Huh? What do I do with the copper penny? :confused:

Painting the pitted area sounds like a good idea. Should I use a steel brush on the pits and paint over it? I don't know. Today has been a bad day for me. Some mechanic tries to convince me to pay $700 to change my brakes, tires, etc. when all I wanted was them to change my front brakes...

So... I recently purchased a garand from AIM advertised as excellent wood and metal condition. I got the gun yesterday, and it looked great. I did noticed that some minor parts looked reparked, but that's ok. The stock looks brand new so I think it must have been replaced. Today, I noticed...

Ooops, sorry. I'm sending the rifle to a FFL 01 holder in SC. Would a C&R be acceptable rather than my driver's license?

Hmmm, I happened to have sold a K-31 to a resident in South Carolina. Interestingly, I received a letter with the funds and copy of FFL that states that I must send a copy of my FFL or a copy of my driver's license. The letter also states that it is South Carolina law. I don't know much about...

When he says hunting, it's more like he's going to wait outside on his Aunt's porch and shoot at things that move. :eek: Please don't tell me the legality of this, I'm not the one doing it. Mostly no, but a saiga is perfectly legal. I posted this question on THR since I couldn't really...

So my coworker is looking for a fun rifle to plink and hunt with in the boonies. His budget is $500. It seems he wants a semi-automatic, center-fire rifle. He's already got a poodleshooter. I think he's leaning towards getting a tactical-like rifle such as an AR. He prefers American arms...

Hmmm, I'm seeing a lot of fans of the almighty smith and wesson. Is no one else up to the task? :D

Ah, I just got back from work a couple of hours ago. No pictures tonight fellas. :o I need to go to work early tomorrow (or rather today) for a teleconference with some clients in New York... By the way, can ya guys on the East coast start your days 3 hours later? :banghead: I don't...

Mmmm, those are all very nice. Those Smiths look very very nice. :cool: This forum needs an emoticon for DROOL. I'd like to get a snubbie, but as StrikeEagle says, they're the least fun to shoot at the range. And since I happen to live in L.A., the chances of getting ccw is nil. :cuss: I...
