    Federal Concealed Carry Permit

    Location- South Dakota Situation- I know this guy who is former Air Force from a country I won't disclose. (Pilot) he is retired, living in South Dakota & is a private pilot for some rich guy. He is here on a green card & he's been waiving around a "Federal Concealed Carry" badge. I did my...

    Bad LGS experiences

    I thought about this, but no firearms where missing nor cash. I was more worried about a tumped up lawsuit coming down the pipe honestly. If they wanna go through all that, i'd rather a gun stolen (insurance) than a lawsuit that could cripple the buisness.

    Bad LGS experiences

    Since no gunstore owners/employees have chimed in yet, thought i'd do so. My worst gunstore experience was a few weeks ago when an elderly man passed out, fell over on 2 fishing rod racks broke a bunch of <deleted> and then his grand daughter screams... "he's not breathing!!" I've never flown up...

    Which came first? HK 91 or FN FAL?

    I have been doing some digging and cant come up with an answer. :banghead: Both weapons are quite similar. :uhoh: Like comparing the AK-47 to the Galil. They are too similar to just be a fluke. Who here is an Assult Rifle nut with a good thick answer? :confused:

    All purpose, defense, fun to take to the range rifle?

    Well, I'm a 5.56 fan since I have 10,000 rounds of it stockpiled in ammo cans w/ silica packets jammed in with them. But, my close second is the Saiga 7.62 AK I picked up a few months ago. Ammo's cheap, gun works well, and is despite AK rumors, very accurate. 7.62x39 hits as hard as a 30-30 &...

    Please tell me about red dots on a black rifle

    Well, as far has quallity and holding zero. The "civillian models" I have experience with don't match up particularly well. You can get great entry level Aimpoints and Eotechs for a fair price. Batteries in an Aimpoint will last up to 8 years on power level 12 I believe. Eotechs last a few...

    Need help w/ an Unlimited Class competition pistol

    Arguing semantics or even bringing them up bugs me a lot. So I'll dumb out the water and call it (a gun with a red dot, and one of those compensator thingys that those competition pistol shooters use) now wasn't it much easier to say "unlimited gun" or "open gun" whichever... doesn't matter...

    Need help w/ an Unlimited Class competition pistol

    Like the title says, I'm wanting to put together an open gun for local competition, but I'm not wanting to go the traditional open class route w/ an STI. I want an all steel frame 1911. I want it to be double stacked in 9mm and I won't be using a stupid c-more sight & a ghost holster. I want to...

    Looking for a Sig P226/Glock 17

    You'll have an easier time getting a glock with your $450 price cap. I wouldint give up my 226 for winged pegisus, let alone $450.

    Putting her through the paces

    My Springfield 1911 TRP. This is my first 1911, firgured I should get one being its the anniversary year. I've always been a double/single action guy. My baby is my Sig P226 Navy. I like it because its tough as nails, 100% reliable and accurate. However, not quite as accurate is this beauty. So...

    FN Scar SSR

    Have heard nothing on that. I have however heard reports that FN will be selling barrels soon. IMO they should have been doing this a long time ago, but I understand that contracts come first. I would rather wait and get an FN barrel than jump the gun and get an aftermarket P.O.S.
