    LCP II, Ruger's strange instruction

    Started with someone making a comment online about the LCP II on a YouTube video, it was a conversation about how you shouldn't carry the LCP II with a round in the chamber. I usually comment how carrying a firearm without a round chambered for personal defense is a terrible idea, and someone...

    Customize defensive firearms?

    My search skills seem to be lacking, I am sure this has been covered before but...how do you feel about customizing personal defense weapons? I am pretty far from a guy that worries too much about perception, but in this case I would not want anything functional changed on a gun I may have to...

    Who doesn't have an AR15?

    As the title states, with quality AR15s at around the $399 mark (and that doesn't even seem to be rock bottom yet) it got me thinking, is there anyone left that doesn't already have at least one? Cheers.

    Vortex Sparc

    I came across this deal in my email. I am in need of a basic red dot. Do you think I am going to come across a better deal than this? Anything to worry about with the Sparc? Only heard good things about Vortex, but I personally haven't owned any of their stuff. Shipping seems to be $8.50

    $399 for brand new Remington 1911 (Rebate)

    Just saw this deal pop up. $100 rebate on Remington 1911's. Thought I'd pass it along. An example of the deal. http://grabagun.com/rem-1911-45acp-5-7rd-blk-wlnt-2-mgs.html https://www.remington.com/sites/default/files/rebate/file/Live%20Ready_Handguns_Rebate.pdf Pretty sweet deal IMO.

    Rossi M92 - How bad/good are they really?

    I am tired of waiting on Marlin to start making .357/.38 level action models again. I have looked into the used route, but I am seeing the price creeping up for quality examples, and I would like to stick to around $600. The only rifles in that range in current production seem to be the Rossi...

    Best All Around Gun Company

    I know this is highly subjective, but if you had to pick one company to rule the roost, who would it be? I came to my decision based on several factors. They had to have a firearm available in every major category that was competitive with the competition, and I also used affordability in my...

    How are mom and pop gun shops still around?

    To preface this, I do try to support local small businesses but I won't do so at a detriment to my budget, it's one thing to pay a little more, but 30 or 40% more? No way. So my wife bought me a gift certificate at a little mom and pop gun shop I'd never heard of and I like checking out new...

    Savage 10 FCP-SR issues

    From what I understand, this is a pretty common issue, but I am having feeding problems from the proprietary magazine the rifle ships with. A friend of mine with the exact same rifle has the exact issue. About half the rounds in the ten round mag simply won't be caught by the bolt and stripped...

    Question about Indiana

    On another forum I am in a discussion and I am not sure of the answer. Someone from Indiana has a lifetime CCW permit. They say when they go to buy a gun that's all they show and they buy and walk out with the gun. Anyone know the process? Is that checked to make sure it's valid? He's...

    Does Marlin not make a .357 Lever Gun Anymore?

    Seems like a weird caliber to have absent from their lineup.

    Ruger Blackhawk 357 convertible

    I am not really a revolver guy, I sold a Colt 38 special a few years back, but for some reason I couldn't shake the itch of wanting a wheel gun in my collection. That itch also had me craving a single action, as I am a sucker for Westerns. So I opted for this. [/IMG] I figured the ability...

    Opinion Change - Safety Course Should Be Required

    So recently I started working at a big box retailer selling firearms. I used to be opposed to the idea of requiring people to pass a safety course before owning a firearm. Now, after being on this side of the counter and dealing with the general public, I have changed my opinion. I...

    Came across this scenario channel

    Active Self Protection The majority of these vids seem to come from Brazil, but he has a lot more as well. I am surprised this channel doesn't have more traction. Basically he breaks down attacks and self defense videos from around the world. He isn't right all the time, but there are...

    Nightstand Duty Dilemma

    I've had my trusty Springfield XD45 with a Streamlight TLR-1 for years. I've never really had another gun in my collection that I've considered taking that duty over. However I just ordered a CZ P-09. I am starting to think I'd rather have that by my side, considering its 20 round capacity...

    How many firearms do you own?

    I figure this site is full of enthusiasts, but I am also seeing a good amount of new people to the firearms world. Was just curious what the "average" amount of firearms the top tier owners have (top tier as in passionate enough about guns to join and contribute to a forum). I know a lot of...

    Need tips for owning land for shooting recreation

    Not sure where to put this/where to ask, so I figured I'd try here. I am honestly tired of punching holes in paper targets. Even if I drive 45 minutes I can get only to one range that has some steel targets but they are pistol only and they can be very busy and have long waits at times...

    Just ordered body armor. Overreacting?

    There is a lot going on right now in this country as we all can see. Anytime anywhere unrest can erupt. I don't live in a terrible neighborhood but my job is to protect my family, and I can't do that if I'm taken out of the fight. But then I thought, maybe I'm being too paranoid. Thoughts?

    The NRA

    So I finally took the plunge and joined the NRA. As I was mentioning it around I started to get a little flak even from the pro-2a crowd. On the surface they still seem to be the most prevalent protectors of second amendment rights.....has that changed?

    Supporting local gun shops

    About 9 out of 10 times I find myself buying online versus buying at my local gun stores. As much as I love supporting local businesses I cannot bring myself to spend the extra 20 or 30% more on a given item. If a gun is $600 on grabagun you can bet it is $800 locally. If I had a money...
