    Hey guys, i have a question about possessing firearms on a college campus (specifically Purdue University) in the state of Indiana - First, if I have a firearm in my car (on campus) am I committing a crime (potentially violating campus policy, yes, but are there legal issues here?)...

    What gun for the trunk?

    SKS. Cheap, handy, reliable. Uses common, reasonably inexpensive ammo. Plus they're pretty close to indestructable.

    Soviet aircraft gun tribulations

    Of course we put guns that large on our planes, only difference is that we succeeded. See: A-10 Warthog and the 30mm GAU-8 Avenger Cannon, 4,200 RPM of Armor-piercing 30mm death as seen below. EDITTED - Missed the "on a small plane" part, my fault. Regardless, cool picture.

    crime guns

    Some data from this article http://www.firearmsid.com/Feature%20Articles/0900GUIC/Guns%20Used%20in%20Crime.htm Some of its old, but I think most of the info would probably hold true, probably with with cheap semiautomatic handguns being more popular than they used to (my theory)...

    So...what gun next?

    Handguns, under current Missouri Law, require a police issued Permit to transfer, even for private transfers. Technically, possession age is 18+ in Missouri, but the Permit law makes it illegal to acquire the handgun (even as a gift from a parent, you can't even let a friend/relative take your...

    Beginner Shotgun questions! Impress the noob =P

    I'll help you where i can - First, yes, normal pistol grips are pretty much useful for anything other than some painful fun, really no other application. Luckily, switching out the stock is a very easy process, basically removing a screw, and then screwing the new stock on. Takes a few...

    M-44 Questions/About to be new owner

    I own an M-44. To my knowledge, they are not chrome lined. As far as cheap *commercial* ammo, you best bet is probably Wolf, which is honestly not that cheap. Its usually at least 5 to 8 bucks a box from what i've seen. However, if your willing to do an extra 5 mintues of cleaning when...

    DD manufacturers

    While this doesn't really answer you question.... The way i understand it is that EACH RPG WARHEAD is considered a destructive device... Ie - 200 bucks and a few months every time you want to touch her off... Repeal the NFA!

    Are there ANY gun laws which are justified?

    Rero360 - Since 1934 (when the NFA was enacted) ONE legally owned machinegun has been used in a murder. An ex-cop used a personally owned MAC-10 or 11 to murder his neighbor, as I recall. Conversely, illegally owned machineguns have turned up in crime quite a bit. Amazing how the law...

    Are there ANY gun laws which are justified?

    Taliv - thats different. Legislating the discharge of firearms into the air is legislating dangerous behavior, not firearms right. Its like saying "If there truly were no gun laws, i'd be allowed to shoot people", which is 100% incorrect. Murder, or discharging a firearm into the air...

    Good C&R Pistol for pocket carry

    He states he isn't old enough to legally purchase a handgun in MO. That means he doesn't have a C&R license either. He says he is not old enough to purchase/recieve a new manufacture handgun in Missouri, or purchase any pistol through an FFL (federal law = 21 to acquire through an FFL, we...
