    C&R Legal question

    Whether or not you transfer the firearm with a ffl or as a private party makes no difference as far as your C&R license is concerned. You would be legal either way as long as state law allows. Just keep proper records as required. Your "intent" is your private business and should be kept to...

    HELP on Bavarian carbine

    I would post this info on the CMP forum. You will be sure to get good answers to your questions. I love these milsurp carbines. Even well used they are superior to the aftermarket ones in my opinion and I've had both.

    WA state CCW friendly?

    So it seems that there is handgun registration at the state level in WA for a transaction through a ffl. If that handgun is later sold or transfered through a ffl in WA or another state are the records updated or is it still registered to your name in WA? How would state records know to update...

    WA state CCW friendly?

    If you have a concealed handgun permit in WA the waiting period for a purchase from an ffl is waived unless the background check comes back DELAYED or DENIED. Then you have to wait for a PROCEED call which may take up to three business days or file an appeal on the denial. It happens often as...

    Can I hand deliver a firearm to a FFL in a different state for transfer?

    I think it would make sense to contact a local dealer there and make shure they will make the transfer. Just because they can doesn't mean they will. Good to know ahead of time. No surprises that way.

    Savage 1899 lever

    Is this a rifle you have had for awhile or did you just get it. I have had a few Savage 99's and liked most of them but had 2 in 250-3000 and they were just plain worn out. Similar problems to what you describe. Neither was very accurate and I believe the loose lever is a safety issue as some...

    Reduced Load Fillers

    A few years ago I had a Ruger #1 in 45-70 and a 16" barrel. I figured 2400 would be an efficient powder for the short barrel but it left a lot of space in the case. I made a dipper that held the right amount of cornmeal to fill the case without a compressed load. I never had any issues doing...

    .45 ACP with 'Unique' - Density question

    OYEBOTEN there is enough advise in these posts for you to get started. A crude way to judge your loads is to shoot some standard factory hardball and compare recoil feel. Not precise but usuable and you will have a feel for when you go past it. What several people have tried to get you to...

    .45 ACP with 'Unique' - Density question

    As noted in the last two posts I was wrong about the change in Alliant Unique, the change was in Alliant 2400. Your load of 7 gr would be a heavy load and beyond maximum for Alliant data. They show 5.8 gr max for 230 gr roundnose lead with 1.27 oal and 5.4 gr max for 200 gr swc with 1.19 oal...

    .45 ACP with 'Unique' - Density question

    rcmodel now that you jog my memory I think you are right. I haven't reloaded much lately and just recalled Alliant talking about a change. I look in Lyman #47 handbook and they showed Unique loads maxing out a little over 7 gr but STARTING at 5.5 gr for a 225 gr round nose cast bullet. The OP is...

    .45 ACP with 'Unique' - Density question

    You should be cautious with Unique powder as it has changed slightly over the years. Alliant Powder, the current manufacturer lists max. load for Unique with 230 gr bullet at well under 7 gr. Their data is online at the Alliant powder site. You should know if you are using data for new or old...

    Killing roadkill?

    Best to just go on about your business. You will forget about the animal sooner than you will forget about prosecutions, tickets, and game law violations which may come up. Sad for a little while but not long.

    You know you are addicted to guns when?

    When you transfer money out of your IRA to buy another old Colt or Winchester because they might be a better investment. Done it a couple tmes.

    Brandishing firearm

    Old Lawman thanks for the links. Not knowing any of the people involved it would seem that they all made poor decisions that night. I believe that I have read before that if you draw your weapon or shoot it it's best to be the first to call the police. Doesn't look like alcohol helped any one...

    Handgun in government facility?

    Facilities managed by the Army Corp of Engineers are not usually military bases. If you entered the area without going through a guard post and it is not fenced and you can look up and see the sky and don't see any government employees standing at a counter or sitting at a desk you are probably...

    Old Lawman I have not heard of this case. Is there a link or publication giving the rest of the story?

    Handgun in government facility?

    You don't say if it is Federal or State facility but the restrictions on Federal facilities usually mean the defined area where a Federal employee can be expected to be present and doing their job. Usually an indoor area.
