    Bad experience with LEOs

    I once had a problem getting a confiscated gun back, one call to Internal Affairs fixed that pronto. Regular LEOs usually don't like dealing with IAD.

    J&G Sales Ltd.

    I've bought at least $10,000. worth of stuff from them in the last several years and have been very happy with them. I live overseas and buy guns over the internet, sight unseened and when I pick them up when on leave they have always been as good or better than described. They have always...

    Mossad Handguns?

    Beretta, Model 71, .22 rimfire was used when Munich murderers were tracked down. I was fortunate enoug to get one several years ago. NEVER fails to feed and I've had thousands of cheap ammo through it. Browning P-35 (Hi-Power), were and are possibly still are used. I got one of their surplus...

    Morbid question: Prefered guns for suicide.

    NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!!! I worked in a gunshop and a man came in, bought the cheapest .38 spl, (not from me),the kind where you have to remove the cylinder to load, less than $100.00 Apparently, he walked out of the shop, got in his VW beetle, and "ate the gun". His wife came in some...

    .45 GAP, .45 ACP, Springfield XD

    I like the GAP concept and plan to get a Glock 37 this summer when on leave from the big sand box. I like the idea of the 3 extra rounds, lighter weight, and reliabilty. I've got 6 1911s, but found out recently that I like Glocks too.

    Islamic cartoons, merged multiple threads

    I'm in my apartment right now watching an anti Western demonstration (something that rarely ever happens here as the security forces keep a VERY tight control on things) pass by a few hundred yards from my building. I want you to know that I'm doing my part by bombarding them with my potato...

    1956 Issue of GUNS Magazine

    What strikes me is the superior quality compared to today's rags, (excepting Rifle and Handloader).

    US Army Raises Enlistment Age

    "Old age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill." I'm over the 40 limit, but couldn't we do rear echelon jobs, freeing up younger guys to do more frontline operations?

    CPL w/o training? i think its crazy

    If you're carrying concealed, you better be REAL CLEAR about the laws regarding using deadly force. That was the most important part of the training I received in AZ. Using a weapon should only be the absolute, irrefutable last resort. The law will be on the dead or injured persons side...

    So....What To do About Iran?

    Agree with Master Blaster The dollar is here to stay for a long while. I just spoke to some oil people (not ivory tower academics), here, they never heard of this upcomng Bourse, and said if does indeed open, it's not going anywhere. The current way of doing things is too entrenched to...

    So....What To do About Iran?

    Would someone give me a link to information about this "Iranian Boursa", cuz I'm sitting right now on a bizillion barrels of oil here in the UAE and I have never heard one word about this. This country lifts 2 million barrels a day, (about the same as Iran due to Iran's broken down oil drilling...

    USRAC/Winchester is quitting

    Just spoke to a friend who runs a BIG gun shop in Northern Arizona. He said he knew about the closing for a while, there are still lots of guns with the distributors, (he's got $9000.00 worth coming in next week, he plans to hold them for 6 months and let me pick the ones I want when I'm on...

    To invest in Silver Bullion or Firearms?

    One thing I found out in the 1979 silver run up; for example, I buy an oz. of silver today for $5.00, tomorrow the quote is $10., I go back to the dealer, the dealer isn't going to give me anything near $10. he gave $5.25. When there is a hot market the buy-sell spread gets very big to...

    To invest in Silver Bullion or Firearms?

    I'd stick to my guns, have they ever gone down. After the Iranian revolution 1979, when the world economy was in flux and turmoil, the Hunt brothers cornered the silver market and the price went to 20$, gold $800, NIB Colt series 70s 1911s $180.00, where are they now, you do the math.

    So....What To do About Iran?

    Russia surely doesn't want a nuclear Iran on it's doorstep, ready to export nuclear material to Chechniya or any of the other Muslim populated former and present territories that surround it. They won't come out and say it blatently because of the trade they have with Iran, (and their desire to...

    1917 S&W Revolver

    these are fantastic N-frame revolvers and I've had a few, still have one. A new barrel shouldn't be a problem, gunparts.com probably has them. Any good revolver smith should be able to fix this up for not too much $$. the light weight barrel makes this a comfortable gun on the hip. the 45acp...
