Dear All, I figured that I would ask this question on the board, as it seems germane to S&T. How, if at all, have you changed how you have acted in response to economic conditions. For example, I know that scrap metal has gotten more valuable, so alot of people have locked up their air...

I think a used S&W Model 28 is the best value under $500 Mine cost me $315. It is a wonderful shooter, and a great gun to learn reloading on. I think they are underestimated, as most collectors buy up model 27's instead. The Highway Patrolman has the same guts, but lacks merely the cosmetic...

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/chi-gun-protest_web_15jun15,0,1884762.story Dear All- This really gets me steamed. Hopefully all gunowners can help "vote with their wallets" and buy some quality DS products as a form of "counter protest." Just my 2 cents.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24725781/ They actually described gun owners has hardworking people- and even neutrally discussed the rising costs of assault rifle ammo- accurate because I guess AKs and M16s and the semi-auto clones both use the same ammo.

Thanks for all of your help! Ladies and Gentlemen, Thank you for all your advice. To respond to one post- Old Navy khakis are pretty solid and heavy material, so I think I will be ok with them for CCW. Thank You, Cato the Younger

Dear All- I am acquiring a J-frame for CHL, and I was wondering what the best pocket holster would be. I will be carrying in loose dress pants of the dockers variety, (old navy brand), and I am wondering what pocket holster to use. I am looking for something that is very good at...

Dear All- I am planning a trip to New Orleans. I am a current TX CHL holder, and I have reviewed the LA statutes relating to thier CHL permit, which I understand will be applicable to me. I am left with several questions- 1. What are the "gun free zones" it discussed in the statute...

I vote for the mdl 28 Highway Patrolman I have one, albeit with the 6" barrel, and I think that it is wonderful. I also have a 2.5" mdl 66, which is still shootable, and probably much easier to conceal. Good Luck in your quest for a first pistol!

It is a Model 93- it does not have the rear lugs. Varrok- thanks for the pictures! It has confirmed what I thought about the rilfle- it is nice, but I think I will wait on a model 98 action to sporterize- or just buy a modern ruger. Thanks for all of your help ladies and...

JD Candidate- 2nd year law student However- I still feel that the best part of my education has been actually working (both in a restaurant and as a law office clerk) because it has taught me how to interact with people, as well as how the actual practice (as opposed to academic theory) of law...

I believe that it does cock on closing... Dear All- Like my brother's Lee-Enfield, I believe that this Mauser "cocks on closing" (it takes a significant amount of force to close it), and I believe I hear it cocking, so therefore it is a model 93 or 95. It will be ok to shoot with plain...

Dear All- I have the opportunity to buy a sporterized and scoped Mauser in 7x57 Mauser. It does have the familiar disassembly of the Turkish Mausers and German 98Ks that I have shot, however, it also has a stepped barrel on it. I am wondering if there were any model 1898 mausers...

a further questions as to impressions with juries? Sirs and Ladies- I currently clerk for a criminal defense attorney, so I realize, or rather I am beginning to comprehend, how important perceptions in shaping jurors minds as to guilt or innocence. My question to Mr. Hairless and Mr...

This is advice from my father Ladies and Gentlemen- I am a youth, however, I have learned one phrase rings true, in all my trips to the range- "beware the man with one gun." I have been outshot innumerable times by retired deputies, DPS, police, vets with their model 10s, 19s, 27s, at...

Dear All- I have been saving for a long time, and I now think it is time to get a nice deer rifle. I already have a Marlin 30-30 for close range, but I would like a scoped bolt-action rifle for longer range. I am young (23) so whatever I buy will last me for another 50 years of...
