In case anyone is interested I know of two Wilson pistols for sale with the following characteristics: Protector Two-Tone -serrated top of slide -checkered...
The NRA blows it again: www.nytimes.com/2005/08/03/national/03guns.html. Where is the logic in thinking that gun owners' rights can be protected by violating...
... Errrrr.... could it be that they are thinking that it's not a "gun owners' rights" issue at all but instead a general property rights issue? My question...
... can't ... Yes, in the same way that you can prohibit semi's from parking in your lot. I think the owners of private property have the right to dictate what...
Semi's can be prohibited from parking on a lot because mainly the lots are not designed to handle them, parked OR in motion. As for dictating what the CONTENT...
Under the theory of rights that inspired the founding fathers and framers of the Constitution--namely, John Locke's theory--a property owner has the right to...
Have to agree with you there. P[rivate property is exactly that PRIVATE. It's like telling everyone that owns a house that they have to join a poa or some ...
Just because I bring my car into your parking lot does not make it your car. To try and ban me from carrying a gun in my car says that I cant protect my self...
"They have this POWER because no one has successfully challenged it" "Rights are rights whether the government recognizes them or not" I don't believe that...
Luckily the Supreme Court disagreed with you and has held that our Rights as enumerated in the Bill of Rights existed prior to, and independant of, that or any...
... not make it your car. ... that I cant protect my self going to or coming home from work...What kind of left-wing crap is this. No one said the car belongs...
Exactly. We are "endowed with certain inalienable rights by our Creator" (not Uncle Sam, the Democratic Party, or anyone else). Does this language sound...
Well Sheldon, It seems that you support a ban on a gun in MY car, what would you liked to ban next? The state of Arkansas has no problem with me having a gun...
Hi! I'm writing a mystery novel set in Oklahoma in 1935. The plot turns on the use of a particular rifle and very special and unique ammunition. I haven't been...

What ever happened to common sense? I won't go into any public place with a gun if its posted that firearms aren't allowed. Same goes for Pulic Parks here...
... Don't get me wrong, I wasn't trying to stir up anything up or "wiggle on property rights". I guess part of my confusion stems from the fact that the Police...
... Rights as enumerated in the Bill of Rights existed prior to, and independant of, that or any other document. This is the same Supreme Court that ruled that...
The German rifle used in The Great War was the Mauser Mod. 98, in caliber 8x57mm. Google Mauser gewehr 98 and you will get more information than you can deal...
But this really illustrates my point: You can say you have a God-given right, but if the government uses its power to compel to keep you from exercising that...
No. What it illustrates is that what you don't have any longer is freedom. States were enabled by the Constitutions to recognised additional freedoms above and...
Unfortunately not - though each holds the same power. The members of the first did a bit better in their thinking than the members of the other, and indeed a...
There are 2 Model 98 Mausers that were German issue. I am not up to speed on the technical aspects of them, but you can find that info I am sure. Both are...
I know this is a bit esoteric, but these particular God-given rights ALWAYS exist regardless of the legal framework which exists in a particular country at any...
Interesting discussion. Be careful with this line of thinking however. There is a huge difference between what the police (government) can do and what I can...
How about a German Gew98, in 8MM caliber. Standard infantry rifle, lots of them brought back by Americans as war trophys. Also, lots of Luger Pistols in 9MM ...
How about a .280 Ross? This was a pre-WWI Canadian development, and a Canadian team shooting them swept the boards one year at the US National Matches (so we...
The most common '98 mauser of WWI was a rifle, with a long (about 30") barrel. The most common '98 Mauser of WWII was the Kar 98, a "carbine" with an...
The only problem with using the Mauser in your story is that there were a LOT of them around. If you want something a little more obscure, and still used by...
