We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth? Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.

I've got plenty of Winchesters, Savages & Rugers but not a single remington centerfire rifle. Something clever here.

They have a policy of not accepting returns of firearms, once they leave the store. They accepted my return of this one though. Damn thing wouldn't feed a cartridge, the manager took it back with apologies. And this whole "best-selling in the world" crap is ridiculous. The best-selling automobile for many years running has been the Ford F-series truck. That hardly makes it the "best." A wise man is frequently humbled.

Yep, M40A1's Runny stuff that sniper rifle bedding business. It's a whole different ballgame all together. A whole different world from my little DIY M77 bedding post here. Something clever here.

And I've been looking for an excuse to pick one up for quite a while. I's going to have to be something interesting though, something off the used rack.... Actually I guess I could go for a new 17 fireball, damn it. I was pretty sure when I woke up this morning that I didn't need anymore guns... I'm always wrong about that. Something clever here.

All the Marines do to make it better is strap on a Bushnell and an upside down montana and sling they are good to go. Something clever here.
