    I guess it's time to stockpile ammo

    Possibly one of the most important moves by the senate was to refuse to allow a vote on any nomination by Obama for the Supreme Court. One of Trumps first steps in office will be to nominate a 2nd Amendment friendly Justice, it will give the conservatives a 5-4 advantage once again. Clarance...

    If you want an articulate response, ask a detailed and insightful question.

    What Gun For Bears?

    It all depends on what type of bear you're hunting and what style or form of hunting you're going to use. For hunting over bait, you're looking at short range shots and something like a marlin 444 is the perfect recipe. If you're doing the spot and stalk approach then you're going to need...

    What are the farthest and closet shots kill shot made

    My longest shot was an Elk in northern Montana, 525 yards using a 270 grain partition my Colt Sauer in 375 H&H. The shortest was whitetail hunting using a marlin in 444; shot the buck at five feet and knocked him clear off of his feet. He was dead before he hit the ground.

    Out-of-the-box, Who's best?

    The Poster requested replies for the best "out of the box" quality but didn't specify hand gun or long gun; that being said almost everyone expressed interest in various handguns. When I think best out of the box quality, my first thought is my cooper 22-250AI. Not your run of the mill...

    Is reloading really worth it?

    As several posters have already touched upon, the key element of reloading is the experience itself; simply put, most of us who reload do so because we enjoy reloading, it's a hobby. For those who shoot on a regular basis there is cost savings involved after you get past accounting for the...

    How many is too many for cc?

    The biggest problem you're going to run into is deciding which gun to pull first if the occasion ever arises where you will need to defend yourself. Seriously, with four different weapons, what are you going to do; ask the attacker to pause momentarily while you decide which firearm will best...

    Connecticut to Ban Gun Sales to Those on Federal Terrorism Lists

    Connecticut already has a state background check that they mandate in addition to the federal.

    Pocket-carry 9mm?

    I second the Kahr, PM9, or any of its companions. Single stack, three inch barrel makes for a comfortable front pocket carry.

    After this recent madness

    I don't think any spikes in sales will be long lived except for the possibility of AR 15s and other semi-automatic rifles if Hillery gets into office. The liberals have made up their collective minds that so-called black guns have to go so, I can see a dramatic spike in their sales. Over the...

    anybody have more details on this incident?

    I'd like to be able to get up every morning and read 3-4 news reports like this across the country. The unfortunate reality we have to live with is, our liberal press focuses on the unfortunate victims of firearms violence and rarely takes the time to give balanced reporting to situations where...

    Buy or sell, guns or ammo

    I'll continue to purchase what I consider quality firearms on a regular basis and stock up on the ammunition. This amounts to 3-4 firearms a year and monthly purchases of ammo above and beyond what I typically shoot. If the she-devil somehow makes her way into the white house, together with my...

    The Panic may be over but gun sales aren't

    The notion of removing tens of millions of semi-automatic pistols and rifles from the American public is wishful at best for these progressive fools. If one percent of firearms owners decide to stand their ground and fight as opposed to quietly surrendering their arms, this nation would be...

    I want to avoid an adrenaline rush

    As others have made mention, there is no replacement for field practice. The more you shoot and the more acclimated you become shooting, especially freehand, the more comfortable you will be when you shoot a deer. Too many people sit at a bench and never practice shooting in the position they...

    Why are shotguns so reviled for big game hunting?

    For me, there are several reasons why I use a rifle rather than a shotgun. Most importantly, my shots often exceed two hundred yards, distances that shotguns are simply not designed for. The recoil of my deer rifles are half that of shotguns with slugs and, the rifles are lighter. In short it...

    Varget

    It's spotty but I have been able to pick up what I've needed. The local Cabela's had 1 pound containers just a few weeks ago and last month Powder Vally also had 8 pound containers. What I've noticed is that if you review the major online sites on a regular basis, you can and will find what...

    Surprise (to me) - The Cost of .22 Ammo Has Gone Down ?

    Something tells me that in another 12-18 months 22lr ammo is going to be as plentiful as 223/5.56. Everyone I know who shoots has enough to last them through the next great depression and most people on threads talk about the quantities of bricks they've managed to store up on. I personally...

    How do you stack up?

    I've got a Smith & Wesson Model 99 in 45 ACP that I've owned forever. I had a Winchester model 70 post 1964 circa in 30-6 that I only kept for a short time. Decided that I didn't need a stamped metal rifle that couldn't group worth a damn and kicked like a mule. Traded it for a Sako Finbear...
