    San Francisco - Areas to Avoid?

    I used to live on Nob Hill, I'll echo the Mission District, some areas of market street look a little sketchy. Overall its fine, with any city being out too late isn't the best idea. City shuts down by about 1 anyway, Mission District is fine to go to, but maybe take a cab to and fro...

    Beretta PX4 - Advice needed

    Hmm, I just did a quick google search and I think I found their website. All px4's are listed for 620+ aside from a few on sale for 585 which is all way higher than normal. How did you get your 300 dollar quote? I'm very much interested and yet at the same time if their website is correct...

    Ammo, It's Back!, Or Is It?

    I was at my local range and they had a ton of ammo, even 38 special for a change, 10+ boxes! I wonder how much the ammo craze has died down or if its more just an availability thing.

    Beretta PX4 - Advice needed

    I had heard of them selling in the 400 range in years past because there wasn't quite the craze like there is now. That being said I'm not sure if I should try to wait for a gun show or just buy from bud's online or somewhere. Got me wonderin now with this 300 dollar super deal!

    Beretta PX4 - Advice needed

    300!? How? I've shot about 150 rounds through one and will be buying one in no more than a month. I like the trigger a lot, ergo is very comfortable, the weight is just right for me, and it has smooth recoil. My other option would be a Sig P226, but for me being on more of a budget I figure...

    Police shoot homeowner six times

    I feel like due to the "rules" or guidelines of the forum, its being pigeonholed into a get on your knees regardless type situation. I think most people agree that nothing should of been done differently, quite frankly the cop rolled in and started shooting, period. I think given the same...

    Fatal Chicago Beating - What could a bystander have done?

    Well in light of the fact it is Chicago so guns are out of the question, even yelling to break it up from an adult would have some effect. This isn't random adults on the mean streets of Chicago, its 16 and 17 year olds in high school. Yelling and saying the cops are coming(After having...

    Fatal Chicago Beating - What could a bystander have done?

    In this particular case you're dealing with a lot of high school students who have probably never been are firearms. Given it seems to be a city setting as well. Honestly, my best guess, would be that warning shots do a world of help. To the mention that you might go to jail for doing...

    Arizona--Who's Posting No Guns?

    haha if that card is serious then its pretty awesome. I think its ultimately a dumb thing to put up a sign. Not for the business side of things, but the reality side of things. Good guy or bad guy, is a sign going to literally STOP anyone? Nope, unless there's a metal detector, then you're...

    She didn't want me to carry...

    That's pretty awesome the story ended on a high note. I was SO ready for the seemingly inevitable "and then it go bad..." part, but sure enough it didn't happen. I will readily say there are kooks out there that would be ready to say I'll show 'em who's boss if they give me a funny look. By...

    Broke up a fight tonight

    I think the OP handled it very well. I think its a sad situation where apathy and ignorance can lead to devastating consequences. Quite frankly, I think indifference is just as bad as the people doing the evil. At the same time, after Water Garden clarified himself, I totally understand...

    .22LR for $3.99 for 500 rnds

    With any situation there can be good and bad. Perhaps whoever put the products out--even a manager maybe--now realizes to double check things before putting them out. So it was a learning experience, in this case paying for the mistake cost actual money. I remember when I worked in retail...

    Bear attacks Japan tourists, shot dead in shop

    But guns can hurt things..oh you mean that's the point? Still though even in America its not like everyone would be whipping out a 1911 on the spot and tearing the bear a new one.

    Threatned by my neighbor

    I'm baffled, amazed, and in awe. I thought young people were the naive ones and yet I'm getting the completely opposition kind of feeling. Anyone who came onto my property, armed and threatening me would never EVER get a second chance to even be associated with much less friends with...

    Bug-out bag

    I may be echoing what was already said, but I'll go ahead and say there's really no right or wrong. In any one particular situation you could find a system applicable, but it all boils down to in this modern day, what do you feel you'll most likely encounter? Take the top 1 or 2 and plan...

    Pondering a PX-4 storm in .40. What has been your experience with this weapon?

    I've used a PX-4 in 9 twice by renting it at a local range. I absolutely love it and have shot a fair number of other guns. I'm hooked on it, however, I'd prefer to buy it in 40. I have(I think so anyway) fairly small hands and have no issues, despite what some people saying only medium on up...
