    Australian handgun confiscation -- Day 1

    Well, I've thought twice and decided there is no doubt about it. The Austrialians have lowered themselves below the lowest form of life. By their actions they have proven over and over that they have neither honor nor dignity. They have surrendered the right to control their own destiny to...

    Gun Shops VS Mattress Strores (mild rant)

    Hey Sturm: Did you work for sporting goods companies at one time? The point you're trying to make sounds just exactly like the guys who took over the last three sporting goods companies I worked for about 6-8 months before each of them went broke. Hey, if you hurry you might still be able to...

    What's the most overpriced firearm you've seen at a gunshow?

    A guy at the OGCA recently had a double barrel, sxs, bolt action rifle that he wanted $230,000. It was interesting, but he probably bought it in Europe for about $15,000. There is another guy from Portsmouth, Ohio who has a lot of "collector grade" pieces. Unfortunately, his prices are about...

    FFL mess

    You are correct. The law requires that the dealer receiving the weapon must send a signed copy to the sender, but the sender is not required to send a copy of his/her ffl to the receiver.

    Purchase delayed--why?

    Dear Invisible: Glad that I could be of help. However, in light of your comments about it being you first delay and concern about volumn, I think a couple of more words are in order. First, if you have purchased before and not been delayed, it could be for a couple of reasons. The most...

    Purchase delayed--why?

    Dear Folks: Eighteen months after the Instant Check began, the FBI invited a bunch of folks to Clarksburg, WVa. to see the operation, learn about how it worked or didn't work, and ask questions. I was one of the few who showed up. The system is really sevaral data bases linked together. At...

    The Demise of Local Shops

    Dear Folks: Thanks for your replies and thoughts about local gun shops. I've even thought about writing a book, "Great Gun Ships I Have Known" or something like that. The firearms business is unlike any other retail business. In fact, one large chain I worked for went broke soon after...

    The Demise of Local Shops

    I wish that I could explain the situation in a manner that you folks would believe and accept, but I've tried before and failed. I'll try one more time and maybe find some success. I've worked for both large sporting goods chains and small private shops, all but one of which have gone broke...
