    If your state passed new terrible gun laws, would you move or stay and fight?

    As a 30 year resident of NY I have watched the gradual decrease of personal freedom with each passing year. This past November the NY Senate went "D" and I knew that the thumb was out of the dam, and the dam burst. For 30 years I have watched people vote with their feet and move from states...

    What's wrong with the SR1911?

    Please ingore my ignorance, but what gun is that in the pic. Sure is pretty. However I might suggest that it might be more than $700. I know, a stupid thing to say not knowing what it is. It just looks expensive. Thinking Colt with that cut back butt. BD

    Bodyguard VS. LCP

    Purchased by BG 380 with intergrated laser in Jan of 2011 just when the price dropped to $399. At the time it was cheaper than the ruger with a laser. Performance has been execllent with factory ammo but have not gotten my reloads to do as well. Have to try some Federal primers as I hear they...

    What's wrong with the SR1911?

    Yep, it is what it is. A fine shooting, good looking, afordable, gun made in the USA. Have about 500 rounds of lead, FMJ, and HP through it without a single FTF or FTE. I really don't know what a 700 dollar gun is supposed to do to impress you. I works for me. BD

    Electronic locks and EMP

    I think you see Republicans under every bed. Get a better small handgun safe that is that is dial combination. Then purchase a larger safe for longuns that has either a dial combination or an electronic combination (with key override). Place the override key in the more secure small safe...

    Why are NYS Pistol Permits back logged?

    In most cases the delays are the fault of the local PD, getting interviews done, check of local records, etc. The national and state background searches are done at the city or county level. Mental health records search is done at state level. This is the only imput from the state. The...

    Bullet went between me and neighbor!

    I recently found a spent 223 round in a spare upstairs bathroom. The round had gone through the wall, through the tile on the inside wall and lay spent in the bath tub. We live in the country with one mile by one mile blocks. The shooter was more than 3/4 of a mile from my house. While...

    Dry Firing - Yes, No, Maybe So? - The Definitive Answer...

    From the Ruger web site - Can I dry fire my Mark III pistol? Yes. The Mark III has a firing pin stop that prevents the firing pin from contacting the rear of the barrel and damaging the edge of the chamber. If you are going to dry fire the pistol extensively, the stop pin and firing pin will...
