Default Guess where...

...these guns are.

These two photos are from a recent trip.

I believe that it will not take long for a PGCA member to ID the location.

I took this shot two weeks ago in Havana.

This one-time gunsmith shop is now just an exhibition of guns...as most citizens are banned from any firearm ownership.

And yes, that is a Winchester 21 at the right.

Could that carry over to the U.S. in a generation or two? I'm very afraid it will.

Notice I said in a generation or two. We won't be here to vote. With all the leftist young people wearing Che Guevara t-shirts and not having a clue about what went on there, I wonder.

Kids sent home from school for playing using their index finger and thumb as a gun, sent home for pointing the finger and going bang, etc.

Mmm... point taken.

Precisely the reason that we must bring more young people into the shooting sports.

Looks like he did, but the odds of this gun...
