    Gotta wait another year to jump through Texas' hoops?! Sigh.

    So this year we moved out of the overpriced tropical paradise known as South Florida and relocated to Austin, Texas. We were busy with new jobs\projects\settling in to new home, so I wasn't in a big rush to become active with organizing firearms courses. I had heard that I had to take a...

    Can anyone ID this rifle for me?

    This is a single-shot, breech-loading .22 with a heavy octagonal barrel. The only markings I could find are a small Y with a star above it, the letters E L G with a star inside an oval. Any info would be greatly appreciated, including what it's worth. Thanks!

    What would you say if asked?

    Here's the scenario: You live in an apartment complex and you're on your way to the range. You might pass by some of your neighbors or their kids while walking to your car with your rifle or shotgun in its case, which is obviously a gun case. One of the kids is a precocious 7-8 year old...

    Benelli rear sight question

    A few years ago I bought a Benelli M1S90 Field model. It came with a very long ribbed barrel with a front bead sight. I use it primarily for IPSC-style competition, and I've been very happy with it. A while ago I found a good deal on a "tactical" barrel, which has a very high front sight on...

    Full-length guide rod for 1911? Yea or nay?

    I got a full-length guide with my Colt Gold Cup when I bought it. Is it worth the extra hassle incurred during field stripping? The guy at the gunshop said it made the pistol lock up faster and tighter. True or BS? I'ts so much easier to assemble and disassemble the GC without the guide rod...

    Are we under martial law?

    I'd like to hear definitive answers on this, preferably backed up by references any of us can check. It's a simple question, folks. I don't know the answer for sure, but I have an opinion. I'd like to hear from the legal scholars out there. Or is this question the "third rail"? Red pill...

    Suggestions for a ladie's rifle or carbine?

    Here are my requirements: it has to be lightweight, not overly long, light recoil, and as ergonomically comfy in every possible respect for a small-framed shooter. I prefer at least 9mm caliber. Ideally it would be fun and cheap to shoot. I'm currently considering the Kel-Tec Sub-2000, but...

    Does playing video games encourage good or bad tactical habits?

    This is just for fun, guys. I love playing Battlefield 1942 online, and I also enjoy Unreal Tournament and UT2003. I have wondered from time to time if the time I spend playing these first-person shooter games has benefitted me, or am I likely to develop bad habits? I'd love to hear what...

    Locked breech vs blowback / HK94 vs Uzi Carbine

    I have wondered for some time how much muzzle velocity is lost in a blowback-operated pistol caliber carbine, such as the Uzi carbine, versus a locked-breech design such as the HK94? Is there anyone here who has (or would) chronographed two such firearms using the the same ammo? Inquiring minds...

    BATF perjury (forgive me if this is old news)

    Please forgive me if this is old news to y'all, but it's new to ME, and I imagine there might be other new members here that not have heard of this. Either, I think it bears repeating, lest anyone forget. The BATF routinely perjures themselves in court (surprise!)...
