    Sunset Shooting

    That's great, sounds like a good time had by all. I actually live about ten minutes from the range. As Sarah progresses you may want to try Pocono Pistol range in East Stroudsburg. It only allows handguns and long guns in pistol caliber. They have a larger selection of handguns for rent in...

    .308 For Home Defense?

    I agree with the fact there are many pros to choosing a rifle over a shotgun as a home-defense long arm. However, I would choose a 5.56 chambered rifle over a .308. I would also seriously consider hearing protection being kept with the rifle or spending the money for a stamp and purchasing a...

    carry while walking the dog

    I always carry so walking the dogs is no different. Besides the local wildlife and human threats I have to protect my pitbulls from people who want to shoot them on site.

    AK-47 as a trail gun? bear gun?

    RE: trolling I know some guys who are not trolling boards who do truly believe the AR family to be unreliable. Granted they don't post two "classic" topics in one on there first post but maybe he is new to gun forums all together not just THR. RE: AK for bear gun If I was to keep rifles...

    My Custom Zombie AR

    I like the paint job a lot. I would set it up differently with respect to optics and foregrip/bipod but the overall theme is something I would own and I'm no fourteen year old.

    Does anyone in the NYPD get to have Non-Glock carry weapons?

    The above models are correct. As mentioned NYPD sets the triggers heavier than standard hence the Glock NY trigger springs. A friend carries the 226 DAO and I don't know the exact weight but it is is heavier than the DA pull on his personally purchased DA/SA 226.

    My Experience with the PA State Police Over Memorial Day Weekend.

    Great to hear the story. What barracks was he from? I live in Monroe County and have had a few interactions with the Swiftwater officers. I have heard others had issues with them but they have never been anything but professional with me. When I had just moved from Queens I got a flat on the...

    Can I keep my NYC long gun in a different town in New York

    You should have no issues. You could always check the City of Buffalo's website to make sure there is no crazy storage law. You could also have your girlfriend buy a shotgun in the same model as yours. No need for a permit and for her and when you return to the city it can be sold if she does...

    Century Arms

    I have shot lots of AK's, sure not as many as some here so take my opinion for what you paid for it. I have a converted Russian Saiga and CAI WASR 10/63. The WASR was purchased in early 2010 and had no issues with mag wobble or canted anything. I have heard the 10/63 is made from Romanian...

    Ar-15 as handy as a shotgun?

    I don't think rifle or shotgun matters much. They will both serve you well. Better served through training and then practicing what you learned. If the price of training and supplies means you get a shotgun in order to afford both then you are ahead of the game if you get an AR and it is...

    Home defense stories.

    I have only had to use a gun once in a self defense situation. Their was no shots fired and the presence of the shotgun made the guy run. It had just entered the summer when i was away at college. Me and a few others were moving myself and a female friend into an apartment we were renting for...

    Any New Yorkers out there?

    I never shot at a range in NYC so that may be why I never had a problem when shooting my brothers rifles. We shot at the Mitchell Complex by Nassau Coliseum and Calverton in Suffolk County. We routinely shot his AR, AK and M1A with 20 and 30 round magazines. Never a negative word was said...

    Any New Yorkers out there?

    I lived in Queens until 2008 when I moved to the Pocono Mountains. I went through the process for a shotgun and would go out East to Calverton Shooting range and shoot skeet all day long. My brother lives in Nassau County so he has a bunch of rifles, shotguns and handguns. It was enough to...

    8 ways the Media does not understand gun onwership

    The piece is a disgusting example of the loss of integrity within journalism. I also agree with the 8 points of the guns and ammo article. I find taking someone to the range for some fun always gets a smile and usually gets questions on how they can get a gun.

    Question I can not seem to find an answer to...?

    I have several fighting rifles with magazines and ammo just in case. However, given my relatively secluded house I figure I can grab an ammo can and magazines from the supplies and get ready. I always have a Glock 9mm and three magazines ready to go with a riot shotgun and a belt pack with...

    What is the most Lethal 380 ACP ammo on the market

    I go with WWB flat nose for my P3AT. As stated reliability is most important with accuracy after that. WWB has been completely reliable for my pistol and it is also my practice ammo. The FNFMJ gets plenty of penetration.

    A good AKM

    I have two AK's. One is a converted Saiga with a side mount and red dot. I also have a WASR 10/63. They both have been completely reliable and just as accurate to two hundred yards which is as far as I have to shoot them. The WASR took a few hours to polish it up, refinish the wood and...

    Do you own an AK-pattern rifle?

    I have a converted Saiga and a Romanian. The next AK I get will be a Draco SBR. I will probably get an AR before that and it would be my first.

    Rifle Self Defense Shootings

    The story below unfortunately ends with the homeowner arrested possibly because of the choice of using an AK. One reason I left NY for PA. http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2010/09/07/long-island-man-arrested-for-defending-home-with-ak-47/
