How about you trim that down even more; As I recently approached your business I noted prominently posted “No Guns Allowed” signs. While such postings may seem like a good idea, I would like to take this opportunity to point out a few things that you may not have considered when enacting this...

A question: Is it better to allow EVERYONE the unfettered right to carry a gun -- or to allow only those who are not felons and/or psychopaths the unfettered right to carry guns? Seems to me the "Constitutional Carry" people would allow EVERYONE to carry a gun whether they are dangerous...

"The anti-press has even dug up some CCW instructors who are against permit free concealed carry. They are putting their individual ability to make extra money ahead of freedom....." Uh, isn't that what Capitalism is all about, making as much money as you can? Damn, what a liberal ideaology...

I would also make sure the cylinder lines up properly with the barrel. Brand new to revolvers, and reproductions especially, I had an Armi San Marco 1858 where the cylinder was almost 1/8" off. I have seen a couple of Piettas with the same problem.

M1key asked "How thick is the human skull?" Well, how deep does any bullet have to go to reach a human heart -- or any vital organ? A hint: The average person's body is about 8 to 9 inches deep.

Walther PPK/S, because I happen to both like it and I can shoot it accurately enough, with whatever FMJ happens to be least expensive for practice and Winchester "Supreme Elite" PDX1 JHP for carry, because it was available at a comparatively decent price.

I understand wanting to keep wasps and hornets under control, but can't understand why anyone would ever want to kill bees and other truly beneficial insects. I once had a bee hive in my garage wall. I left them alone -- the bees were helping my get good vegetables and fruit to eat by...

My February 2012 purchase seems to prefer the .454 ball.

Again, go ahead and openly carry a firearm where it expressly illegal to do so. Go ahead.

It used to be ok to brainwash people into taking the Law into their own hands. It was back when lynch mobs were formed to hang whoever the mobs thought was guilty -- without benefit of any trial. Too often all the "guilty" had to do was have a differing opinion, look different, or come from the...

stealth, I do not vote for whoever has the "best record' concerning gun laws -- I vote for whoever WILL do what is Right and Just, instead of just what is expedient/convenient at the time.

Really? 21 CENTS for ONE round? I hope you're not complaining about that. The 6.5x50 ammo for my Arisaka costs $1.20 to $2.00 per round (only place I can get it without paying shipping/"dangerous cargo" fees is Cabela's). For my .30-30, it's 70 cents to $1.25 16 gauge shotgun? Forget it.

forestdavegump, the willful disobeyance of Law, even Law you do not happen to agree with, shows that you simply do not care about the Law, which is the hallmark of a criminal. Period.

Anyone who doesn't like that the City of New York does not allow the carrying of firearms not registered in the State of New York need to take it up with the City of New York. And if they really feel that it's not Constitutional, they need to take that up with the State of New York -- since the...

forestdavegump, it was made abundantly clear that the firearm in the situation is being carried in an area where it is ILLEGAL to carry firearms. But you go ahead and openly carry an AR-15 where it is illegal to do so -- and make sure you tell the cops that you don't have to put it down because...
