    just asking

    Curious if Glock might make an AR-15 style weapon. I'm certainly not as knowledgeable about guns as most folks here, but seems like a logical move to me. As much as I like our two Glocks, I'd certainly be interested.

    Best .22 cal rifle

    My dad had a Browning .22 auto that he really liked. Real nice looking gun, high quality, and although he said his eyes were shot... he could hit about anything he wanted to!! He was a WW2 vet that fought the Japanese and carried a BAR when he wasn't using flame thrower.

    view of weapon used

    Since we live in such a politically correct society can weapon choice end up being deciding factor in some legal action? In other words, in an apparently legitimate case of one defending themselves, would law enforcement or a jury look at grandpas old 12 gauge shotgun differently than a...

    Daughter anti-gun

    I think it is a "gun issue" symbolically at least. Her husband and she are very religious and work for the Church and she has even become a vegetarian. She has evolved in to a kind of contrarian on what most folks seem to think is normal, and in general apparently seems to think having a gun...

    Daughter anti-gun

    I think you pretty much nailed it on a lot of points. And.... looking back, we paid for 5 years at the University of Missouri Columbia and she truly did come back much more "liberal" than when she started so that may be part of it. I do appreciate the advice from the younger generation. Thanks...

    Daughter anti-gun

    I'm concerned for my Daughter's safety and she is completely against even looking at a gun. Both my wife and I have concealed carry permits, and guns have been around the house ever since she was a little girl. She has brow beat her husband into submission on the subject too. She lives in the...

    Discussion: "Unintended Consequences"

    My wife bought me a copy two years ago, it was new and covered in plastic. I was aggravated because she paid $50 for it. Later, I checked Amazon and listed it for $250 and it sold immediately. Wasn't aggravated then! After that I checked it out at local library. Good book in my opinion and...

    Is this a problem legally?

    Thanks for the information! And, since I'll be moving to Florida right on the Gulf, I don't want to deal with the rust issue. Again, thanks.

    Is this a problem legally?

    I have several (7) never fired Winchester Commemoratives that I may decide to sell. If I advertise them all at one time, does this make me a "dealer"? I was told an individual can only sell a certain number of guns at one time legally. Thanks

    Abbreviations

    Great Forum, really enjoy and appreciate all of the information however it seems to me the dozens and dozens of abbreviations don't help to quickly read and understand the posts. Looking at the list, it's pretty amazing how long it is. Other than less keystrokes, is there a reason?

    worth it?

    Thanks for the tip, I agree. I want something relatively light and fast, and without a bunch of add on accessories. I like simple. I'd do the 20 gauge if I didn't know the 12 is better all around.

    worth it?

    I have an older Ithaca Model 37 Featherlight 12 gauge with a poly-choke. For the purposes of self defense of my family, do you think it it worth the $$$ to buy a Mossberg 12 gauge pump with 9 shot capacity? I keep shotgun at home, carry a Ruger LCR full time, and have Glock 19 and 26 that...

    wonder what I did wrong

    Cleaned my brother in laws first generation Glock 17 and afterwards the slide wants to go to the lock position when I rack it. thanks

    Do you prefer a large quantity of ammo, or more guns?

    Compromise. 12 gauge mossberg pump 1000 rounds Glock 26, 1000 rounds Ruger lcp .380 500 rounds. So a "few guns" and "quite a bit" of ammo.
