Thanks to Zumbo's comments and some of the excellent discussion on this forum I ordered 3 AR stripped lowers this week. Never felt compelled to own an AR before, now all of a sudden I decided I needed three.

As Highlander said, Dallas Police shot a 300 pound gorilla that got loose at the Dallas Zoo in 2004. The zoo keeps a few African caliber rifles on hand just in case, I couldn't find reference to caliber online, but I think I remember it being a .458 also. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4558461/...

About 15 years ago I had an American Derringer .357. After about 2 years of ownership I finally got around to shooting it. Shot it 4 times with full house rounds, found out what my recoil tolerance level was and promptly sold it. I much prefer my 642 now as a BUG, or always gun.

I am glad to hear you got your stuff back. I don't think it usually works out that way. Thanks for the post and I have been thinking I needed a safe for a long time. I have decided that I will not buy another gun until I have a safe installed to put them all in. I have the safe vendors card...

You might check out Bachman Pawn & Gun near Love Field. I picked up my Kimber TLE from them at their gun show booth but they keep a pretty good supply at the store.

Falconeer I sent you an e-mail with a question. Jack - I don't have a holster for my P239 yet but I have had really good luck with both Milt Sparks (Watch Six) and Rafter S Holsters or my other guns. Watching this thread to see what others have to say specific to the 239.

Well I commend you for the CPO Sig choice, I don't see the reason to pay for a new one while these are available. I love my stamped steel SIG 220 mainly because it fits my hand so well. It has never jammed.

I have been past my limit with a .357 Derringer. I bought it new, shot 4 rounds out of it, and sold it. A guy at the range let me shoot 3 rounds out of his .50 LAR Grizzly and that was okay, but I don't have any real desire to do it again. I don't have a real desire to shoot a .500 S&W or .357...

The forums are still there they just reformatted their front page, and you can't see them until you get inside a forum and use the "forum jump" button from the bottom of the page. I thought I had lost it too for a while, all of the state clubs, caliber clubs, etc. are still there.

I really like my Sig P239/.40, nice compact Every Day Carry piece. I am a big Sig fan. I haven't shot a P2000 though, I am sure they are nice.

I was in the Bigtown gun in Mesquite, TX a couple of years ago when somebody let a round loose from an AR-15. At least 2,000 people in the room went amazingly quiet for a few seconds while everyone looked around to see if anyone had any holes in them. Nearly the same situation, round bounced...

Started out thinking I would only be satisfied with a 5" steel 1911. I bought a quality belt and holster but I am finding I don't like the weight even though I can conceal it easily. I am looking for something lighter, carrying my J frame more often and looking into a Sig 239 or Glock 36 next.

I had the good fortune to grow up going to a hunting and fishing place on the weekends in Erath county 2 hours southwest of Dallas. It has good deer, turkey, dove, quail (some years), ducks, bass and crappie fishing. My family bought a ranch with 7 other families in 1974 when I was 5. It had...

Just send it in to Austin you will be fine. I received my TX CHL 3 days ago! I am a major procrastinator. I sent in the paperwork to Austin in December 2005. I took the class in February 2004. I think it used to be within six months from your class certificaion, but now it is 2 years. As I...
