    Kiefer Sutherland On Guns ???

    It's also kinda funny by virtue that many (most?) of the guns in current LE and Fed use don't even have manual/external safeties... I have noticed in some shows and movies - including '24' - that a round is already chambered sometimes, and other times not until the firefight breaks out.

    S&W 627 PerfCtr .357x8

    I LOVE my PC 627-5... The new 'tactical' model is kinda cool, but I already have a G23 with goodies for HD/SD.

    Just a photo of my 232 with new Nill Grips...Oh, nice...

    Very nice, thanks for the pic! I have the same gun and grips and it's a keeper.

    sheriff's deputy dies in apparent gun-cleaning accident

    I heard the sad news on the radio this am as well, and also immediately thought "suicide coverup". The story is just too unbelieveable to be anything but that. They didn't try to speculate how one cleans a gun with a chambered round. :confused: Later they added more specifics i.e. the...

    CCI .22 Short CB Questions

    I have the same 'nuisance infestation' issue with rabbits... problem is that we are in the SoCal 'burbs and even shooting my airguns makes me nervous neighbor-wise (but is not illegal as far as I've been able to ascertain.) I have heard about the cayenne pepper thing for rabbits as well, and...

    Awesome, thanks!

    Free places to shoot in California?

    I'm in Rosamond fairly often (Willow Springs race track; my other hobby). Where exactly is the shooting area near there? :confused: I've heard of it, but as of yet have not tried to find it. I'm getting a little tired of the local small indoor range routine and also have (and hopefully...

    California banned guns this year

    I know at a minimum I plan to pick up some flavor of M1A variant this year; plus maybe a Remington 700 based rifle and anything else that may soon be deemed non-PC sometime soon by the politicians here. :(

    John Stossel "Ten lies and myths" 20/20 video link?

    Thanks for the link! I was honestly amazed that this was aired on 20/20 and/or one of the big networks. All in all, 20/20 and 60 Minutes seem to be blatantly anti-gun and liberal-biased shows IMO, and I have refused to watch them in recent years.

    Anybody packing up and leaving San Francisco?

    Ya know, it's actually a nice town...just in need of a population transfusion!

    Smith&Wesson Model 627 8-shot

    I love mine as well! It is super accurate, and easily manageable (even for a newbie like me) w/ full magnum loads.

    thoughts on joining the ARMY

    To echo the above, first of all, I have extremely high admiration for those of you who serve or have served our Nation in the armed forces. That said, if at all possible, I would suggest that you would be better off completing your education and then at that time re-visiting your decision, at...

    Birdshot for HD?

    I got some #6 Remington heavy-shot turkey loads just for the helluvit. Haven't tested them yet but I imagine they'd hurt plenty at normal HD/SD distances.

    i've discovered a tactical solution to PRK's anti-CCW:

    Culver City is in Los Antigungeles County, and is also adjacent to the Venice/Palms/Inglewood gangbangers and therefore the special LE units who combat them...so I think it's about as anti-gun as anywhere in SoCal these days.

    California: 10 Round Mags

    I only have 2 semiautos with 10rd capacity and have always been able to load all ten. Granted a few of the G23 mags were pretty darn tight, though. The thing that puzzles the crap out of me is the purpose of this ludicrous legislation??? I mean, I can have as many 10rd mags for a given...

    Going to the range w/ multiple guns

    I've never -not- taken more than one gun; but I usually progress thru them one by one starting with the most challenging/powerful. Typically 50-150 rds apiece. Hopping between platforms and calibers every few rounds does not seem fun or productive IMO.

    .357 v. 9mm

    Now why'd you guys have to go and tell me about that Marlin 1894C lever carbine 3 days before my birthday? ;) I was really getting to like my S&W PC627-5 and this could be a good buddy for it.

    .22 ammo storage/longevity

    OK -- just to be a dumb newbie, by "proper storage" I assume we are talking about sealed against excessive moisture/humidity (what is the optimal RH%?) and located where extreme temps (again what are optimal ° ranges?) won't be experienced? I see this as a fairly serious topic, as IMHO we...

    Wilson Combat grip screws

    Definitely not trying to be negative/derogatory by any means, but all fasteners have proper torque specs (whether the supplier actually tells you the specs is another story!) and WILL break if used in inappropriate applications and/or over-torqued. It's possible that either (a) grip screws of...
