Down range, Camp Shelby Mississippi, Loader on M-60A3 Main Battle Tank circa 1992. I was new to Armor, this was my first time in a live fire. We had made several runs that morning when the "three man crew" senario came up. Normaly the crew consists of a commander, gunner, loader and driver. In...

Good luck with that.

You asked if I was going to walk to the management area. Since I usually like to drive I answered that it is legal to carry an unloaded pistol SECURED away from the driver without a permit. The laws you quote pertain to LOADED firearms. And carrying a loaded long gun in your vehicle will get you...

Jimmy, the pistol permit is actually a concealed carry permit. If you carry an unloaded pistol in your vehicle you don't need a permit, just keep it secured AWAY from the ammunition as you would a rifle or shotgun. Locking them in seperate cases works. Last Febuary we went on a wild hog hunt in...

Actually, Alabama Game Laws HAVE changed to allow handgun hunting in Wldlife Management Areas. You must have a valid Concealed Carry Permit, though. Not sure why as you can carry it open but it's their rule.

Umm, I think I would use another FFL next time. A gun he didn't order shows up and it takes a month to get curios?

Don't do it. We made that mistake when my wife was about 5 or 6 months along with my oldest. With the .38 we had no problem but when I lit off the .357 she swore she felt our daughter jump! As stated before, the sound is the biggest problem. It ain't worth the risk!

My plate reads "GUNDOC". I help out at my buddies gun store and do a lot of gunsmithing for him and my friends. Also, my C.B. handle is "Doc" (my real job is as a truck driver) so it works out. Does it advertise? Maybe. But you only go around once in this life so you might as well enjoy it and...

The store in question is legally obligated to provide you with a form or address to send in to the FBI so you can ask why you were delayed. I know, it happened to me. I sent the form in, a few days later I recieved a letter saying it was being processed. I never heard back, but the next gun I...

Funny thing about Sigmas. Most of the detractors gipe and whine about the trigger. Then I hear folks gripe and whine that Glock triggers ar too light and there is concern for an AD. The truth is, the Sigmas DAO trigger is no worse than a revolver is. It ain't a slick 1911 trigger, but it makes a...

Howdy! The reason for two revolvers is that most stages call for two pistols. Origionally only one was required but over the years the trend is for two. Rifles must be lever or slide action, pistol caliber. While definatly period correct, a Sharps can't be used for a main match gun. They are...

I knew the race card would be played eventually. I guess I should let it drop but Iam so sick and tired of the crapp that gets told on us. Do we have racism? Sure do. Is it worse than anywhere else? I don't really think so. I have heard as many or more racial slurs come from the mouths of...

Well, I'll have to cast my vote for the great state of Alabama. However, Tennesse or north Georgia would be good choices as well. I drive a truck for a living and get to see a lot of the South. You can't really go wrong. As to the aformentioned tornado problem, well, we have tornados, California...

Thanks for the replies, and thanks for the article, Tinkerer!

I've read before how to build an electronic bore cleaner, in fact I had a web site with the instructions saved. Unfortunately, now that I am ready to build it, the site is gone. I have the guts of the mechanism ready but have a question. Where are the positive and negatice leads attached? I...

Thanks! Now I under stand the differance! I appreciate the information.

Ok, this might seem silly, but I have ta ask. Other than the priming system and the powder measure, what is the big differance between the 500 At and the 550b? Does the 500 turret load only one round at a time like a Lee turret(my current press) or does it have several in various stages of...

It was a little before my time(born in '70!), but I watched it in re-runs. You're right, it's a great show. I saw some on AMC on satillite the other day. Not sure if it is a regular, though. Or it might have been on the Stars Action channel, hard to remember.

I agree about the good info from the site. I have used it several times to research carry laws in my state and in surrounding states. But it appears the forums may lack a little. Of course, this is just one thread. That is very little to judge a forum on, but it would look like SOMEONE would...

Personally, I want to see some of that "500 foot pound" 9MM ammo! Heck, my .45 only produces about 385!! 1000 lbs to stop someone? Heck, better rearm with a .44 mag, my "small" stuff ain't gonna work!
