Strambo, I forgot about the extended mag tube! I heard that the extended mag tubes make the mag less reliable and a side saddle is more effective. Any truth to this? What size extended mag tube do you have? Also, I currently have a ribbed barrel. I think I'd like to get one without a rib...

Ah, that's unfortunate. I was looking forward to pulling up a history on my Grandpa's M1.

LOL, the 26" (?) barrel is the first main problem. I'm thinking about going for the side saddle holder because it's closest to the magazine and I could load with my weak hand. I'll admit, some of the stuff I want because I think it looks good or I just want to screw around.

Thanks for the ghost ring suggestion. I was thinking about a folding stock for the shotgun. I'm not a big fan of the adjustable stock setups for shotguns. Any mfg suggestion for that? What other goodies should be included?

That's a good point.

Police aren't legally required to protect any person but are they required to help you if you're being attacked? In my mind, protect means make sure you don't get hurt 24/7 which is understandable. If a guy was getting stabbed and a cop just walked by, I can't imagine he wouldn't get charged.

I've got a Remington 870 Express Super Magnum 12ga. that I'd like to modify. I'd like to put ghost ring sights on, I'd like a shorter barrel, 18" or so, and a side-saddle shell holder. I was looking at the ghost ring sights/ heat shield from Cheaper Than Dirt but a customer service rep told...

I may be way off on this but I think if there was a kid choking on something and a Doctor was nearby but, say, on vacation, he'd be held responsible if he did nothing and the kid died. So, if Doctors, nurses, EMT's, etc are legally obligated to help if someone is in need while they're off...

Yeah, it'd be best to walk away. I think.

I remember years ago there was a place where you could look up the history of an M1 Garand. Does anyone know where that is?

Damn, nice find! I wish I could get a deal like that.

I'd assume if she was a flight attendant she'd have to have some level of clean background. So... she shouldn't have had any problem getting a permit. Strange.

That's a sweet looking AK.

Really cool thread. Nice setups!

I wanted to make my future room have a strong Japanese influence. A bit like a Dojo but with rifles mounted on every spot on the wall. ... That may be a PITA to keep clean though now that I think about it. :P
