    Incidents of gun violence in countries without guns?

    I don't have any links, but I would look into violence in Washington D.C. We know how much violence goes on there despite having a complete ban on handguns. I would also be interested in what you are asking.

    CCW Question on what to do

    As far as I'm concerned, it depends on if he has some sort of weapon himself. Coming towards me yelling and screaming with no weapon (knife, stick, baseball bat, gun, etc.) in his hands would not cause me to draw. I would speak calmly and motion for him to stay back while I'm backing away and...

    Selling FTF?

    I'm sure this has been asked before. I did a search, but it was like looking for a needle in a haystack. What are the legalities of selling FTF? Is there anything that needs to be done?

    Rusted/siezed choke tube-Help!

    Thanks for all the great info guys! I had another guy recommend Kroil to me. Good to know it will not hurt the blueing. I'm gonna get some and try it in the next couple of days. Also, does anyone know where I can get a choke tube wrench like HSMITH recommended? I've been looking for one...

    Rusted/siezed choke tube-Help!

    I have a choke tube in my Browning Gold which I think has rusted and I cannot remove it with the key-type choke tube wrench. Anyone have any suggestions?

    DFW Area Training

    I have never taken a handgun training class and would like to. Anyone know of a good class in the DFW area? I'm already fairly competent when it comes to shooting. What I'm wanting is to really get my abilities razor-sharp. So I am not wanting someone to show me how to load and which end...

    Do's and don'ts of running a gunshop?

    Well, looks like I got less than worst case scenario then. The thing that really pissed me off was when I realized he was selling an $800 MSRP gun for $1050 + giving me worst case scenario on trade. Like I said, I admit I could have gone elsewhere. From now on, I will.

    Do's and don'ts of running a gunshop?

    I've traded 2 guns before and didn't get 50% of sales price on trade on either one. The 2nd deal I think I got screwed royally, but went ahead with it anyway because I was in a hurry. My loss. Here are the specifics: Traded a $900 MSRP rifle wearing a $700 MSRP scope. No scratches, mint...

    The New SiG P220C - Wow

    Does it only come with the DAK trigger? I can't stand DA only.

    Taking my CCW class tomorrow!

    What do you guys recommend bringing to the class (besides weapon and ammo of course)? It will be an all day affair. So I'm bringing water and something to snack on for certain. Anything else you guys wished you would have brought?

    I had a confrontation today...do you think I handled it well?

    Sounds like you were calm, cool and collected. What more can anyone ask? If you had said anything to him it would have probably escalated into much more since it sounds like he was trying to push you there anyway. You were cool and level-headed in a tense situation. A+

    Just got through watching Deliverance!

    What gets me about the movie is how little those guys knew about camping and survival. You get the impression that Burt Reynolds' character knew a few things, but the others seemed clueless. Even one of the other guys, who apparantly owned his own bow, could not force himself to kill a deer...

    Just got through watching Deliverance!

    OK, let's stay on track here. I want to discuss waterproofing your guns and ammo. I figured ammo would be sealed enough to be reliable. Guns can operate with moisture, but don't let them sit too long without cleaning. Am I right so far? I've often thought about keeping my handgun inside...

    Just got through watching Deliverance!

    And I was reminded why I am so adamant about carrying my handgun on camping trips! But I got to thinking about the whole issue of water. What would you do to keep your firearm/ammo dry, but yet still be able to quick draw on some toothless, brain-damaged, genetically-deprived butt pirate?

    Currently produced 10 guages?

    My father owns a Browning Gold Light 10 in all black. He bought it about 3 years ago. FWIW, I know of 2 friends whose doctors told them to stop shooting their 10 guages for ducks due to persistent neck and shoulder problems. Hunting turkeys is different since you don't pull the trigger as...

    Have you ever had a dream in which you can't shoot?

    I can't count the number of times I've been dreaming about that huge 10-point buck in my crosshairs and I cannot pull the trigger with all my strength! The buck just stands there looking at me and I can't do anything!

    Auction: how much would you bid?

    What I've seen work best at auctions (DU, NWTF, RMEF etc.) is to have an assortment of guns in medium to low price range. And you want at least 1 high priced firearm available. This is because you will have an assortment of people in attendance. You want THIS auction to be profitable as well...

    One Shot Stopping Stats on Goats.

    I know little bullets can do big damage. A couple of years ago some idiot was arrested in AR for illegally shooting an elk with a .22lr. 1 shot to the neck and the elk dropped in it's tracks.
