    Buying a gun for an old friend (I live in Florida and he lives in Ohio)

    Hey all, Thanks for the responses. I find it kind of funny that buying a firearm for a friend who is a federal judge could be considered a "straw purchase." So this shouldnt be a problem then? As a followup, how would I do this? Tell the people from cheaperthandirt that I am buying the...

    Coming out as a gun owner

    In regards to the original question, I would be very wary "coming out" as a gun owner in a hospital environment. As a physician, when I simply mentioned that I hunt and target shoot for fun, I was barraged by co workers and ancillary staff. Words traveled quickly "better not upset doc or...

    Civil Suits in Florida

    Hello, I will be moving to Florida. In Michigan, if you are found "not guilty" in a criminal trial in a self defense case, you are immune from a civil suit. Is this the same in Florida? Are there other states in which you are immune from a Civil Suit? Thanks MannytheGreek

    If you live in a rough city, this is what you train for

    Im not sure if I agree with the comments about "wrong side of the city" Those guys look like hipsters. You know, the upper middle class white people that thinking going to a rough part of a city is cool and nothing will happen to them. Even so, what I saw was an unprovoked attack. It was...

    If you live in a rough city, this is what you train for

    To the commenter above, I dont think the guys beaten up in the video said anything to the attackers. It just doesnt make sense. They dont look like they'd start something as they didnt even put up a fight when they were attacked. It's strange. You *knew* that something is gonna happen to...

    Florida Home Defense Deterrents in response to recent burglaries

    Japle, Thank you so much for your advice. Obviously a home security system is a priority but many times people leave their sliding glass doors open as it is so warm most times of the year (during the day), hence the request for a security solution that is part of the lanai. Any more...

    Recoil of Benelli M4 vs 870 with Knoxx Stock

    So I've been thinking about a Benelli M4, I really like my 870 with a Knoxx Stock- the recoil impulse is significantly dampened. I was thinking about purchasing a Benelli M4 for a semiauto and was wondering what the recoil characteristics were like compared to my 870. If you get the...

    Ordering Handguns from CDNN in Southeastern Michigan

    Hey All, So I have put aside a few dollars for some new handgun purchases. It has been a while since I last made a firearms purcahse. From what I understand, CDNN sells handguns at "dealer prices" to those who have an FFL. I hear that HK45's go for about 850-900 and p30s for lower than...
