    I read it (and fountainhead) when I was 17, I’m not sure however most people are truly mature enough at that age to properly understand these novels and put them in perspective. Don’t get me wrong, Atlas shrugged is still one of the most impactful books I’ve read (along with 1984, brave new...

    Ordered my LAST African Safari rifle at DSC this year...

    Very beautiful rifle! Congratulations. I was almost going to write in revolt, why there is no cheek piece on that gorgeous rifle. Then I remembered you are one of those south paw's! :E Rofl: Can't wait to see it appear in a video of your next safari!

    Hello all, Does anyone have any experience with these “smart” glasses? They might be a good idea for use on a hunt, to film the shots. I’m no big fan of big clunky cameras that needs attaching to your body, hat or rifle, so this seems like a very non obtrusive and elegant solution, especially...

    Good Gun Deals This Week

    Very well done, I too had been ogling the 500NE, especially with the extended top strap.

    Any of our US friends care to weigh in, if a degree from the Peterson Academy would carry any weight in the (US) job market?

    Do any of you invest in gold and silver, and if so, how?

    But good luck finding something that is underpriced right now, and still has upward potential in double or triple % digits.

    Loves that video! I’m definitely not in either of those camps, but the “US not doing enough” does bring one disturbing question to my mind: why isn’t the US more actively (now and in the past) exporting their greatest achievement. Not US capitalism, mercantilism, military power or anything...

    Exactly, if the US were to truly pull back from the global scene, the other super powers would only be too happy to fill the vacuum. (And I’m not counting the EU itself as a superpower any longer. It can only be considered a superpower if it continues to ally with the US) I’d much rather have...

    Franz-Albrecht shooting a 4x8x57....

    That too, but I was mainly referencing the difference in style of the videos. Without disrespect to my American friends, but so often American hunting videos are full of bravado, pumping action and strong words. To put it eloquently “Yeehaw!”. While these videos are more quiet, observant and...

    Franz-Albrecht shooting a 4x8x57....

    As I’m alone in a hotel in Germany these videos were a nice distraction. But what a difference in style of with so many American hunter movies! That struck me the most. Anyone knows what that bull-pop bolt action was that “Nicolaus” was using?

    I’ll need to remember to pass that info on to my future inheritors.

    Do any of you invest in gold and silver, and if so, how?

    Part physical, part ETF’s and part mining stocks, offset with some S&P500 ETF, specific tech/industry ETF and some specific stocks.
