I have watched this video. I think the President said it best when he stated it was a horrible thing to watch. The fact that she is dead is no surprise to me. But I also think that this officer was not acting like a trained professional when he first engaged in the situation. The act of...

I am sorry that the OP had such a crappy experience. I have had that exact fear with this route. I have done the trip twice, once with a rifle. I liked that you just had to let the airline know a few days in advance, no transit visa needed to otherwise transit through Ethiopia. I recall having...

Pure art. In this mass produced world having a rifle that displays this level of craftsmanship is a blessing. You have a real treasure there.

Is that possible? I have semi- custom builds with the barrels made by Benchmark and Douglas. In both cases the sights were soldered on afterwards. I wasn’t given the option otherwise.

It has become a thing of questionable morality. Several recent report have highlighted how people choose death because of their socioeconomic status: https://theconversation.com/maid-and-marginalized-people-coroners-reports-shed-light-on-assisted-death-in-ontario-241661 The UN has criticized...
