    Unloaded handgun magazines in checked luggage - as far as the TSA is concerned

    Unloaded magazines - I don't really see them mentioned in the TSA regs so it occurs to me they're just a piece of plastic or metal and require no special handling. Am I missing anything?

    Korean M1 Garand and M1 Carbine

    Couple questions 1, Why did Blue Sky stop importing them? Rumor has it someone in the gov got pissy about selling property that had been loan / leased from .gov to .korea. This sounds somewhat reasonable to me but since it came off the interwebnet could well be bull. 2. If point 1 is true...

    PVC Turning Target

    The NRA Law Enforcement shows building this - has anyone ever done it? Seems like it should work - gravity being a law not just a good idea. Seems the target will move down turn to the shooter then turn away. I have no idea how long the target is exposed. Granted there will be a lot of...

    can't get the filler screw all the way in ...

    I bought a batch of 6-48 threaded to fill the scope mount holes on the Savage Mk I rifles at Ingersoll Scout Reservation. Some went in slick as you please, but many took more effort and some would only go half way. Bother …. Is it possible the holes weren’t threaded all the way to the...

    As I understand handicap team trap

    A round is 50 birds – the first 25 from the 16 yard line. The teams combined score is calculated and checked against a table. The team then moves to the yard line indicated on the table and shoots another 25 rounds each. Final score is a total of both ‘turns’ shooting. 1. Am I more or...

    What do folks know about LittleSkeeters?

    I do shooting sports ‘stuff’ with a local Boy Scout camp. I’m more of a rifle guy rather than a shotgun gun guy. From time to time we have smaller scouts that our 20 ga shotguns (rem 870 youth) kick pretty good. We hate to see these guys not able to shoot with their troops. We’ve talked...

    What am I missing in this 'training'? 'drills'?

    I do IL CCW training – more for fun than anything else. I’m blessed to have rural property with a safe range so my classes draw from holster and do quite a lot of shooting. It’s nothing fancy just a place outside with 30’ tall hill and lots on nothing behind it. Now that folks in IL have...
