    AmmoMan, anyone ordered from them, recently?

    Lucky Gunner is based in Knoxville, and I guess (?) that it shipped from there and that LG means LuckyGunner.

    Most complicated firearm you've disassemled

    For me, it's a tie. First is a Luger P08. No matter how many times I disassemble that, I have to work with it for what seems like forever to finally get all of the locks to "click" back together. Second is a Hi-Standard Double Nine revolver. This thing, while deceivingly simple, has the most...

    Traveling I75 FL to TN; where to stop for ammo?

    As far as stores, Gander Mountain and Academy are generally the go-to places around Knoxville...Unfortunately, neither are very well stocked at the moment, just a lot of shot shells. Frontier Firearms is also pretty nice, but I haven't been there in a while. If you know some shooters in the...

    What's the easiest firearm you've ever disassembled?

    My easiest is my 91/30 Mosin or a single shot bolt-action Savage model 3. Hardest- Luger P08 or Hi-Standard Double-Nine Revolver

    Anything else like collecting firearms?

    However, camera lenses hold their value just as well, if not better, than guns.

    Your most intricate weapon

    The Luger was tough to get the hang of, but my most difficult assembly goes to my old hi-standard double nine. That thing has the most difficult spring/pin assemblies, and when disassembled without a manual and with a bent mainspring, it's even more difficult.

    Quietest gun for self defense

    True, silencers are completely legal in Tennessee. Additionally, they are relatively easy to obtain and most CLEOs are receptive to them. http://www.guntrustlawyer.com/2008/07/class-iii-nfa-firearms-in-tenn.html

    ATF, "non-sporting," and publishing emails to them

    I too noticed that. Many of these people wanted to settle for compromise, not a full 2A right. These sorts of people will make the Hughes Amendment and the NFA infinitely more difficult to repeal in the long run.

    Does Winchester Lap New M70 Barrels?

    I humbly disagree. Today's Savages are solid and accurate, and, while the new FN Winchester M70s are a little new to judge well, they seem to be fantastically accurate and very well-made.

    If you lived/live in a 'free state' and you could pick One Fully-Automatic firearm...

    Alaska was not a state back then, and, even if you did refer to that campaign as a "US" invasion, I think he referred to the mainland.

    South Africa Export Laws

    I live in Knoxville, so I'm not anywhere near ports; however, I think I am flying into Atlanta, whence I could drive to somewhere in the Southeast.

    South Africa Export Laws

    Considering that I'll be in Europe for over three weeks, it seems as if the only logical way would be to sign on a family member to pick it up upon arrival (they can pick it up if they are already in the country, correct?) because it sure would be a pain to go through hoops to get it out of some...

    South Africa Export Laws

    Ok, thanks; however, is there any way to SHIP the rifle back to the states via Fedex or UPS freight or something, as I am going straight from Africa to Rome on an unrelated trip, and I wouldn't like to deal with my gun while cruising the Mediterranean and Germany. Edit: Are you saying that I...

    South Africa Export Laws

    This June I am travelling to South Africa for a hunting trip, and I am unable to find certain regulations regarding exportation of firearms. I have no problem bringing my rifle (300 Win Mag) into the country; however, immediately following this trip, I am going to Rome. I need to get my gun...

    Why does everyone say ".45 ACP"?

    Not to be a bad guy, but the two Latin words in that phrase mean "prepare for war." Para comes from paro, parare, paravi, paratum, (prepare), and it is used in the imperative in that form. The designation "parabellum" came from the Latin adage "Si vis pacem, para bellum" (the sig of more than...

    Winchester Mod-70 Barreled Actions

    I don't actually need legitimately Pre-1964 actions, just that style of action. Thanks NCsmitty, but is there any retailer (i.e. Brownell's) that sells new actions?

    Winchester Mod-70 Barreled Actions

    I'm in the market for a pre-64 model 70, but I want to either buy or make a higher quality walnut stock for it. I could buy a cheaper model and replace the stock, but I feel as if that would be a waste. Does anyone know where I could find an action, barreled or not,-preferably in 300 Win Mag...

    Long Island Man Arrested for defending home...

    I highly doubt it was automatic; I'm pretty sure the news got this one wrong.
