Links
This is my links page where I have put links to different forum or websites that may be of value to the target shooter or self defense researcher, or other bits and bytes. They became part of my favorites! Also, if I stumble across something VERY interesting it might end up here, whether gun related or not. If you find something of great interest please be sure to email me the link sometime.

Factors and Effectiveness
Onsite link to the FBI file if you want to download or open the pdf (about 202k ... not too big) to read about the effectiveness of handgun wounding. Their observation is that most handguns, including the biggest, are simply over rated. Need to stop someone, use a shotgun or rifle, but carrying them is difficult, so we use handguns. - Gun Owners of
America
Much information on firearm legislation, gun owner issues, articles, resources, and more. They are a lobby group, similar to the NRA. They have a recent statement about the "National Geographic" TV special "Guns In America, that shows that there is more bunk than truth in that program. Another excellent PRO-GUN link. -

Worlds foremost outfitters! From tents, hiking, fishing, hunting, cooking, YOU name it, they probably have it. One of the most unique guarantees of the business as well. They have several store locations scattered across the country with the main store at Sidney, Nebraska. I worked there in the warehouse one winter just before Christmas. HUGE is a good description. That was several years ago, and now they have scattered warehouses to make shipping from online orders much quicker to you. If you are into outdoors and outdoor recreation, this is a definite stop. -

If you do any photography, or contemplate doing photography, you will find an IMMENSE resource of info at his site. He covers a lot of aspects of photography, including newer digital, all the way up to large format camera. He has excellent reviews on things just our or recently out regarding photography.
