Just so happens I'm having dinner tonight with an old friend who flew over the pond on business. She knows I carry via CHL and is just beside herself.

Last visit, her hotel was, oh about 150 yards or so from the place we were eating....in a bad part of town. She sezz, no need for you to walk me to my room. I told her...uh, yes. This is not a great area. She was oblivious to her surroundings. Had no idea a woman walking this distance at night would have made her a target.

She had an armed escort. lol

People in the UK must have the collective IQ of turnips.

Muslims are being brought in by the gazillions to slaughter them, and the limeys just can't get their necks on the chopping blocks fast enough.

Suicidal idiots, the whole British population, obviously including the Scots. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

He wasn’t told who the complainant was.

Actually it was three cops, one came with his tricked out AR-15. Good enough for them, good enough for me.

I can’t complain about that. If the pansy said there were people playing with guns, I’d do the same.

Our local department seems to generally follow the protect and serve model. The couple interactions I’ve had with them have been brief and professional.

The cowardice in this room is staggering.

They no doubt did this just before the Brexit vote to emotionally remind the Scots that they have become a broken, frightened, cowardly people, and so should vote against their own independence.

I live in a rather rural part of North Georgia. From time to time I hear a fully automatic gun of some sort being fired by one of my neighbors. It puts a smile on my face every time I hear it.

But squirrels have something that the Scots seemed to have lost.

Some of the more expensive ones are capable of being used for hunting.

There's a couple of PCP's I'd like to buy that are on the low end of the cost spectrum but they're still over $1,000. That's just the rifle, then there's the scope and mounts, the fill tanks and their respective hardware. Probably close to $2,000 when you're done.

When the SHTF? Those neighbors are already informers by virtue of calling the police already.

detuned for the U.K. market.

That's sad since the manufacturer of one of the best line air rifles in the world, Daystate, is in England

Yes that’s true.
But we’re chided by our betters, “That’s ridiculously paranoid, such a thing could never happen again!”
