My custom made .62 caliber flintlock. The second picture really shows off the beauty of the bird-eye maple stock. The pistol is .40 caliber, made for me by a local gunmaker.
Shots being fired has been mentioned as the reason for the cops being there. I have to ask, where in North Carolina is there an area where shots are not being fired? In the little town I live in in NYS, there are shots fired at any time of the day and night. I was walking my dogs when I got off...
So a child, unknowingly dropping a bag of candy, even after a parent pick it up, is an arrestable offense. Interesting, sad, and a remarkable indictment of our legal system and law enforcement. My 89 year of father was a victim of a violent home invasion last summer, and got his jaw broken. The...
From what I understand, the little girl dropped a bag of candy. The homeowner came out and said something about picking up the bag, the mother did so and they were going on their way. Hardly what I would call littering, nor something I would consider an arrestable offense.
With all you come into contact with? Spare me. I tended bar for years in a place frequented by cops, mostly NYSP and NYPD. The only reason most of them aren't in prison is because they are cops.
I don't know where you live, but the last time I was at Fur, Fin and Feather, a gunshop in LIvingston Many, Sullivan County , NY, he had a Rossi just like what you are looking for. I do not remember the price, though.
I used to work for a pest control company. You would be surprised and sickened at the amount of restaurants in the Hudson Valley, especially Chinese restaurants, are as bad if not worse.
Have a stovepipe or any other failure to feed. You have to drop your magazine to clear the weapon. Would you rather have a spare, or reuse the mag that is most likely somewhere n the ground? I always have a spare mag, and keep it in my left back pocket. I have ever needed it? Not yet. Have I...
I look all the time. I tend bar for a living, and it amazes me how many guys have no problem carrying a pistol and then getting trashed at the bar. That includes regular Joe's, off duty cops and thugs. It is usually pretty easy to see if someone is carrying. Just watch for odd bulges, bulges...
The troopers around here do this to just about everybody on a bike they pull over. If I have a multi-tool on my belt, they let that go. I have even seen them tow and impound bikes of guys who were not wearing DOT approved helmets.
My every day carry knife is a cheap folder I bought at the local gas station, for $9.99. I have had so many nice folders, Case Buck, Schrade and Puma, taken from my by the troopers at motorcycle checkpoints I refuse to "donate" quality knives to them anymore.
