    Mailing your guns to yourself?

    I couldn't find the answer to this by searching, but I was wondering if it was possible to FexEx or UPS your guns to yourself. I made a last minute flight to go pick up a truck I purchased back in my hometown. The flight is with United and there is one stop in....drum roll...Chicago. I...

    Shipping Ammo UPS?

    Hey guys. I was wondering if UPS charged an additional Hazmat fee on top of regular shipping charges. I searched on the internet and couldn't find anything about it other than they require a label. I just wanted to make sure before I tell someone that the shipping is "x" when it is actually "x +...

    CWP with old class certificate.

    I was wondering if I could get a new CWP in Florida with my old course certificate. I ask here because every doofus out there seems to give me a different answer when I ask any questions about it. Including the "educated" people answering the phone up at the state licensing office. Yeah...

    Colleges: Don't use real weapons, throw your laptop at 'em

    I read this and thought it was quite ignorantly flying in the face of the obvious. I would think we all support the right to carry on campus. I really don't understand the lack of logic. :banghead: I added bold for emphasis...

    Casting lead in copper jackets

    I was thinking about how most indoor ranges won't let you use cast bullet reloads. I was wondering why a copper jacket couldn't be placed in a bullet mold before molten lead is poured in so a jacketed round could be created after doing so. Is this possible? Has it been tried before? How...

    What is the deal with MSRPs?

    I was wondering if anyone here knew why manufacturer's of guns (or any manufacturer for that matter) set their MSRPs so different. They are always higher from what I have seen. I'm sure I don't need to post any examples, as virtually everyone on this site has done research on a gun before...

    "Do you give notice to homeowners before you concealed carry in their home?"

    So you have the basic question with the thread title. Someone in another thread said they don't carry into someone's home unless they clear it with the homeowner. This got me thinking and wondering if this is a common line of thought throughout the carrying community. Therefore, I created a poll...

    China's Gun Control operation deemed "successful" then reporters are shot

    These guys are geniuses. I would say there is a lack of gun control over there. Interestingly enough, no one shot anyone. The guns just "went off" by themselves...

    Civilian Army a backdoor dismemberment of the 2nd Amendment

    So I have heard of someone talking about a civilian army. Do you guys think that a Civilian army would just be a means of justifying the confiscation of guns along the lines of, "If you want a gun, join the Civilian Army? When I heard about it, that immediately came to mind. The Third Riech...

    The Pro Gun argument to end all arguments?

    Hey guys. I am always trying to convince people that guns are good things and carrying is even better. Of course, like everyone else, I come across those who were firmly against guns and/or firmly against carrying. But I have come across an argument that they cannot refute. I haven't met anyone...

    Ordered gun at $350, dealer demands more upon arrival?

    So a couple of months ago I ordered a rifle from a local dealer. He listed the gun as $350. He didn't have it in right then, but said he could get it in a few weeks. It has been more than 8 weeks and I have been hearing that the retail price has gone up on these (Saiga 7.62x39). If the...

    Hey guys. I had to order a Saiga 7.62x39 because my local shop didn't have one on hand. So here we are, over 6 weeks later, no sign of my rifle. I called them up and asked them how long they thought it was going to be. "Well I don't know. It could be two days from now and it could be...

    Hey there guys! I went to the Tampa Gun Show last weekend. I saw a surplus upper which was the old school kind without an assist and with triangular handguards. I went ahead and picked out the best one and paid the man $200. The bore is chromed but I don't know the twist rate. It has a...
