Soooo.....Who's in. I read the series in high school back in the 80's. I really enjoyed it. Movie looks intriguing to me. How much will the movie do for revolvers as "The Hunger Games" did for bows. Has anyone seen it yet? Here is the trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4C0A2GpMNP8

I haven't read the books but the trailer looks good. My mother in law is supposed to watch our kids Sunday so we can go watch it.

I have to admit I have never read a word he had written. Just not the type of material I enjoy.

Yeah, King is a rabidly​ anti-gun & donates to that cause...Therefore, anything he's associated with gets no money from me.

The trailer does look pretty good but I don't plan on seeing it. King lives just 20 minutes away from me and although he and his wife have certainly done some good things for the community, they also contribute heavily to many liberal causes and organizations contrary to my beliefs. Plus, I have to admit, the guy really creeps me out!

I probably won't see it as I'm just not a fan of that type stuff. I find it wrong that people will be against someone simply because they have a different opinion on an issue, it strikes as rather unamerican.

Sorry Chief..... maybe I am un american but I just dont like bolsheviks.....and the fact they attempt to ram their Godless beliefs and idealogy down my throat. I figure im a pretty good man.... I work for a living, take care of my family no matter what, and do my best to do the right thing. Things bolsheviks do not believe in..... Ill keep my $$$ in my unamerican pocket and not in the many pockets of the bolsheviks..... I see it as a idealogy and way of life and not an opinion on something. Marx, Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Mau, and Pot did as well.

Liberal idealolgy is what is distinctly un-American.
I decided to go see The Hitman's Bodyguard instead. It was pretty good.

Well I did see it, couldn't help myself. My first question is when is Uberti going to make a clone gun for the movie. It's going to take some engineering and design stuff. Start with a mostly Remington 1858 conversion I think (only fast looks.). Trick is it has to have both a loading gate (also fast but I think it was on the wrong side) and a flip open cylinder (for the moon clips) . O yeah it also fires double action. That shooting with the mind thing seems to work but it is more of a Zen radar kind of thing. Lastly,if you are not fond of the books don't worry. The movie has no real relation to them.

So because somebody dislikes guns they are a Bolshevik and instantly equated to the furthest of the far left? Never for one second did I say anybody wasn't a good man, hard working of good moral character and a fine American, let's keep that straight from the beginning. Seems when folks can't handle any ideas that are different from their own in any way then we're headed down the wrong road, America is a give and take society, those who won't bend will break.

Look folks, I'm sorry to rabble rouse and poke the bear. Not my intent at all and sorry to let things go political here where we all know it isn't wanted.
