NPR is very liberal. Basically, they are anti gun. They don't want to hear about positive applications of personal self defense. There is no formal "list" of taboo subjects. To do so would reveal their leftist slant. I live in the swamp and the only radio I get is country, rap or NPR...

Ask the local LEO to run the serial #. DO NOT turn it in to them unless it's stolen. Possession is 90%? of ownership? Can you go to a FFL and run the serial#? Make an effort, document the effort, be prudent. Don't play BTAFE.

Illegal guns are legal guns until they pass the border to Mexico. Legal guns in the hands of illegals are still legal guns. It's just illegal for an illegal person to have a legal gun. There is no such thing as an illegal gun. Only illegal for a person to possess a type of gun. A man may...

When comparing mechanically different systems, there is no room for non mechanical reasoning. The reason a revolver is classified differently from a pistol is because of the mechcanics. Sometimes simple ain't to some. Moderator? Beuler? Moderator?

If he had come up and said "Hey y'all, my horses are getting spooked/my wife works 3rd shift, etc,..." then maybe I would've worked with the guy. Since he was cussing, being unreasonable, then I would've given him no quarter. File charges, fire at all hours at random. After a few weeks of...

If you fire a semi-auto, a round is replaced in the pipe, wether or not you pull the trigger again. If you fire a revolver, there is no round in the pipe, UNTIL you pull the trigger again. Simple. Question answered/explained. End of thread maybe?

maybe a 20 ga. sxs coach gun? Simple, reliable, classic.

NC resident but work a lot in SC. In NC, IWB/OWB concealed but no big deal if it shows or prints. In SC only option is concealed, so IWB, or anywhere with P3AT. Given my druthers, OWB 4 o'clock and giving a crap whether or not it shows. Blatant exposure OC isn't for me though (too much...

If it weren't for sites such as this, my encounter probably would have turned out bad. Similar encounters and advice given enabled me to act accordingly and also see it from a LEO perspective. I am forever grateful for information and opinions given. Geronimo, I'm always nice and polite...

Ok, now that I got your attention. This was straight from the mouth of a Summerville, SC PO!!! I merged in front of a marked police vehicle while exiting a bank and sat at a red light for a while with him behind me. As the light turned and we started moving, he lit me up and I waved out...

It's been years since I have been in a gun store (not pawn shop) and, being somewhat new to the SC Lowcountry, I went to ATP in Summerville. The parking lot had ~2 dozen cars on a Thursday morning. I walked in and.....I was in the Willie Wonka's of gun stores!!!! I've been to gun shows with...

Thank goodness Waldorf's daughters weren't named Dianne & Rianna. But then again, his products may have gone off at inopportune moments or exploded and not had so many FTE.

Some people will complain about just about anything. Wal-Mart is NOT a gun store, they are NOT an electronics store, they are NOT a vacuum store, etc, etc.. The employees generally don't care when stuff comes in, they just stock stuff that comes in. They are generally not salespersons, just...

It would be easy to disseminate factual information concerning gun laws if the media would publish facts and the laws/restrictions accurately without left-leaning bias. But that's like trying to pick up a turd from the clean end.

Ya know y'all, it's not the particular companies involved, it's the individual workers. I ordered a Big Mac w/o onions---guess what? I blame only the worker, not the company. I didn't throw the food back in through the drive-in window and start yelling at the person that just handed me the...
