    Northern Illinois University Shooting

    It's a shame only one of the 150 to 200 people in that room had a gun. :fire: Thanks Peters! I see a lot of anit-gun legislation in our states near future thanks to this statement, 'rapid-fire assault'. Its started already :cuss:

    Insurance cancelled because gun business doesn't meet their eligibility requirements!

    I was just informed my home owners insurance is being cancelled because I own/run my gun business from my home and my wife has a daycare business on the premises. Keep in mind I only sell 4 - 6 guns a month its a hobby type business for now, I also work full time. I don't stock mass quantities...

    Who carries handcuffs?

    Handcuffs yes I agree its a bad idea for an untrained person to attempt to handcuff someone, not even mentioning the fact of using them as a deterant is even worse. But CCW badges don't belong on the street???

    (wholesale) Distributors--why do they even exist?

    Don't forget Walmarts model is to bully mfgr's. As in "we'll give you a contract to buy 10,000 of your widgets per year but we'll pay you $10 less per widget so we can sell them cheaper than anyone else and still turn a hefty profit" + we only pay our employee's $7 an hour and wonder why...

    (wholesale) Distributors--why do they even exist?

    I'll give you a good example of why distributors exist. When I tried a Glock group buy I contacted Glock to buy directly from them. They require a minimum $50,000 initial order with a minimum $25,000 order per year after that. I would venture to say most dealers, my self included, can't afford...

    Sports Authority removing gun/archery items

    I personally think its great they quit carrying guns. We don't have one locally but I had the chance to visit one in Amarillo Tx early last year, along with a Gander Mountain. I found both of their selections to be extremely mainstream. By that I mean nothing but hunting type sporting arms, no...

    Anti-gay protesters taunt war mom

    Ya that POS and his 'followers' showed up in Virden, IL to protest Sgt. Harpers funeral. I went to high school with him in Virden he was a good person. I wished that there wouldn't have been such a strong police presence there to keep the peace. If the police would've backed off for awhile I...

    Video game gun violence

    Playing a video game is the same as watching a movie, IMHO. In a video game you just get to play the character. Its entertainment pure and simple. A $50 single player video game gets you 20+ hours of entertainment, not bad considering goin to the movies cost $25 and lasts 2 hours. A good...

    Anyone ship a firearm UPS or FedEx?

    I'm new to the whole shipping guns too. I've been shipping them out now for about two months, just a couple a week. I use FedEx, I bugged the crap out of the counter lady the first few weeks so now I think I've got it down. Nothing is required really, just drop it in a box and weigh it. Costs...
