    A little ID help on top break 38 5 shot

    Thank you for your reply. I will most likely send the info to Smith & Wesson with my check. I think this will add value for my son. Family artifacts are too often discarded because the next generation does not know the history of the item and thus the intrinsic value. Thanks again, Alan

    10 yr old daughter wants her first gun

    I would check with a local gun club. Many of them have excellent youth shooting programs and hunter safety classes. You will most likely find a bulletin board with good deals on used equipment. I know that I am glad I got my son involved with a good club. Plus I made some good friends in the...

    florida state of emergency and firearm handling?

    I saw it under the laws regarding "state of emergency" it says no one other than law enforcement is allowed to have a firearm in a public place during a state of emergency. Unfortunately I do not remember where i found it. I will post a link when I find it again. Thanks

    florida state of emergency and firearm handling?

    First thanks to every one for a great forum. My question is this. I understand that when the Governor declares a state of emergency that concealed carry is no longer allowed but can you still carry in your car? ie. glovebox etc. Thanks.

    Anschutz match 64 sight

    you can also try champion shooters supply or champions choice. I think they will both be at Camp Perry this year. You can try the message board over at target talk. Lots of individuals with extra anschutz bits and parts. Also a great resource for the competitive small bore shooter. Good luck

    Softest shooting .40 Pistol

    I shoot an STI Edge in 40 S&W. I find it very pleasant to shoot. My wife likes to shoot it :) ( she usually chooses it for our range trips) and she does not like to shoot any of the other 40 S&W's. The only negative would be the price. I think it was worth the money but I am a gun nut.
