    Deactivated firearm laws?

    Thanks that's exactly what I was looking for! As I am in Virginia I was also able to find this pertaining to "sawed off" rifles.

    Deactivated firearm laws?

    I'm looking to deactivate a rifle for use as a theatrical prop. The barrel will be cut down and I don't want to deal with all the NFA SBR rules that would normally apply. I know it needs to be made permanently inoperable. I've searched around, but the only thing I can really find are rules on...

    Va governor race info needed

    Most importantly Deeds will never support a state assertion of its 10th amendment powers whereas McDonnell will. If you want to keep the ATF out of intra-state transactions you need a leader who will stand up to the feds.

    Rant about new gun law. Is this real?

    http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-308.2C2 About halfway down the page: Since the AR has a threaded muzzle, under this law one can assume that it has been designed so that it can "accommodate a silencer." (Not legal advice) Virginia also has a law against...

    Rant about new gun law. Is this real?

    Actually it is a Virginia law - you must prove citizenship/permanent residency to purchase an assault rifle. This law is not new. http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-308.2C2 See this old discussion thread for more info...

    Del-Ton order

    Forgive a newbie question, but what is the benefit of a midlength rifle versus the M4/carbine length? Does that extra couple inches before the gas block make a difference in how it shoots?

    Richmond VA Police Chief: Gun Friendly?

    I can't speak for his gun stance - all I know is that crime has dropped - dramatically. Richmond used to be the murder capital of the south. It's not anymore. I am sad to see him go and worry about the future of the city. As far as Wilder, I did vote for him. I can't stand his stance on...

    TN or VA: Which side of Bristol to settle?

    As a Virginia resident I am obviously biased towards my side of the border. But you will only be renting. So in the end it really won't matter for now. They both have reciprocity - so where ever you live you can carry in both states. Since you won't be buying a house yet you may want to...

    U.S. Pastor Gets 3+ Years for 20rds in Russia

    When he was first arrested a few months ago it was reported that if he had simply declared that he had the ammo and that it was a gift - he would have been completely within the law. He just didn't know he had to declare it. Sucks to spend 3 years in a Russian prison for such a little...

    Here is the most recent article - read the comments especially. http://www.collegiatetimes.com/stories/2008/04/17/students_hold_lie-in_to_protest_gun_show_loophole Even the extremely anti-gun editorial board said they shouldn't protest...

    Didn't see the ProtestEasyGuns crowd at VT today

    They did their LIE-in. The administration let them do it since they moved it back two hours after the memorial service. They did it at the far side of the drillfield near the duckpond. http://www.collegiatetimes.com/stories/2008/04/17/students_hold_lie-in_to_protest_gun_show_loophole

    I have really been thinking we need to use the anti's medicine against them. The next time they do one of their LIE-ins. We need to show up with 32 people as well. Instead of protesting their LIE-in, we hold one right next to them. Except for ours, we have signs like "Here lie disarmed...

    I've been informed when I go to get my permit, the guy doing the printing asks "why?"

    Answer his question with another question: "What is the average police response time in this jurisdiction for a 911 call?"

    20yr old planning attack w/ ammo "meant to take down aircraft/military machines"

    Just goes to show you to watch what you say on a public forum. He might actually be nuts. But he might also just be a normal guy who got a little carried away with his internet commando-ness. Some people think they post in anonymity - this proves they do not. So don't post anything in a...

    OK Legal Eagle types... let's discuss "prior knowledge"

    Why not just have electronic copies of everything on your computer. A video of the Tueller Drill or word documents of your CCW class notes. The computer file can tell you when it was created, modified, and last accessed.
