    Why dont most gun site people shoot more?

    Tim, The folks here at THR are the good guys, and from now on we should include a posting with the get togethers on this site as well!! :D I would also agree 100% with Pax. There is a significanlty higher precentage of arm chair folks at that board than most. I had asked over at...

    Moving with Guns

    I work for the 4th largest van line, Graebel. It is against DOT regs for a mover to move ammo & handguns. Long guns are a-ok. However, even working for the company, I would move my firearms myself. I would not worry about them being stolen or damaged, but a catastrophic loss of the shipment...

    Buying hand guns on auction sites? Any problems?

    I have bought and sold over at GB and AA for years. Mainly when buying, though, I have bought from a dealer. I do pay close attention to the sellers feedback. I have had all positive experiences to date. I have also bought and sold through the site here with no problems.

    what should I look for in 9mm

    I have a small hand as well (cadet medium), and have found several guns that fit me perfectly: Beretta Cougar "L" model (much smaller grip than a 92FS) Sig 239 (perfect for carry) Walther P 99 (interchangeable backstraps, small fits great) Springfield XD-9/XD-9 compact (just fits a smaller...

    DPMS M4A3 for $850. Yes or no?

    I have several DPMS rifles and all have functioned perfectly. Fit and finish was better than the Bushy or Colts I have owned. The main difference between them all is the barrel, DMPS are not chromed lined as standard, but neither are RRA or Armalite. Bushy and Colt are. This turns many...

    "I was trying to blow his brains out is what I was trying to do"

    Taken from a similar thread at AR15.com, I thought a bit funny: Just think how that 911 call went. "Hello, 911 emergency." "Yes two men BANG! are trying to rob BANG! our store and are shooting at us." "Where are you?" "Im behind BANG! the register. Hang on, I gotta reload...

    What bullets can you shoot with a 1/7" twist AR-15 barrel?

    With a 1 in 7 twist you can shoot anything between 52 and 80 grain bullets. A 1 in 8 will shoot the same range, also including 45 grains. A 1 in 9 will shoot 40 grain to 75 grain bullets. Good shooting!!!

    6.5 Grendel in a bolt action

    I'll let you all know how it works in about a month. I have a Rem 700 action currently being tuned and fitted with a new Lothar-Walther 6.5 Grendel barrel. I already have a factory Grendel upper, shoots great. I thought I would just keep my handloading simple so went ahead with a bolt gun...

    Moving with Ammo

    I work for a moving company - we cant move ammo. It falls into the "explosives" catagory, as well as primers and powder, as defined by DOT. If you do "sneak" it into the shipment and there is ultimately a problem, fire, explosion, etc, you will be held liable for not only your goods, but the...
