    Selling off my collection - trying to "cut the cord"

    It was one of the best actions I have ever taken. I would rather have fewer weapons I know completely and can operate flawlessly. There was no practicality for me to have so many choices when I only shot a few of them anyway. It's not about being in "the game". It's about being a reasonable and...

    Saving shell casings?

    Scrap value for #1 clean brass has hovered around 2.00/ lb in my area. I scrap as a sideline and usually the only recyclable brass I turn in are household items, drum cymbals, misc. parts. Spent casings are obviously worth more down the re-use stream.

    Want So Bad To Buy From a LGS...

    i draw the line when I decide to put money in someone's pocket who I know and like to do business with. You do a few transactions like that and you start getting the benefits from doing business like that. Taxes will always be there whether we like it or not.

    Unsettling encounter - am I being paranoid? (Long)

    Crazy is crazy, and always will be. That's why we protect ourselves.

    Survival of the fittest wins again. The problem is new bad guys keep showing up.

    Accident at Local Range

    Rampid? The writer of the range statement would make a far better argument, in the face of any possible detractors, if he spell-checked before sending his letter to publication. Jussayin'.

    Question on my friends thinking?

    Just weird and unnecessary.

    Family Death - Ammo Disposal

    Sorry about your brother. Once you decide to sell/ donate anything, you must let it go. I have sold things to folks who I believed would keep them or use them. For most people that is just a discount so they can upsell. Been there. We helped a family at church with some donations and later...

    Getting burned by hot brass?

    It happens. It also makes an awesome story.

    Where do you stow your gear and how much do you take whe you leave home.

    If somewhat dressy, my Beretta Nano (or other) cc's at about four-thirty. My new 5.11 5-in-1 jacket has room for a lot more. The small zippered pockets at the cuffs are awesome for a multitool in the left and a spare mag in the right. Cargo pants are to me a big signal that a guy is just...

    Went to a gun show...

    There should only be gun/ gun accessories vendors at gun shows. Anything else detracts from the spirit of the event.

    "NO RELOADS!" at new gun range... really?

    That is the norm at every corporate gun range in MN. I wouldn't waste my money there anyway. AND, it probably wouldn't matter if you did tell them why you are boycotting them.
