    a letter from my site visitor - and my humble reply

    I think it's two sides of the same coin. Movies and video games can indeed influence behavior in people. And guns can enable some people to commit more violent crimes than they could otherwise. In either case though, it's an individual's chosen actions that are the real problem. I don't mean...

    On the fence about firearms--for home and personal defense

    It's been mentioned already, but as an owner of a GunVault (www.gunvault.com), I highly recommend it. I've got kids and they've got friends, and I absolutely believe that an unsecured gun in that environment (no matter how much I educate my kids) presents more of a risk of personal harm than...

    a letter from my site visitor - and my humble reply

    How can you criticize someone for blaming guns for crime, and then yourself blame movies and computer games?

    Help with SC CWP rules

    Here's a good reference for the SC code of laws regarding CWP's: http://www.scstatehouse.net/CODE/t23c031.htm I can't imagine such a requirement as the one you were told. Possibly the guy, or his instructor, has misinterpreted the code as being more specific than it really is: (5) "Proof of...

    Help with SC CWP rules

    I don't know the answer, but I got my SC CWP last year, heard nothing of it then, and have never heard of such a thing since then.

    Beth's Got a Gun

    I had a few thoughts after reading the article. First, it was pretty well written, in my opinion. There's always something that could be picked at, but it was reasoned and informative. It provided information on laws, the process of obtaining a CWP, etc. Second, I was shocked that someone...

    Beth's Got a Gun

    After a quick search, I didn't see that this has been posted yet. The following article was front page, big and bold, last Sunday in the Charleston, SC, Post & Courier (our largest local newspaper): http://www.charleston.net/news/2007/dec/02/beths_got_gun23826/ Here's an excerpt, see the...

    Online gun encyclopedia/catalog/digest

    I wouldn't say it's comprehensive, but I think this site is in the spirit of what you're looking for. I found it to be plenty of information for a relative novice (me). www.gundirectory.com

    Sling for Ruger 10/22

    My local gun club has a fairly casual monthly CWP match where most shoot Ruger 10/22 or similar rifles. I recently picked up a Ruger 10/22 myself and need an appropriate sling. I was looking at the Turner Saddlery AWS sling, but am unsure if it would be a good match for the fairly light Ruger...

    Concealed Carry in Boats

    I have a SC CWP. I think I can legally carry while in a boat in state waters, not so sure about federal, and no idea about international. That's not really my question though. Since I get in the water and obviously can't take the weapon swimming with me, I don't know where I'm allowed to put...

    Restrictions on Guns in Vehicles while Travelling

    I generally understand the restrictions certain states have on carrying concealed weapons in a vehicle if a person doesn't have a CWP, or if a person is alone in a vehicle and does have a CWP. But after reading info on packing.org I'm a little uncertain how to interpret the laws if someone does...

    Easy $10 target stand with pics

    I made six of those stands and love them. I also bought a large, cheap duffel bag from Wal-Mart to store and transport them in, and it works very well. Cost on those was <$10 each.

    Where to Buy Targets?

    Perhaps this question has been asked and answered before, but I couldn't find it. If so, please point me to the thread. What are some good online sources for targets? I'm interested in paper silhouette, cardboard IPSC, and cardboard IDPA targets. My local gun shops and shooting ranges...

    What did you NOT like about your Concealed Carry class?

    What did I not like? The room... :-) Nope, I'm not kidding. It was a shrine to Elvis. I was so amazed I had to snap a photo.
