    Carrying a firearm in a courthouse

    In MN you can carry in the state buildings and offices (But not the state supreme court buildings) and county courthouses as long as you notify the Director of Public Safety (for state) and the local Sheriff (for the county) in writing. The neat thing is you don't have to be specific as to...

    What is a "Cop Killer" Handgun?!?!

    You know, that was always one of my favorites. I really like the sound of it, and I even use it myself.

    Should off duty cops be subject to the same gun laws as the rest of us?

    I agree that general carry rights have been infringed and should be restored to the people. Concerning the topic of the thread though, I believe in MN all LEOs are never considered to be off-duty. They have a duty to act in certain situations. Also, you have to consider the dangers of the...

    WW2 Question

    Bit of a thread jack, but has anyone heard of modern soldiers using anything like those "hunting ears" or whatever they are called. The little hearing aids that amplify noise and work as ear plugs when they detect dynamic noises like gun shots. Just wondering.

    Long distance shooting Range in/near Twin Cities, Minnesota?

    Does anyone in the Twin Cities area know of a public range where I can work out my rifles? Or perhaps a private range in the north or west or even soutwest metro that is accepting membership applications? Some place with at least a 100 yard range. That isn't asking too much, is it? I have...

    What Gear Do You Always Carry in Your Pockets?

    Ok. I usually never wear pants with fewer than six pockets. Left Thigh is mobile phone and extra space. Left front pocket is keys and my 5.11 freebie knife. Right front is usually my Kahr PM40 in a pocket holster unless I am carrying something on my hip. Right thigh is my Fenix P3D light...

    cant find decent priced daily carry w/ belt cutter and glass break

    I have it... I am an EMT and a Park Ranger and I carry a Gerber Hinderer Rescue Knife. It has all you want, and it isn't too spendy. ($60-80 depending on where you buy) http://www.gerbergear.com/product.php?model=1534

    Best gun never made

    I would like a gun similar the the subcompact Kahr's , like a PM40, but with a longer grip (front to back) to accomodate a 10mm. That would be nice: A single stack, subcompact or similar size, 10mm

    Most Beautiful Gun

    For me, I have to say the Colt Trooper MKIII that my mom bought for my dad after he got his first police job. It started a legacy of law enforcement and gun ownership in my family and still bears the holster wear of many years of use. There are at least three good stories I know associated...

    Another Gun Store Moron

    I have found one such store near my home and have since bought every firearm I own at that establishment. As a matter of fact I went there On Friday and bought a new handgun and ordered a rifle. For those of you in the Twin Cities, MN area I can't stress this enough: Support The Frontiersman...

    THR range day in Minnesota?

    I'd be interested in a shoot at Bills North. Rather than bashing anyone, I'll just say that The Frontiersman has got to be the best gun shop in the twin cities. No Tactical Toms running around talking about loading M2 ammo into their Desert Eagle to get better stopping power (No kidding, I...

    Coon Rapids man kills home invader

    I'm sure I'll be labled the "prejudiced" guy, but have any of you seen the photo of this kid? He's got the "gangsta" hat on sideways with the overly baggy hooded sweatshirt and just looks like a real wannabe thug. I wouldn't base my opinion of this kid solely on his appearance, but when you...

    Armed on a Backpacking Trip

    I did this in September. Carried a Colt Trooper mkIII with 180gr Buffalo Bore LFN-GCs. I chose this for the possibility of bear or catamount encounters. Due to wildfires in the BWCA, the wildlife was getting more ambitious about where and what they were willing to eat. We were getting a lot...

    Kaczynski's Gun

    That is... absolutely insane. I have no other words for it. It looks like something out of a nightmare. It's just bizarre. I can't imagine what the Kaczynski designed car would look like.

    Avenue of No Escape: Drive Thru Lanes.

    Yeah, just leave enough room to manuever between you and the car in front of you. Other than that, consider the DTs that are being designed now that don't block you in. Most of the fast food joints around here now have DT lanes that are at least two wide, if not just part of the parking lot...

    NYPD: Three shots then look!

    IIRC, mozambique is "zipping them up" whilst a triple tap is more of an aimed two to the body and one to the head. A lot of police agencies that I am familar with teach this. I also think this is where the "three then look" comes from. You assess the target, fire three (2+1) and then look...

    Coon Rapids man kills home invader

    When I heard this on am1500 earlier today, I was thinking, "Great, good for him!" Then I started to hear the reporters take on it as they interviewed the neighbors. It seems that the victim (the old man) is now being painted as the crazy loner type. I hate to see where this is going.
