    I think that is a good time range. In 1970 I bought a Volkswagen. The Bug cost $1800 dollars. I bought the Karmen Gha model for $2300. Yes it was red. A decade ado introduced the modern bug. It cost $17,000. That was near 10x the 197o price. So considering today’s prices for advanced models...

    Don't ever say it couldn't ever happen to you. Arrested.

    Do you have a lawyer representing you? If not, you should get one quickly. It would seem to me from what you wrote that you should seek to have the trial delayed until the ATF responds with the evidence you need. I am not a lawyer, but the ATF has some responsibility since it regulates gun...

    How to deal with an armed robbery.

    A good starting point in considering the OP’s proposition is to understand the law of the state in which the offense occurs. I am in PA so my actions are governed by the following section of PA law. The important text was bolted by me. In PA use of any force requires that you be threatened...

    Single action specific drills and training.

    I think it would fun to shoot a SA revolver. I never have. In fact I have never owned a revolver, and I likely never will because the sole purpose of my owning a gun is self defense. Since I take defending myself very seriously. Accordingly, I choose to own and become proficient with a...

    Looking for opinions

    We store memories in our minds whether we have physical relics or not. The problem with relics from sad moments in life is that ever time we see them the sad memory is awakened. If I were in a similar situation I would sell the gun or destroy it. I would not shoot it. The last time it was...

    Increased value of an un-fired gun?

    From my personal experience an unfired gun can be a value handicap. I had a Walther PPS M2 that I never fired for several reasons not worth mentioning. Since it was new-in-the-box with all original items that came with it I thought I could get a good private sale deal. A couple prospective...

    Here in SE PA my LGS, Targetmaster, has a very small variety of handguns an long guns available. The inventory of those items seems to much less than in the last.

    When it comes to gun sizes for kids it’s. Like clothes. The grow into the larger sizes. Don’t cut down the rifle. The lad will be able to use it as is sooner than you thin. I started shooting at age 7 with a Savage model 29. It was way to big for me but at 9 it was fine.

    Affordable AR15s to better support Second Amendment "Right to Keep and Bear Arms"

    No specific firearm has any relationship to 2A. ‘Arms” is generic term. Debating the meaning of ”arms” is like debating the difference between white and brown eggs. 2A supports the choice of weapons. Choice is dependent on capability. Younger than I can imagine using am AR15 in battle...

    Considering An EDC Change: XD45 Compact to Wilson EDC X9

    I never shot a striker-fired 45. All my experience was with hammer-fired. I switched to 9mm in 2008 because my 66 year old hands were becoming arthritic and I wanted reduced recoil. I have owned and shot striker and hammer fired 9mm pistols. The recoil is noticeably less if you use standard...
