Alphecca

This and That...

I normally give blogging a rest on Wednesdays so that my "Weekly Check" doesn't get lost in the shuffle but it seems to have anyway, so...

Confederate Yankee has a really good post about all the nonsense surrounding SCOTUS nominee John Roberts.

More crushing of dissent! Read the gory details and also about how you can help Joe Huffman in his battle against PNNL.

If a picture is worth a thousand words, Backroad Blog shows what a live visit is worth... Heh.

Cowboy Blob reports on what you should bring to the range.

Lastly, but not leastly, I must be getting noticed because I've had my first offer of a loaner gun from a manufacturer. While I hope it becomes a "permanent" loaner, this is totally cool! More details shortly plus a feature range report, but I can tell you that it [the rifle] is like having control of lightning... That's all I'm going to say right now... I'm surprised that more companies don't take advantage of my goodly-sized audience of gun-nuts. (That's a HINT, Taurus International...)

Okay, enough ellipsis for now...

Update 7/28: I guess I should end speculations. I'm quite happy that Mark Serbu, President of Serbu Firearms has kindly offered to let me play around with one of these! Yup, a BFG .50 rifle. (He's even sending some ammo, how cool is that?) Naturally I'll have extensive range reports plus, I suspect, a lot of fun. A bunch of guys from work are all waiting -- they want to try it out, too.
