It's tough for any local stores to compete with the internet. I ordered two flats of Fiocchi Interceptor spreader loads and two flats of Fiocchi .410s Tuesday evening from Hinterland Outfitters, in TX, via the 'net. They were on my steps at 5:00 pm this afternoon. $9.99 flat rate shipping, regardless the amount, and excellent prices.

thanks for tip re hinterland...

So why don't you explain something to us King...

Liberal Left Democrats and Socialists like you complain bitterly about the "ONE PERCENT" and are always promising to level the playing field between the super rich and the poor. Yet California has been controlled by Liberal Left Democrats for decades. Furthermore, California has the highest number of billionaires... And they also lead the nation for the highest number of homeless people.

So King, it seems that if the super wealthy "ONE PERCENT" are running the world, they must be doing so with the help and the blessings of the Liberal Left Democrats who control states like California and New York.

After you explain that to us... will you finally answer my question about why you felt I was cheating Dave with my tagline that contained a link to the NRA Political Victory Fund... Yet you won't say anything about your pal SKB? Stevie has been running a blatant and continuous advertising campaign for his gunsmithing and gun import businesses. He is benefiting financially with his free advertising, and I didn't get a single penny from my support of NRA-PVF.

So why do you and Stevie run away from this question? What are you both so afraid of?

The goal of a liberal and a socialist democrat is to be one of the one percent they speak of.....

Be polite, keith. I asked a question. When you answer mine, I'll respond to yours

Please excuse my intrusion, it would be a godsend if you would go first.

That and we all know keith is not capable of being polite.....might be part of his Serbian heritage.

I don�t often agree with jOe but he is on the money here. Leftist politics is the politics of jealousy and small mindedness. Most leftists are petty bureaucrats in waiting.

I got a new perspective on the "do something" movement yesterday evening, and it's been bothering me ever since. A distraught father came over last night to talk about his grown son being in jail for felony firearm possession (by a felon).

His boy has been a nutcase since birth and in jail most of the last 15 years, on and off. He has a felony conviction among a lot of other things, mostly drug related, but has been out a few months on probation now living with his mom and dad. He has been working a labor job but has gotten back in to meth.

His dad says the meth has led to a serious paranoia problem and the boy/young man has developed the delusion that he needs a gun for protection from rival ex prison gang members. He bought one off the street (probably stolen) and his dad has been helpfully trying to show him how the 9mm auto pistol works. He even signed the son up for "safe shooting lessons".

Things went bad recently and the boy and his mom got into a screaming fight, resulting in the son firing the weapon. Neighbors called police and they arrested him.

Dad's concern was what safer gun, maybe a revolver in a smaller caliber he could get the boy if he got out of jail, which he always seems to do. I told the dad he was the problem for enabling not to mention aiding and abetting his son's felony gun possession.

The dad's response was "we have to do something about the gun show loophole" which he says caused the problem. I pointed out that the gunshow loophole had nothing to do with a convicted felon buying a stolen 9 off the street, and why should I pay the price of loss of my rights for his kid's mental illness.

The problem is that the dad's take on the matter is what I am afraid has become the majority opinion in the country. I don't like what I see in the future, but like King, I'm old anyway...Geo

Sorry for the rant.

We're living in a mixed economy. All business feeds at the public trough, one way or another. The US is as much a command economy as China's, both taking orders from their leaders of where, when and how they will do business. It reached a point weeks ago that the US president was rebuked by the chairman of the Federal Reserve that money policy wouldn't be changed to suit partisan political interests. We're all socialists now!
