Mine's an octagon reciever rebarelled by Sako in 1970, the last year they built them. Awesome rifle at any price. For what I paid it's absurdly great. Nice wood even.

Typically for years. It will be a Social War. Such wars are based far more on the passions than upon a political ideal. The Civil War was in the main political in nature, i.e. a central government vs. a confederation of States.

Agree, Completely!!

We are NOT in a "Civil War;" we are in a Time of "Civil Upheaval!!"

Americans "WELL & TRULY REMEMBER" "9/11;" we need NO FURTHER MOTIVATION to Institute a "War on Terror!"

"Political Operatives" trying to use our Current "War" are SADLY "OFF-BASE"-- trying to create political issues concerning our current "War on Terror."

The American People Aren't stupid; WE KNOW who our "Allies" are--& Who we cannot trust.

America KNOWS that we are largely, "on our own" in this fight; we will have some help from our "traditional, English-speaking Allies," but we MUST FIGHT the "Psychopathic Islamic Radicals" MOSTLY ON OUR OWN.

SO BE IT; WE are the better, more Civilized, more Peaceful, more Worthy Culture!

"W" was RIGHT; "Bring IT ON!!!;" we are in a "Fight to the Finish--a Fight we MUST WIN!!

A Sneak! Yep, they were built for *Special Purposes* by the Finns, who hadn't quite forgetten all the neat features of the M91 as reworked by Harry Manser. And your late M39 has the .311 bore and D-chamber that allows the use of USSR-/Warsaw Pact standard ammunition. My old 28-30s have .308 bores and use any good .308 bullet, usually a handloading proposition in the 7,62x53r case.

It's tougher to accomplish without the time machine, but I'm giving it a shot.

Me too, please.

Thanks.

" Are the issue dividing left and right more severe than those in the 60s around the time of Vietnam?"

I think that a few factors are at work that didn't really come into play in the 60's.

For one thing, the left has gained a near stanglehold on the news media, the entertainment media, education, and the government itself. There has been 40 years of indoctrination and acceptance of it by many in this country. The respect for the rights of the individual are at an all time low - it's all about class and race and orientation now. Groupism and class envy are the watchwords of the day.

Those of us on the right who still value these things are more aware of the threat to our way of life and will not suffer the abuse much longer. If it is delayed much longer, resistance will be futile (yeah, yeah - it's a movie line). The longer the minds of our young are in their hands, the fewer there will be who will even know or care about the America we love and won't fight for it.

"Do you know of any other books about the 'second civil war' which are up to the minute in their history, including 9-11, the Beltway Sniper, the Patriot Acts? If you do, I'd like to hear about them."

Just the ones that are vanity published.

[Travis McGee]

Sounds like you are in the publishing industry, one of those agent-groupies who thinks it's still 1968 on 5th Avenue, and computers have not been invented. Good luck with the buggy whip sales, but I don't have 3 years to knee crawl through Manhatten fellating every literary agent in sight. Some folks do enjoy that, but I don't have time.

Please add me to your list. Thanks.

You've been added, and you're very welcome.
