    Anyone Else Find This Sign Offensive?

    This was in Arizona last weekend. This is the second time I've seen this particular sign. I don't like seeing "No Firearms" on businesses but I can understand why a hoplophobe business owner might post one. But lumping legal gun carrying citizens in with illegal drug use is ridiculous. I...

    Private ranges in Phoenix, AZ area

    Are there any good private outdoor ranges in Phoenix? I did some searching and turned up the Phoenix Rod&Gun club, but even it is open to the public on weekends. I've come to prefer members only ranges. Everyone is a gun enthusiast, NRA member, and typically more safety concious, friendly...

    Tucson gun stores to visit?

    Hello Tucson shooters, I'll be in your city this Friday (8/10) for an interview with Raytheon Missile Systems. I may or may not have any free time (don't have the trip details yet), but if I do have some time, can you recommend any good gun stores to check out? Raytheon appears to be...

    Phoenix area Gun Shops

    I'm going to be in Phoenix on 4/27 for a job interview in Scottsdale. If my plane arrives on time, I should have about 4-5 hours of free time before the interview (planned it that way so I could look around the area). Are there any big/well-stocked gun shops around that would be worth checking...

    New Mexico Gun-Related Questions

    Folks, I'm investigating a possible job opportunity in Albuquerque, NM. Based on some initial research, it looks like a pretty gun-friendly state, on par with AZ and probably a tad better than TX (due to open carry). I have a few questions that I was hoping NM residents could help with. -...

    Percussion to flint conversion

    I've got a .50 T/C Hawken caplock and am wondering if it's possible to convert it to a flintlock? How would I go about it? Would I need a whole new barrel/lock assembly or could I just drop in a new lock? Thanks for any info.

    Jedediah STARR

    Are these guys reputable? I'm looking at purchasing a T/C Hawken and they have the best price I could find ($419). However, being an ML newbie, I'd like to get a thumbs-up from someone here before I order from them. Also, anywhere else I should check T/C prices? Thanks for any info! :)

    Midway won't ship BP Revolver to CA

    Went to order an Uberti 1858 Army from Midway and the website wouldn't let the order go through. It popped up a message saying "local, state or federal" law prohibits shipping this item to CA.:cuss: I'm thought BP guns in Cali are treated the same as in federal law (i.e. not considered a...

    Anyone bought a handgun in CA this year yet?

    I know it's only been 3 days, but was wondering if anyone has gone through the new license and testing process to buy a handgun? I'll be doing the paperwork on a S&W 360 on Monday. I think I know what to expect regarding the new laws, and I hope the FFL does as well.
