    How long would it take a lefty to learn to shoot right handed?

    I am right handed, left eyed! I shoot handguns right handed, long guns left handed. No problems, with M14 type, AR15 type, Mossberg shotguns, or other shotguns that are safety switchable. Lever guns, or Ruger #1's are good, too. If I bought a bolt gun, it would be a Savage LH.

    Gov't looks for "Gun Melting" super spray

    It has always upset me that an American has to jump through hoops to get a class 3 weapon, but the same weapons are available to whoever in third world nations. I don't agree with desroying weapons at all, but how about we send the infamous Captain Crunch over there, so he will leave our stuff...

    Border parks damaged by illegal immigration

    What problem? It seems to me, that we have a good training ground for our troops and equipment in these parks. We have night vision equipment, too, and suppressed long range rifles, and troops in need of training prior to deploying to South Asia. IOW, Shoot, shovel, and shut up.

    Should traffic stops be abandoned ?

    Behave yosef, and get a life! As an ex peace officer, I can agree that alot of revenue is produced by traffic enforcement. That being said, I obey speed limits, traffic signals, keep all my lights working, and nothing louder than a Flowmaster series 70 muffler on my vehicles, and I am not...

    Good powder for 223- AR-15 specific.

    748 with WSR primers in GI brass w/ 55grain FMJ, although I want to try the 77 grain match projectiles. I use my AR15s for defence, animal control, and blasting.

    This isn't meant to be a flame thread,but.....

    Several guests or family members could provide cover fire with the Marlins while a shooter using a full power rifle reloaded, or woved to a better position. Some of my family members won't touch anything larger than 22 rimfire. I wouldn't want to be hit with a 22 rimfire, I would try to...

    .45-70 over 12ga. slugs?

    45/70 for me I prefer the Marlin in 45/70, but my guide gun doesn't fit me well. The straight stock doesn't feel as good as a pistol grip stock, like the 1895 rifle has. My Guide gun, blue finish with the ported barrel and Ashley sights is available for sale or trade on a Ruger #1 or...

    Winchester vs. Marlin

    why do some folks carry so many different guns?

    I say stick with one platform.... I have a two Colt 1911's, a Combat Government for wearing when I walk around the property, and a Lightweight Officers for CCW wear. Both operate the same way. I was a firearms instructor when I was a peace officer, and tried to explain that it is best to...

    Is AP ammunition legal in VA?

    I'm not trying to start something, But while I have no use for silly rules promulgated by any governmental authority, the plain fact is that at distances close enough to determine the target is a threat, 30 caliber ball ammo will walk through most vehicles. While it is nice to have, I won't be...

    Department store security authority

    Experience at book store I was browsing in a book store, found a paperback I wanted to read, and while holding it in my hand, I went into the music section to browse oldies. As I walked past the "cleverly hidden" chip detectors, the alarm went off. The two guys at the counter puffed out...

    Mossberg 500 problem- ejecting from magazine

    I have seen shotguns that are picky about the brand of shot shell they are fed, it relates to the dimensions of the shell rim.

    Whats wrong with my handgun work?

    Qualifying with 5906 In a previous life as a peace officer, I was a firearms instructor. Started instructing when the issue sidearm was S&W model 10, went to the sheriff's office where we eventually were issued S&W 5906. They still use 'em, in fact. I don't know where you live, but you...
