By all means, let us know if you post further videos. <br /><br />I am not a redneck, but I love bluegrass!Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633208787250567256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570497968855832694.post-41972678005700162232009-04-27T07:17:00.000-05:002009-04-27T07:17:00.000-05:00I've always wanted one, but I've also been fearful...I've always <I>wanted</I> one, but I've also been fearful of them, always conscious of exactly where the barrel was pointing at every moment. But I reckon that to be a good thing, and prudent.<br /><br />There are also indications that Obama is seeking a "back door closure" of the 2nd amendment, either through ammunition, or a treaty with the UN or EU. Difficulty in obtaining ammunition would make the first too aggravating a proposition to consider purchasing a gun. The latter would carry the same weight as an amendment to the constitution, leaving it to the Supreme Court to decide which should carry <I>more</I> weight: the treaty? or the 2nd amendment.<br /><br />There's a lot of fear in the country right now, and not all of it without merit.<br /><br />Furthermore, there's no guarantee Obama's efforts to fix the economy actually will, and the neighborhood I live in? ... the hood? It just pays to be safe.<br /><br />As to your music...<br /><br />Nice Kentucky Blue Grass sound you got going on. I'm always interested in music so drop me a note anytime you post some.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874712703862427318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570497968855832694.post-65749915457270629702009-04-24T13:52:00.000-05:002009-04-24T13:52:00.000-05:00I apologize for taking a break from my "descent" s...I apologize for taking a break from my "descent" sabbath, but I'm honestly curious, Eric, why have you purchased a gun? You don't seem to particularly want one and it costs a lot of money.<br /><br />No condemnation in that question, I don't have a problem with gun ownership. Just curious.<br /><br />Also, I've posted a couple of (hastily and poorly recorded) songs on youtube <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpQV0HUwPp8" REL="nofollow"> here</A> and <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4L7Rc-9EqY" REL="nofollow"> here</A>, if you're interested. The first one is a Woody Guthrie song and the second one features two little instrumentals of my own invention.<br /><br />I will probably post a hymn or two there soon, too. If you're interested.Dan Trabuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14303597141397042669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570497968855832694.post-79287537442194715432009-04-23T17:41:00.000-05:002009-04-23T17:41:00.000-05:00No. Sold out.

It was the best available at the price I was looking at, and from reviews I've read, it appears to be a very decent gun at this price range. I paid 350$ including tax.<br /><br />I didn't buy ammo, and so haven't yet fired it. That will only happen under the tutelage of a qualified instructor. Which, I am told, is a deputy sheriff who holds bi-weekly classes at the local Ace Hardware. <br /><br />And this surprises me. For a city approaching 80,000 residents (120k when you include "workday" folk), Dothan, Alabama doesn't have a shooting range. Not that I've found, anyway... I could go to the Army Base (I am told) but that's a 45-minute drive and lots of paperwork.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874712703862427318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570497968855832694.post-25192161230138656072009-04-23T15:01:00.000-05:002009-04-23T15:01:00.000-05:00Did you get the piece you spoke of earlier?Did you get the piece you spoke of earlier?Marshal Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01054268632726520871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-570497968855832694.post-86684161873953592292009-04-23T11:19:00.000-05:002009-04-23T11:19:00.000-05:00I don't own a gun.

And they are easy to access.<br /><br />And, I'm not afraid to use them if I need to, either...say, if some idiot thinks he can enter my home without permission or something like that.<br /><br />I am a very good shot, by the way.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633208787250567256noreply@blogger.com
