    To me that whole thing was a clusterf***k from the getgo as far as "security" went. That SS outfit acted like a bunch of Keystone cops,"Don't fire until fired upon." What in hell kind of strategy is that? No wonder we lost so many good men in the sandbox and elsewhere. The object of security is...

    Why no sniper team on that building where the shooter was? Why no patrol in the AGR area? Pretty obvious that's where he came from. Very poor planning and I'm just a layman. And what is off to the right of the seating area? So many big holes that even I can see.

    My question is how could anyone not invited to the venue get to within 150 yds without security noticing? Especially with outbuildings so close. That is a prime recipe for disaster. Seems like a major breakdown in security. Should have been LEO or someone out to at least 1/4 mile in a full...

    Learned back when I was competing 3 gun to thump the butt on the ground a few times after clearing. I've shaken one loose a few times in a tubular magazine after a long sequence and things heat up some.

    Totally agree with your post. I was responding to the baldwin case. He has no excuse and should be proecuted to the fullest extent of the law --- about 20 years worth behind bars. Call it learning for his next movie role.

    There is no way possible for a single action revolver to fire even with a live round in the chamber until the hammer is manually cocked and the trigger pulled. The only exception being a vintage Colt with no transfer bar and even then only if it is dropped and lands on the hammer.

    It may rattle your teeth when practicing but in the field you won't hear or feel it. A 375HH recoil is more of a push than a jab like others. Get a Past Recoil Shield and you're good to go. A Win 70 Safari Express at about 10 lbs is just about ideal. The King of Rifles for anything from mice to...
