Awhile back (when they first came out), I purchased a full sized XDm .40, and fell in love with the thing. I beefed it up a little by replacing the factory riveted trigger bar with a heavier solid one, and put a Springer Precision trigger kit in it that makes the trigger reset an absolute dream...

This summer, I went on a "float trip" where several friends and I rode inner tubes down a local river. (More like a glorified creek.) As I am always armed, I wondered: "How do I remain viably armed if my firearm is constantly submerged in water?" I was concerned about water damage to the...

I searched, but couldn't find anything here about the FN SLP tri-rail http://www.fnhusa.com/le/products/firearms/model.asp?mid=FNM0143&cid=FNC02&gid=FNG016&fid=FNF052 advertised on the FN site. I've done web searches, and have only come across several mentions that you cannot get these...

It looks like a credit card bill allowing National Park carry in it (the Coburn Amendment) is now on its way to the President's desk. http://gunowners.org/a052009.htm Do you think he'll sign it?

In another thread about the cost of shooting, another poster was looking for "lead free" ammo in order not to harm the environment. Since the thread was about cost, I didn't want to hijack. My main problem was the "lead free" part. He stated he wanted to use lead free ammo "for the obvious...

I cast 200 gr. SWC .45 ACP's and pan or "tumble" lube with Lee Liquid Alox bullet lube. After drying, the bullets are completely coated with a nice waxlike candy shell. After I load them, this nice candy coating is all over the nose of my bullets. What's the best method of getting this...

In another thread, the discussion was about firearm related commercials. I didn't want to hijack the thread, but I have a question about the opposite. Instead of firearm companies that advertise on mainstream channels, I always pay attention to NON-firearm companies that advertise during gun...

The poll discussed here is in regards to actual pending legislation. http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=442114 Please help CCW in Missouri!

I searched, but couldn't find anything to answer a question I have. I've been reloading for awhile, but have mainly purchased jacketed bullets. In .45 ACP, jacketed bullets come in .451. This is what I have always loaded. Several months ago, I purchased a box of lead flat points to load for...

As a preface: I bought some Buffalo Bore .45 LC 325gr. LFN when I bought my Ruger Vaquero (old model) the other day. When I got home, I noticed I had purchased +P loads. After checking the safety of shooting +P in my Vaquero, I did so only to find that IT REALLY HURTS MY HAND. So I went back...

I picked up a nice Ruger Vaquero the other day. It doesn't function too well without ammo, so I looked on the shelf before I left the shop and found that they only had two boxes of .45 LC left. So I grabbed 'em. Well, now that I'm home, I'm looking at what exactly I grabbed hold of. (I...

Where's the post? Man, those are some quick vultures. They even snatch up posts about brass before you can read them.

Just bought a used SKS and made the circuit of the local gun stores for ammo. 7.62 X 39 is scarce, but Cabela's and a local shop Gateway Outfitters had just received shipments of .223. "Shipments" as in "a truckload". An entire aisle full at Gateway, a complete endcap at Cabela's...

In another thread, http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=424682there's a photo of a homemade shooting rest which is pretty slick. But, the shooting rest didn't catch my eye as much as the homemade shooting roll wrapped in duct tape. I have made one almost identical to it. I wonder...

Many gun owners are polarized on this topic. In another thread, someone selling a firarm was castigated for stating "No sales to CA residents". How do you feel about sellers that refuse to sell to California residents? I personally believe that "people deserve the government they live...

I'm a big fan of letting my money speak for me, so I try to support firearm friendly companies by purchasing their products. Likewise, I also try to avoid unnessesarily spending money on products produced by anti-2A establishments. From an investment perspective, can anyone reccommend any...

Paul Helmke and the Colbert Report I have just received notification that Paul Helmke will appear on a Segment of The Colbert Report labeled "Better Know a Lobbyist". Does anyone have an idea of what to expect? I have never seen the Colbert Report because it seems like something that would...

I am a huge proponent of joining the Brady Campaign's mailing list. (Know thy enemy!) I always receive updates and information about the latest crap they are trying to pull. My latest notification that I received from them was that they would be on the capitol steps after yesterday's...

Here's another poll we're currently losing. news-gazette.com Lower center of the page.

I have always thought threads urging me to "vote in this poll" were kind of pointless, but after considering the subject, I have changed my mind. I now believe that voting in these things is one small thing I can do to help promote a pro-gun agenda. Let one of these polls result in a higher...
