Hey, thanks all for the kind welcome. Much appreciated.

Greetings. My name is Dave, and I come from the Talk Firearms site that was recently closed down. Not sure what happened yet, but it's somewhat disconcerting to not being "in the know" as I was a mod there. I guess that's another topic of discussion. I originally started with the Admin/mod...

Welcome!

Wow, I had not heard this. No news watching last night, and this was my first stop online this morning. @686 good luck to your daughter.

Shoot, in all honesty, I've probably met more celebrities (mainly) than I can think of from working in Los Angeles for 34 years. Being in the FD afforded all sorts of different opportunities to meet folks at functions and within the community while working. I'm not enamored by them by any...

Welcome to the Forum. Enjoy your stay.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum. :green man:

You'll fit in quite nicely here. Welcome.

Actually, no. "Well regulated," as used back in the day, does not mean what you seem to think it does. It has nothing to do with regulations (being bound by rules imposed by a government). Instead, "well regulated" was used to describe something that was organized/prepared/properly...

Hmmm. Was George Mason a lawyer? I don't know...maybe he was. The quote attributed to George Mason is seemingly pretty accurate. (The quote specific is the fourth one from the top on the linked page below). http://econfaculty.gmu.edu/wew/quotes/arms.html I really didn't want to drag this...

@Ten ese I know this thread was done in advance of a dedicated subforum. Well, you've now got the subforum for all 2A related topics. Have fun with it!

Not meaning to hijack, but @Oldhand , where are you at in Tucson? My folks are in Saddlebrooke, and I love shooting at the Tucson Trap and Skeet Club when I visit. Hijack "off." :D

If you're saying the militia, as referenced in the 2A is the National Guard and military reserves, I respectfully disagree. If you mean something else, then I have a hard time figuring how I was mistaken with my first post. Two citations from the website I linked (emphasis added): "George...

Unfortunately, as much as I like the "bit," I don't agree with them believing that the "militia" is a foe of the "people." The militia IS the people, and it needs to exist to fend off a government military and/or a tyrannical government. Here's a pretty decent read on how the 2A breaks down...

That looks like some good info...thanks. If I recall correctly, another member here, @BuzzinSATX , uses buckets in his garden, and I think it was pretty successful. We typically do tomatoes and jalapenos, but that's about it. But, we are in an area where rats are a problem, and they end up...

Thanks Bob. Hopefully, he'll do an introduction.

Welcome to the forum. I see you are member #127. I wonder who #126 is, as I missed it? :confused; Thanks for jumping in. Kick your shoes off and enjoy your time here.

Sorry to see the news. Hoping the best for your family and his.
