    Anti gun legislation

    Its not like we are putting people to death here. Worst case scenario is that particular person will have to appeal the ruling / not be able to own a firearm. If the test was unfair, it could be challenged through the legal system or amended through the legislative process, both tools that...

    Anti gun legislation

    The same could be applied to psych evaluations. Why not? Who is hurt by giving up some if their time so that at least some of these crazies will be unable to obtain a gun (they are a lot easier to seriously hurt someone with then a hammer). It is because it gives the government the power to...

    Anti gun legislation

    This is well and good, and it certainly speaks to your commitment to safe gun onwership. But, I wouldn't put too much credence into training coming from gun clubs. The type of training and testing I'd like to see mandated would ideally be administered by local law enforcement at the prospective...

    Anti gun legislation

    If someone wants to take a gun into a bar....they are going to take a gun into the bar. The law is not going to stop them. There isn't a law requiring everyone to take a gun into the bar. I believe that its a crime to CCW while intoxicated.... Most people that legally carry a firearm are...

    Anti gun legislation

    "Head shot" was mentioned. My training has been, never aim for the head, center mass, always. I am not aware of a situation where training dictates otherwise. While I do not advocate its use, there are some middle eastern military units that train for high density crowds that use a 'head shot'...

    The only way to keep crime rates down is to make criminals fear committing the crime.

    The 2011 Jeep LACK OF DIESEL thread....

    liberty CRD was about the only source domestically for the 2.8VM. The JK, even the previous gen, used a different version than the Liberty. The 2.8 CRD from the Libby can be swapped in the TJ, AEV did it in like 2006. They won't do another one, but it was possible. From my reading, the...

    once again, rumors of new Jeep pickup

    Heck, just add the 3-door J8 style body to the JK line, then manufacture a pickup style top and bulkhead for it.... And give us the DIESEL already! The new 2011 Euro V 2.8 CRD would be just fine! 197hp, 350ft lbs. 30+mpg.

    New Diesel Swap

    The grand cherokee diesel is suppose to be a fairly hard swap, I remember something about having to move the steering box on the JK to get the engine to fit.

    Go fast....get Cage.

    The kit is about $3900ish + shocks. I have to wonder if you REALLY need a longarm conversion for 2-3" of lift on the new JK arms. I'm sure its better, but that is sure a lot of extra parts and complexity. The Carli dodge kits seem to do REALLY well with the standard arms on 3" of lift or...
