The Illinois ban is bad (depending on your point of view), not sure how it stacks with Colorado...especially the one they just passed. A few of my largest complaints about what Illinois did are: Banning parts (and I do pretty much all gun parts, most sights just take a "will not ship to...

That firearm, and pretty much anything even close to it, are now banned where I live. I kinda had my eye on a Scorpion Evo, for years...but they banned those, too.

I would love to shoot one of those. The design is amazing, and it would be a neat collection piece...but I wonder if it shoots well I won't sit here and claim that I've messed with a bunch of HK handguns, and many do not have great triggers. Moving on... I might have mentioned earlier that...

The Highwaymen Saw this on the 'flix, thought "why not"...it was...solid. There were a few things I didn't know about how B&C met their end...the acting was solid enough. It could have been a bit shorter...but it was decent.

My wife and I, being kinda bored (shitty weather outside) and looking for something to watch at night, decided to watch Vice Principals...it's no Righteous Gemstones, but it's decent.

No insult taken. I guess what I took from it was the origins of bike clubs being for social outcasts, giving them a place to belong...before they became corrupted and turned into violent crime syndicates. Perhaps there's more than that...but that was my take.

Same here...my wife and I started watching it as a "meh, why not", and quickly fell in love with it. It's an absurd show...but it is freaking stupid and funny. The Gentleman (series): This one started out kinda slow, but in the end, it was freaking awesome. During my recent time off, I've...

Being laid up, I've watched quite a few of moves over the past month...some I haven't seen, or haven't seen in decades. The Bikeriders: I may be missing something, but this movie seemed pointless, slow, and boring. Casino: This is, and always will be a guilty pleasure of mine...I only watch...

Eh...I know what you're saying. With that said, there are shooting sports that involve plenty of moving, IPSC, IDPA, 3-gun, Cowboy Action...some of these involve quite a bit of sport, mixed in with shooting. For a target guy like myself, I think it's just lack of better terms. I don't hunt, I...

44 magnum really is my favorite round, especially reloading it. You can tame them down, you can get them hot enough to put another hole in the ozone layer, they're fun. At the moment, all I have is a standard Super Redhawk that is scoped. I have it for 25-100 yd bench rest. I mentioned earlier...

Actually...it's been great. I was in so much pain, for so long, that this surgery has been a godsend. I'm just about 4 weeks past surgery, and I'm walking 1.5 miles/day, already.

Jesus...ease up, fella. Sport shooting is my hobby...I'm just discussing that a bit. I put holes in paper and shoot at steel plates...not sure how your sensing any macho horseshit vibes.

Yeah...zero hard feelings on my end, I knew it was coming. To quote good ol' Danny Glover "I'm too old for this shit"...I'll leave the trolling to someone else.

I'm not here to chuck insults, have fun if you want to. I have a lot to celebrate, this is easily the happiest I've been in my life, and there's zero need for negativity on my end.

Yeah...and as much as it hurts my ego to admit this, so many here that spoke of that being a sign of relationship-rot, back when I discussed it, were totally right. We corrected that years ago. Currently...eh, that's ironically a bit of a different story. I can sleep in a bed for about 3-4...
