I will add links to related pages. I probably will not accept paid commercial advertisements. I maintain this web-site as a public-service of my own devising. It might complicate things if I were obligated to others. My out of pocket expenses for this siteare less than I spend on tumbling media and resizing lube per year, andno-one could afford to pay me my hourly rate for the amount of effort Iput into this.Contact me.
Oh, by the way, some people have written to arizona@rifleshooting.com as tho they were writing to a huge corporation, "Dear Sirs, ..." and allthat..... Arizona Rifle shooting is ME, one guy, no business, no profit, no Java programmers, no office, no professional webmasters, no expenses other than the $30 or so a year hosting fee.... That's all. You can have a web site just like it too!

"No te mostrare mi espalda sin razon.
No la guardare sin honor."
- engraved on a Spanish Sword in a museum.
Its not Liberty whose supposed to
be blindfolded, that's the other
chick,
and neither of them should be bound and gagged.
- quote on a
friend's website
"Firearms
stand next in importance to the Constitution
itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under
independence. From the hour the Pilgrims landed, to the present day,
events, occurrences and tendencies prove that to ensure peace, security
and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable.
The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil
interference -- they deserve a place of honor with all that's good."
- attributed to
George Washington

"Over the years, the United States has sent many of its fine men and
women into great peril to fight for freedom beyond our borders. The
only
amount of land we have ever asked for in return is enough to bury those
who did not return."
- Colin Powell (reported by Jeff
Cooper)
In Calgary, near the Bow
River, is a small plaza that must have been built as part of the '88
Winter Olympics. Set in metal letters right into the stone surface of
the plaza is this sentence:
"The
most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win, but to take
part, just as the most important thing in life is not the
triumph but the struggle."
(attributed to Baron de Coubertain, founder of the modern olympics)
"We probably
wouldn't be speaking the Navajo language - or even the
English language - if it wasn't for the code-talkers."
- some old Navajo code talker on a TV
interview

وَالسَّارِقُ
وَالسَّارِقَةُ فَاقْطَعُواْ أَيْدِيَهُمَا جَزَاء بِمَا كَسَبَا نَكَالاً
مِّنَ اللّهِ وَاللّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ
5:38
Far better it is to dare mighty
things, to win glorious triumphs
even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits
who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray
twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."
-- Theodore Roosevelt

Second one says, "No, its Thursday!"
Third one says, "So am I. Let's go get a beer."

"If a man stands just an hour with a
weapon in his hands to fight Jihad, its better than being a preacher in
Mecca for 100 years."
- - unidentified Lebanese man who had
gone to Iraq to join the insurgency and later returned, quoted in LA
Times, 29-Dec-04
"Suppose the Second Amendment said, 'A well-educated electorate being
necessary for self-governance in a free state, the right of the people
to keep and read books shall not be infringed.' Is there anyone who
would suggest that means only registered voters have a right to read?"
-- Robert A. Levy, Senior Fellow, Cato Institute
"It is Sunna that
every Muslim has the right to bear arms."

"...it's not uncommon for households in the Middle East to have at least an AK-47 around the house..."
- from a news report on Yahoo
"[regarding]... female Marines ...there is one out here who is pulling more than her weight and is doing things no one else could do. She is an educated Syrian-born Lance Corporal, an absolutely delightful and fascinating person. Because of her particular abilities, she can go with units on a variety of missions and help calm a situation by speaking to the women and children, which is something no male Marine can do effectively. She has also done yeoman's work as a translator for the interrogators. All of that is even more impressive when you hear what career she walked away from to enlist in the Marine Corps: she was a practicing physician. I wouldn't have believed it unless I saw it myself."
- report of a correspondent of Jeff Cooper in Nov 04 - http://users2.ev1.net/%7Emkreynolds/jeff/
“All that is necessary for the forces of evil to prevail
in the world is for enough good men to do nothing.”
Edmund Burke, British statesman 1729-1797
"...I
was entranced the first time I looked down a gun-sight with a finger on
a trigger. It seemed to me the most private, the most intense moment of
conversation with oneself, so to speak, with that split-second of right
decision coming and going all the time, almost answering the movements
of one's mind. It wasn't at all what I was expecting. I feel that the
religious excitement that is supposed to come to people who meditate on
the flame of a single candle in an otherwise dark room was no greater
than the pleasure I felt when I looked down a gun-sight and became very
close to my own mind and consciousness. In a second the scale of things
could alter and I could be lost in something like a private universe."
From Half a Life, 2001. - by V.S. Naipaul
"French Soldiers, we
do not accept your surrender, if you are Vichy, fight us, if you are
Frenchmen join us!"
