Re: Why exactly do YOU support the NRA? (If you do)

Good conversation. To end: I would not turn in my guns willingly because I do not trust the government nor do I trust anyone except family and close friends. I certainly would not turn anyone in who did not give up her/his guns. My comments about giving up guns were theoretical. My point is that I a...

Re: Why exactly do YOU support the NRA? (If you do)

Thank you all for the thoughts and ideas. I wrote my original post knowing that it would be provocative. I anticipated some negative comments. That happened. I hoped that someone would read, consider, and respond without judgment. dellet, rebel, and others did just that. I always think of the second...

Re: Why exactly do YOU support the NRA? (If you do)

Quite a lively discussion so far. I do enjoy the movie "Polly Anna." Doesn't she end up paralyzed? Maybe she gets better in the end. My kids really enjoy that one as well. Anyway, I do need a scholarly lesson on the constitution and in particular the second amendment. I do not understand h...

Re: Why exactly do YOU support the NRA? (If you do)

I enjoy firearms of many types, but I do not support the NRA. I simply feel that the views of the organization are too extreme. You will understand my perspective better when I tell you that I do not believe in the 2nd amendment. I am not part of a well-regulated militia. I am not well trained. I ha...

Re: suppressor came loose this weekend

I grab the suppressor with a rag and tighten it after each magazine. Works for me.

Re: Forming brass

I posted the OPs question somewhat recently. A few folks wrote back stating that I should just buy brass. I felt a little offended (but they were right). I enjoyed the challenge but I spent too much on the saw and jig and it took me too much time. In the future, I will buy brass for my 300blk handlo...

small rifle vs. small rifle magnum primers

Sorry, I have tried to search this one and have not been successful. I am ready to try my first 300 blackout handloads with 220g bullets and 10g of IMR 4227. I have CCI 400 small rifle primers from reloading .223. When I plug my data into the hogdon site it lists the magnum primer. I would rather us...
