    Odd luck in a background check?

    I have a couple of customers that are always delayed until morning. I have customers with UPIN who get delayed. I have people use their SSN and get delayed. I see no pattern to the delays. Every buyer has a license to purchase in our state. That license number goes into the other official ID box...

    Has Your LGS Raised Prices?

    My prices for guns haven't gone up. They've simply gone back to normal and I'm not getting rid of my inventory at a loss anymore. I only have a few 320's in 45 and a few 938's. We don't sell guns for the measly profit. We do it for our members. We run a private club with an FFL for the benefit...

    Safety Violation Say Something Or MYOB

    I run a private range and club. It's automatic that I say something if I see it.

    So FedEx stopped by.....

    I've had two Kreighoff shotguns left at the front door without a signature by Fedex ground. The front door is on the other side of the building. It was purely the fault of Fedex ground. Fedex Air always rings the bell and holds it if there's nobody at the facility. Our UPS guy is perfect. He's a...

    My problem (as a person working in the industry) with GunBroker

    I run a private club and do gun sales. We do it for the service we provide, not for the profit. If I buy 50 guns that I pay $448 each and sell them for $500 I paid $22,400 to make a profit of $2,600 and it's a lot of time and paperwork to sell 50 guns. A large distributor recently went out of...

    Is it a sin to paint the front sight on a SA revolver?

    I'll use a carbide lighter on the front sight to blacken it with soot, but I can't bring myself to draw paint on a classic SAA. I do like looking at them as much as shooting them. Soot seems to look better for some unknown reason to me.

    Why do gun companies do this?

    Those codes will be an obsolete stain on a timeless firearm in a few years.

    Where do you place your firearm when you visit the toilet?

    I recommend a zombie green holster with your phone number on it, so if you somehow put it down and don't see it before you leave, at least if I'm the next person in the stall, you will get your gun back.

    Alternative to Walmart for ammo purchase?

    I do FFL orders and often Target Sports is lower on some ammo than we can get elsewhere. I will not, however, buy range ammo just because it is simply cheap. Blazer 9mm throws a fireball that Aguila doesn't. I'll choose the slightly more expensive stuff that acts more civilized. If Walmart ammo...

    Percentage of prohibited people who try to buy guns?

    Yes, as the OP, this was my thought. I find guns and shooting to be a right anchored in social and mutual interest. Anyone prohibited, it seems, can't lastingly participate in the culture without seeming disingenuous to themselves.

    Percentage of prohibited people who try to buy guns?

    If a person is prohibited from buying a gun, are they much less likely to try to buy one? I have a general thought, which may be misguided, that prohibited people are more likely to not have any interest in guns because they don't want to remind themselves that they are not allowed to own them...

    which handguns shoot most accuratly for you?

    In one handed shooting, most accurately would be the Feinwerkbau AW93, but most naturally would be the CZ83 that I cleaned up. I don't know why the CZ shoots and points so well for me because it feels short and fat and basically wrong to me, but the groups are tight and in the center. My...

    Bullet or bb hole in glass?

    She didn't say where she was. We were having a conversation about airport vouchers and hotels, so maybe it was near the Atlanta airport?

    NH get's constitutional carry

    My non-resident CC permit has expired in NH. I'm wondering if I need to renew, or if there is now no need? I think I would like to publicly thank my friend, NH state representative Bill Ohm for being one of the good guys. He has shot with us for many years on our bullseye team and I'm very...

    Bullet or bb hole in glass?

    My wife was asking about a hole she saw in the window of her hotel room in Atlanta. She described it as a small hole with a larger hole on the other side. She was describing it as a bullet hole. My thought was it's a bb hole, but I think I remember hearing somewhere that those certain holes in...
