I let others shoot my guns. Some new shooters who are friends, some old shooters who are friends (they return the favor), and even a few I meet at the range. I shoot at a private club. I watch them with guns, to see if they seem knowledgable and safe . If they have an interest in one of...

What security concerns exactly? I mean someone has a serial number of a firearm, they report it stolen, then all of a sudden you are a criminal? I mean if this was to happen, the firearm could be traced from the FFL holder to you (if you were the first person to buy it). Or you may...

No, I think one 38 Special factory load does make power factor. A few years ago I bought a bunch of 38 Special factory loads. Spent the day chronoing. S&B 158 grain LRN was making the PF. At 158 grains I needed 791 fps. It ranged from 816 to 929 fps over 18 rounds. I have not...

Look up Army Regulation 190 -11 dated 2006 I believe. The big Army requires all privately owned weapons residing on an installation to be registered with the Director of Emergency Service (combine Provost Marshal with fire dept and you get a new directorate). Some installations expand...

The news I have been watching leads me to believe the only part of the economy booming is weapons and ammo sales.:D I would hope that before legislation was passed that cut shut down (or seriously curtailed) any industry in the US some one would bring up the economic impacts. Of course...

I always attend this show if I am here, but then again I live 20 minutes away and usually stop by after the IDPA match in Temple. In the past the shows at the expo center were pretty good. No screaming good deals, but I am choosey on what I call a "good" deal. Just because I would pay it does...

For the US Army privately owned weapons rules will vary for each post. In general, AR 190-15 or 16 (I think, the physical security reg) will require weapons registartion for weapons stored on post. Any other rule is up to the installation/mission commander. No, the rules do not change...

It never bothered me here when the guy at Academy walked me up to the counter with a firearm, it meant I did not have to wait in line. First time it happened I found it funny. I used my concealed handgun license as ID to avoid the call in, so he fills out the paperwork, and smiles, telling...

When I read the OP I was appalled, being a Texan and all. This story is so wrong it makes my blood boil and all gun owners look crazy. Everyone knows if in your house and two people are breaking in reach for a shoulder fired weapon (AR or shotgun, your call). Who would ever use just a...

In 2004 the Iraqi national guard (which later was renamed the Iarqi army) was being issued Walhter P99. Must be nice when you are not paying the bill. I know this becasue I was working as a LNO with the Iraqi Police (before all these transition teams became the new word). An Iraqi NG...

Crusier ready here. Mag tube full (5 rds). Safety off. To me it just seems the most natural. I will admit every few months, unload , functions check, and reload.

Oh my, I did not know I was gonna shoot myself :what: Maybe I should just get rid of them all...

I have to say, I think with parental consent and a certified instructor I think a minor could do about anything.

The OP's point (I thought anyway) was that it was a bad idea for HS to have Lon H give endorsments. Now regardless of your opinions on Lon H or what he did I think most people would it agree it is in bad idea to make such a controversional figure (where there is a great deal of emotion)...

Okay, thanks good advice. I am glad I have tomorrow off.

Bought a cnetury AR-15. Took it to the range and had no problems, groups well. I was home a few days after the range and noticed the gas tube is bent and the bolt will not go forward. The bolt carrier is striking the gas tube. Looking at the gas tube it is clearly bent. I see I can...

That's starnge, I would assume these would be some type of GS/SES jobs. I assumed they already had a very detailed and thourgh hiring process for these types of jobs already. Never recall seeing these questions for a GS job. It is certainly not the form/computer program used for security...

They are issued mags for the US Army, for the m9. Many of them are crap, but, I have been issued some brand new ones, took care of them and they worked fine. Not my first choice, I would stick with Beretta or Mec Gar. But if they are the only ones you could get, take care of them and...

Yes big beretta fan. Of the three you mentioned, M9, M9A1, and 92FS it depends what you want. If you want a rail, well choice is simple, M9A1. The differences between the M9 and 92 FS are minimal, go for thye better price. To me the biggest difference is the sights. The M9 has a dot...

I do not know how to train it out of you. I would say your mind is your primary weapon. Think first, so you can avoid what you can. If it can not be avoided, well, fight to win, period. Someone is going to throw a blow, okay, maybe it could not be avoided, game on. Someone in your...
