Our CCW statute is a joke. However, we were very lucky to get any CCW law at all a couple of years ago. My home state's political structure is stodgy, at best. At least we only have 1 legislative body to contend with. We have a ray of sunshine in LB 430 that is on the cusp of winning...

I tried to install a +2 extension mag base on one of my Glock 27 mags. I can't figure out for the life of me how to get the base/floorplate off! I push in the detent in the bottom, but the two little protrusions on the sides won't let the mag base slide off the bottom of the mag tube. I...

My powder for my .40 S&W IPSC loads is WSF (Winchester Super Field). I recently bought my first 8 lb keg from a local shop, been buying in the 1 lb jugs in the past. This keg was probably around for awhile at the shop, it has an "older" style label with a yellow background vs. the newer...

Wife and I went out spend a little range time this afternoon. There's a small "Ad hoc" range about 10 miles from town on some farmland. I have permission from the owner to shoot there, but pretty much everybody uses it as if it's their own. The owner doesn't like everybody and their...

Last night at an estate auction I purchased a Luger for $355. Seemed like a good deal. I was planning to go as high as $400, which my local friend/ffl also thought was a good deal. It's worn here and there, but not too bad looking. The mag has a wooden "baseplate". SN is 50XX. I got it...

I recently sent another round of emails about illegal immigration to my elected reps in DC, plus my state senator. Previously, I received a letter in response from Sen Ben Nelson (D-NE). He's our former Governor. His position, despite his party affiliation, comes close to my position...

Since SomeKid's thread got hijacked into verbotenland, let's discuss Nebraska's own Ernie Chambers and his virulent opposition to CCW in our Unicameral. Do a search and read up on this character. He's been in our Unicameral (Nebraska is the only state with only 1 legislative body) for 30+...

Fellow High Roaders, please send your prayers, good vibes, best wishes..whatever floats your boat towards the "Great" State of Nebraska today. Today our Unicameral (We only have one house in our legislature) is debating LB 454, the concealed handgun permit law. Our governer has said that he...

After shooting English Kanigit's K-31 a couple of months ago, I just had to have one! Paid AIM Surplus for walnut and hand picked. Got one with VG-EX metal, great bore, and a really dinged-up stock. Name was under the buttplate. Ser # indicates it was made in '44. I've already got new...

Tried doing the search thing, but my key words were too common, so here goes... I've got a Winchester Model 94 in 45 Colt. Looking at the hotter loads section in my Speer Manual it cautions to use them only in Ruger Vaqueros, Redhawks (IIRC) or TC Contenders. (But not in a S&W mod 25???)...

I was having a converstion with my local friendly FFL at his shop the other day when he made a point that made me stop and think...... "Cars & firearms supposedly kill approximately the same number of folks. How many folks do you actually know who've been killed/injured in an automobile...

Must pay penance! I'm at about the 80% point on studying and planning my next gun purchase....the remaining 20% entailing acumulating enough "positive huss" points with SWMBO to avoid a severe fanging when the box "follows me home". It's gonna be an AR, flat top, 20" HB, 1 in 9...
