    Hit by a bounce back!

    Public restroom oops

    Once my wife and I where at a discount store, and I had noticed the security guard was wearing an empty holster! This was long before I brought my first firearm and got interested in our culture, so i had no idea what i was looking at, thinking "what good is an empty holster, what is he going to...

    i would like to know what kind of guns your wife likes to shoot?

    The wife prefers my GP100 to the m&p 9mm she shot at a rental range, but lusts for a Taurus model 94, in her mind, high capacity, it's a revolver(we like them) and it doesn't have any recoil.

    Shooting While Pregnant?

    we did it! My wife needed to blow off some steam after a stressful day, we went to an outdoor range on a day during the week and used ammo meant for indoor ranges that has less lead exposure, and now i have a healthy son.

    Getting to my children upstairs

    +1... make that more than one on the baby gate being a barrier, it won't stop anyone, bit will slow anyone down, maybe putt bells on it, also the dog, my pit makes a bark or two for anyone at the front door, my brother has a Yorkie that starts ww3 as soon as we pull into his driveway, and the...

    Why Some Shells "Stick"?

    my guess is with the light gun and heavy recoil the cheeper bullets might be coming unseated and protruding through the front of the chambers. the more $$$ bullets might have a tighter crimp¿

    Why a Revolver?

    I voted style, my one and only firearm is a 4" gp100. I chose based only on the way it looked/felt in my hand(and easier sell past the wife). A few months after I had a chance to shoot a m&p .40 and i am very glad i chose a wheel gun, the way all the clockwork comes together to bring up the next...

    i can't believe I did something this stupid !!

    OK, so say my gun does go "click", than what? Do you guys carry a lingth of rod to poke down the barrel? (is this the "range rod" that i hear of sometimes) or take it out of battery (swing the cylender out of a revolver) and look down it :scrutiny:? the latter seems like a good way to make the...
