    New range rule: give us your DL

    I am disappointed that this discussion is four pages long, but I am not surprised... The other day I was at the bank and the teller asked a man for his id in order to get cash back during a deposit. The guy was furious and called the young women behind the counter an idiot and a thief and...

    which states are the best and least restrictive for gun ownership?

    I cannot believe we listed: Florida Texas Idaho Utah Arizona New mexico Pennsyvania Alaska Kentucky Arkansas Connecticut South Carolina Virginia Vermont Montana Alabama Nevada Georgia Missouri Michigan Colorado Before Oklahoma... Besides the ease of acquiring a...

    UK has higher violent crime rate than USA?

    -Shadow 7D First off, it is hard to beat a man to death with anything, much less a beer mug. I have comforted plenty of people who got beat down and have wondered how they could have possibly survived their ordeal, but they frequently do. I've never personally had to comfort a rape victim...

    Opinions wanted...

    I have owned several ARs and like you I got tired of them. I recently sold everything but the .50 Beowolf. I had enough money at the end to buy a Brand new Steyr Tactical Scout with a fair amount left over. The market for ARs is incredible by the way, so you should have no trouble getting a lot...

    UK has higher violent crime rate than USA?

    This is the last place where this argument should take place, because it inevitably leads to people questioning gun laws. I consider this to be one of the few forums where I can be open about my love of shooting and collecting firearms. We are all responsible gun owners, but the ready...

    "That belongs in a museum!"

    I hope that one day I have a gun collection that belongs in a museum. Need to get 100+ historically relevant guns first though. If anyone ever has a weekend vacation in mind I recommend a trip out to Tulsa. There is a Wildlife preserve and Western-themed museum near Bartlesville called...

    Buying a pellet gun for a 10 year old boy.

    Alright, a lot of quality information here and I won't be able to get to it all before I go to work this morning. Thanks so much for everyone who responded. That is why I love the High Road. Lots of good people on here who really take your questions seriously. A lot of knowledge and emphasis...

    You missed a less entertaining, but more uplifting story on that same site. http://www.wtsp.com/video/default.aspx?bctid=973308956001&odyssey=mod|tvideo|article

    Bill would abolish gun free zones.

    You might be the first person I have ever heard say that it is OK to drink and wield a gun... That said, I do not know of incident like what your described, but I know that people show lax judgement when drinking. I just think there is some logic to limiting guns in a place where fights are...

    Buying a pellet gun for a 10 year old boy.

    Thanks everybody. A lot of good advice here. -buck460XVR I really like the idea of sending him to a hunter safety course. I think that is what I will do for his birthday. He is a really low-key and responsible young man, and I think he really would enjoy it if they will have someone his age...

    Bill would abolish gun free zones.

    Colleges maybe, but I would not be comfortable with my nephew's teacher being armed. She is a fruitcake. One place where I agree that guns do not belong is in a bar. Booze and guns do not mix.

    Buying a pellet gun for a 10 year old boy.

    My brother is overseas and I am handling all of his affairs while he is gone, including his son who is nearing 10 years old. My brother and I have been shooting since we were about 6 years old and I think it is essential to introduce kids to guns as young as you can if you are in a gun-friendly...

    clear grips disappeared

    Maybe they are available, but you can't see them because they are clear? :uhoh: I found a set for a 1934 Beretta on eBay, but that is about it. I have heard this topic breached before and the point has always been raised that Lucite and plastic wouldn't survive cleaning. Still, some...

    Help with Browning Auto-5 serial number.

    I have a pair of 20 gauge Browning Auto-5s that I inherited a while back, and I wanted to get some information on them. I have looked at their website and read the guide but I cannot seem to figure it out. I have one with a rib that has 71z on the top line and one without a rib that has 7z on...

    Help with Browning Auto-5 serial number.

    I have a pair of Browning Auto-5s in 20 gauge that I am looking to sell, but I wanted to get some information on them first. I have looked at their website and read the guide but I cannot seem to figure it out. I have one with a rib that has 71z on the top line and then a 5 digit code...
