    AR price check

    I recently bought my first AR, got it two weeks ago. I ended up with a mid length Bushmaster and it's been flawless. I spent $850 new. I would not buy a used AR. 100 rounds through it? HA, my grandma only drove this car to and from church on Sundays... I shot more rounds than that the day I...

    Opening day in TX

    He attached his tag with the duct tape. In TX you're supposed to attach your tag before you move the deer. Nice buck and cool rifle. What caliber is it? 30-06?

    Late Gen Stoeger model 2000

    I have probably 2500 to 3000 rounds through my later model M2000 without a hitch. I did upgrade the modified and skeet chokes because the plating on the originals started peeling. Other than that, not a single issue. It has been a great gun and it's a great value. I have noticed the price is...

    I was "fake" robbed yesterday

    lloydkristmas (great handle BTW), you just had yourself a little life lesson. Live and learn. After all, it did happen at an institution of higher learning. College is full of little lessons like this one -- at least it was for me. Don't pay too much attention to the people telling you how dumb...

    Stoeger S2000 shotguns

    I have a Stoeger Model 2000. It does have the ramped rib and hi vis sight. I have shot roughly 900 rounds through it trap, teal, and dove hunting and have never had a jam, misfeed, or any other problem. I've used it in the drizzle, a salt marsh, laid it on the ground, probed brush for snakes...

    Laminated or Unlaminated (Nagant M-44)

    I recently bought a 91/30 with the laminated stock. My experience is much like Cosmoline's: the laminated stocked guns seem to be in better shape. I looked through about 40 rifles the gun show vendor had and the bores in the laminated stocked guns were in much better shape. May be something to...

    Home defense: axe better than gun? (from another forum)

    I would be worried I was bringing a hatchet to a gun fight... I honestly can't see how an axe, or similar tool, would be superior to a gun. Better than nothing, yes. Better than a gun, no.

    Incident at Car Wash

    Dirty Bob, Thanks for the comments. I'm none the worse for wear; I was a little shaken up for awhile. It could have been much worse. It was on Bandera Rd! You are a perceptive guy! It was at the newer, "nicer" car wash between Eckhert and Huebner, the one next to Texas Guns. Until this...

    Incident at Car Wash

    No metrosexual here- I was washing deer blood and mud off my truck.:neener: The pepper-spray is a very good idea. I'm going to get some tomorrow. I will also separate my home and car keys. That sounds like a good idea too. I only left my truck for less than thirty seconds the guy must...

    Incident at Car Wash

    This happened to me yesterday: During my lunch hour, I was at the car wash washing my truck. There were two other people at the place washing their vehicles a couple of bays down from me. I see a guy carrying something white approach each individual on his way to me. The guy starts heading...

    Looking for a Range in TX

    I live near 1604 and Braun, so I'm in the same general area. The Bullet Hole's rifle ranges suck. The 100yd and over range is mounted on wooden stilts and it wobbles whenever anyone moves around on it. The movement is severe enough that it makes sighting in your gun a nightmare. Moderate wind...

    Concealed Carry

    I live in San Antonio. I've been carrying for about two years. FWIW, I'm 6' 185lbs. I went through the CHL class qualification with a Taurus PT92. I attempted to carry this gun, but it wasn't practical. It's just simply too large to conceal adequately. I also tried to carry a 1911, a stainless...

    Anybody else taking extra precautions for HD the next few nights?

    Wow, some of you guys are WAY too paranoid! Some of you sound like the "weird guy" in the neighborhood - there's always at least one... PSST, I'll let you in on a secret: The whole world isn't out to get you. BTW, good for you grampster! What's wrong with you people! Buy a damn $5 bag...

    Why Are Range Officers Armed?

    I will contact the owner\manager of the establishment. If there was an incident involving this RO in the future, and I had not contacted them... Well, I would'nt want that on my conscience. Karma and whatnot. As some asked, the .22 shooter put the safety on his gun and set it on the bench...

    Why Are Range Officers Armed?

    XavierBreath, Thanks for clearing that up for me. I missed what you said about brandishing in you first post. And I wasn't sure if you could brandish an openly carried gun. They didn't cover any open carry topics in the CHL class... I wonder if it isn't easier to just take my business...

    Why Are Range Officers Armed?

    No the RO wasn't the owner. I thought the holster thing was out of line too. Did the RO actually break any laws? He was openly carrying, and he didn't remove the pistol from the holster, so he didn't brandish it. I wondered about this also. I am debating about telling the management about the...

    Why Are Range Officers Armed?

    The guy did leave very soon afterwards. We did too. The whole thing gave me a bad feeling and I can't stop thinking about it. It happened at my favorite range too, I go there 3 or 4 times a month.

    Why Are Range Officers Armed?

    I was at the range today with my son today and we witnessed the following exchange which made me wonder why ranger officers are armed. This takes place at the 50 yard rifle range. Range Officer: "SIR" 1 second pause "SIR" shouted VERY loudly Shooter: Was shooting a 10/22 roughly one shot...
