    funniest gun stories/quotes

    I heard a guy at the gun counter asking about a rcoil pad for hisrifle. The clerks asked him what kind of rifle was it, and he didn't know and said it was given to him by his grandfather. They asked him what caliber, and he said, "I don't know. All I know about it is that it is a 30-06." Sad...

    Hi-Point Carbine rear sight

    Do you have a 995TS or the older 995? I didn't know if you meant your gun or just the sights were from a 995TS. On my 995TS the rear sight attaches to the rail. It doesn't clamp on, but the rail has holes to screw it on. I can't remember what the screw lengths were. Tonight I'll try to take...

    Have you ever?

    Only once rally. I didn't draw it or anything. I was taking out the trash, and the dumpster is in an alley. Not a dark evil alley or anything, but still I carry when I go outside. Two young guys about a hundred feet away started to yell at me and started to walk my direction. I purposely turned...

    Heated arguement about concealed carry

    I used to work at a hospital in Pheonix. I've seen plenty of people come in with GSWs who were unarmed. Sometimes they lived, sometimes not. If going by your stepfather's logic, why were they shot? I've been around a lot of craziness in my life and known people who were killed. About a year ago...

    Ever been cheated in a trade?

    I've been lucky so far. I did feel kind of like I cheated someone else though. Not on purpose. I was offered a Taurus .357 mag for $50. The owner who I've known for a bit said that the cylinder was locking up when fired DA after a few shots. He also said it was getting harder to open and close...

    Sporterizing Rifles

    Depends on the gun for me. If it is nice condition I probably wouldn't just because I like the way they look. It' be more of a collector thing, but I'd still shoot it. If the condition is so so. I'd chop it up. Of course I used to be into hot rods and a lot of people hated what I did to classic...

    Patience

    I am glad to live where I live. I feel for you, but it is good to see someone taking up an interest despite the hurdles you have to jump.

    Recommend a Fun Gun!

    Also a Marlin 1894c lever gun. Shoots .357 mag or .38 special. Use the .38s for fun and .357s for some added power if you need it.

    Recommend a Fun Gun!

    Hi-Point 995 carbine. The gun is only $200-$250 and 9mm ammo is pretty cheap to shoot. Keltec sub2000. $300 gun that also shoots 9mm with one heck of an advantage. It takes glock mags.

    Hi-Point 995 Mags

    From what I have read they just have feeding issues. A lot of people have just adjusted the feeding lips and they say that the mags work great. I haven't had any personal experience with one of them though. I keep meaning to pick one up to see for myself, but have too many other priorities.

    irresponsible gun use

    I used to live really close to this old graveyard. All the graves were unmarked except for one. Mattie Earp. Wyatt Earp's first wife. I used to go out there with friends. One day we showed up and her grave marker was shot up with birdshot. I couldn't believe someone would do that. Eventually...
