There was no mystery gun in the first Terminator, it's even displayed on the poster! It was an AMT Longslide 1911 with a 6" barrel. Was not a Detonics. The second movie was a different story and featured a couple Detonics pistols. Arnold's gun was a Colt slide and Detonics frame, that looked...

My local shop says he expects 2 new Series 70 Gold Cups in his display case next week. I've already told him one of those is mine. We'll see if he's right. Colt did say the Gold Cups would ship in January, so the timing is right.

I would be all over a 44 special snubbie but S&W would charge $800 for it. Too much, which caused the untimely demise of their Night Guard series. I loved the concept of the Night Guards, the defensive revolvers I always wondered why no one would make. Then I saw the price! $800 is just too...

The articles I'm reading seem to indicate they realize an AWB will not be forthcoming. But in all those same articles they feel confident they can get a "high cap" mag ban. We've got to make extremely clear to them that we are against them banning ANYTHING, rifle, pistol, shotgun or magazine. We...

If the supreme court will uphold a 10 round max (and I think they will too), where does it end? When they find out that doesn't work (which it doesn't), what's to stop them from saying 8 rounds? Or 6 rounds? Is there an end? Can we go to single shots eventually? This is a serious question...

There's something forgotten about how factories ship their guns in cases. They coat them in oil and they put them in a plastic bag so the metal does not touch the foam of the case. I have had guns rust in foam cases, zippered pouches. Then I started putting them in plastic zip lock bags...

A couple posters recommended avoiding fabric with polyester content. Why is that?

JohnBT you forgot the rest of the quote! "...with only a couple exceptions." You are absolutely right, the Gold Match does have a stainless steel barrel. By contrast, the Kimber Stainless II does not. It has a bare steel barrel.

In my experience Kimber barrels do indeed rust faster than other barrels. The problem with Kimber barrels is that they are bare steel. Even on a stainless gun, the barrel is bare steel (with only a couple exceptions). I have experienced this firsthand. Of course ANYTHING will rust given the...

One thing the Browning BDA has is the top of the slide is enclosed unlike the open top slide of the Beretta. So if you prefer the full slide the Browning is the way to go.

Is the Browning BDA still made or has it been discontinued?

Holy smokes, you scared me for a minute there!!

I looked at the VT laws and the trespass law doesn't address a no guns sign. It addresses a No Trespassing sign. I've never heard of the no gun sign carrying any weight at all. While this law may perhaps be stretched to that conclusion, it appears to be a stretch. I have never heard about anyone...

I believe VT has the least amount of gun laws compared to the other states listed. No permit necessary for concealed carry. Nice! The bad news is it is expensive to live there and it's not letting up. VT has high sales tax, higher real estate tax and high real estate prices. Keep that in...

I've only seen S&W use the paper instead of a plastic bag. I'm sure other companies use it too, I haven't seen them however. Most of the pistols I buy they come in plastic bags inside the case. I have not had a problem in 10 years using the plastic bag method, but I do understand your...
