    Man with concealed-carry permit kills robbery suspect in Cleveland

    What stinks is if the police ruled it justified, they should have given the guy his gun back, pronto. I'll bet he has to go through hoops to get it back. I hope he has a 2nd one in case someone else tries for retribution.

    Ruger Alaskan now in 44 mag??

    I saw the MSRP in the Ruger magazine. Gander Mt is just charging the full suggested price. I'd doubt any serious buyer will get one from them.

    Question for TTR8 owners and a comment about Revolvers vs Autos...

    Food for thought, but I'm happy with my revolvers. I've gone the semi auto route, and just don't care for them.

    Question for TTR8 owners and a comment about Revolvers vs Autos...

    150 years? A magazine for a handgun lasting 150 years? Now that I'd like to see. Now I can say the same thing about all of posts where people worry about getting into shootouts with several individuals and not having enough firepower. If any one individual ever gets into that type of...

    Question for TTR8 owners and a comment about Revolvers vs Autos...

    I've given this a lot of thought, and it seems to me if we're ever hit by a SHTF scenario (like Katrina in real life, or a longer term Jericho (CBS show)), that it would be better to have revolvers than semis. Eventually magazines on semis are going to have their springs wear out. In a nuke...

    S&W 686 owners... A question.

    I have read in the past that ammunition doesn't have the chance to expel it's gases, etc to its full potential in a revolver with less than a 4 inch barrel on it. If you're not going to carry it anyway, I'd agree the guy should throw in some cash for the wooden grips, then make the exchange.

    What's with the lock on Smith and Wessons?

    My only two weapons are both 4 inch, one a S&W686+ and a Ruger GP100. Both are great, Rugers are definitely not inferior to S&W's. GP100s in fact are probably the strongest .357's you can buy today. However, after info from the S&W site I did elect to have my lock removed. Maybe it will...

    Ruger Alaskan now in 44 mag??

    Man, the 44 Alaskan is expensive though! I saw one at Gander Mt and it was something like $860.

    Is it safe for us to carry right now?

    No one around here is in freak out mode. Just the opposite. Most of the conversations I've had have been "if teachers and students at VT had had their own guns this wouldn't have happened."

    Waddidyou get for Buy-A-Gun Day?

    I bought my 4 inch SW686+ on the 15th, not realizing it was buy a gun day.

    Questions about Ruger GP100?

    I called all over town today and couldn't find a new one for less than $499. However, I found a used stainless for $365, and the trigger has been smoothed out on it perfectly! It's darn near as smooth as a Smith trigger. It compliments by 686+ nicely.

    Ruger GP 100

    The prices on GP100s have really jumped here in my neck of the woods. I called around today and couldn't find a stainless new one for less than $499. However, I ran into a used stainless at my local shop today for $368 and picked it up. I'm glad I did, the trigger on it's been worked out and...

    640 And 442 Question

    I've not seen a 640 in my area for a long long time. I wouldn't mind getting one.

    a test to see if you have gun control

    I thought the fact that most of my shots hit the center portions of the target consistently would indicate fairly good control.....:confused:

    Ever Notice how These Shootings Happen in Gun-Free Zones?

    That occurred in one of Chuck Norris' movies. The one where he was a cop in Chicago. I think Chris Tucker or someone like that was one of the thugs who tried to hold up the bar where Norris and all his fellow cops hung out.

    I hate carrying a gun

    I don't hate carrying a gun, but I hate that the world has become a place where I feel the need to carry one. I think it's just population though. There has always been a steady percentage of the population that are criminals, molesters, etc, but the overall population has grown so fast...
