    Looking for a Holster

    Good morning guys I need to find a better way of carrying my Freedom Arms .454. It has a 10" barrel and scoped with a Leupold 4X. I've researched quite a few different options and I'm not sure whether to go with a gunbelt carry or some style of shoulder holster. (I've seen what Freedom Arms...

    Posted Bows for Sale in the Trading Post

    I know more than a few of us here are getting ready for hunting season. I was gearing up toward a fun and productive bow season but my shoulder tells me it's not gonna happen. I posted an Alpine Ravage and a recurve for sale in the Trading Post (Buy, Sell and Trade: Accessories) if...

    Real World Defensive Shooting Cases

    Like most folks who carry, I frequent most of the forums and read up on the latest tactics and "best plans" for various scenarios. I've read many opinions on carry ammo, pros and cons on carry weapons, best carry holsters, OWB vs IWB, dressing appropriately, etc. We choose our weapons wisely...

    Mossberg Home Defense

    Friday afternoon I decided to stroll through one of my regular gun stores to see if anything new was out there. At my first stop he walked to the back and came back with a Mossberg box and pulled out a "Tactical" 500, of the Persuader flavor. I had not seen this particular setup before. I...

    Carry (or possess) at work?

    So how do you go about asking your company whether you are allowed to concealed carry or even possess a handgun at work (in a desk drawer)? There is no written procedure against it, but the question itself may result in a new and strict policy.

    German Paper blames Heston for VT shootings

    While reading through Drudge this morning, I came across this jewel. How about the caption under the photo that reads "In America, buying a machine gun is often easier than getting a driver's license"? http://www.spiegel.de/international/0,1518,477686,00.html

    Good news, guys! (Stolen gun returned!)

    I posted this back on April 27, 2005: I had a break-in just after the holidays, roughly four months ago. All jewelry, small electronics (kid's Christmas gifts), and cash was taken. Also stolen were three handguns and a Bushmaster AR15. Four weeks after the loss, I was contacted by our...

    Mossberg 835 Barrel

    I just posted in the "Trading Post" section looking to buy a used slug barrel for my Mossberg 835. The odds of finding a used one might be a trick so I wanted to pass a question to the shotgun gurus: Are all 835 factory barrels overbored? And if not, would a cut down barrel give decent...

    Worth the time? NEF 204 Ruger

    Good morning, guys. I ran across a nice NEF with bull barrel and mounted weaver rail chambered in 204. The rifle is new and priced $229. Not fancy by any means but felt very solid and locked up tight. I was curious if the guys here have experience with the NEF rifle and comments on the 204...

    A New Generation?

    My wife rented a movie last week, I don't recall what it was...probably a chick flick. While I was working on my laptop she started the movie and the "upcoming movie" trailers began. The movie appeared to be by Disney/Pixar with the "Toy Story-like" quality, an animated movie. It showed a...

    Faxing FFL Paperwork???

    Guys, maybe I'm way behind on this one but it's news to me. I'm currently buying a gun out of state and I contacted my FFL for the normal "please mail your paperwork". He told me they had just attended a seminar/convention and were told that it is now ok to fax paperwork between FFLs. I'm...

    I want my gun back. How?

    I had a break-in just after the holidays, roughly four months ago. All jewelry, small electronics (kid's Christmas gifts), and cash was taken. Also stolen were three handguns and a Bushmaster AR15. Four weeks after the loss, I was contacted by our local Police Department. They had recovered...

    Beretta Snap Caps

    I popped into my local gun store to pick up a few snap caps for my USP 45 Tactical. The trigger is already great but I plan to do a bit of dry firing to get used to the pull and remedy any flinch. One guy said they were out but another young man asked what caliber I was looking for. When I...

    Where do you store ammo? How safe is it?

    Hey guys. I chimed in last week on a thread discussing some hazards, recognized and some not so visible, for firefighters. One thing we ran into during structure fires was ammunition stored in various places, garages, tool rooms, gun cabinets, closets, etc. We're down here in the south and...

    Where to dispose of questionable ammo?

    Like most folks here I have rifles, shotguns and handguns. I'll pick up ammo here and there, some recreational, some for hunting. Every now and then I'll come across some ammo that is questionable. !2 gauge shells that are a bit corroded or swollen after a bit of moisture in the blind...

    My stolen rifle recovered!

    Two days after Christmas my home was broken into sometime during the day (no one home). Seemed a sort of bold action considering the neighbors around and holiday traffic. But I live in the country and evidently someone had been watching the house. I started to post the theft here back then...

    HK USP Tactical Experience?

    My tactical should be arriving this week, and although I did a good bit of research (including here) I am interested in in your experiences, good or bad. I did get an opportunity to handle and shoot a tac and was impressed. But one session on the range does equate to stripping, cleaning, ammo...

    Does your wife (or daughter) carry?

    I bought my wife a .380 some time back and we occassionally (twice a year) shoot together so she can stay familiar with basic operation. My wife is early 30s, pretty, dresses well, and is a true lady. In my opinion the perfect victim. I need to sit her down, almost classroom setting, and...

    Bushmaster safety lever

    So I am towards the end of my second shooting session with the Bushy. Everything is going nicely until I go to put the rifle on "SAFE" to check impact on the target. The lever won't move, just stuck in the 12 o'clock position. I should have one round left in the mag so I reshoulder...
