We are done waiting for somebody to do something. FReeper Display of Arms and Bearers is sending fascists of all kind a message: We are armed. We are training. We will defend each other. Commit to visit your firing range once a month, take pictures and videos and post results here starting now and on the first of each month. To receive a monthly reminder, ask to be added to the list. Use this thread to network and coordinate target practice with other FReepers. Selfies are good. Larger group photos are better and send a stronger message. If you can not upload pictures and videos, email them to FReeper Display of Arms and Bearers @ ConservativeImage.com (no spaces) and I will host them for you.
Rules of this thread:
- This is not a jokes board. You will not be censored, but please be aware there is a world wide perception that American gun owners are all drunk and reckless. Disprove this stereotype by contributing to this monthly thread with all seriousness and sobriety. Do not horseplay with guns.
- Do not publish personal information such as email addresses, phone numbers, license plates, home addresses, etc. Use private email to arrange meetings with other members. Posting first name and general location is acceptable.
- One month recent photo only. Please try to date stamp for the record.
- If you want to keep your identity or specific weapon make unknown, then only photograph your target results noting distance and general weapon type - rifle, handgun, bow and arrow, sling shot, etc.
- A deadly weapon may only be used to prevent the loss of life, property or for the purposes of target practice or hunting. The blandishment of a firearm is neither a determent or a valid threat.
Arm yourselves. The hopes and changes are coming.
You do know that publishing a picture of your face is pretty much the same as posting your name, drivers license number, height, weight, home address etc. don't you? Are you aware that software readily available to government agencies (and others) can match your face against databases of facial images - like the one which has a copy of that photo on your drivers license?
So what are you doing online that you're afraid of getting in trouble for?
In the shadow of the Paris massacre, do you realize how afraid we Americans are all sounding here now? The least I've asked for is to share target practice results.

I post the thread. I make the rules, mushysnugglebites.
I didn’t say I was afraid of anything. Just pointing out something many people don’t know. I’ve been on the internet since 1991 and have never felt the need to hide. But I am aware of the facts.
I said nobody has to. I do it because it sends a stronger message. I am not afraid of the government or anybody. If I have to die or go to jail for defending myself or my neighbor, I do not care. In comparing the brazenness of federal fascists and religious extremists to your reluctance to display any evidence of an ability to defend yourself is disappointing.
The people on this play smart. We know we have each other's backs and don't need some silly declaration thread. Peddle it elsewhere, Francis.
New rule that you might need to know about boss.
And I will be back in two weeks with another thread and photos.
What you do NOW might be illegal in the FUTURE.
Hmmm. Yeah, the Yugoslav army seemed to have an abundance of cosmoline on hand. *sigh* I was hoping for something easy. Those kinds of chemical wrack my lungs anymore.
And I will be back in two weeks with another thread and photos.
I won’t be there.
Or perhaps not.
Cosmoline’s only virtue is that it stops time indefinitely.
I used a fridge condenser brush to scrub the ookum out of the stock slots. Soaked the metal parts in thinner. Ran the bore with a steel .30 cal rod.
Took a month for the turpentiny smell to go away but it’s a nice piece. Best quality of all SKS’s in my opinion.
That sounds like someone who is not thinking clearly. Wouldn't it be better, for instance, to continue as a living, free man after you defended yourself or your neighbor? Why would anyone who is thinking clearly say that they didn't care about living, or going to jail?
That's the kind of thinking that level headed patriots want nothing to do with. And its the kind of thinking and message that falls right into the playbook of the gun control crowd.
Those boots were made for walkin’!
;^)
Now you've done it. You've punched a gigantic hole in lil' General Huffn Puff's thread rules.
The mind is the weapon. Everything else a tool.
If you want the government to know everything you own and do, then please post it on public forums, not all of us are stupid enough to let the government know every thing we do.
You need to live and learn!
I don’t have to organize with just FReepers...it’s helpful, but not mandatory.
You’re asking people, relatively anonymous people, to post information about themselves that they may or may not be comfortable posting.
As before, those who need to know, will know...if and when the time comes. I have many acquaintances and friends outside of FR who share many of the same concerns we here on FR do.
Just because I’m not sharing anything with you, doesn’t mean I’m not taking any precautions or making preparations.
