Ditto, plus some weird story about a 59-year-old German woman who had a pencil removed from her head.

wherever you got the link from truncated it, do a copy link location on it and replace it

Yep, that's it.

Nice to see an unbiased, nonjudgmental, essay on some 'normal' gun owners.

Pretty interesting. Still reinforces the notion that most gun owners are white males.

A guy who posts on another forum I post in was featured in that book, coffee table covered in full autos and silencers... pretty neat if you ask me.

see, this man deserves a pulitzer! not all gun owners are uneducated psychopaths. you do have people like me that kinda take it overboard a bit, but for the most part our shoots are dominated by the politest and most civil people a fella could ask for.

hehehe

That was excellent. Noticed that a lot of the ladies were like most, hated guns and had no interest in them. Then one day, someone took them to the range and guess what, they liked it. Now they're hooked. Some of the most fun I have is shooting the .22s with the wife and kids.

Didn't look at them all, but suprised with News weak (ugh) Newsweek... Remember that the election is coming and they are trying to gauge support. Nice to know that there are more of us good people out there than what the media and politicians give us credit for.

Come on now it's MSNBC. And I think only LEGAL gun owners don't mind filling out a poll about gun ownership

I liked it, basically. Anything that comes from the mainstream media and doesn't portray gun owners as Bill Murray's character in Caddyshack is generally a relief.

"licensed to kill gophers, by the gubberment of the United Nations...."

My gf is sad because I sold my .22 conversion for the CZ-75. Maybe I'll pick up a P22... and a TAC-65

That was some great press, we need more of this.

I saw that book at Borders last week, went back yesterday to buy it, and had to special order it.

I love that movie....

Let me throw this out there............in reference to right-to-carry here.....

Who would be interested in making something like this specifically for Maryland? How hard could it really be? A picture, and a recorded testimony."This is who I am, and this is why I want RTC......". Put them together, put it on CD. I don't know if it could be submitted as testimony at the bill hearings but I'd pitch in for a hundred CDs to send to our fine representatives.

 

[redblair]

Hey there I'm new here but I ordered the book from Amazon for myself and a buddy. It's great. I highly recomend it. Lots of very cool pictures and not too many of them irritating words.

This wouldn't be to hard to do. Maybe even do a self recording, send them in to a single source to edit, post it on Youtube.

If I had the skill, or time, I would volunteer.
