    Background Check Poll

    Let's correct the very temporary problem of losing this one. http://news.yahoo.com/ticket/ Halfway down on the right.

    Utube of marlin talks lack of quality

    I bought a 45-70 (1895GBL) last year and had to send it in for repairs due to improperly cut rifling. While no gun should need sent back new out of the box, I must be fair to say they were easy to work with, if perhaps a little slow (probably all the other Marlins getting sent back at them)...

    George R Brown Convention Center- 30.06?

    It is posted for the regular gun shows (High Caliber), but the signs seem temporary and as such likely to be only for the show itself, which makes sense. I couldn't tell you more than that, unfortunately - I don't go anywhere near downtown unless to a gun show.

    Getting pulled over as a passenger

    While I agree with the OP to some extent as to not needing to declare when you aren't the driver, I think this is the best advice that can be given. It won't hurt anything. Standing up for your rights in pointless scenarios for the sake of pride alone does not accomplish anything to be proud...

    Petition asking Sig Sauer to stop sales to LE/G'ubbmint

    Keep in mind that it could certainly (and correctly) be argued even by a public company that restricting sales to LE/gov in these states along with the rest of the industry might be necessary to ensure continued volume of sales to the civilian markets from which most of their profits come.

    Mossberg 930 Tube extension

    The Nordic ones come with the spring and instructions on trimming it to proper length. Not sure about the other manufacturers, but you should be able to ask them. If going with the Nordic option, be sure to buy the package/kit, not just the tube - that way you get the spring as well. Retail...

    Browning Auto 5 Fire Damaged Rusty Whippet Gun

    That's the mental image I was getting from the idea of "testing" as well, though I guess hardness testing should be possible enough with a known good barrel around that you don't mind making a small dent in. Besides, worst case is you get a nice explosion and a non-boring day. Will be watching...

    Browning Auto 5 Fire Damaged Rusty Whippet Gun

    The plastic follower for the action spring in the receiver was intact as per the last video. While I agree with you on the solder, I'm fairly certain that polymer would be done for long before the steel was damaged. I'm sure he will be careful, either way - there are plenty of ways to go about...

    Browning Auto 5 Fire Damaged Rusty Whippet Gun

    Poor Auto-5. :( Good luck bringing it back to life. EDIT: Noteworthy from the last video, there was a plastic spring guide still intact in the gun - so it's doubtful it was in very much heat for very long. I'm sure that plastic would be turned to glue well before the heat treatment of the...

    Had an informative talk with my congressman

    I think when he mentioned "gun show loophole" he meant to potentially allow something that bans unchecked sales *AT GUNS SHOWS* and nowhere else. Would be funny to watch the anti's whip the crowds into a frenzy in support of it, claiming their "huge victory," just to have everyone realize right...

    Mossberg 930 Tube extension

    I would recommend Nordic as well, the price is worth it. I'm not sure if you can fit a +3 or not, but a +2 will certainly work as mentioned. You might get the +3 on there if you want it. It may stick out just slightly, but there's no harm in it aside from looks. You can get the clamp as...

    Iowa 2nd District Meeting

    We need more legislators that work like this. It would be nice if he were firmly in our camp, but he seems to be more concerned with doing anything right than spewing party rhetoric. Of course, he's a politician and will always try to appear as such, but hosting discussions in his area before...

    Occupy Sacramento

    It will take someone over there working hard to organize it, promote it, prepare it. You will need as close to every gun owner in the state as you can get to do it for it to be effective, and right now the first reaction of many is to give up and just leave (which works, screw that state...

    CNN iReport Debate: Right to bear arms!

    I think everyone who has the time should do this, even if they aren't sure about CNN's record. The last one of these they did a few weeks ago, asking for pictures from AR-15 owners with a message, resulted in quite a few well-reasoned submissions being posted. At the worst, if you submit a...
