I live in an older neighborhood...a mile from an active-duty navy base and a mile from 'downtown' in the other direction. 'Hood' was built/developed immediately post-WW2, i.e. 1k-2k square feet single-family residences, mostly owned, but some rented, and more rented with every passing day...

The 2nd's language... With regard to the 50 individual states' constitutions, pardon me for not linking to them, for packing dot org is down at the moment. Anyway, among the 50, there are three or four which, in the 'money shot', don't use the word(s) shall not be infringed, but rather, dig...

Thanks all for your considerable consideration of my conundrum. I knew this collective would have several viable answers. Halfacop, the beauty of yours lies in its simplicity, i.e. let the screw pierce the carpet weave. We were able to deduce the location of the joists below the 3/4" plywood...

I am attaching a safe to the floor with the two 'bolts' supplied by the safe manufacturer. They're basically huge 'wood' screws with hex heads. My problem is twofold: 1) The safe sits on new carpet in a corner with baseboards and SWMBO insists that the carpet will not be lifted, and...

Spelling AND punctuation are your friends. Yes, it was a legitimate blog site and there was nothing "patrolling" or "mall ninja" about it. I like chocolate milk too, especially when it's at the bottom of a bowl of vanilla ice cream and Hershey's syrup.

Three of four months ago I found a blog by a friendly who wrote eloquently yet succinctly about the tremendous responsibility he totes with regard to his concealed carry permit and sidearm. Just fishing here...since this is one of the busiest forums, I'm guessing I found a link to it here. All...

The last gun I bought was a (used) Ithica Model 37 in 16ga. I'm left-eye dominant so I get wood at the range holding trigger and cycling by pumping. For most folks 'you'd have to be there' but some a youse know exactly what I mean. Not the only scenario I practice, but for zombies...

1. Know your subject matter. Be affable yet mostly quiet, speak when spoken to, and look the peeps in the eye whilst giving your answers in an honest manner. No fidget, no fiddle, no fear. If you belong, believe it more than any other thing and then they will too. 2. Dress well. Go to a...

The M85 was the fifty caliber machine gun mounted in the commander's cupola (little turret on the big turret) on the M60A1 main battle tank. On a live fire range I saw a (?20? pound) barrel fly beyond the front fender when a round was fired through it. I still don't think he realizes how lucky...

to Taliv "wheel on the backstrap" (sic)...That's definitely outside the box, sir. Ok, so 1) when you say "backstrap", do I assume correctly that you're thinking of a semi-auto? 1a) If so, where's our safety? 1b) It wouldn't/shouldn't spin as freely as our 'mouse' wheel, (of...

You know, as amazing an implement as the index finger is, it just isn't the 'perfect' appendage with which to pull a common trigger. Apologies to those whose possess such appendages slash fingers. Apologies also to those who design triggers. I'm thinking aloud about handgun design, in...

I'm wondering if one can carry in a Mississippi casino. The Mississippi page at packing dot org doesn't specify. I do a day trip once a month or so and have never seen any signage (re: firearms) on or near doors, hotel desk, or anywhere else, nor any mention in literature or ads. Mississippi...

Hiyas. I carry in Florida. Usually, it's an SP101, .357, 2.25" barrel, inside the waist band, in a synthetic holster with a steel clip attached to a 1.25" sturdy belt. Problem is, I much prefer the one- or two-o'clock position, but if I were to sit, it would be pointing at my DIK. Therefore...
