    Transport handgun into NY for repairs?

    I live in Pa. and want to transport a handgun to a gunsmith in NY state. I am told that the NY state police take a dim view of out of state residents bringing any handgun into the state for any purpose and, if discovered, I will most certainly be arrested. I thought there was a federal law...

    My gun show experiences as a dealer

    UBC and special interests Years ago, licensed plumbers in NJ routinely designed and installed septic systems in rural areas. I never heard of a problem with them and everybody I knew in rural southern Jersey had such a system. Then, some college educated engineers decided they needed a part...

    Whats the plan now?

    push back Right now, as things stand, although there is a law that the govt. cannot put together a federal gun registry, the means to do so exists and is being zealously guarded by the BATF. That means is all the physical documents of gun transfers from 1986 to present and the gun logs of all...

    Alan Gura Begins Attack on "May-Issue" Carry Laws

    I live right over the border of NY (in Pa) and can't even transport my legally owned pistol to a gunsmith in NY without risking arrest, nor can I transport my legally owned handguns to the NY range/gun club just over the border to shoot it.

    Sentimental?

    Sell a gift? I was raised that it is rude to sell a gift. If you accept a gift, implicit in that acceptance is an acknowledgement that the gift will be valued and kept. I remember when my son as a young adult needed a vehicle and I gave him one I was quite miffed when he immediately sold...

    Seller Misrepresenting S&W Revolvers on Gunbroker

    The attitudes of some on this thread cause me to feel ill. Just because you may be gun savvy enough to avoid a scam in purchasing a gun doesn't mean that others just beginning this journey are not deserving of a heads-up or that they deserve to be cheated due to their inexperience (a situation...

    Getting my first gun

    30-30 marlin lever action will not beat you up and allow you to concentrate on sight picture, breathing and trigger squeeze, the basics of marksmanship. You should be able to pick up a good used one for $300-$350 and have enough left over for a pair of electronic hearing protectors (ALWAYS use...
