I like my little PPK I don't need things to make me feel manly and I like small things except for ta ta's. I had a Smith & Wesson made Stainless Steel PPK and it was a fine gun piece. Some complain about the recoil. I never noticed. Sorry I sold it.

The annual 2nd amendment foundation RTKBA conference took part in PHX today, and will continue tomorrow. The lady in bottom right has been involved in two historic Supreme court cases. Charles Heller in the blue shirt he heads up the JPFO, and is instrumental in the AZCDL. Tom Gresham from Guntalk Rdio... bonanzadriver knows Tom through piloting. Professor John Lott. Baseball legend Curt Schilling. And this shady looking pipe smoker drove me there.

Son went in the Cleveland 22LR COMPETITION and shot like 💩, came in 16 of 23, said Dad I don't know what happened, I just stunk. Told him maybe the stress of whether you were gonna flood thru you off, he said I was awful. Like Forrest Gump said life's like a box of chocolates and then in real life it's like 💩.

Is he someone we should know? If by "He" you are referencing Tom Gresham, then the answer is Yes. Yes you should. Besides being a friend of mine, Tom is an avid outdoor sports enthusiast with youtube, radio, podcast and radio programs, all supporting his love of not only the Great Outdoors, but his love of our country, it's constitution and great emphasis on the 2nd amendment. Toms dad was Grits Gresham, outfitter and wilderness guide to the rich and famous, including several presidents. Dino

Never heard of Tom, but I was a huge fan of Grits Gresham. Still, I wouldn't know him if I tripped over him. A lot of people I read without knowing what they look like. I was referencing the huge individual who takes up the foreground. Don't get snippy with me, kid. I will show you where you can park your Rolex. 👿👹😎ðŸ¤

If the Gun Rights Policy Conference ever comes to a city near you - GO! Had a fantastic day with a good fellow listening to principled and responsible advocates of the Second Amendment. Had to bow out of the second day, but I'm sure it was just as good.

@driftinggate, your profile says David. Nits identified you as Tom Gresham. What is the correct answer to the riddle? Charlie is responsible for this mess I tell you! 👹 I looked up the pictures of Tom, (I knew what Grits looked like) and he ain't you. Where's Dino??

You need to lay off the non medical marijuana Ron.... If you look under he first captioned pic, it says the woman on the lower right....under the second pic, it says the guy in the blue shirt....see the pattern? Today was a great lineup of speakers, and the 3 doctors for gun owners was an exceptionally good panel, really missed having you there Dave. They announced yesterday that The second amendment foundation teamed up with the University of Washington, and they had a session after the conference ended for those that were interested. "Preventing death by suicide". www.intheforefront.org/When my son the Marine came back home from Afghanistan, he went through some dark times, and I locked up all my guns, the wife's strong meds went to deep cellar status instead of the medicine cabinet. It was good to see a lot of suspicions confirmed today, but I learned so much more, and it will be invaluable in catching the warning signs and how to proceed with anyone in my orbit. A nice touch was that they said they had freebies for people at the end of the session...it was nice that hey did it that way ensuring that the people that received the freebies did it with the right motives, making sure that there was plenty of goods to give away, my two picks.

The Doctors For Responsible Gun Owners I think shares some commonality with smokers, as that these doctors understand individual liberty....I did not have a chance to have a one on one with Dr. Brodale, Edeen, and Dr. Robert Young.... (He even played one on TV!) But...I would think that doctors with that mndset would generally not have a problem keeping confidentiality with a patient on smoking while still being able to factor that in when treating a patient that feels free to be honest. drgo.us/2adoc-com-will-connect-patients-and-providers/

I'm right here brutha… Rolex and all! ;-) Just got home from walking Pinehurst #2 with 3 of my buds. Great round, and many many great Arturo Fuente 858's consumed in the process. A short ride home on the Harley and I'm sittin here watchin a little TV and catchin up on things in the patch. I met Grits' son in the aviation community. Tom and his son are great folks and provide some great content on their various platforms. The thing I most admire about Tom is his humility and unwavering commitment to challenging the hype and hysteria from those that would seek to disarm you and me. Dino

I never knew this Grits Grehsam everyone seems to be on about but I once packed into the John Muir Wilderness with "Slim" Cranny, the legendary Sierra Nevada Mountains Guide and Packer. I was with my dad and his pal, Bob from Iowa. I was about 14. All day in the saddle to reach the high mountain fish camps, the alpine lakes. No one else on the trail for the whole week except one Forest Service guy. Slim would do his Jimmie Rodgers' impressions, singing about making love in a canoe.

Well said Dino, Tom is a very approachable guy and is very genuine when you meet him...and that is the reason he is hard to talk to at events like this, so many people swarm to him....I walked by today tapped him on the shoulder as he was busy with others and gave him a wink and thumbs up....I talked to him in the past, But I know that public figures deserve their space....I will send him an email later.
True to himself, he was sequestered in a room off to the side with a sign on it today "Guntalk in Progress", he did his nationwide show remotely.

I watched a lot of Marlin Perkins back in the day...I reckon that was about the same time Grits had a different audience.

Eggzactky! You say the guy in the shirt drove you. I asked if he was someone we should know. Dino identified HIM as Tom Gresham if he was trying to answer my question. See! 👹

So you were 14 and out in a canoe with a guy singing about making love in a canoe... Thanks, explains a lot. Grits was on TV with a hunting show and he had a column in one of the outdoors magazines that I used to read. I have one of his books on guns and the philosophy that goes with them somewhere around here.

I knew some vets that seemed OK by the standards of the day, but I now know that they were just slowly committing suicide. It's hard to know what is going on in a veterans head when you aren't on the same channel. I have never been in combat, but I have seen the damage to the survivors.

Long rides, a few songs helped pass the time.

Before leaving today, I talked to these two women behind me (sisters), the blonde haired one never picked up a gun until she was 63, she now is a certified NRA instructor, shoots 1000 rounds per week and introduces women to shooting in Chicago...she showed me a video of her running an IPDA course....I would have never thought that she was capable...I feel sorry for the idiot that feels like she is an easy mark.

Every woman who I have taken shooting took to it like she was born with a gun in her hand. When I quit sillouette and I sold the Contender my wife didn't speak to me for a week. She shot regularly until she got promoted and didn't have time anymore. I didn't mind reloading for myself, but an additional 500 rounds a week is work.
