    AR Pistol

    If you take an AR pistol with, say, a 7.5" upper, remove that, and put a 16.5" buffer without changing the lower at all, then under federal law it's still a pistol. It's a pistol with a ridiculously long barrel, but still a pistol. Off the ATF website quoting federal code: The term “Pistol”...

    Has anyone ever open carried a rifle or shotgun in public?

    Yep, and fairly recently, too. I was carrying a Marlin levergun in .45-70 while hiking in the mountains outside of Boulder, CO, about three years ago during a time when there were quite a few mountain lion attacks on horses and other livestock in the area. We hiked right into Nederland, CO...

    lcr vs. lcp

    I have both a J-frame and a LCP, and they're different animals. I got the LCP as a jeans pocket gun. In a pocket holster, it vanishes with no bulge or printing at all even in fairly tight pants.

    Let's see some single actions!

    The manual for my conversion says "the firing of +p ammunition is not recommended beyond occasional use, and could void the warranty on components of the barrel, cylinder, and frame." The metal around the chamber looks as thick as a .38+P spec revolver my wife has, but the open top makes me...

    Let's see some single actions!

    I'll play! They're all in .45LC, for ease at the range and fun. Clockwise from top right: nickel-plated Beretta 5.5" barrel, Uberti Schofield replica, Bond Arms .45LC/.410 derringer, and Uberti Cattleman 3.5" with a birdhead grip. Edited for a Schofield glamor shot!
