    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...

    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...

    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?"...

    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

    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...

    For those in the city, where do you practice drills?

    Hello all, I'm in the unfortunate situation where I live in a somewhat urban area and all nearby ranges have relatively strict rules as to how guns can be used (no holster drills, no moving drills etc). I've thought about driving out every now and then to the woods to practice, but the...

    Just picked up my first AR15, what to do now?

    Hello all, I just purchased a brand new Windham Weaponry AR15. I've heard great things about it and decided to take the plunge. I'm brand new to this whole AR15 thing so I'm not totally sure where to proceed from here. I will probably end up customizing this rifle extensively as I get time...

    AR15 vs 1911

    Hello all, So I've been saving up some cash to buy a new firearm, but I'm caught between which to buy. I've always wanted a 1911, but the AR15 bug has bitten me. My current gun collection consists of a Glock 17, Glock 19, HK P2000, SIG P228 and a Remington 870 Wingmaster. As you can see, I...

    Couple of questions regarding the laws...

    Hello all, I have a few questions that I've been wondering the answer to. 1) Let's say you're carrying a firearm out on the streets and get jumped. The mugger demands your wallet and already has his gun out and pointed at you. Say you give the mugger and he's on his way, is there a problem if...

    Was involved in an automobile accident while carrying...

    ...and lo and behold, I didn't shoot anyone! What you may ask!? You mean a shootout over an accident didn't occur on the streets!? I know, shocking... But yeah, it seems that nobody was hurt, which is good, and it looks like that the other driver was at fault (rear ended). The police were...

    A sad day for Oregon University students...

    Disgusting - I'm ashamed to be a part of this university system. I'm not entirely sure this is legal, but all I can say is that I believe in personal safety, policy or not. It's amazing that these so called scholars can be so incapable of even basic thought processes...

    Is it legal to draw your weapon when nobody is around?

    This is not something I have ever done nor intend to do - it's just a theoretical question that I've been wondering about. We all know that it's generally unlawful to just draw your gun for no apparently reason when in public around other people. However, what if somebody, for example, felt...

    Carrying a rifle / shotgun from car to home... - OR

    Is it legal to transport a rifle / shotgun openly from one's car to their home without a case if it's unloaded? I'm in Oregon if that helps.

    Does one need to change the address on their license in this situation?

    Let's say that someone owns two houses and has recently moved from one to another. If the mail is routed to the new house and ownership is maintained of the old house, does the 30 day rule to change the address apply? If one forgets to submit a change of address and does so past the...

    Just got a Remington 597 for Christmas...

    It's in .22 LR. I was wondering if anybody knows anything about this rifle. I've been reading about it a bit online and have seen consistent complaints about jamming and reliability issues. From what I can tell, it's from the magazine. I believe I have the 3rd generation magazine. Is...

    New Glock 19 (pictures)!

    Hello all, just added another handgun to my modest firearm collection. It is, none other, than a Glock 19! Haven't had the chance to take it out to shoot yet, but I intend to do so in the near future. Below are some pictures for you all to see :) The Glock next to the case and all the...

    A question about the Gen 4 Glock 19...

    Hey all, So I picked up a Gen 4 Glock 19 today and haven't yet had the chanceto fire it. I liked the ergonomics better than I do the Gen 3 Glock and decided to pick it up. my understanding is that there were some significant problems with the older Gen 4 9mm Glocks. My question is, do the...

    Just bought a new HK P2000 and have a question...

    Hey all! So I got a pretty good deal on an HK P2000 earlier today (unfired, night sights, and everything included for $700 OTD). I have a question though: -For those who have purchased a new HK, did it require a break in period for it to run everything well? My gun thus far has been...

    Oregon joins the list of states allowing concealed weapons on college campuses...

    Being a student at the University of Oregon, this is fantastic news, and shocking. I wasn't expecting a ruling this soon. http://www.gazettetimes.com/news/local/article_72c61cf4-eb1f-11e0-9bd4-001cc4c002e0.html Of course the OUS wants to appeal it, but they will probably fail given the law is...
