    You made a big point to say you don’t patronize Etsy because they sell anti gun prodicts. I simply asked if you do that with other popular sites like Amazon and EBay that sell exactly the same merchandise . If answering the question directly is embarrassing then don’t. Buy what you want where...

    Love the way you avoid answering the question. That’s ok I’m sure everyone can draw their own conclusions.

    No kidding and so does Etsy, which you avoid because some of the sellers sell anti gun materials. So how is that site different from EBay or Amazon which also have sellers that sell anti gun materials? None of those sites have a policy against guns but you seem to justify not doing business with...

    I guess you don’t use Amazon or EBay either then.

    Yes you are. Just a simple search using the words gun parts came up with all kinds of gun brass, magazines, brass catchers, gun grips, gunsmithing tools, rifle scabbards, pro gun license plates …

    It took a little work to track down but the Nelson Atkins Art Museum in Kansas City, MO does indeed have this photo in their collection which was taken by David Collins in 1842. https://art.nelson-atkins.org/people/11016/david-c-collins;jsessionid=7B525831B8349DFC9E5622A05647DD8C/objects

    Oldest photograph of a dog.

    The Smithsonian has a number of photographs taken by David Collins, who worked with his brother as photographers in the 1840’s and early 1850’s. The International Center of Photography credits him with the earliest known photograph of a dog taken in 1842. If this is indeed his photo, as...

    Oldest photograph of a dog.

    There is a bridge connecting Heaven and Earth. It is called the Rainbow Bridge because of its many colors. Just this side of the Rainbow Bridge there is a land of meadows, hills and valleys with lush green grass. When a beloved pet dies, the pet goes to this place. There is always food and water...

    That also became the lyrics of a County Western song by the Bellamy Brothers some years ago .

    Dogs have enriched my life beyond description. Those who are not dog people can never really understand the bond that develops between man and dog. Maya was my first hunting dog and during the 14 years she spent with me she remained by my side every second possible. There is an anonymous...

    Really messed up.

    A friend had a similar problem with a flintlock rifle and compressed air didn’t work for him. There was just enough space around the edge of the jag in the barrel to allow the compressed air pressure to escape. He found this video on YouTube by Mike Beliveau on how to shoot a stuck jag out of a...

    I’ve ordered dozens of things off Etsy over the past few years and have never had an issue with any of their sellers. I personally know one of them and I’ve heard a good deal about how the website works. Seems ideal for someone with a small business on the side. You have to remember that each...

    They are (technically) a firearm in NJ and subject to a plethora of laws and restrictions, so if you are traveling through that state as this guy was, you better know that. Several years ago there was a case in the news of an older gentleman who was transporting an old antique flintlock pistol...

    Huge Rifle

    Actually, dramatic reductions of waterfowl due to commercial hunting with punt guns is what first began to change the public’s perception on hunting and conservation. Due to these concerns, punt guns were banned from legal use in the 1860’s. This began a change in the way people hunted and the...

    Open carry flintlock

    Frankly, it’s not shame, it’s common sense and personal security. Unless I’m out in the field, I don’t want anyone knowing that I’m carrying. Open carry doesn’t just advertise to the hysterical public. Open carry in urban or suburban settings clearly advertises to the bad guys that you need to...

    Open carry flintlock

    I’ve noticed lately that more businesses are beginning to ask patrons not to open carrying of firearms on their premises but they do not prohibit concealed carry of firearms. Frankly, I understand this. They want to support people’s constitutional rights but they also don’t want to deal with...

    Not only are all firearms checked, but that extends to all ajr guns as well including pellet and BB guns. In addition the declaration rule also includes airsoft and paintball guns. Basically if it shoots a projectile and you are taking it on a plane it needs to be declared and in a sturdy...

    Huge Rifle

    I had not heard that. Most of the historical sources I have seen indicate that commercial sales of ducks to high end restaurants in large cities along the East Coast were the primary economic drive behind large scale hunting with punt guns. I do know that Michener, who meticulous in his...
