If he's equating 3.5" exclusively to SBEII, then he's wrong. The SBE's were 3.5" as well. Have you seen the gun? They can be told apart by appearance. SBE http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=157993494 SBEII http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=157910723

I can't answer that. It would be up to the prosecutor. I would hope that if you used it in a justifiable HD scenario that you would be forgiven, but the truth is that no one knows what will happen until such a situation actually plays itself out. I personally wouldn't be concerned about it unless I were taking the gun to a public range.

Really? They knew that they were fighting a war based on false pretenses for a tired old man with and axe to grind? They knew that the information fed to Congress by the administration was complete BS? They knew that the entirety of evidence against Iraq was based on nothing more than hearsay from a lowlife informant? They knew that Cheney's old buds at KBR would profit so heavily from a war that he had 9 years prior

Nothing new here. Just different words repeating the same crap. You go, patriot! Please protect me when "they" come for my guns, my children, my ficus, and my duck decoys. I will address the one point in which you seemed to almost show interest. I suppose it's because you haven't been instructed by your handlers on how to respond to such a deep reference. The "crackhead" I was referring to, the loser who brought forth the "intelligence" about WMD's in Iraq, was a fellow named Rafid Ahmed Alwan, AKA "Curveball". Follow that link and spend some time with your head out of the sand for a change. One more thing. About that economy.... Do you see a trend there, SKIPPY?

I shot Kents for several years before trying Black Cloud this season. By the end of the season, I was giving away my remaining boxes of Kents. I don't know about the Indian Creek tube, but I do know that Black Cloud and the Black Cloud tube kicked butt this year! I was dropping birds that I would previously not even try to shoot, and they came down hard!

Bowm chicka bowm bowm!

Now I am just as bored with you as I was the previous dork. You're not bringing anything new to this discussion at all. Just the same old attempts at branding someone so that you can more clearly discern the "enemy" from the "good guys". I simply don't know who some of the people you mention are. Patricia Ireland? Wasn't she in SI Swimsuit issues for several years? Yours is the typical hard right attack tactic. "You're either with us or you're against us!" & "I don't understand you so I need to pigeon hole you as every other liberal stereotype so I can feel better about hating you." It's old, it's tired, and it simply doesn't work anymore. I don't give rat's backside if you think I'm Ted Kennedy. I know who I am and where I've come from. More importantly, I know where I want to go. Here is what I know. I tried "conservative" leadership for 8 years. They took us from a stable economy with a budgetary surplus to a complete economic meltdown, necessitating government intervention with taxpayer money to stop the bleeding. It was they who instigated the TARP to prevent the economy from "cratering". Legislation was shoved through at an alarming rate, and the same people who had driven us into the ditch were given the keys to the kingdom and a bag of gold for their efforts. They all but abandoned the important and duly justified war in Afghanistan and devoted resources towards settling an old debt and making rich friends richer, sacrificing scores of lives and stretching our defenses to a near breaking point. For what? Some crackhead said there were WMD's and he was treated as though the information was unimpeachable gospel. They strained our relationships with the rest of the world and drug us into an abyss. Then, when it finally comes time to consider new leadership, the same party offers the same old tired and ineffective philosophies. Yet still, even then, I was considering voting for McCain, because I do like my guns. Then he shows what is quite possibly the biggest lapse in judgment in the history of American politics and recruits a vacuous null-wit weather girl from Alaska.... Alaska?! to be his running mate. Finally, I get it. My guns will have to take a back seat in this one, and I'm going to have to hope that the 2nd will stand up to any challenges brought forth, because what the heck good are my guns if I have to sell them all to provide for my family? There are more facets to my life than my love for firearms. I'm not the liberal elitist you choose to paint with such a broad brush. I'm just a guy who realized that doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is generally what is classified as a fool. I'm tired of being that guy. I'm tired of being held hostage by one party with my guns as ransom. I would gladly give all of my guns to bring back just one of the 3,000 plus brave souls who went to fight without once questioning whether they were fighting for the right reasons. I have listed facts in this ongoing discussion. Facts that have in no way been challenged nor debunked by a darned thing you or any of the others have said. Yes, I have over 6,000 posts. I truly get tired of that being thrown up in my face as though it's something I did wrong. I came here seeking information one day some years ago. I have stayed because I truly enjoy helping people when I can, in any way I can. My job affords me a lot of time in front of the computer, waiting, as I am right now, waiting for other things to be completed. I choose to spend that time doing things I like to do. When hunting season is out, I like coming here. You're just going to have to deal with that in your own way with that if it bothers you. Get a new label-maker. Your old one is obsolete.

You do understand that Republican lawmakers can write bills too, don't you?? If there's work to be done, and they don't like what the other side is coming up with, then they can take on a higher level of participation instead of just sitting back and saying NO all the time.

Your concern is with a federal gun law referred to as 922r. Scroll down to section ® on this page. http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/usc_sec_18_00000922----000-.html ® It shall be unlawful for any person to assemble from imported parts any semiautomatic rifle or any shotgun which is identical to any rifle or shotgun prohibited from importation under section 925 (d)(3) of this chapter as not being particularly suitable for or readily adaptable to sporting purposes except that this subsection shall not apply to— (1) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for sale or distribution by a licensed manufacturer to the United States or any department or agency thereof or to any State or any department, agency, or political subdivision thereof; or (2) the assembly of any such rifle or shotgun for the purposes of testing or experimentation authorized by the Attorney General. Now that we have that out of the way, use some common sense. Do you shoot at a public range or private range? Do you sell drugs, rob banks, or commit other unlawful acts? People who get busted for 922r are usually already in more trouble than that to begin with, and 922r is just tacked on. They don't magically come to your house and kick the door in as soon as you bolt on the offending part.

While we have someone in the group who appears to have some command of the language, let me run this by you. Too Big To Fail? More and more, our healthcare system is being consolidated into a handful of insurance and hospital conglomerates. Massive companies that are gobbling each other up and growing into powerful monsters. So what happens if the American public continues to be more frugal, even when we do get back to work? What happens when we stop believing that we have every other fabricated ailment on the commercials? What happens when the oil companies get jumpy again and run gas prices back through the roof? Many of these companies are raising their rates in excess of inflation to compensate for the loss of business from out of work customers. It's a situation that may well mirror what happened with the creditors in the months leading up to the mortgage collapse. Trust me, there are a lot retirement dollars in the healthcare sector as well. There's a healthcare bubble out there too. What if people simply stop going to the doctor for every little thing, because they're either uninsured or they don't want to risk losing coverage by making small claims and having pre-existing conditions documented. Things get tight and the big ones like Anthem begin to falter. Suddenly, there could be millions of people who can no longer have access to healthcare. Is the government, you know, the one who has no business in healthcare, going to step in and bail them out? Will all of those people be tossed out into the streets with no medical services? Will these huge companies lay off thousands and thousands of workers? What happens to the support industries? The medical equipment manufacturers. The pharmaceutical companies? Does this snowball effect sound familiar? It should. Is this when failed capitalism must once a gain be propped up by the taxpayers, in order to preserve a quality of life for all? As I see it, the only difference between that model and [gasp] Socialism is that in our model we let someone slip out the back door with scads of profits on top of what it actually costs to run the system. Only when they've slipped away and the house is on fire, do we rush in to save it. Now I'm not decrying that Socialised medicine is the answer. But if we're going to end up with government run healthcare to go along with our government run banking and government run auto industries, I'd just as soon skip the painful part and apply a little regulation up front. In 2007, the US Auto Industry accounted for 144 billion dollars of the GDP. Finance and Insurance - 960 billion dollars. Healthcare - 769 billion. New reports indicate that healthcare is now at 2.5 trillion dollars, or about 17.3 percent of our GDP. Can we afford to allow a handful of major players control 17% of our Gross Domestic product, with little to no regulation? You thought the others were too big too fail? How does $282 million per hour grab you?

No video. How are you at reading and pictures?

I'll bet you're a Teabagger, aren't you? You quote patriots as though you have some exclusive rights to their ideals, and anyone who is opposed to your current philosophies must therefore be unpatriotic. It's a shallow and ridiculous notion that has served the extreme right well for a good while now. But it's finally falling apart, isn't it? Even your beloved Sarah tossed you under the bus. That must have stung a bit. You bectha! "Now the smart thing will be for independents who are such a part of this Tea Party movement to, I guess, kind of start picking a party," .... "Which party reflects how that smaller, smarter government steps to be taken? Which party will best fit you? And then because the Tea Party movement is not a party, and we have a two-party system, they’re going to have to pick a party and run one or the other: ‘R’ or ‘D’." - Sarah Palin Sounds like someone has sat her down and had a talk. Taxes? The new tax cuts reduce ( But somehow he's a tax and spend Democrat? Interesting concept. But there may be some truth to that. And what about all of that tax and spend vs fiscal conservatism? Over the past 75 years, which Administrations have contributed more to our national deficits? Which ones made strides in the other direction? These are not trick questions. They go right to the very heart of some of our most prevalent concerns for our children's futures. If the Democrats are tax and spend, then certainly the Republicans are borrow and spend. So when the more responsible of the two comes along, the first thing they're left with doing is to pay the bills and clean up the mess their predecesor left behind. Tell you what. I'll come to your house and throw a big party. I'll borrow a gaggle of cash from, oh... let's say China, and we'll have some some drinks and do some gambling... maybe hire a few pricey strippers. You know? The works. Most of my friends are going to leave with a hefty profit, because they weren't gambling with their own money to begin with. There will be some stains on the carpets, some pee in the pool and maybe a few unsavory items lying around. Perhaps we'll even invade the neighbor's place and trash that too? When your patience with me and my friends runs out, I'll tell you how much you owe the lender, the caterers, the bar, and band, ... it's all in your name. Now you just have to figure out a way to pay for it. Good luck with that. Gun legislation? Please show me where the bills are? That shouldn't be hard to do, should it? What has the new administration done, other than repeal the previous one's ban on guns in national parks? perhaps I've missed something. Obviously I have, or you wouldn't invoking these dead patriots, would you? Yes, I know there are some leftists who want to abolish all guns. There are also some right-wingers who want to tell women what they can and cannot do with their own bodies. Both ideas sicken me. Both are affronts to liberties. There are some lefties who do think the solution to everything is more regulation. There are also some righties who think that unregulated capitalists would not dare do anything to harm their fellow Americans, even in the wake of the epic clusterf*** of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act and the collapse of the financial systems it brought about. And please don't start a war of malapropisms with W in your corner. That's like bringing silly putty to a gunfight. Great quotes from Jefferson and the others. They were wise and great men. But they weren't exclusive to your current political discontent. They apply equally to all who are uneasy these days. They are as appealing as a basket of puppies, and about as much help. The ability for them to vote themselves this or that didn't just happen last January. That one has been around for while now, and it has been abused by the very fools you seem to prefer to have in power. So, now the butler is in the mansion, but he's sleeping in his master's bed. As upsetting as that may be, please keep in mind that the master experienced quite an epic amount of incontinence in that bed. So it's going to take the new fellow maybe a bit more than a year to clean up 8 years worth of crap. He is my President. He was duly elected by both a popular and electoral majority. He's got the previous clown beat on that one. He inherited two wars, the worst economy in 70 years, and got stiffed for a staggering bar tab from the last party. I support him and I hope he succeeds in getting this nation back together and back on track. God bless him and God help him. Civil discourse is always a healthy thing, but condemnation based on lies, innuendos, and in some cases, ignorance divides a nation that really needs to come together.

The industry standard is .035" for full choke.

Then you need to get another choke tube, because nothing makes it rain geese quite like Black Cloud!

Looks like TaintSkimmer has a brighter cousin! But when you sift through the better writing and composition, you're essentially left with the same response - "I have no grounds or facts upon which to debate you, so I offer you a litany of insults. I sure hope that's enough to throw a few people off track and make them overlook the fact that I really didn't say anything worth a flying #^$%." Well, perhaps. But I doubt it. Nice of you to pass through. Be sure and stop by the gift shop and get yourself a t-shirt or a troll doll.

Black Cloud BB's

You could melt them down and make a gun or something.

No. Tell him to call me.

Here is another funny picture.

More loud and irrelevant comments from the fringe. I'm getting bored again.

You have no desire to discuss real issues, because you are either too clueless to recognize and comprehend them or you're doing what the majority of your kind do. When you're proven wrong, you get louder and make irrelevant and distracting comments, because that's all you have left. I hope you find a job soon. I really do. God knows you can't get anywhere on your wits, so here's to hoping you can run a shovel or a rake. Perhaps something will come up for you in the next stimulus package.

Hey TaintSkidder, How do you think this guy would have fared in a protest outside of the building where Bush was appearing? They used to arrest people for the signs they carried. Do you really think they would have allowed a black man with an assault weapon to hang around out there?

Another line drive sails over the head of the infield.

Well, at least they're honest about it.
