As others have said, here in AZ, you're not legal to carry in a place that sells alcohol for consumption. As to whether you'd be prosecuted should you use your gun in such a place, I'd have to assume that you would be, but with that said, a lot would depend on the circumstances of your shooting...

OK, the wife asked me the other day what I'd like for Christmas. A couple of months ago I stumbled onto a 2 gun match, and many of the guys were using reddot optics on their AR platforms. So, I'm thinking of having her get me a reddot, but I don't know the first thing about them. So, with...

pcosmar... OK. You got me there. It doesn't "declare war". However, the short title is "Authorization for the Use of Military Force Against Iraq". I dunno how much stronger the language of a formal declaration of war might be, but this one is pretty unambiguous. This war has been different...

Titan6... Pardon me for jumping in, but the "Declaration of War" you're looking for is here. While I encourage you to read the whole thing, Section 3 has the language where Congress authorized the President to conduct a war in Iraq.

Noble... Just to play the Devil's Advocate here a minute, what would be your response to said firm's claim that nobody forced you to be on their gun-free [Gawd. I hate that term.] premises in the first place? Sue if you like, but it appears to me that you accepted their rules, without condition...

PatriotBrewer... Exactly. I'm not a lawyer, nor do I play one on the internet, and we all understand that laws can and do vary from state to state, but with that caveat... Assuming that a hotel posted a 30.06 sign or whatever the equivalent is in your state, and further assuming that you...

benEzra... I'm an airline pilot and I stay in a lot of hotels. A few years ago, I stayed at a hotel in Minneapolis that had a big sign on the door about "No Firearms". As I recall, this was right after MN had opened up their concealed carry (or something). I asked to speak to the manager as I...

If I may add one technique on stabilizing your sight picture... As others have mentioned, get some snap-caps to practice your trigger pull. However, put a dime on top of the slide as you practice. You ought to be able to make a smooth trigger pull all the way till the trigger hits the...

I'm an airline pilot, and we have passengers drop their phones/blackberries into the lavs more frequently than you might imagine. I dunno about the rest of you guys, but when I have to use a public throne, the last thing I want to do is to look around. I just do my thing and get out of there...

More photos of the Prandtl-Glauert singularity here.

As I understand it, some states will allow felons to petition to have their gun rights restored. This practice is sometimes used as a reason to not honor the CCWs from these "restoring" states.

Yes I do. I haven't had a problem with the solvents affecting the gloves (I use latex gloves from either Harbor Freight or Costco). Although the scent of Hoppes #9 seems manly enough for me, the wife (Surprisingly! :neener: ) doesn't think so. So I clean the guns on the back porch and wear...

I realize you said this was just something to think about, but I don't think I could take this shot. A loved one covering 80% of the bad guy, at night, and you're holding a shotgun. Sure, I might take off the left side of his head as you suggest, but with motion, poor lighting and other...

As I said earlier, it's been some time since I read the book, but IIRC, the questions about Koresh's relationships with the teenaged girls at Mt. Carmel had been previously looked into by the Texas state authorities with no charges filed. Related: Since when are charges of child endangerment...

I meant to, but got distracted from watching the show. From what I'm gathering from those here who did watch, I can't say I'd have learned much by watching. However, IMO, the best book on the topic of Waco is Kopel and Blackman's What's Wrong with Federal Law Enforcement, and How to Fix It. It...

I'm not sure I would have displayed my gun to the realtor, but I don't think it was as big a mistake as others here do. Mrs. Azlib is a realtor. She's a Type A personality and knows that she can lose her temper--therefore she's (wisely, IMO) chosen thus far not to carry. However, the recent...

I'm not wild about fanny-packs either, but a couple of months ago at an IDPA Back-up Gun match, a fella showed up with one of these. It is about the only fanny-pack I know that doesn't shout "YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT I'M CARRYING A GUN INSIDE THIS FANNY-PACK!" It's also a bit cheaper...

In preface, for the last five years or so, I've been carrying my Glock23 in a Predator SO2. It is comfortable, concealable and tuckable (although I never used it that way). Well, the front attachment clip finally cracked, and a couple of months after sending it in to Predator for their lifetime...

lance22... I sent my Predator SO2 back to them for warranty service in early June. After numerous letters, unanswered phone calls, a full voicemail box, and at last a disconnected phone, I'm left to conclude that Predator is out of business. The SO2 was a good holster, but I'm looking...

I believe I may have told this story before, but here goes anyway... A few years ago, my teenage son asked if we could make a trip to the range. He's always been more into rifle shooting (he really likes High Power), and I've been a practical pistol shooter, but when your teenage son would...
