Story time. About 30 years ago I picked up a little Forehand & Wadsworth .38 5-shot top break pocket gun. Shot it a little, then decided to take it completely apart and clean it. Problem was, I was very inexperienced with gun repair and couldn’t get it back together. Stuck it all in a baggie...

My grandfather’s birthday would have been a couple weeks ago. (He’d have looked great for 110!) He had some rifles and a shotgun which I inherited, and hope to pass on someday. But it got me thinking about when he stopped shooting. Did he know when he bought his last gun? Is it something that...

Hello gents and ladies, Had a question I wanted to throw out there and see if I was the only one. A few years back I stumbled on an old Winchester’92. It had just entered the books at my LGS and since I don’t really live in rifle or Western country, it seemed doomed to sit at the price they...

In the movie Gone in Sixty Seconds, Nicolas Cage had a 67 Shelby Mustang as his 'unicorn', that mythical creature that is elusive and hard to catch. Thinking about this got me wondering what your specific firearm 'unicorns' are, so to speak. The ones you may have owned in the past, lost for...

Let's have contest to see who can come up with a use for this... http://www.firearmstalk.com/entries/Double-Barrel-1911-is-Coming-to-America.html At the moment, I have nothing outside of two perps standing REALLY close to each other.

Hey All! Just wanted to update everyone on my book, White Flag of the Dead. The Kindle version is now available for a promotional price of $0.99. You get lots of gun action, serious zombie-stomping action, and an all-around good read for less than a buck! :eek: Thanks for looking and I...

Hey all, Just wanted to plug my new book series White Flag of the Dead. Its a story of a man and his infant son finding themselves in the middle of a virus-induced plague, trying to survive the apocalypse. Plenty of guns and mayhem for everyone! Good reviews on Amazon, in case anyone was...

I know firearm transfers across state lines require FFL's. But I am curious about intrastate transfers. If I buy a gun from a guy in Springfield, IL, and I live in Rockford, IL, can he just ship it to my door? I researched this a bit and have not found a law that says I can't, but just want...

My brother in law (FBI Special Agent), assigned me the task of finding someone to trade a Glock 27 for his Glock 22. I posted it here and on another forum, no takers. When I pulled the ads, I started to wonder about the legality of what I was doing. He lives in Wisconsin, I live in Illinois...

I need to attach the medallion back onto the wood grip of a Browning BDA 380. Which glue would you all recommend?

Oak Park Sportsman's Club in Plainfield, iL is having a themed shoot on Sunday. The theme is ZOMBIES! Complete with zombie targets and assorted stages. Headshots only, please. As a writer of zombie fiction and IDPA shooter, this gives me the chills just writing it.:p

Yes, there's guns. Just finished my book "White Flag of the Dead" available at Lulu.com for book purchase or download. Should be available on Amazon in a few weeks. Working on a second novel now. I made sure guns were a big part of the equation...

I was reading a book recently where the author described a double barreled shotgun in "30 odd 6" caliber. I let that one go, but drew the line when he talked about someone "slapping a new magazine in the .38" and it was a revolver. Part of me wonders if it was intentional to keep nuts like me...

Just as the title says. Have you ever been to your local toy store and there was a gun that you always looked at, always wondered why it wasn't selling, especially if it was a nice piece? And that gun waited until you came to your senses and bought it? In my local gun shop, there was a nice...

I had this idea a few nights ago (10 month old wouldn't sleep) when I was awake and it kind of took hold. It seems our elected officials no longer even try to maintain the pretense of representing the people who elected them. Too often, we wind of with choosing between the best of two evils...

Just looking for some clarification. With the creation of UN Ambassador as a cabinet position, doesn't this mean that Obama is looking to eliminate or guns through treaty, which supersedes the constitution? On a side note, isn,t the appointment of Hillary a violation of the constitution, Article...

Well, after shooting Cowboy for the better part of the last ten years, I decided to change directions and went to my second IDPA match. The first one was about 8 years ago. Anyway, it was a real great time and I learned quite a bit. I also learned about what I need to work on for my next shoot...

In Chicago, they recently shot and killed a large cougar that had been ranging in the neighborhoods. Officials say the cougars are coming in from the Dakotas and are following the railroad tracks and power lines. Seeing as there are power lines right behind my house, what caliber would you all...

Just had a thought ruminating in my head. If I went to a gun shop and told them I found a gun on the internet for X amount of dollars, shipped and transferred to me. If they can match that price I will order from them instead, today. (Assuming the gun is not in their store.) Would I be out...

Any help would be appreciated!
