    .357/.38 Henry All Weather Carbine

    Around June we moved from Texas to Colorado. Not long before we moved two thieves stole my brand new Henry .357 rifle from my truck. I waited for 6 months to hear news of my guns and other items that were also stolen but have about given up on getting any of them back. So, I scraped up the...

    Test of my Christian metal

    After years of looking for it all over Texas I had finally found THE firearm I had been looking for at a price I felt reasonable to pay. A Henry All Weather .357/.38 Stainless Steel with Black Walnut stock. Took it out to the range this past weekend and it shot amazingly. The range gunsmith...

    New Taurus .357 magnum Tracker

    I just bought a .357 Magnum Tracker for hiking in Colorado. I had the model 66 with a 4in barrel but decided I needed something with a bit more reach. The Tracker has a 6.5" ported barrel but I had no idea how well it would shoot at any distance. Well, I took the wife out and she first shot...

    3D Modeling for Accuracy 3DMAX

    I was just wondering if there is anybody on here who works in 3D modeling, specifically AutoCAD and 3DS Max that might want to discuss techniques and compare tools?

    If you had to pick one of each for a friends bugout bag?

    O.K., it is time to populate our bug-out bags. You know what you will carry in yours but a family friend has an emergency so they hand you a credit card and ask you to please help them by building a bug out bag for him/her and their family. Within reason there is no limit to what you can...

    New Guns

    This weekend I picked up a .17 HMR from Rossi just so I would have the caliber to play with and see if it was all that they say it is. I am limited to 100 yards with my .22 magnum and thought why not see if it is worthwhile to reach out to 200 or so yards since I am moving to Colorado soon...

    Food for thought..., what do you think of this?

    Just a thought. And then in retrospect I realized that my journey was one that does not need to be made. The Bible is the source of our understanding of God and does not need any greater definition of how we got here and of faith. Faith arrived without logic, survives without reason, and is...

    Ruger PC9 Carbine

    I went from the AR platform to this rifle type because of the leftist angst over pistol grips and in spite of our right to own what we want at least I won't need to worry about them with this carbine. In addition to having the same performance as the AR platform you get a suppressor ready...

    Reloading/Handloading (Interested?)

    I wonder if it would be worthwhile to post a Reloading/Handloading page??? I have been doing it for a few years and although prices have gone down recently it won't last forever. Once you learn the particulars you can do things others don't think of. For example, my Mossberg Patriot is .308...

    Twist Rate

    If you are looking for general plinking your AR might do well with any 55 grain off the shelf bullet. However, if you are looking for heavier hunting rounds you should know what your twist rate is and match the bullet weight with the twist rate. There are other factors, but if your AR is not...

    The 10 Red Heifer born in Israel

    This just came to my attention: (I edited it a little from NY Post and others for brevity and did a little bit of my own research) Last Tuesday an entirely red female calf was born, paving the way for re-establishing the Temple service. (Building the Third Temple) The red heifer is described in...

    My BIGGEST fear

    1. I die tomorrow and my wife sells all of my guns for what I told her they cost. 2. I die tomorrow and my wife finds out how much ammo I really have hidden away. 3. I don't die tomorrow and my wife asks me both questions point blank..., 'cause I have to tell the truth.

    30AS vs 336 in .30-30

    O.K. lever gunners, I walked into Believers Pawn the other day and there on the shelf was a Marlin 30AS at about 87-90% outward. Innards a little dirty but not bad in terms of wear. So I plop down my first installment and leave feeling pretty good. A week later I have a little extra cash so I...

    Have you considered that addiction = slavery?

    We know that addictions are more deeply rooted in some than in others. But have you ever considered that being a servant to your physical desires is really no different than being a true slave or being in a physical prison? Who can deny that addiction is all about control and at the root of...

    What about those "experts" in Christian theology?

    We are the Bereans class, meaning we men adhere to the attitude of the Bereans in Acts 17, committing ourselves to "searching the scriptures daily." Today our class was slightly disrupted as the teachers for another class were out on various calls of service so our teacher was asked to fill in...

    Firearms, GPS, Night Imaging and Prepping

    I have seen a lot of new gun owners purchasing firearms for their go bags and other prepping setups and just want to add a piece of info that some do not seem cognizant of. Electronic and digital GPS and sighting systems such as night scopes, red dot's, holographic, thermal imaging, and like...

    .22 Henry Lever Action .22LR/L/Short

    I have a lot of guns. 5 .22 rifles, all different sizes and shapes. I was thinking of selling three and getting the .22 Henry because I can scope it, and because I can shoot LR/L/Short without having to manually load or worry about cycling. Anybody have experience with one?

    What if semi-auto firearms were outlawed?

    Looking at my array of SA's one day I pondered this question. What would I do if there was a sudden turn of events and we awoke one day to discover that all semi-auto's were outlawed. There might be something a civil skirmish but I really doubt a true war would ensue. And that would leave me...

    Defending the Right to Keep and Bear Arms in America

    I hear people declare that the MMSR (Modern Modular Sporting Rifle) is used for one thing only and that is to kill people. Well, I use mine with a night scope to hunt hogs and varmints that need thinning out such as coyotes (both kill calves and fawns and have been known to attack them while...
