Being someone who earned my living as a chemist some years ago this got me thinking . I know of no way to limit shelf life of the powder or primer ( really the only components that could be altered ) that would be reliable enough to give a time limit . To you lawyers out there , would it be...

Oh heck !!! My son is moving to Chicago ( from the U.K. ) next year , he was going to get some firearms for me to use when I visit . On a previous post you all gave some advice on how to apply for a FOID ,I just wonder if they can be applied for from the U.K. as I could not wait around for many...

isp2605 , when someone asks a question they are asking for the practical everyday experiences of responders ,if they wanted a legal opinion they would ask a lawyer . I know the situation in the U.K. and presented it . I am so anonymous that the poster could easily contact me by loking at my...

To answer your question , it is perfectly legal ,from the U.K. side , to send these items to Scotland ( where Cumnock is ) . They are not classed as firearm parts but as accessories . They are sold without problem by E-Bay here .

These are a great bunch of people , you will be right at home .:)

Many thanks for this info. I will follow up on all of the advice and links . The Chicago laws sound tougher than the ones that we have here in the U.K. and I thought that was impossible , guess I was wrong :)

My son's girlfriend lives in Bucktown , Chicago , can she buy and keep a shotgun in her appartment ? If so how ? I have trawled through the gun law web sites ,howevever the Chicago laws leave me puzzled . Please help .

Have converted a room in a gunroom , I feel that it's more secure to keep the gun safes and ammo lockers in one place under lock and key .

I keep approx. 700 - 1000 rounds of the calibers that I shoot , so that adds up to some 20,000 rounds metallic and 6,000 shotshells . Think that those quantities are about right .:)

It's got to be Winchester with 4 guns.

If you want the strict ethical answer rather than the emotional then according to philosphical ethics it is wrong to shoot . Under pragmatic ethics....drill the bum .

Hi , I am George Bush and I took Iraq single handed and now I'm going to do North Korea , Syria and Iran . Now where did I put my .45 .

Reading Guns & Ammo in a coffee shop and at next table four middle aged ladies chatting ,they looked over at me saying " thank heavens someones prepared , we know were to come when the s..t hits the fan ." . For the first time in awhile I was speechless , goes to show you can never judge a book...

Hoppes # 9 Just got back from the range , cleaned my rifles , stink of Hoppes....heaven!!!!!!

Fiocchi .22 ammo I have used this ammo extensively in revolver and non-auto rifles , being European ammo it is only going at 1100fps. not enough to cycle autos , which require about 1300fps . I had not noticed it to be dirty though .

How long does ammo stay good for ? I am still useing .303 ammo from 1952 , .38spl., 9mm., 12ga. reloads from 1970 and they still shoot well . It all depends on the conditions that they were kept in , cool with low humidity is best .

American Firearms site Thanks Kelly J , what a great site . Virtualy everything one needs in reloading plus law enforcement and all the other links , it will keep this old Brit busy for quiet a while .:D .

Un-named guns. I bought , last week , a Russian side by side 12bore hammer shotgun , there was plenty of numbers on the thing but not a letter either english or cyrillic . I could only tell that it was Russian by the proof marks ,this one is a real mystery .:confused:

Most accurate powder After trying most of the U.S. and European powders the most accurate line of powders are those made by Vectan . They are easily metered , clean burning and give excellent groups on target , and somehow the recoil seems to be more polite .

Red dot sights I use an Aimpoint red dot sight on a 44mag. Winchester Trapper and lousey shot that I am , I can be right on the money . The Aimpoint is not the cheapest but it does the job ie. put the dot on the target and it's done .
