    Gun safe for $50-75?

    +1 on the auction safes, just make sure that you get the combo or it will cost you to get a locksmith to re-combo it. I have picked up 3 safes from auctions and one of them is about 4ft by 4ft square (not big enough for a long gun but plenty big enough for various pistols). If I can remember...

    What caliber for shooting fish in a barrel ?

    It depends on how far away from the barrel you are (well duh) :what: close in = 12 gauge/minigun etc. up to a mile away=50 bmg over that = air to ground missile (note that artillery strikes can also be effective) Course then again this is not taking the size of the fish into...

    Concealed Carry Essay: Rebuttal from Teacher

    While I agree that there does not seem to be a professional student/professor relationship here I have also had experience in this. I failed English Comp 1 in college because the prof disagreed with my take on a subject (it happened so long ago that I don't even remember the subject). The...

    Open carry..part of the problem is Police actually responding...

    ,<quote>The other situation can be even more sticky. Suppose you are minding your own business, walking down the public street, carrying openly, and some idiot yells "He's got a gun!" People start running, maybe fall down, get hurt, panic ensues, maybe even someone runs infront of a speeding...

    Legalities of a truck gun in Tennessee

    "shall not be infringed" yet you have to get a permit (and thus go through a lot of gov't red tape) in order to be able to do it. Since there is a permit it stands to reason that there will be people who are rejected (and thus unable to carry), It would seem that they are being infringed against.

    Open carry..part of the problem is Police actually responding...

    (coloradokevin) Additionally, the area where I work is one of the highest crime areas in our region. ... At the very least, I think it is not inappropriate for an officer to drive by and check on the situation. Again, where would the liability fall if a shooting DID occur, and we had refused...

    Run in at Wal-Mart

    While I agree that you may get questions and what not for oc'ing I do believe that this is simply because others are not aware of the law. By OC you are helping to educate them. One of the reasons it is scary to the sheep is simply that it is not "normal" for them to see a non-officer...

    Ultrasonic cleaning question

    Got me. You are right you either suspend the pistol using a wire or what I did was get a steel rod (smaller than the barrel) and simply inserted it into the barrel (with rubber washers at each end of the barrel to keep the rod from touching the barrel). I actually made a electrolysis cleaner...

    Concealed Carry on Campus

    I know what kinds of stupid things I did while in college and under the influence of tap-a-keg-a-day! Not a good idea to mix the two. Just because you did the keg-a-day dance does not mean that everyone does. While I agree regarding firearms/booze there are already laws on the books that...

    Concealed Carry on Campus

    I agree with divemedic. I am 30 years old, law abiding, and if you believe in statistics there are a lot more "non-traditional" students around. Why do you want to disarm me?

    Should LEO's Have A Passing Familiarity With Laws?

    The problem I have is that I am told (as a non-leo) that I need to have an understanding of the law (ignorance of the law is no excuse). However someone who has the job of enforcing said laws can use ignorance of the law as an excuse. Of course I am also one of the weird people that have...

    You thought ammo is expensive now?

    Another issue is that the debt was made with Tampa, Tampa was dissolved as a city and reconstituted later. So the question is: Is this Tampa responsible for the debt's of the former city of Tampa? I doubt it but it does make a good story.

    Man shoots motorcyclist in "self defense"

    Well said ASM826. Bottom line is we do not know what happened. There is the possibility that this was a justified shoot. If someone attempts to hit me with a vehicle (car, motercycle whatever) they do pose a threat to my life. Thus I would be justified in defending myself by whatever...

    Why University Cops & Administrators Don't Want CC on Campus

    I am not sure that you can consider the e-mail and text a valid attempt to contact the student body. According to several statements the campus admitted to making the e-mail vague in order to not let anyone really know what was going on. The text message was sent out minutes before it...

    Why University Cops & Administrators Don't Want CC on Campus

    Talk about sweeping generalizations. At best we have proven that this particular class did not have anyone step up. Not being there I have no idea if there was an opening to do anything or not. I do know that the PD is very lucky that this did not go another way. As a college student...

    Why University Cops & Administrators Don't Want CC on Campus

    WOW. Thats really all I can say. WOW. This "drill" was wrong on so many levels. Some people are taught to take action (instead of wringing their hands), if there had been some of those types of people in the class there would have been a lot of problems. I don't care if this was a...

    Delayed after NICS check

    Same in Arkansas. CCW bypasses the call but you still have to fill out the paperwork.
