    Have you ever been struck by a ricochet?

    Shooting in the Nevada desert on our anual trip I was cut by a flying piece of a bullet jacket. It hit my side and sliced me about an inch worth. Not too deep but it hurt like heck.

    .30 Carbine versus bear?

    While in Alaska 2 years ago a fishing guide I ran into said he would not use anything but a 12 gauge with slugs. In close quarters he said they work best.

    Mauser Rifle?

    I have 2 Mausers and one is a tack driver, 2" at 100 yards all day. The second one is 4-5 inches even with handloads. I have done nothing to either rifle just luck of the draw. The funny thing is that the best groups I have gotten have been from the cheapest surplus gun show ammo I could...

    Get the colt first and then the 870 that is how I would do it. I love my 870 by the way I biought it in 76 and have put 10,000 rounds through it without a hickup. Great guns.

    How much ammo do you own?

    Just in surplus and colectible ammo for firearms I shoot once in a great while I have 10,000 rounds in firesafes. The rest I use and recycle as frequently as possible so it can go from 1-5000 in a hurry. Component wise I have about 5000 rounds as well. I willl buy 1000 rounds if I get a deal...

    Gun store loser

    Up until the point he started following me and got my defense mechanism going I was playing along. I never said I didn’t like his music I only said it was annoying to have it playing while shopping for a firearm. I don’t particularly like it when someone comes into my place of business and...

    Gun store loser

    I don’t normally judge people that is better left to a higher authority. Today I went into a particularly open-minded gun store today and was looking over a Kimber I have been lusting for. The sound of a movie catches my ear as a young adult with his pants half on his ??? comes walking over...

    Oh... oh, wow!

    Tammara welcome to reloading, I have made a lot of pilgrimages to used book stores in search of the holy grails of reloading. In these stores I usually find any number of older reloading manuals or reload starter books. To go about this business blindly is like handing a monkey a match and a...

    THR: Which gun for space aliens?

    I would just invite them over for some of my Moms tamales, they would never leave. A nice ball peen hammer would get them easily while they rest. Disposal may be an issue unless they taste good. Then it a freezer space issue.:D

    Deputy orders unarmed man to ground, then kills him.

    I feel for all parties involved. To have to make that call and take a mans life is regretable. Situations like this dont just come up. It takes both parties to have the scene. I dont think an unarmed man should have died here but, when you involve non cooperation and 4 people I guess you would...
