Re: Lessons from Ukraine

Can you imagine your city/town/home bombed and you have to go someplace for food and shelter? Unlike Europe, the chances of a US state being bombed is pretty slim. Any problem we are likely to encounter would be local or regional and help would pour in from surrounding states. So, no I can't imagin...

Re: Lessons from Ukraine

Ukraine is small country (smaller than the state of Texas) and a completely different (peasant) culture than in the US.

I've seen people carrying things and at the same time pulling a milk crate behind them with stuff in it. 2. Backpacks - some children had their; probably for books but the adu...

Re: So...how about those gas prices!

It is amazing how fast gas prices go up when something happens in a oil producing nation. Even when it dosn't effect how much oil is in the system. Funny thing, we have literally more oil than any other nation than the middle east. Good old democrats shut it down going all in on "Green" E...

Re: My new pistol won't shoot...

Is it the bullet?

That bullet looks a bit too far into the case.

Also, is that a reload? There are striations on the case.

Again, maybe it wasn't crimped properly.
