    Anybody use the Springfield Range Officer for CCW?

    Thanks for the responses. Does anybody have any experiences with the Harrison Rear Tritium sight? Would swapping out the rear adjustable sight with this make it as good a candidate for CCW as a Kimber TLE, Springfield Loaded / TRP, etc.?

    Anybody use the Springfield Range Officer for CCW?

    My understanding is that the general reason why people discount this particular model is because of the adjustable sights with the LPA cut. Has anybody tried to use it for CCW? Do the limited options for fixed rear sights get the job done adequately? I'm thinking of setting mine up for CCW. I...

    Where are good places to meet for a private FTF sale?

    I'm planning on selling one of my rifles to someone in state, but I'm trying to find some places where we won't likely be bothered by people. The last time I sold a gun, we met in a parking lot outside WalMart, but I was just selling a handgun at that time so it was easier to be discreet. A...

    10 Circuit Court upholds ban on concealed Carry

    I'm not well versed in how these things usually go. What will likely happen now? What can be done to ensure that carry rights are upheld?

    2nd Right Events: @ every capital Nationwide on Feb. 8th

    Went to the one in Oregon. Probably around 2,000 people there, many openly carrying. Police were friendly and didn't seem on edge at all. Had fun.

    A good sign on some gun shop shelves

    Store near me has a couple AR15's for sale, boxes of .223 and 9mm, and most surprisingly, a supply of 30 round PMags for sale.

    Are stores starting to catch up in supply?

    I see, must have hit a lucky break then.

    Are stores starting to catch up in supply?

    This could just be one rare example, but today I walked into my local gun store to buy a quad rail for my new AR and found their magazine rack fully stocked with 30 round PMags ready to go (reasonably priced as well), as well as a good quantity of .223 and 9mm ammunition. Perhaps I just got...

    Eastern Sports and Outdoors Show, Harrisburg, PA Boycott and Cancellation

    And this is why I do a majority of my gun related shopping at Cabelas. That and they're a 5 minute drive from where I live :-p

    Who has contacted their Reps?

    I've contacted both my senators and plan to contact my representatives when I have more time. I made it clear that I would not vote for them if they voted for any introduction of stringent gun control. Being that Oregon is a solidly blue state, my message probably fell on deaf ears...

    Machine guns have been very tightly regulated since 1934...

    And are used very rarely in crime. There have been 2 homicides in the past 78 years that were committed by a legally owned NFA weapon. Therefore, couldn't one argue that in this case the restriction of NFA weapons has resulted in their rarity in crime? Not an anti by any means and from my...

    "Why do you need 30 round magazines?"...

    Are you aware of any instances where a high capacity magazine was used, and needed to repel attackers? Perhaps such examples would work to show that it's not an impossible scenario. I tried to explain him the real purpose of the 2nd amendment. He, as many do, tried to brush that off as a "that...

    "Why do you need 30 round magazines?"...

    I actually used the sports car analogy and the alcohol analogy. Considering he loves cars and enjoys alcohol socially, I was shocked when he said he was fine with banning those (after trying to claim it was irrelevant). This actually surprised me given he's generally been more libertarian in...

    "Why do you need 30 round magazines?"...

    I understand that his argument doesn't make much sense to those of us who are pro-gun. Given all the anti-gun hysteria going on, I'd like to earn my own kin as an ally to this movement :) He got pretty heated, whereas I was calm as a cucumber. Could be a sign that he knows his argument doesn't...

    "Why do you need 30 round magazines?"...

    I've read the thread on how not to sound like an insensitive moron when debating about magazine capacity limits, but my brother and I got into a bit of a debate on this. His claim was that people don't need them for self defense and they only cause more harm than good. I tried to point out that...

    Magpul MOE Handguard + loose vertical foregrip question

    The rail that the grip is attached to. The grip itself is solidly on the rail. It's the rail attached to the handguard that seems to come loose.

    Magpul MOE Handguard + loose vertical foregrip question

    Hello all, After purchasing my AR15 a few weeks ago, I've since outfitted it with some Magpul furniture, such as the pistol grip, handguard and vertical grip. One thing I noticed was that after installing the vertical grip, it seems to loosen up after a while to the point that it has a slight...

    Thinking about selling a firearm here

    I've never done it before, but my understanding is that it needs to be shipped to a FFL that resides in the buyer's state. He'll pick the gun up there.

    Your best deal

    Uncle gave me a practically brand new W. German P228 for free. :-p Aside from that I got a very good condition used 870 Wingmaster for like $300.
