    Ammo to Hawaii

    <------------Former TSA worker as of less than a year ago in a town that has an enormous tourism hunting industry. So, yes, I am correct, as far as the Feds are concerned. Considering there are numerous airlines, and each has their own restrictions, I chose to give the FAA/TSA rules since...

    Ammo to Hawaii

    As far as carrying ammo in checked baggage, you can carry an unlimited amount in your checked baggage as long as it is packaged properly (in factory boxes, or containers designed to hold ammo...magazines DO NOT count) and is .50 cal (or 8ga) or lower. Any kind of loose ammo is a big no-no...that...

    What do you look for in a Gun Shop?

    There are three things that will keep me coming back to a Gun Store: 1. Friendly, helpful staff. - If your staff is rude to me, I'll take my money elsewhere. Answers of "I don't know." and that's it, really turn me off. An answer of, "That's a good question, I don't know the answer off hand...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    That's a good point, actually. I know I had been told that you can be charged under the trespass statute, but the way it's worded seems to indicate that it's not true. I certainly do not wish to be a test case. Besides, in my experiences, the only times I've seen non-conforming signs was also...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    So just an update. I did not get an email back from Alan Korwin, but I didn't really expect to. I'm guessing he's a very busy man, and it's difficult to respond to every email sent his way. I have about a 25% track record of getting responses from people like him, but it was worth a try...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    Thank you Frank. Even through all of that, I hadn't even thought to look at the Criminal Trespass statute. I was looking for an answer in the "gun" statutes. I'll still await the email from Alan Korwin, just to see what he says about it, but I have a feeling he's going to site that law.

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    This is absolutely true. Regardless of who is right about private no gun signs, you must obey the ones in bars and restaurants that serve alcohol. In addition, there is NO Constitutional carry in those locations whether they have a sign or not. You must have a permit. I'd recommend getting...

    Sig 2022 vs. Glock 19 vs. XD vs. S&W M&P

    Oh, I don't have difficulty with the trigger or DA triggers in general, I should have clarified that. Actually, I have the NY-1 spring in my Glock, and absolutely love it, so my preference of triggers is likely skewed from most people. My backup is an LCR, and that's another trigger I really...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    Unfortunately, the Internet is sketchy when it comes to hard evidence. To be honest, I would love to be proven wrong. But for me, the potential cost (jail time, fine, loss of gun ownership rights, etc) simply isn't worth the risk. I don't have enough money to fight a charge like that and try to...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    Good thing you don't live in AZ anymore then. I can only comment on what I know and have been told. I've been told by about 10 different authorities on the matter (including a lawyer who lost a case on the issue). Plus, handgunlaw.us agrees with me, and that site is probably the best online...

    Sig 2022 vs. Glock 19 vs. XD vs. S&W M&P

    My wife bought a 2022 back in September. She likes it. It appears to be a value, compared to Glocks/XD's/M&P's, but then you open the box and see one mag. Then you go back to the LGS, and see they are out, and when they do have them, they're over $50 a piece. Then you look online, and they're...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    Just wanted add another thing. I didn't just speak with TPD. I spoke with a couple of Pima County Sheriff's Deputies, as well as a DPS Officer. I've had the same problems finding answers to what a no gun sign means in Arizona...so I've asked basically everyone who would have knowledge who I've...

    New Member? Introduce yourself here (just intros, questions get answered elsewhere)

    New to The High Road, not quite as new to guns. I've been shooting since the late 80's. I grew up in Alaska and Northern California. Currently, I live in S. Arizona. I used to mostly be a rifle shooter, but in the last couple years have branched off to handguns, and last year obtained my CCW...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    Thanks for the welcome. I'll post a proper intro in a moment. I just saw this last night and wanted to keep the OP from getting in trouble. :) EDIT: Replying to the person who replied to me while I was replying. :) You don't have to take my word for it. If you don't think that's the law, I...

    Too many "No Guns" signs in AZ

    You are absolutely wrong. This is terrible advice if you live in AZ. No gun signs DO have force of law. A no gun sign is your notice that carrying is trespassing. You can get arrested for trespassing and misconduct involving a firearm if caught carrying on the premises of an establishment that...
