    Why should I buy a .44 Magnum Revolver?

    I convinced myself a few years back that I had to have a DA 44 revolver for field use and the such. I have yet to field it, and its way too big for carry. The only time I had it out this year is when visitors from a gun hostile state visited and we took it to the range. I won't trade or sell it...

    5.56 DMR type rifle

    I'm in the market for a AR to fill a similar role. My budget is a little less than yours, but if I had $1600 to spare, I wouldn't even buy a production SPR. If you aren't able to do assemble it yourself, get quality parts from reputable manufacturers and let some one else put it together...

    Apartment Complex - Tampa, Florida claims I have to have a gun permit to own a gun?

    In most cases, especially when it involves a managed property such as an apartment complex, a property owner and a renter enter into a contract when the tenant agrees to occupy the property. If it is in the lease that guns x y and z, then the tenant is bound to it. State law notwithstanding. If...

    Do you carry an "under-rated" concealed handgun?

    You did WHAT? OMG what sacrilege! Your hurting me Sir. Only if I could be so lucky as to trade with a man of your sympathies... :scrutiny: I have an old SS Rossi copy of a S&W M36 that has two screw frame, pinned barrel, and a hammer mounted firing pin. It's a Rossi alright but it's one of my...

    Do you keep a round in the chamber at all times?

    OK -- I see where your coming from now. In the case where the discussion is not your carry gun, the best thing would be to lock them up, or, if that's not possible, separate the gun from the ammo altogether if there's even the remote possibility that visitors to the house or in your car may...

    Does having a CCW automatically waive your right to consent for a search

    Thank heavens I don't have to inform, and double thanks that having a GFL (not a concealed license) doesn't automatically involve giving up what little protection from the 4th that's left.

    State law vs Company policy

    Divemedic, I've been wondering if you are the local divemedic but you can't be. Otherwise you would have certainly cited GA law in this thread. Georgia has code in their firearm law that makes it illegal for an employer to hire/fire on the basis of firearm carry if their parking facilities are...

    Do you keep a round in the chamber at all times?

    OP, if you aren't comfortable with having your tools at the ready, then how comfortable will you be if you are ever called to disfigure or kill another human being with them to preserve life? 545 days, I can assure you that FAR MORE people do not make it out as well as those in the anecdotal...

    Apartment Complex - Tampa, Florida claims I have to have a gun permit to own a gun?

    To me, the issue isn't the permissiveness of Florida law, but what private property owners have decided is allowable on their property. If you desire to visit a tenant on their property and you are in possession of a firearm, you must have a FL CWP. It's as simple as that. Similarly, I could...

    Carrying swords - is it legal?

    You can't carry one in GA, it is also classified as a deadly weapon. but I saw a teenager carrying a full length samural sword last weekend at Barnes & Noble in the middle of the city. I thought for a moment to tell him to go home before he's picked up and arrested for violating state law. Then...

    Do you carry a Backup Gun? If so, where?

    Yes, but only when its the time of year for outer wear. Hi capacity auto on belt, OWB strong side, spare mag weak side, and a j frame 38 in my RH pocket. One 38 speed strip in left outer pocket of coat/jacket. I use a Don Hume SOOT IWB for pocket revolver carry. Each bottom feeder has a...

    what to load my .357 with for home defense?

    Speer 135gr 38+p gold dots for the night stand gun. Which is actually the master bath gun for the missus. Mister has a high cap auto loader in 40 on his side of the bed. Too much noise, flash, and over-penetration potential with 357 mag rounds in the SD scenario for this urban dweller.

    Concealed carry in a US Post Office ??

    Dangerous weapons are prohibited in ANY post office, regardless of your state of residence. Off the top of my head, I believe that the applicable section in US Code is Ch 44, 18 Sec 930. Any leased or owned federal property is off limits to anyone that isn't federal law enforcement, except...

    They want your ammo - Voters should have paid attention.

    Reloading would be illegal. So would your rig and all your powders, bullets, and primers. In fact, all non-encoded ammo would have to be turned in for destruction at a certain future date. After that date, possession of non encoded ammo is a crime. Surreal, isn't it?

    They want your ammo - Voters should have paid attention.

    Some asshat just introduced this in Georgia. It won't even get a committee, much less make it out of one. For you guys in other states, I hope that you've taken the time to contact your legislator to let him/her know that you don't support the bill. If you think that other people will do it...

    Warning about shotguns for home defense

    I'm much more interested in hearing the exact details of how how your friend encountered this burglar. It will likely reveal a lot more noteworthy lessons than second guessing the choice of his weaponry. I'll also second the poster that says if he's close enough to grab then its been long time...

    Stocking up on ammo now?

    Not really stocking up as much as shoring up in a few areas, including ammo. Not pulling $$$ out of the bank or charging up 3k round orders or anything but I don't have my head in the sand either. Concerned a little about shortages in general, the impending winter season, and the public...

    Changing My Stance On Open Carry

    Every time I hear someone express their disapproval for OC this way I can't help but to wonder if it is what they secretly want. Georgia is an OC state, so you'd think there would be unity on this topic at our state forum, right? Nothing could be further from the truth. Needless to say I hear...

    Do you avoid going to countries that don't respect RKBA?

    I take very seriously the responsibility to provide for my family's personal safety. And yes, I am a very light sleeper. What snobs some on this board are. Some of us find importance in other pursuits than the number of countries in which we've lived or how highly cultured we perceive...
