    Frankly, I am surprised that any one from Alberta or Saskatchewan Would be “angry” at Trump. Where and who you should be angry at is Ontario and Quebec and Fidel Jr, who have been screwing over those two province for years. I would suggest you watch a few American business channels and you...

    Yes, they are. I have never understood why the USSR/Russia was so keen on a Black Sea Port. Particularly with Turkey in NATO. Does anyone really believe that Russia would get free passage through Istanbul in a war with NATO?

    Well, ones a Capitalist and the other a Democrat & Socialist, but I repeat myself. FDR's New Deal did not get the USA out of the Great Depression, it was WW2 that did that. FDR wanted into WW2, and he got his wish when Japan bombed the USA. (Of course there is a conspiracy theory with that...

    I have a different take, and I would prefer that Russia is not aligned with the China. A one front war with China is more than enough. We don’t need a two front with Russia and China.

    rifle and equipment insurance

    I have a Valuable Personal Property (Inland Marine) policy with USAA for a few of my firearms. It’s expensive, but not attached to my homeowners. Fairly sure it’s worldwide coverage.

    Chinese mine causes environmental disaster in zambia on the kafue river

    Mike so sorry to hear this. The only saving grace is that the river is not high enough for the contaminated water to enter your pond. I doubt the Chinese do anything meaningful to clean it up, other than some photo opportunity.

    It appears at least for West Texas, the medicated feed has made a big difference. The South Texas quail also have the intestine parasite. I used it this last year, I will see if it did any good. I am afraid that last cold snap may have been a problem. I also agree they have lots a natural...

    SAAM has a shooting drill. Ammo pouch on your right. Shoot three standing, while your gun is still shouldered pull two from your pouch load and shoot again keep repeating until out of ammo. Load another pouch and start over. Best to wear a shoulder pad.

    Let’s be honest….accuracy off the sticks

    I will admit that I am recoil sensitive with my 375. Off the sticks, I am good to about 150 yards, after that not so much. I did have the opportunity to use the quad sticks last summer and I found that I shot better with those then the standard African type sticks. But, I am most likely at my...

    Trump also said he was for reciprocity in tariffs. Folks have been pushing for that at least since Nineteen Seventy Nine. I am not worried about what Trump says if you can really get everyone to free and fair trade.
