    Chicago commuter train detained, passengers searched by police with auto weapons...

    Loaded - illegal. Unloaded transport - permitted by state law. There may very well be some regulation on the part of Metra (the train operator) - but it is not published nor posted. On the contrary, they encourage people to "if you see something, say something" via posters and regular...

    Chicago commuter train detained, passengers searched by police with auto weapons...

    *** is this country coming to. I was almost on this train - but managed to catch the one just before it. The "good citizen" who called this in claimed they overheard another passenger say that they have a gun. So f'ing what?! In IL it is perfectly legal to have a gun, in one's enclosed and...

    EAA Witness forum and smithy info?

    Hi, I tinker with pistols and just got a Witness. I'd like to dig into more info on the FTF and FTE issues I've read about along with magazine info etc - not to mention accurizing, and other related things. Is there a forum dedicated to Witness users? Thanks in advance!

    Kriss Super V

    Shot about 300 rounds through one. Observations... 1) the design is for an off the hip auto shooter, shouldered with optical sighting the alignment sucks 2) the barrel sticks out like mad and looks stupid 3) for the money, an H&K USC converted to UMP SBR is the way to go. Much better aim...

    Glock 26 How Much?

    Laser grips on a glock? HUH? how? Are they just stretched over the frame? If so - don't bother. But if you want a laser, my 26 has the replacement guide rod laser. Highly recommend that route!

    New Sights

    Oh man oh man, I tried to move the XD9C sight 1MM, beat the crap out of it, almost broke my sight tool. Talk about a crappy experience! Eventually took a different sight tool to move it. Oddly enough it came from the factory 1mm off in the rear. If XD RUN away from doing it yourself.

    is this legal? (video)

    Manufacturing IS $200, transfer is $5, yes. HOWEVER, buy putting the grip on and changing classification - you are the manufacturer. So Pony up the $200, wait the certification period, stamp your name on slide - all assuming you are licensed by BATFE to be a manufacturer. (just had that...

    "Hand over the money or I will kill you!"

    It's actually very simple to explain, but difficult to prosecute either way... the jury will be asked "what would a prudent person do in this situation?" In other words... BG is 4'5" and armed with a browning banana - you shoot, they'll fry your ass. BG is about your size, has a knife, is...

    OC in the Chicago Area?

    Yea sure you can OC in Naperville - I live here. Just let me know when and where so I can get the whole PD crashing down on you on tape! I'm sure everyone here would get a good chuckle out of that! Seriously, I get nervous going to the range, in cases, in my trunk. Damn this state.

    Now technically that is not a rifle round... wonder if my indoor range will allow it? :D

    thoughts on Kimber

    These are some of the most accurate and fantastic guns ever - and I personally am not a 1911 fan. The only issues I've seen is if they are over oiled or excessively dirty (like 1000 rounds no cleaning).

    LLC or INC paperwork for starting FFL

    MAKster... (and others for posterity reasons) The FFL can be filed on behalf of the corporation or LLC. If that is the case, all managing partners, officers of the corporation or managing members (depending on the organization) must pass legal requirements as if they were individuals. The form...

    Why your gun should be fully loaded

    Maybe the dog should charge the walker with a brandishing complaint!

    Tips for wife to shoot without twitching in anticipation of recoil

    I think this is what grumpy meant by ball and dummy... I found I had a very small pre-shot flinch. Almost imperceptible (1-2" off center at 15' down and left)... On a suggestion from a competition instructor, had a buddy load up my magazines. Some bullets in, a snap cap, some more bullets...

    Rumor of Ammo serialization bill...

    Whenever you write these people we elected mention this: What good is serialized ammunition, when I spray about 300 rounds of it (weekly/bi weekly/monthly) at my local range. Anyone wishing to commit a crime needs to only go "practice" for an hour, grab my casings and drop them at the scene of...
