    ATF F 5330.20 if you're not a US citizen?

    In regards to the ATF F 5330.20 form, is it possible to get a C&R if you're not a US citizen? If you aren't, how exactly would you proceed--or are you basically out of luck?

    Remington 870 MCS--available to civilians?

    Somebody on another forum I frequent was wondering if it was even remotely possible to get the 870 MCS in the 18" configuration. I've searched the forums here and found virtually no mention of it, so I figured I'd ask.

    1911 Slide Stop Drops Too Easily

    I'm looking at this Colt Series 70 right now that has a bit of a problem--with the slide locked back, I inserted a full mag and slapped it in (not even hard). This will cause the slide stop to disengage and the gun will chamber a round. This will also happen with no mag inserted. Is there...

    870 bearing plate and Speedfeed

    Just picked up a new Speedfeed III stock and foreend for my 870 Police Magnum to replace the walnut ones on there currently. When trying to put it on, though, I noticed that it was pretty far from a flush fit. If I pull out the bearing plate, it fits just about right--would take just a little...

    1911 and AR sprucing-up

    (Nobody seems to be reading Gunsmithing and Repairs, and I kind of want a quick answer, so I'm crossposting this here.) I started browsing around on Brownell's to get a standard GI stubby guide rod and plug, and then, as per usual when I start ordering stuff online, I start going hog-wild...

    1911 and AR sprucing-up

    I started browsing around on Brownell's to get a standard GI stubby guide rod and plug, and then, as per usual when I start ordering stuff online, I start going hog-wild. Basically, I'm looking to improve on this 1911 of mine, and then I started wondering if I should get anything for the new...

    Sniper antenna

    Go ahead, any of you want to point this out of a window to get a signal? Maybe you'll even get lucky and nobody will try and shoot back. "A friend of mine from the Shmoo hacker group told me about this amazing DefCon stunt back in June and swore me to secrecy, and it's been one of the...

    Phoenix Crossroads Gun Show

    Anybody going to this tomorrow or on Sunday? Selling anything interesting? Looking to buy something fun? I'm still thinking about buying a FAL/some kind of combat rifle, or maybe a shotgun, but I'm not really that knowledgeable when it comes to long guns, so I hope I don't get screwed if I...

    Texas statistic citation needed

    I'm in an argument with someone and I pointed out that Texas CHL holders commit violent crimes less than the police--at either 2/3rds or 1/3rd the rate, can't exactly recall. Searched through the forum, can't seem to find a citation for this. Can someone please provide it?

    Israel rocks.

    IDF soldier taking his AR to a gay pride parade. Gay Jews walking around in pink and white chiffon tutus with assault rifles. Tell me where else in the Middle East you're going to see that.

    FAL/AWB price drop?

    I've been thinking about picking up one of those DSA SA-58 FALs for a bit now... was wondering if the price on those fine pieces of machinery might be dropping with the expiration of the AWB like the prices on ARs are probably going to drop? And, if not, it'll at least let me put a different...

    Elephant and Zero Day

    Just finished watching this movie a bit ago, and I actually know a guy who was one of the extras in it--you can see him on the back cover of the DVD box. Dude with the guitar. I don't know how many of you have seen "Zero Day"--which I caught myself a while back--but that movie was ever so...

    California/Arizona trip law questions

    Well, a friend of mine is driving to Blythe, California tomorrow, and then immediately back to Arizona to perform a little tax jiggery-pokery with a car, and she's recruited me at the last minute to ride along and safeguard her on this trip. Needless to say, I'm going to be strapping on my...

    Fry's Electronics SureFire Battery Hilarity

    So I was strolling around in the Tempe Fry's Electronics, which I now frequent because a while back they took down their "no weapons" sign. I'm going with my brother, who's looking for some thermal paste and other computer components, and I decide to check to see if they have any SureFires...

    AWB pistol idiocy/question

    So, as we all know, our much-loved Assault Weapons Ban limits pistols based upon whether or not they have three or more of the following: ability to accept a detachable magazine (because detachable mags are evil) magazine that attaches outside of the pistol grip a threaded barrel that can...

    Gun for Easter

    So, for Easter I received a new piece. Now, I normally don't care much for polymer and plastic--I just prefer the heft of a steel frame, but I wouldn't say no to one, and I've thought about getting a USP--but I can definitely attest to the light weight here. You could easily carry this sucker...

    "Dianne Feinstein is an Idiot" t-shirts

    There's some profanity in the descriptions, so these might not be entirely work-safe: EDITED BY PREACHERMAN TO ADD: Sorry, Treylis, but those were a bit "near the knuckle" for THR.

    "A holster says 'premeditation' to a jury"

    "I rarely use a holster, I carry a 10mm Delta Elite inside my pants just behind my right hip, tilted forward, butt to the rear, cocked and locked...or my 1911...or my Ruger P-85...sometimes I pack in the small of my back, butt to the right. A holster says 'premeditation' to a jury, and if you...
