    Amend LEOSA to have 50 state carry?

    I doubt that it would be able to get enough support at the federal level. It took a fair amount of effort to get LEOSA passed in the first place. As far as the part in bold, and underlined above, that is something most people overlook. First, while the majority of the states are shall issue...

    Agreed as far as the larger public companies, most fail to realize that aspect.

    S&W and Ruger give up on selling semis in California

    I tend to agree with you in that the government sales, directly or indirectly, are of large importance to the larger firearm companies. Historically S&W and Colt's had the majority of the market, and then when autoloaders came common, the market share slid down. It would be important for at...

    More Americans are Carrying than ever before. The numbers don't lie.

    I read the article but I didn't see the numbers to support more people carrying...It was discussing permit numbers, instead of th actual number of people carrying. I can count the few people who have a permit and carry on one hand. Id have to make a long list of folks I know who have a permit...

    Collins Introduces Bill To Eliminate Unconstitutional Sporting Purpose Distinction

    It has my support, but I also hope that the Hughes amendment really is next. That's the 2 main issues I have the the second amendment as it stands now.

    Indiana Legalizes Deadly Force Against Public Servants

    I would add, "and how well versed are you in analyzing and making a decision within seconds, (or less), whether the actions of LE were lawful or unlawful?" knowing that the result will be debated time and time again, even before it reaches the court system. interesting to note...

    84% of Brits Want UK Handgun Ban to End According to Poll

    I'd like to know also. I saw on at least one firearms forum a post to "hit this poll" so I am curious just how many from the UK voted in the poll itself, vs folks from other countries, since it was an online poll.

    Completely 3d-printed handgun done on cheaper printer

    come to think of it, I think the real question would be when will a completely 3d printed firearm be available? We already have the "liberator" design. There are several companies that have or are developing polymer case ammo. That leaves 3 things. Primer, Powder, and Projectile. I feel...

    Completely 3d-printed handgun done on cheaper printer

    Evidently firearm owners are not the only ones looking at 3d printing for weapons/parts. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/navy-could-soon-3d-printers-manufacture-drones-weapons-183412096.html Its a short article, but it left me thinking of. With 3d printing in the future and the new...

    In NC for my dept and others close by for pistol its 50 day time and 50 night time, once every 12 months. No practice ammo either. Shotgun its 5 rounds buckshot daytime, 5 rounds slug daytime, and 5 rounds buckshot night time, 5 rounds slug night time. During qualification you shoot up last...

    Home Invasion Hostage killed by Police Fire

    While I admit it is tragic for the hostage and their family/friends, beyond that, I have to wonder where this thread will go... Will it be that LEO doesn't practice enough to be an expert shot, or will it be that LEO needs to practice less due to conspiricies on ammo availability?

    America Unrecognizable

    While I do support other countries advancing their freedems in respect to firearms, I'm not sure what having folks from other countries will help with the US political climate, beyond trying to establish norms around the world. If your talking about hyphinated-americans, well, I was always told...

    Will you buy from dealers at shows?

    Its been a couple of months since I went to a gun show. As of now, I can say I would not buy from a dealer or individual at a gun show. The prices are way to much.... 550 for a S&W 442, 1600 for a basic AR, and 700 for a glock, not to mention ar mags for 75 up...I pass. Others can pay the...

    More press on DHS Ammo

    And in a few days I am sure there will be comments in some way about how law enforcement are terrible shots and need to practice more...But oh, they dont need ammo to do it.

    ge capitol cuts off loans to gun shops

    no problem to me. I have the right to pick and choose which companies I want to give my business to, just like they can choose a customer. I wont use them. Its your choice if you do.

    Are armed citizens overrated?

    Possibly... I know tons of guys (typically younger, but not always) who think they will save everyone, and are the only ones "trained enough" to have a firearm, but yet have never been there. I heard it during the hunt for the boston bomber about how a gun owner should find the guy. But in the...

    Arizona passes new law to mandate resale of guns bought at buybacks!

    Hmm...I read the article, and have to ask the unpopular question. So, LE must sell the firearms now. Ok I got that... A, who gets the money from the sale? B, who funds the cost of the sale? I confess I am not familier with AZ law, but I know in NC the schools get the money from the sale...

    Cops are Overwhelmingly AGAINST Gun Control

    No, POTUS doesnt order the police. Their Chief, or admin do, which, as is part of that position, politics come in to play. Also, I still contend, having been asked if I was "interested" in certain things (political events), that the officers in question, have a choice and made such. Also I doubt...
