      No Compromise

      I completely understand that the founding fathers made comments like the one in the graphic. I was looking for some other source that attributed that exact quote to George Washington.

      No Compromise

      I reposted this on Facebook. Its legitimacy is being called into question. Does anyone know if there is any substantiation to the claim that he said this?

      Draft of letter to our legislators

      Perhaps it won't be read; perhaps it will be read. If enough people show they they understand these concepts, and the reasons why they hold our legislators responsible for their (in)actions, then we will be heard eventually.

      Draft of letter to our legislators

      I have been drafting a letter to our legislators. I am submitting it here for comment. You have my permission to use it as your own letter, and to make any modifications that you would like to make. Distribute it freely; I would like to see it uses by as many people as possible, and I would...

      2A and Constitution perspective flawed?

      That's absolutely true. However, people nearly always portray it from the wrong perspective. If people really understood this, we would not have the usual debate of the meaning of the second amendment. Even our president talks about the rights that the second amendment provides. It's unnerving.

      Gun control - politicians are neither stupid nor ignorant

      Everyone here is an enthusiast of freedom, and we are also enthusiastic about our natural right to self defense, which includes the right to keep and bear arms. We all also know that gun control doesn't work, or the cities with the strongest and strictest gun control laws would be the safest...

      2A and Constitution perspective flawed?

      Thanks for the support! I would really like to see this attitude adopted as the general belief, rather than how things are normally portrayed. The perspective of any amendment providing a right (and thus being open to interpretation) is of grave danger for all of our natural rights.

      2A and Constitution perspective flawed?

      I am a staunch and unshakable believer in our natural right to keep and bear arms. This is something that is fundamental to a free human existence. As individuals, if we have the right to live (not be murdered), then the right to keep and bear arms is essential. I am often dismayed at the...

      PERMIT APPLICATION RETURNED

      None of us like the laws that deny us an unalienable right, but I didn't think that the review board was very condescending. The issue at those meetings wasn't to evaluate or interpret the second amendment, but to enforce the law by reviewing the applicant's need. I'm sure that my comment...

      7 day wait

      The idea of a cool-down period becomes silly at best when you already own a firearm. I understand that it could very well be an outdated law that predates the electronic information age, but many people refer to it as the cool-down period.

      Unclear about .308 even after searching

      What an arbitrary regulation! The .308 is a lot more of a round. Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

      What about http://cmmginc.secure-mall.com/item/Mk3-308-Lower-Receiver-1826 ? I don't know what makes it AR-10 or not, to be honest. :)

      AR Lower- Which forged would you buy?

      I love CMMG stuff!

      AR Lower- Which forged would you buy?

      I had great luck with PSA. I think they have excellent quality for their price.

      Completed my first lower build (w/pics)

      That sounds like a great plan. I am sure that you will be pleased with PSA! Instead of an expensive/upgraded lower parts kit, you'll probably enjoy some sort of red dot optic much more.
