    Quality rifle for decent price

    If your going for three gun then a AR is the way to go. I would recomend LMT. They are not the cheapest but quality is on par with Colt for much less. Save money and buy used. Check out the trading post here or the equipment exchange on AR15.com. There will always be a few lightly used LMTs...

    Shooting in St. Louis Missour?

    2TransAms I have driven by that range quite a few times. It looks pretty nice, and is about as close to me as the highland range. Is it open to the public at all or a members only type deal?

    Guns WILL be banned, and banned soon. MY REPLY TO 1ST THREAD

    "Animal Farm" "The Giver" "Fahrenheit 451" These are all good books to educate children early on as to the dangers of communism/socialism/liberalism. Interestingly enough all three were required reading for me in school. My daughters attend the same schools I went to. "The Giver" was...

    Talk me out of buying a M1 Carbine

    It is a full stock. I don't know enough about them to know if it has been rebuilt or not, but @ $650 I willl assume it has been redone. Frankly I'm just buying it to be a range toy so the effectiveness of the caliber, and such does not matter to me. We will see what Fridays paycheck looks like...

    what is your "bedside" gun?

    Under the bed lurks a 6920, equiped with an Aimpoint, and Surefire. If things go bump in the night 30 rounds of 75gr Black Hills bumps back. I have a large dog, alarm, and sleep upstairs. No uglies will make it upstairs to my family in the wee hours of the morning.

    Every animal feels pain. The only moral, ethical way to kill is quickly.

    Talk me out of buying a M1 Carbine

    (mumbles while taking cover in my nomex tent) Never much cared for Garands :uhoh: . There is just little appeal in them to me. Although the silly prices they fetch today may also be a part of that. I have my Grandfathers M1911 he carried in N.Africa and would like a rifle (er um long arm) to...

    Talk me out of buying a M1 Carbine

    I have always had a desire to own a M1 Carbine, but always put off the purchase of one for something else. Well watching Saving Private Ryan the other night on T.V renewed my desire to own one of these little gems. A local shop has a decent looking Winchester on the rack for $650 I noticed the...

    Tell me about Auto Ordinance 1911 pistols

    Spelling aside it is my understanding that Kahr makes them now FWIW. Its not too late to change my mind as the deposit is refundable. They also had a Rock Island Armory GI 1911 as well. Side by side though the AO appeared to be better quality. All I'm looking for is a no frills (I hate forward...

    Tell me about Auto Ordinance 1911 pistols

    Tell me about Auto Ordinance 1911 pistols. I was looking for a Springfield Mil-Spec but being unable to find one I put down a deposit on a AO 1911A1. Are these decent pistols?

    What would you Change the US Assault rifle to

    HK 416 in 6.8. There are few other rifle designs out there that match the AR in ergonomics, weight, and accuracy. The piston system would end the "s**ts where it eats" debate and 6.8 would end the poodle shooter name calling.

    Tobacco use while hunting.

    I have a big zippered bag that our bed spread came in. I wash my hunting clothes in plain water, and store them in that bag with leaves, sticks, and other assorted natural items. I shower in the morning before hunting, but don't use shampoo, soap, or any other smelly things. First thing I do...

    Is it legal to own a SAM or MANPADS (surface to air missiles) in the United States?

    I recall a thread a few months ago where the poster asked if Nuclear Weapons were allowed to be registered as DDs. The answer btw was a firm NO! In a post 9/11 world I can think of no way that a private individual would be allowed to own any form of guided missile. In fact just asking about it...

    "Your" gun.

    It would be either my pre-ban Colt 6520 or my Kimber Custom 1911. Both are sweet guns, and my favorites out of my collections.

    Why does Ruger not go ahead and make a M-14

    I had no idea Armalite did that :cool: . Now theres a company I would glady do businees with. I hope they follow Barretts example and stop selling/servicing their rifles for gorvernment types in Illinois if an Illinois AWB passes. The ISP currently issue Armalites.

    Winchester White Box stories you have heard....

    I have shot thousands and thousands of rounds of WWB in 9mm, 45acp, 40S&W, and .223. It is good reliable ammo, accurate, and cheap. My practice/range ammo has been, is, will forever be WWB, and American Eagle. Now I could point you in the direction of many inferior brands of plinking...

    Why does Ruger not go ahead and make a M-14

    Ha......why no new M14 clones you ask The reason nobody is building new M14 clones is simple. One only needs to buy a box of .308 to learn the answer. I cannot and nor can most people afford to plink with .308 nowdays. Hell I bought a 9mm upper just so I could afford to shoot my ARs more than...

    Need info for class: How easy to convert a gun to full auto?

    The M16 only has one extra part over the AR15 (unless your talking about M16s with a burst setting). The internal parts are all the same size and very similar in looks. The parts that vary in a M16 vs an AR15 are the hammer, trigger, selector, disconector, and bolt carrier. The AR15 also lacks...
