    Bringing a new shooter into the fold at Coal Creek today.

    Hi all, and Mele Kalikimaka! We're headed over to Mecca, er, I mean Coal Creek Armory today to wring out a few pistols with my dad and my son (18) and daughter (20). Up 'till now, my daughter has shown very little interest in guns; however, she's got a new best friend who grew up in Montana...

    OMG Hell's frozen over in Knoxville!

    Hello all! Been a while. My dad the Anti has just called, and wanted to know where he could get a good price on a 38spl for home defense! :what: I maintained my composure, asked if anything had happened, and he said "No, I've just been reading all that $#!t you've been mailing me, and I...

    Need Suggestions for a Really Fun Range Session

    We have returned to Knoxville for a few days merriment with friends and family, and one of the things I would LOVE to do is take a couple of the fathers and teenage/pre-teen sons for their first range experience. We will, of course, cover safety issues and their importance, and I have brought...

    Help me choose a lever-action .22 rifle!

    I've decided that a pair of these for the kids would be the greatest thing since sliced bread. I know nothing about them, since right now all we've got in .22 is a semi-auto pistol and a Rossi single-shot with interchangeable barrells in .22 and .20 gauge. Any suggestions? Personal...

    Moving to Birmingham...where to shoot?

    I've taken a job in Birmingham, and would like to know where some good ranges are in/around that area. Also, I anticipate moving to the area once I'm settled into the job. Where are the most gun-friendly areas of town to live in? Would those areas also include ways to avoid the awful...

    Anybody know the 411 on the Taurus Triad?

    I was excited a few months back to see that Taurus was looking to introduce a new revo that would include the ability to shoot 9mm, .38spl, .38super, and .357mag. Suddenly, it's no longer on their website, except for some little blurb that says "sorry, we do not have any information about the...

    Let's talk about trunk guns and rust

    Most of the tools and "stuff" I put in the trunk of a vehicle that are there for any length of time wind up caked with rust and unuseable. The thought of putting a gun in the trunk to be able to pull it out on short notice and have it work seems a study in futility. That is, unless I make...

    Price check for a single stack 9mm (and WHICH ONE?)

    Aaargh!!! I'm frustrated in my quest for a CCW. I'm convinced to reclassify my P32/P3AT's to BUG status, and I'm ready to get a new CCW. I HAVE decided it's to be a single stack 9mm. It needs to be small and reliable, and I'd prefer it to be DA/SA. If it's going to get carried daily...

    Colt Mustang: available in 9mm? If not, what's next best thing?

    Hi all, I really am starting to like the looks and apparent concealability of the little Colt Mustang. The .380 chambering doesn't really thrill me, though. Is it available in 9mm, and if not, what's the most similar gun I might find? FelMo

    Which gun is a Macintosh?

    Think for a moment along the lines of Apple computers vs. PC's... Macs work like you THINK they should...intuitively. PC's are a learned process, an "acquired taste", if you will. My last few range trips have left me wondering... Some of my handguns fall to hand very naturally, and seem...
