea market and hand out fliers with description and S#. Pawn shops are supposed to check S#, but it won't hurt to drop them a line and keep an eye out to call the PD.

    Legend .45 ACP ammo on sale at Bud's Gun Shop...

    $66/200rds seems high. Go to your local Wally and see if they have any Win White Box left (they no longer sell handgun ammo, or "assault rifle" ammo, which doesn't bother me as all my rifles are "defense rifles"). It was cheaper here than that and you walk out the door with it instead of ordering.

    Seriously......an elizibeth warren ad?

    I asked Pocahontas Warren if she was really a woman. She got really mad and asked me what that was supposed to mean. I said "Well you lied about everything else..."

    Remington 870 12ga (as I posted on Facebook. LOL...)

    Let's say... "several" 870s. How they turned up I got no idea! When I was in school a guy brought one in that was buried in pig **** (yes, really) for a year. The farmer leaned it up on the hog lot wall at it fell over and he couldn't find it until he plowed out the hot lot. Gave it to my...

    Demonrats... the party that will destroy the constitution

    Isn't John calling Hitler a "demonrat", like Pelosi saying George Washington wanted to be a "King"? Makes you wonder if history is taught, in any meaningful way, any more, or if these people can read or look simple stuff up before opening their mouths. What next, 2+2=5? Well to be fair they both...

    From the Reloading Bench...

    That one case (photo one and two, photo1 one where you can see light shining half way down, and photo 2 looks like it is cracked all the way down) probably should not be shot, although there is at least one idiot here who will tell you it is OK.

    Wilson or STI?

    Wow John, your killer comebacks are killing me here. Probably because I either laugh so hard that someone would actually post what you do and consider it a serious come back, or shake my head for the same reason. Here's an idea: move out of your mommy's basement, get a job and get a life. That...

    Seriously......an elizibeth warren ad?

    Personally I love Creepy Joe. Every time he opens him mouth I know I am going to laugh my ass off and think "Thank you God, I'm not an idiot or demonrat! But I repeat my self." Having lived under communism, there ain't no way in hell I'd vote for it!

    Wilson or STI?

    Well, that fact based and well thought out reply sure put me in my place! Glad you stuck to facts and didn't go all Dave Hogg or Creep Joe Biden on me and dare me to a fist fight or whatever you crazy dems are always threatening people with.

    Wilson or STI?

    Got to agree with Zipper046, don't spend a large amount of money on a carry gun. Why? If you are forced to use it, A) it will disappear never to be seen again, B) you will be given a lump of pistol shaped rust. Know of both cases, repeatedly. Over at one 1911 site they were babbling about this...

    Observations from the gun show in Richmond, VA today (1/4/20)

    Unfortunately there are so many gun show here is eastern/central Iowa that they are not worth going too. Two shows at the same place this month, about a dozen at the same place this year, seventeen shows (that is one show every three weeks) this year at the capital! The "no yard sale/flea market...

    Old to everything, new to this forum

    EXPD, liked your title here. I got the same problem you do, the only thing older than I feel right now is.... hmmmm, I'll think of something later. 41 Charlie has the same problem I do, I can't afford a new car either!

    For anyone thinking of getting into reloading...

    New guy, first post, so take it for what it is worth.... I keep hearing how casting your own bullets saves all this money... personally I don't see it. First off is equipment; molds, sizer-luber, bullet lube, and let's not forget lead! Even if you go around and get "free" lead from tire stores...

    Anyone from Iowa here?

    Greetings from Iowa. Couple days after Christmas and 40+ degrees! Thank God for global warming as last year it was -30 degrees out there! Personally I think it is all the demonrat Prez contenders coming and blowing hot air. Hope that isn't considered non-PC as I actually enjoy going to see them...
