    Moscow shootings

    True, but a boat ride across the Black Sea puts you on the shores of Georgia, and only a short land crossing back to Chechnya. I have no answers. I'm just speculating like the rest of everyone here. All I'm saying is it resembles the action in 2002.

    Moscow shootings

    I can't help but think this has something to do with Chechnya. Formerly the Chechen Republic, it is a muslim country that was under Soviet rule for many, many years. The Chechens hated the Russians then, and that hatred hasn't faded. ☆IF☆ some Chechen rebels did this, they very well may...

    BREAKING: Texas can arrest and deport illegal aliens

    I would love to see a giant catapult erected right at the edge of the Rio....deport them one at a time, put it on pay-per-view in 2 hour increments. Raise $$$ to fund the effort and get the job done all at the same time. Not to mention the obvious deterrent factor it would provide.

    F/S Elite Energy 32 compound bow

    I located the original paperwork for this bow. It's set up with a 27½" draw. Draw lengths are easily changed by replacing the cam modules. I also failed to mention that this is a right hand bow. Sorry lefties !

    F/S Elite Energy 32 compound bow

    Yes, made in Henrietta. ( Rochester ). I failed to mention it has a whisker biscuit arrow rest and an 3-pin sight with illuminated pins. It's set up very nicely for hunting, and launches arrows at about 330 fps, so it shoots flat. And did I mention how quiet it is ? Amazing.

    F/S Elite Energy 32 compound bow

    Several years ago I bought this Elite Energy 32 compound bow, and about two weeks later I injured my shoulder. My shoulder is never going to heal enough to allow me to use this bow again. Too bad, because the bow is absolutely spectacular to shoot and I always enjoyed archery. This bow is a...

    That sounds nice, but I don't think the vast majority of the current population is up to the task of rebellion.

    As for the OP, I stand by my assessment that he is an agent provocateur. He's not very good at it, but he's trying. OP: One question for you, is this the first time you've joined NYGF or have you been here before, perhaps under the screen name Ronstar ?

    Civil War

    Uhh.....what movie ? This is basically the way I see things happening. Major event. Government overreach legislation. Martial law declared. Population centers become absolute lawlessness. Rural areas loosely organize to resist. Military eventually crushes all major resistance. World...

    Civil War

    Ok, so this is how I see it going down. There will be an event big enough to shock a good portion of the country into a hysterical reaction. The left especially, but ALL the deep state and one world government type politicians will join forces to propose some major freedom curtailing...

    Anybody ever converted a Walther PPK/S to a different caliber?

    Stop by some evening and I'll let you try a .380 mag in your gun. Better yet, why don't you just buy my stainless PPK from me ? Then you'd have a matching set ! It's been sitting in the safe unused since the early 90's. I have 4 factory magazines, about 6 holsters, and whatever ammo is on...

    Anybody ever converted a Walther PPK/S to a different caliber?

    I would have to believe that there are very few parts that are interchangeable between the rimfire and the centerfire PPK series of pistols. Nearly every part would need to be changed in order to convert it from .22 rimfire to .380 auto. Probably the sights are interchangeable, but not much...

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    I went for a long slow walk in the woods today, the first since before my surgery. It felt good to walk around out there. I found one shed antler, and most of the remains of a deer that had been stripped clean by coyotes. The skull was not among the rest of the bones and skin. I also found...

    Ongoing PAY IT FORWARD thread 2021 Version

    I can't find any evidence that they're NOT factory loads, so I would say they are factory. The box was included in some other stuff I bought from one of the guys at my club. I know he reloaded shotshells, but I don't think he reloaded any metallic cartridges. He barely shot anything other...

    Stupid question its ok to leave CLP residue on gun right?

    CLP ... Clean, Lubricate, Protect. Yes, it's fine to leave a layer of it on your gat. Just be careful that it doesn't soak into a wooden stock or grips. If left in contact with wood finishes long enough, it may damage the finish as well. But as far as the metal parts, it's all good.

    Hello from Rochester

    Who said anything about which end was the "good" end ? Not me. As far as I'm concerned, everything east of Ripley is the asshole of New England. While the Rotten Apple and it's outer suburbs known as New Jersey are worse than the other areas you mentioned, Syracuse, Rochester and...

    Need recommendation for a cheek riser

    ^^^ this. First thing that comes to mind is, Do you need a higher comb, or do you need shorter rings ? Most stocks are pretty well set so that your eye aligns with a properly mounted scope. Not always, but most of the time. Maybe you're part horse and have a long face or maybe you're a...

    Political Picture thread. (humor/memes/etc)

    The only real problem with gold and silver is, it relies upon the "bigger idiot" theory. That being there will always be someone willing to give you more than what you paid for it. But, the fact remains that you cannot eat it, it will not provide you shelter, it does not generate heat or...

    Ruger RPR Rimfire

    I bought an RPR last spring and I mounted a Vortex Diamondback 4-16x42 on it. I tested over 30 flavors of ammo through it from 50 yards. Bipod front, snadbag rear from a solid bench. 10 rounds each type of ammo. The results were eye opening to say the least. The groups ranged from...

    I may be wrong about him being a Fed. After reading his other threads where he wants us all to tell what is in store for home invaders and post pictures, and him posting that he wants to buy certain types of arms, I'm inclined to believe he's more likely one of the Purple Tie Brigade here to...

    Grain scale

    I have a PACT electronic scale that is excellent, as well as an RCBS chargemaster. I frequently check one scale against the other and have yet to find a discrepancy. The thing is, electronic scales need to be turned on and left alone for at least 20-30 minutes for the load cells to get hot...

    During all of 2020 and 2021, I was liberating primers from Canada. I used to deliver to a gun shop up there, and every time I did, I would purchase 1 or 2 cases of primers. I would smuggle them back into the US and supply my friends. Some of them I would sell for a reasonable profit. I...
