It made me recall a sheet of paper that was displayed on a bulletin board at my sons’ The Savage Rascal elementary school a couple of years ago. The paper –a Page 10 writing assignment – was written by one of the students and it was so forcefully anti-gun/anti-Second Amendment that it disturbed me much more than the usual rhetoric we are all bombarded with on a continual basis. It was clear the young author was parroting someone else’s words and had no clue whatsoever about anything relat- The ed to firearms. Since I was at school for Parent/Teacher conferences, I inquired about the writing assignment. I Hand-Sized Pistol was told by the teacher that her class had been having Championship debates about various topics and that the Second Amend- ment had been brought up by one of her students. After Page 62 the debating, students were instructed to write an opinion on any topic that was brought up. I won’t brag too much on this but my 10-year-old son did a fine job of defending Alice Chong: the Second Amendment using the history of our country as his ammunition. I guess what I’m saying is that the General Chennault’s essence of what we are as a country is a constant struggle even at the youngest and most innocent levels of citizen- Secret Weapon ship.

Our problem was that it had to be BIG – big enough to handle the entire load of the FL-2000 series case cleaners.

MILITARYEliminate the “Grunt Work” with Dillon’sBRASS? Super Swage 600 ntil now, reusing military brass, with its crimped Uprimer pockets, has been a tedious task. The Dil- lon solution is a remarkably simple device that bolts to your bench and allows you to swage the primer pockets with speed and ease. The case is supported from the inside, so you won’t be tearing the rims off N41-20095 the brass. A tool steel, hardened swage rod (easy to $100.95 change from large to small primers) simply rolls the crimp away. No reaming is necessary. Our unique compound cam leverage system assures not only ease of operation, but perfect alignment with each and every round. Sound simple? It is and it works. What’s more, it’s inexpensive. The Super Swage 600 comes with large and small swage rods. 6.8 SPC Back-Up Rod N41-62124 $20.95 9mm Adaptor N41-62168 14.95 .40 S&W Adaptor N41-62169 14.95 Open 7-6 MST, M-F; 8-3 Sat. • VISA, MasterCard, Discover, C.O.D. • Shipping and HazMat Not Included 24 Dillon Leather by
