So I've decided to buy a Hi-point 9mm for the car rather than leaving a gun worth a few $100 in it. That way if it gets stolen I'm only out about $150, and if I ever have to use it and it gets confiscated I won't really care. In addition to the handgun, I'd love to toss the 9mm carbine in...

So I'm heading out to Alaska for a few months, and while I'll be working, I'm planning on doing a fair share of hiking/mountain climbing (not hunting). If anyone has experience in the area I'd love to hear your thoughts on what type of gun I should bring. I have heard a variety of thoughts...

Come May I'll be moving to Alaska for several months, and have plans to take advantage of the 22 hours of sunlight and do a fair amount of hiking/fishing etc. Problem is in the event of interrupting a brown bear I need a bigger sidearm (.44) than anything I currently own, and as always funds...

So most of my shooting life has been spent peering down iron sights, however now that my eyes have started to go I figured I'd better jump into a few optics. Sadly, the only optics I have ever purchased have been for .22 plinkers, and I am hopelessly lost in the world of scopes. I am...

So. I have a handful of handguns that I like, but a few of them have triggers that aren't "just right" for me. I have never paid to have anyone gunsmith any of my guns, and therefore I have no idea what a trigger job should cost. Any estimates of what I should be paying?

So, I've been reading Guns and Ammo for a few years now along with various other magazines that I pick up at the gun shop from time to time. Lately I've been getting fairly depressed with the quality of these magazines, including dear old G&A. It seems that all of these mags are merely a...

I just shot an armadillo with my .45 using Federal hydroshocks with at least 4 clean hits and possibly a 5th graze. It managed to run away and escape my German Shepherd. *** .45, aren't you supposed to drop a horse?

Well, I am single again after a decade. During that time I began CCW, now that I am single it has caused some minor/frustrating problems with new people. How do you handle letting a recently met person discover your firearm? I usually carry in a Smartcarry, so it isn't easily removed/hidden...

Alright so here it is: I often CCW and after work I like to stop off at the pub and catch a quick drink. When I do, I take the gun off and put it in the glove box and don't retrieve it until I am home. I never get "drunk" I usually have one to two beers and BS with the boys. The question...

I met a fellow shooter at the range the other day who offered to sell me his M15. Anyone have any thoughts about this gun? I have been saving for a year or so for a new M1A1 to add a .308 to the collection. Would the much cheaper M15 be worth it?

So here goes, I have been toying with the idea of getting some Martial Arts training for years now, and have stumbled across a school that I think might be right for me. Problem is, I have heard an awful lot about schools that are all flash and no substance. I have yet to attend a class or...

So both of my jobs have a "no weapons" policy. One of them is a restaurant, the other requires work on power plants. My question is, is it illegal to CCW at either of these places? Or am I only risking a firing?

Can't wait for my own set! I just want to know how they got that rubber band around the trigger guard.

Why are they always sold in packages of 5+ do they wear out quickly? Should I discard my Snap Cap after a few hundred dry fires?

Lord knows there are more than enough of these polls around, but I could still use the help. I've been looking to replace my current carry and have decided to drop down from a .45 to a 9mm for a number of personal reasons (please don't try to sway me). I have shot the XD(m) in .40 and found...

Do the police ever re-sell Buy Back or seized guns? Is there anyplace short of gun shows and consignment gun stores (not counting pawn shops) to buy used cheap guns?

So, my old lady got on me about one or the other being the better man. I argued and we decided the community would be a better judge than either of us. Who would win in any sort of battle. Good old Wayne, or uppity Eastwood?

In May I was given The Back-Up as a present. The website claims that it keeps the gun closer to hand and is easier to access. This is true. However it also claims that it will not scratch or damage any part of the firearm, unfortunately this is not true. After having my gun rest on the...

Ok, so I have an XD .45 compact that I usually carry. Here are my thoughts on improving it: Crimson Trace Laser Grip: I found one online for close to $300 with shipping. Is this a decent price or can a better deal be found? I looked around for one, but didn't have much luck. Also...
