Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

I have a Ruger #3, a Handy Rifle (was H&R but then New England Firearms), and a Siamese Mauser I built for dad.
The Henry is a good rifle. I had a Marlin 1895, but could never get accuracy with cast bullets because of that Micro-Grooving.

Update. Won't need to buy any after all. I went through my deceased father's stash of stuff and found plenty.
