    223 Bolt Gun or AR.......

    I'm with you. Trying to convince myself to like an AR, and I just can't. As it "improves", I tend to like it less and less. I qualified in Basic on an A1, didn't mind it but liked it better than the A2 I had in Korea. Both were much better in my opinion than the M4 I just qualified on...

    Open Carry of Rifles at an Airport

    Or, it will just become commonplace and no one will care. A lot of things that are commonplace now were looked down on at first: interracial dating, gay pride displays, etc. Now those things only get news when someone makes a stink, and comes off looking stupid. What did he do that was...

    Browning A5 Combat SG?

    I'd like to mount a bayonet on the end of an A5. I'd call it "The Singer" after the sewing machine. No - not practical at all, but it would be kind of neat. Of course, a true mount would wreck a perfectly good A5. ........Goes to get chef knife and duct tape......

    Ranges & Gun Shows: No Loaded Weapons!

    Yes - I find it hypocritical. I also find it irritating that the fairgrounds that usually has the gun show has a "no weapons" policy for other events it holds. Of course, this is all rumor. I don't read signs too well. Concealed is concealed. One thing of note - when the off duty LEO...

    well i looked at a ruger convertible in 45 colt/45 acp

    Mine is a great shooter with both cylinders. Only thing is that POI changes significantly - but there is a big difference between heavy hunting loads in LC and SD rounds in ACP - so that is to be expected. Get it, you'll love it.

    How do You Carry a Revolver Reload?

    Speed strip in my pants pocket. Speed loader in a jacket pocket, if I'm wearing a jacket. If I'm carrying a single action (.45 ACP) I'll throw a 1911 mag in my rear pocket.

    Firing both barrells

    Not the best move - but nothing to really worry about. I've done it plenty of times to show off. Also had an O/U that if the selector was set in the middle would fire both barrels. Definatly something that you want to be prepared for. Pulling both triggers, not bad - Pull one trigger, both...

    Grinds My Firearm Gears

    Folks who hate on Taurus for no reason besides it isn't a Smith (like THAT is worth something) Safety nazis People asking what I paid for a gun, or giving a price for a similar gun seen, in front of my wife

    Looking for a Defensive SEMI-AUTOMATIC Shotgun

    Keep it simple - get an A5 or Remington model 11. $300 used and reliable as the day is long.

    One damn proud daddy!

    My daughter (4) was told by my brother in law that you aren't supposed to point a gun a people. My daughter promptly corrected him and said that you CAN point a gun at a bad guy, because you can shoot bad guys, and she was playing, and her brother was being the bad guy. She also found my bb...

    Open carrying Police Chief in Uniform Told to Leave Gun Outside Ikea

    My dream is to open my own gunstore. I plan on posting it "No Open Carry". Since OC is "legal" in Mass, but is known to be asking for trouble by the police it is considered not smart. Therefore, my sign will only really apply to those above the law - the police. Without a warrant, you're...

    S&W Model 15: What should I know?

    I'd say it's a good price for a great pistol. I love mine, and find it on my hip more than my 1911. Comfortable to shoot, comfortable to carry concealed and dead nuts accurate.

    357 Snubbie, here comes the BOOM! (and fire rings)

    Now, what I'd like to see for the ultimate fun factor would be nighttime shooting of the "Mosin Nagant Pistols" - the sawn off "Obrez" that were used by the Boleshevik revolutionaries before they took hold of the armories. THAT would be mega fun factor.

    ruger convertiable 45c/45acp

    Yup, I've had mine about 20 years now and love it. Got rid of my Super Blackhawk when I found the heavy rounds in .45LC. Mine shoots .45Auto Rim also. Great gun for hiking, camping and I use mine for hunting Black Bear.

    NJ: Magazine Capacity Restriction Vetoed

    Grudgingly, I'll admit he went up a notch in my book. He's now at negative 19. Hope he falls in a well and the crane gets a flat tire before it gets to him.

    Shotgun or Lever Action for RV's

    What's wrong with you people? Both. One for you, one for your wife. Neither are scary guns, but..... Paint the stocks lime green, paint the barrels and receivers white, and the muzzles orange - store them with toys for the grandkids.

    Snubbies I'd like to see- Dreamin'

    Eight shot LCR in .22 Mag - they have an 8 shot .22LR, is the .22Mag that much more powerful? LCRx in .327 would be the bee's knees - 5 or 6 shot, I wouldn't care.

    Looking for a back up gun

    If you're carrying the Vaquero, I'd go with the idea of a revolver as BUG - but I'd nix the idea of a 642 or LCR. If you're comfortable with SA revolvers, your muscle memory may keep your thumb looking for a hammer and slow you down when there isn't one. I'd go for a S&W model 37, Ruger LCRx...

    "Possibily" Stupid Fireams Quotes ?

    I was looking for 16ga ammo once, and was told the store didn't have it (fine, happens all the time, even before the shortage). The clerk went on from Earth to planet ***. "You know, you can't use 16 for hunting" (it was close to bird season, good and accurate guess to my intended use)...

    "Possibily" Stupid Fireams Quotes ?

    "A guy in the gun store told me...." "A cop told me...." Neither of these end well or in truth - but are usually funny stories.
