This site has been helpful in catching me up and I hope that in the event changes are made that a political forum is still left available for those of us who were late starts in life.

    Thanks to those who run this site and for some of the contributors who seem so well informed.
    I'm new to the site but not shooting and it seems that I haven't quite kept up with the politics so it is good to have a place to catch up

      Well the politics have been tumultuous of late; what with re-classifications, and now more forward progress in the CSFLA, it's bound to get heated. Especially as the CSFLA has room to push a bit. When the CPC dissolved the LGR, it was (supposed to be, sigh) a big, one shot deal. Wipe out a registry, keep an election promise, pretty bow on top.
      On this latest proposal we have some maneuvering space, so opinions are flaring a touch. Can't wait to see what happens when the Bill is actually tabled.

Bacon, middle aged men in Speedos and cartoons are much easier to tolerate than some of the stuff that goes on elsewhere. At least, people seem to care about "the joint" as it was and is easy just to "walk out" with no gain to anyone.
        Everybody is strange in their own way. To me it seems that most here aren't ... ah... don't take themselves too seriously. Everybody has an opinion, what works for you might not work for me but I may have learned a different angle that I hadn't thought of. Unfortunately as membership grows more of the thumpers (They'll thump on the table or thump on their chest to loudly prove a point) will show up. Can't help it - get a large enough group and, like my dad always said, there's one in every jock strap.

          The information that has been provided and the warm reception has been very encouraging. It is great to have this place.

          What started as a simple interest in firearms and shooting has lead to sleepless nights studying, learning and refining the end goals. I love this hobby. CSSA & NFA

            Anyone else think that, maybe, we've got it back?
            Everything just seems more...pleasant the last week or so.

                It sure does feel more like home. I found my slippers just inside the door and the muck rakings have been left outside where they belong. I look forward to Candy's "bee kee knee" spread and even Foxer riding across my screen on that white horse in his Speedo. Variety is the spice of life but the menu here features guns and anything that goes with them and that's why I continue to come and stir the pot once in a while.

                    The image will never die Mr. Foxer. Cept maybe to be replaced by Candy's bee kee knee extravaganza.

                        Hey Go easy on Mr. Strewth!!! He did say that it's better to be known for being "Hung like a horse" rather than a horse's patooie. He's trying to be your friend Mr. Foxer....

                          He might be your friend, but hide your bacon.

                          Cheers!

                            Actually I think Foxer is a bit miffed cuz Candy said she likes Strewth better. I dunno, maybe its the scent of bacon behind his ears?

                              Yeah, careful of that guy. You should hide your bacon at my place.
                              In fact I could see this as a sharing economy business? Everyone could share their bacon with me?
                              I will gladly pay you Tuesday for some bacon today...

                                If it's only behind my ears I'm doing something wrong.
