    Question on CCP reciprocity

    I'm going to be moving to a state with CCP reciprocity to my current one. Is there any reason I would need a new CCP issued by the state I'm moving to if I have a lifetime through my current state? My only concern is if reciprocity is intended for temporary travel and the expectation is to get...

    In the market for a pocket 380

    Primary things I'm looking for are reliable, tiny, real sights (but don't need to be adjustable), and within my budget. Looking at the lcp custom, tcp, pico, and cw380 (this one being at the top end of my budget). Ive shot the gen 1 lcp and hated it, but have read the custom is much improved...

    Buying a handgun "out of state" (just moved to a new job)

    I recently moved states for work and am looking to purchase a pistol in the state I just moved to. I have an out of state driver's license and am currently subletting in an apartment until my more permanent apartment becomes available in the next month. I assume it is legal for me to purchase a...

    Savage Mark II BSEV

    Entertaining the idea of picking up a .22 LR as a long distance trainer. Any of you all have experience with this rifle? Love the looks of it and seems to get decent reviews online but can't find a whole lot. How's it compare to say the CZ455 line? Also curious about good...

    Vantage pro marking up flipping finger

    One of the downsides to the vantage is a flipper that barely protrudes from the backside of the scales. To compensate for this, I put a little pressure with my index finger on the end of the handle and slide it upward toward my palm so it "snaps" onto the flipper. Quick, easy, works well. The...

    Open carry question

    I'm sure this varies by state (and I apology if that makes this question overly difficult), but I just realized I don't know the legal dividing line between open carry and concealed carry (I don't carry a firearm, so please don't berate!). So there are the extremes IWB holster...

    SR22 Question

    I'm looking to buy an SR22, but before I do, I wanted to confirm something. I read that the earlier SR22's (marked on the slide near the muzzle "SR22 PISTOL", rather than just "SR22") had an issue with the steel slide stop gouging the aluminum slide. Does the change in marking from "SR22...

    Hawkbill blade for fruit peeling/slicing?

    This looks to be a perfect blade profile for a combo fruit peeler/slicer, but I haven't really found anything online stating its use as such. I love opinels and was originally looking at their pruner, but would rather something a little more amenable to fruit juices and the humid south, so have...

    Engineers - Why is making a reliable magazine so difficult?

    I've heard this frequently, and it seems to be the case, but it seems like a relatively simple thing - low stress, uncomplicated motion, etc. Just curious!

    Pepper spray vs dog efficacy

    I'm a big dog lover, but that doesn't change the fact that it's not terribly unlikely one will eventually be in the position to need break up a rough dog fight, fend off a dog charging a toddler, whatever. I've carried (and been fairly confident in) pepper spray (designed for humans - foxlabs...

    Advice on a (moderately boring) situation

    Hey all, Just looking for a bit of advice on any further action I should take with a situation. Background - I live in a studio apartment that is part of a house - the landlords live above me, and they do not know, to my knowledge, that I own a firearm (the topic didn't come up in renting...

    Mossberg 930 - Price I can expect

    Looking to pick up my first shotgun around christmas time hopefully, primarily to crack clays, and I think I've decided on the 930. I'd really like to keep it under 500, everything (transfer/tax) accounted for, but I haven't been able to see too many used on the market and was mostly wondering...

    Louisiana Car Carry Law - Question about Location of Car

    From what I've gathered googling, there are no restrictions on car carry in Louisiana, other than any concealment must not be on the person unless said person has a CCL. However, there are restrictions based on location as well - e.g. 1000 feet of a high school, military base, etc. Are all...

    Fist fight, blocked exit, CC

    Hi all, Just a hypothetical for you, no specific incident. Situation - You're concealed carrying. You get in a confrontation with another person (for the sake of it, we'll assume you had no role in escalating the situation). This person (even match or less to you physically, i.e. no...

    .22lr conversion practice benefit

    Is there much practice benefit to putting .22lr's out of an identical rig to your larger caliber pistols, relative to say, loading random snap caps and dry firing? The AA conversion for glock 19 looks like a lot of fun to me, but for the price to catch up practice-wise it would take 4 bricks of...

    Advice - EDC, ~$50, Self defense priority

    Hey all, Pretty much said it all in the title, but I'm in the market for an EDC knife with a focus on self defense, with a budget of around 50 bucks. I spend >90% of my M-F in firearm-prohibited zones, so I'd like a little non-firearm reassurance. I have done a bit of looking and am...

    DPM Multispring Recoil Reducer for Glock 26

    http://www.dpmsystems.com/en/products/ Anyone use one of these? Got good reviews on gunblast, just looking for more opinions as it isn't super cheap. I know the kick on a 9 isn't much, but less is always better, as is longer pistol part life. The pistol is for bedside/ccw/paper punching...
