    VA Tech Killer Used Sig

    Fox news just showed the two guns used by the now identified killer. One, the 9mm was a Sig. I didn't get a good look at it, it was just a blip, but I believe it was a P226. I didn't get a good look at the .22, but they did show a picture of it. Many of the reports have said a Glock, but...

    Too senile for a gun

    Today at the range, this old man was shooting his .22 on the lane next to me. Someone yells "Range is dead" and everyone shouts it too make sure. Guns are sat down, the door is open so that people can replace targets. About 60 seconds after the call for a cold range, half the people without...

    Keep unassembled firearm on college campus?

    One of my friends was complaining of the troubles of being a college student away from home and owning guns. With college campuses not permitting a gun on campus, be it in a locked case or otherwise, it becomes a hassle to find a place off campus to store one's firearms. My friend got the...

    Introduced 6 people to firearms!

    My college just let out for Thanksgiving break and 6 of my teammates came to my house for a couple days. We have been taking turns going to each others houses on free weekends, so when it was my turn, I knew exactly what the form of entertainment was going to be... Three guys and 3 s from...

    Where to rent guns in Nashville?

    Greetings, I am currently in college in the great city of Nashville, Tn. I am trying to decide upon my first centerfire handgun. I am considering several 9mm's (Hi-Power, P226, USP) but have an intense desire to buy a 1911. They feel incredible to hold and are, IMO, the most beautiful hunk of...

    Harder to teach a shotgunner to shoot a rifle?

    I have recently taken up shotgun shooting (primarily clays, waterfowl in the fall). However, next summer when I enlist in the Army, I will be learning to shoot a rifle. So, in your experience as a riflemen, is it any harder to teach someone with a background in scatterguns to shoot a rifle...

    Shooting a .22 Rifle Good Practice for Shotgun?

    Someone today at the range told me that shooting a .22 rifle will improve your ability to shoot a shotgun. I must admit, I know very little about rifles and accordingly, very little about the related form and process involved when firing one. So, my question is this: Will shooting a rifle...

    Need a Soft Shooting Semi-Auto, Part Two

    I went in yesterday to place my order for the Beretta Xtrema2 that I had decided upon after posting a thread on this forum. Too make a long story short, when a manager called to place the order for an employee purchase, I was informed that we were no longer allowed to do so. :cuss: So, I now...

    Is Camo Necessary for Waterfowl?

    I am purchasing a new shotgun. I am stretching the wallet as it is and wanted to know if a camo shotgun is necessary or if I will be at any disadvantage not buying a gun in camo. I am buying the Xtrema2 and the base is abuot all I can afford. Would I be better off buying something cheaper...

    Need a Soft Shooting Semi-Auto

    I have grown up on my dad's Light Auto 5 (12 gauge), but I want my own shotgun now for a number of reasons. Firstly, I am a lefty, so if at all possible, I would prefer a lefthanded gun. I don't like shells flying across my face when I want to get a second shot off. It is distracting...

    Argument About Pacifism in College Class

    Today in my philosphy class at the college I attend, we got into a discussion over whether or not it is ever acceptable to respond with force in a given situation. The moment the topic was posed to me, I became a little heated that someone could even propose the idea that force might not...

    Hunting with Air Gun

    I live in an urban county and can't shoot a gun within county limits. :fire: So that means that I can't hunt squirrel or any other little varmints on my property. However, I COULD shoot an air gun, so I could hunt with that. :D However, I know very little about air guns. What should I...

    Should I field strip my buckmark?

    I just bought my first semi auto so all this is pretty new to me. I was about to field strip my new Buckmark Camper to clean it and just get to know it a little better, but I read a few posts on here that advocated not field stripping buckmarks because it is impossible to get the screws on the...
