    Good Day at the Skeet Range

    My gun club just installed a 13 position sporting clay set up this fall. I have never shot clays. Just dove and not very often. I joined a league that started just before Thanksgiving. We have about 14 guys shooting. The two guys heading it up are a Level 2 instructor and a Level 3...

    Prices

    Occasionally I can find a really good deal on GunAuction. All my top bids are at least $125 less than I can buy locally. Add in shipping and FFL and I save a little under $100. Trying to sell locally a Shield 9mm right now for $400. Has 3 magazines and is LNIB. All paperwork. Ad says that...

    What is the last gun that you bought?

    Up until about 30 minutes ago it was a Colt Combat Commander that came to me 98%. Beautiful gun and I'm still trying to decide whether to fire it or not. Most recent is a H&K USP .45 with a stainless steel slide. I'm not sure I'm going to like this gun, but it is the big brother to my H&K...

    Colt Going Down? Market says ...

    Guns sales were down last year, especially in the last half. Nothing new and exciting coming out. Plus, the fact that many people bought their first firearm within the last couple of years or stocked up on additional firearms. Many of those people are now trying to sell their (lightly) used...

    Those grips are beautiful.

    Good price?

    Seems high to me, too. Of course, condition is everything.

    Trade value

    Usually it doesn't mean anything. Just someone that knows he probably is not going to get his cash price. And, the "trade value" doesn't mean anything either. In my experience it's all barter for trades. People sell guns for different reasons. My favorite is the guy who states, "Want to...

    Auction Idiocy ...

    I've bought guns from both GunBroker and GunAuction. I always do a lot of pricing research on the item and have been happy with my purchases. Never sold anything on either one. I trade and sell guns with TexasGunTrader and ArmsList. Tire kickers get a polite, but brief no thanks. The worst...

    Republican Presidential Hopefuls in 2016

    I can't figure out why Huckabee is even running. Surely, he cannot raise the funds needed to make a decent showing. He left a high paying job at Fox to pitter patter around the country.

    New Glock commercial:

    Nice commercial, but not as effective as the Diner commercial.

    What handgun points more naturally for you

    1911, Beretta FS's, all the Sig P's except for the P938. Just picked up a H&K USPc 9mm and it is quickly becoming one of my favorite guns. Cannot shoot a Glock. Had 3-19s, 3-26s and a 17 and couldn't shoot any of them. I keep trading for one of them on the hopes I can learn to shoot it...

    First concealed carry, what to buy?

    I carried the Glock 26, but like others here I found it too thick for comfort. For the last year or so I carry my Sig P938. Great little gun and a lot of fun to shoot. Excellent conceal and if I'm wearing jeans, I can slip it into my pocket. Just got a Kimber Ultra Carry II. .45ACP...

    What Am I Missing? Purchasing 3 Handguns

    Beretta 92A1. 686. Buy a 22 conversion barrel for your Sig 229. They are really nice. Thanks. Now, I'm scheming a way to get the Beretta and the 686.

    First Time Handgun Buyers Advice...

    I agree with what some others have said about trying to get a "keeper" for $200-$400. That is going to be tough. An old coot at the range told me one time to not worry about what I pay for a gun. If it is good, it will last a long, long time. Just find the one that fits you. Learn to shoot...

    Warning use of Debit Card for Cabelas on-line purchases

    I'm in the gasoline business and the delay in issuing credits back to our customers' accounts is strictly on their bank. Not us. We run the credit to cancel the transaction and that shows up on our daily settlement. You should walk into your bank and demand that they refund your money...

    Finally !

    My favorite carry gun is the Sig P938. I can pocket carry when wearing jeans and hardly notice it with IWB holster. I just need to get some more range time with it. Too many guns and too little range time.
