    Held my first "Ladies Night" training session tonight.

    Sounds like a good time was had by all. Hands on demonstrations are always better than lectures on safety and proper operation and employment of weapons. Good on you for taking the time to teach these eager to learn women about weapons and defense. Look forward to reading the next class follow-up.

    how many guns do you take to the range

    Depends on what the purpose of the trip is for me. Last time I went with 2 buddies and we brought probably 18 guns between the 3 of us and spent at least 4 hours shooting. All rifles, no pistols.

    .223 -vs 5.56 Firing Pin

    5.56 NATO is a Military round with a "Military Primer" meaning that it's harder. Firing pin is probably made of a harder or heavier metal. AFAIK though there shouldn't be a difference in firing pins is you are running a bolt carrier for a gun in .223 Rem or 5.56 NATO.

    Remington SPR 453 value help

    I bought one of these a while ago and can say I'm very pleased. Got mine NIB with the wrench, instructions, lock :rolleyes:, etc... Paid $325 for mine at CA prices which is no surprise. Nice gun to shoot a full round of trap and not be feeling it the rest of the day. Light weight and swings...

    how do I handle this? (post sale issue)

    Shotgun sold as is if you ask me, no warranty expressed or implied. That being said, the right thing to do is probably direct the buyer to the most cost effective way to repair the weapon including sourcing a replacement part and guidance on how to make said repair.

    Testing the viability of an Idea.

    When you posted the idea I immediately though of this scene from the Jim Carrey movie "The Mask." Fast forward for 0:42 the best part. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zHID-Pa20E

    Testing the viability of an Idea.

    A target that heckles you would be fun. But I get enough of that when my GF is manning the spotting scope and says something funny before I pull the trigger and try to save some face.

    Denied? Why was I denied??

    A UPIN is a Unique Personal Identification Number. Think of it as a SSN tied to your criminal history. A lot of people use it because of frequent delays or denials and helps the FFL and FBI determine that you are you, and not some scumbag that shares your name. This was covered a ways back...

    Denied? Why was I denied??

    Stupid question for the OP. I was once denied for a bolt rifle purchase through NICS also, all because my Drivers License had expired during my 10-day waiting period (CA thing, don't ask :fire:) And that was enough to grant a denial, not a delay. Fast forward to getting a renewed license and it...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Just plunked the cash down for a new LWRC R.E.P.R. in .308 with an 18" bbl. Haven't taken it home yet but man that thing is sweet!

    Opinion Piece From Today

    Not a bad article... Kinda rehashing what most of us already knew but still worth sharing with people on the fence about guns.

    Some people just don't get it. Long Post

    First off congrats on getting into the world of shooting. You meet these sort of people all the time at the range, gun shop, internet forums, and anywhere else the discussion turns to guns. Just turn the other cheek and go on your merry way when you meet someone that feels the need to...

    wife's perspective on what to take if we need to leave home

    Solid advice. I had this talk a few weeks ago with my girlfriend oddly enough. I work nights and she was home alone and heard some noises that made her a little fearful. What concerned me was that she asked me which guns are loaded and where they are in the house. I keep a Mossberg 500 in a...

    Safety First!

    According to the Justice System of my Brain, if someone is/was doing that then they should be charged with attemped murder. Why jeopardize someone's safety just for a chance to point your finger and say "See!" May as well find the car that guy drove to the gun show and wedge his gas pedal...

    I heard a good one today...

    The one about the .22 bouncing around your insides makes me laugh every time. It's actually fun to explain to people that, while it can be deadly, the bullet is not going to turn your ribcage into a pinball machine.
