    My Mom Wants a Revolver

    Thank you all for the replies. I finally pulled it out of the safe and it's an S&W 637 in .38. I bought it a year or two ago on a whim, put it away and haven't seen it since. LOL. I will take her to shoot it with some ball and lower power self defense cartridges and see how she really likes it...

    CMP Store Northern Ohio

    Thank you for posting this thread. I go to Ohio yearly and I had no idea that store was there in Port Clinton. I can't afford anything in there but I'll still swing by in November.

    My Mom Wants a Revolver

    She doesn't feel safe anymore and wants a gun on hand. She really likes the feel of my S&W 38 (or 357 or whatever it is - can't remember - never used it). Anyway, I can give her mine or she can buy something. I am concerned about the recoil though and am not sure what to recommend. What is...

    I've seen some cringe worthy acts at the range but this is.....

    Thankfully they have med packs on hand so when someone gets shot in the head they can treat it...

    Southern Ohio Gun (SOG) just shut down???

    Local shop by me just closed as well - probably because of the cold gun market.

    Minnesota Republicans introduce two extreme gun bills

    Whoever wrote that article is being so dramatic. Please show us one example of somebody getting away with a shooting to prevent a bad check from being written. Stupid liberals. Anyway, no, they will not pass.

    When is "premium" brass worth the extra money?

    That works? I figured surface tension would make it impossible to measure such small volumes. What kind of differences do you see between cartridges?

    Cold morning at the Gun Show, Florida.

    The internet killed gun shows just like ebay and craigslist killed flea markets. Pre-internet you could find cool stuff cheap. Now it's a world market for everything.

    Happy dance!

    Congrats OP! I am also working on a membership to my local club. Also, as a side note, many clubs have a lot of old farts that don't want new members. They think the new "kids" shooting their concealed carry weapons at 15' and double tapping their ARs is ridiculous. They close the membership so...

    What has happened to THR

    I like the new board, especially since it's responsive. I think with just a little bit of tweaking they can make it great. For example, I made the logo much more readable in like 30 seconds:

    Hi. I'm old and went through basic in 1959.

    Marksman would load their own from used brass. Whatever they didn't use or didn't like ended up back into the mix for the new guys to shoot up.

    Too good to be true?

    I sold $3000 worth of guns for $1200 a few weeks ago because I needed the cash that day. It happens.

    A new appreciation for THR

    I agree completely. I remember when they closed a thread about high-point guns because "we have discussed this enough."

    A new appreciation for THR

    I used to stop in every day but now I just drop in every few months to see if there is anything interesting going on. I think the mods on here are generally overzealous. Molding a discussion into what you think it should be is a slippery slope and I think some of the mods may have fallen down...

    Leaving NJ for America

    Drive the speed limit. Don't let them search if you are pulled over. Make them get probable cause. If you are searched they can probably (based on state law) take everything without cause and you will have to sue to get it back. Stay in free states as you mentioned. Congrats on getting our of...

    Time for a long gun as well as hand gun?

    There are alot of people that prepare for the possibility of a SHTF situation or aftermath of a terrorist attack. They conveniently assume that they will be at home when it happens. Unless you always stay within a few miles of your home, it's not a bad idea to have a rifle in your vehicle. What...

    Cleaning guns with Simple Green?

    As hickok45 says, spray it down and let it sit. The dirtier it is the longer you let it sit for. It's just like soaking dishes. The dirtiest dish will rinse clean if it's been sitting in hot water for long enough.
