Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff
Back when this discussion started I stated that I had read in multiple sources that he shot first and asked for news sources that stated the ATF fired first. So far no one has. He knew he was facing a lot of federal firearms charges and decided to start a fire fight and he lost. Or as some would say...

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff
I can only conclude that those rushing to defense of the ATF in this instance have not bothered to read the post above, which explains the uber-aggressive (my interpretation) actions advocated and executed by the current administration with regard to gun-sales transactions by both individuals and F...

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff
You break a civil law and you lose your civil rights - this was not an ordinary citizen when 6 of the weapons that he sold were used in the commission of a crime. Sad how it came down but IMO this was not killing a citizen who chose to follow the constitutional rights to bear and keep arms. He was ...

Re: THE OFFICIAL AAPK WEATHER THREAD - HOWS YOUR WEATHER TODAY ?
It is just warm enough that the forecasted snow is rain. Started about 3 pm and will likely continue most of tomorrow. We need it bad cuz we had very little snow all winter.

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff
The various news sources I read stated that Malinowski fired shots at the ATF agents first. Why wouldn’t the agents return fire? What were they supposed to do? I doubt saying, Please don’t shoot at us would have done anything. Do you own a gun ? If you do and the door to your house was smashed in b...

It’s been on a yo-yo here in NW Iowa for the past several months. Lowest 2.52, highest 3.39. Sometimes changes more than once in a day. Yesterday most stations were 3.04.

Re: Guns & Gun Related Stuff
Being you all are showing off your little J frames, here is mine. 360j Airweight. It is chambered for .357mag but no thanks, won’t be doing that. Got it in a pawnshop in Prescott Valley, AZ. when I was on vacation a couple of years ago. With my FFL I was able to take it with me.

Re: First Cup Diner!
I really miss all the venison I used to get. 15-30 years ago I rarely bought beef. The Iowa deer population was very high and one could tag 4-6 each year. Myself and most of my hunting buddies have “aged out” of the hunt. I had to give it up 8 years ago. Treefarmer, everything you said about the han...

I was at a show earlier today and a little S&W model 60 called my name from across the aisle. I just couldn't walk away without it. Some of you who are more familiar with this model, can I use +P ammo in it? Ray It appears to be one of the newer models with the slightly longer cylinder, stainle...

I probably shouldn't say this but that's never stopped before.I can't choke down venison. The taste gags me. Just one person's opinion. And yes, I've tried it several times over the years in several places I've tried it thinking this time it's going to be okay. Nope. Have at it. Go ahead and kick m...

Warming back up today, 50’s again. But windy, at least is a south wind but with red flag fire warnings. Been struggling with dizzy spells this week, ok so far this morning. Hope it stays that way.
