I really think it is too bad that congress can’t take away his citizenship and deport him to someplace else after the election-I heard that happened to some mafia types in the past...

Shot xshubs FNS 9 mm a few times. Took a gun safety class last weekend and shot a few diff things, I really liked the hk vp 9 so that’s what he got. Gunprepper.com had great deals. I do want to go often I really loved it.

Welcome to the club. :)

Something tells me you won’t be setting up a bench to load our own any time soon, though. LOL.

Good stuff.

Wish I could have had my daughters more involved at a younger age, but with the divorce, I had to play super careful with their mom and her extremely nasty ways.

I’ll be out in Pittsburgh in a couple weeks.
