    A quality sportster style .22LR semi-auto that is not Ruger/Marlin/Winchester/Savage?

    I'm going to second the henry comment.. new shooters will LOVE a lever gun and getting to be a cowboy. If it has to be a semi, and different norinco/international makes one..

    Move firearms from museum to storage - advice needed

    i would guess the vast majority of them are actually hammer fired, you could simply put a pencil or other soft object between the actual hammer and striking surface to prevent a potential discharge.

    Taser is getting some competition.

    except when someone is attacking you, in which case a potentially lethal response is a command to leave you and yours alone. non verbal, perhaps, but none the less.. :neener:

    $.17/rd 9mm russian steel at sportsmans guide??

    Hi, I was just contacted by the FFL that transferred me a handgun recently, they were calling to give me the NICS transaction number, as they forgot to include it in the pistol sales record slip. the problem (or possibly non problem) is that i've already given the state police "their"...

    New to Revolvers - 637 "Deep Cover" Question(s) and Advice

    thanks for the thoughts all, i think i'll order a set of grips that covers the backstrap and give the j frame a go. I played with it a little more today, and i really do like the trigger, it feels very smooth and has a predictable break that i can hold the hammer on the edge of without any...

    New to Revolvers - 637 "Deep Cover" Question(s) and Advice

    Hi, while i've had a few handguns in my life, i've never had a revolver. i had not really though seriously about owning a revolver, honestly. I don't have anything against them, just never really thought about it. :o Well a few weeks ago - buddy got a new glock 20 and wanted to go to the...

    Safety Bullet

    imho he's shaking the tree to see what will fall out. he's probably hoping that the site is taken down no questions asked by menacing the owner. I see a lot of this these days, threat of legal action makes a lot of people do things that they do not want to do. If you tell them bring it, i'll see...

    2 shots accidentally fired at Mt. Clemens gun show; 3 hurt

    Holy Crap! My Dad and Nephew were talking about going to that show, but ended up going to the Sandusky tractor show instead. I'm glad they did, now! the thing that struck me as odd was that the owner ALSO fired off a round? seriously?

    Well, THIS was unexpected . . .

    this is exactly why i LIKE jon stewart .. regardless of his personal political leanings he makes fun of both sides equally. He somehow remains unbiased in reporting regardless of his personal views when it seems impossible for a lot of other "news" outlets to do the self same thing.. and he...

    Well, THIS was unexpected . . .

    While i have to agree that the daily show isn't a "serious" news outlet.. watch some "real" news channels and you will find that.. quite a bit of the time, neither are they! CNN has random crap of the day, vote for the news story, and gives 24 hour live coverage to dead pop stars. Fox reports...

    Do most antis have reasons for being anti?

    some anti's are irrational. My wife would qualify for that. She isn't exactly an anti that would be for outright banning guns, but she doesn't like them. She understands that firearms are a part of my life, and tolerates it, but i truly believe that if some dude kicked in the door intent on...

    What appeals to new shooters

    i can understand your friends feeling about trigger pull. First smokeless powder handgun i ever owned was a SA XD and i thought the trigger was fine, having nothing to compare it to. My friend didn't like it at all, but most of his pistols have had significant time with a gun smith to customize...
