This guy is taking an interesting approach... He's questioning federal authority to regulate rather then arguing the meaning behind constitutional verbiage. Anyone know more about this guy? Enjoy...

I'm looking to pick up a camo coated 12 gauge to use for wild turkey and waterfowl hunting. I'm considering the Mossberg 535 or 835, or the Remington 887. I can't stir up any used offers, so I've turned to the local pawn shops. Today I came across a gun that the clerk told me was a 24" bbl...

Below is a link to an article Ted Nugent wrote for the Washington Times. My question for discussion- How effective do you think this article is at promoting the RTKBA? http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/jan/11/be-prepared-for-evil/?page=1 This post was retrieved online from Google...

I'm thinking about getting in touch with my femine side :uhoh: jk jk I know there are some ladies in the THR ranks, and some guys with hot shot wives/gf's. If you are one this thread is a request for you to share your experience. My fiance is in need of a new purse because her current one...

I'm curious about how these little guys handle with 357 mag. What I really want to know is how you would describe the grip angle. Just went through the pic thread and it appears these guns have less of a square angle- like if I were to pick one up and hold it like my smith I'd be aiming high...

I seem to be posting a lot of articles. I think its irking some of the mods because it doesn't get discussion going about guns. But you gotta read this, I haven't enjoyed an article like this in a while. And maybe just maybe, we can talk about the merits of the article... how to use some of...

This article is dated for tomorrow's release, so I don't think its on here yet. Delete if a double post. Otherwise, what do you guys think? Is Chicago still gun-hopeless? http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/ct-oped-0701-chapman-20100701,0,5990134.column

Now, if you're like me, you read that headline and think "sweet, this is the type of stuff we need to see in the news" Turns out this is more of a soul searching article for the author. I finished it without really understanding what the point of it was. :confused: Anyone want to share...

I want to own a glock just cause I don't yet. Who knows if I'll like it or not. One thing that I have heard (and would like to test) is that they are rugged and can get pretty beat before any malfunctions surface. Where did you buy your glock? If you hate glocks, where do you feel most...

I'm not sure I have a question here, I'm doing this more to inform... hope the mods are cool with that http://www.heraldnet.com/article/20100422/NEWS01/704229907#County.drops.ban.on.guns.in.parks The County Council voted to repeal the law to bring it into line with state laws. By Noah...

I was walking back from the grocery store (total of 4ish blocks). .40 cal right hip (strong side) under a pull over fleece; you know the kind with the draw string at the bottom? cinch that just a little and it keeps the cloth from holding too close to your body and printing. I cross the...

This is a little premature, but i'm asking anyway. I just got a 9mm conversion barrel (by fire dragon, or something like that) for my XD 40. I have not shot through it yet simply because I haven't gotten to the range. However, when I remove the factory barrel and replace it with the...

Guys help me sort this out. An autoloader requires the hammer be pulled back on the first shot, but the action there after cocks the hammer for subsequent shots. This gun is DA/SA? If so how does a SA semi-auto work? Also when you load a magazine, and chamber a round doesn't that...

I just thought I'd share this article with you. The Hudspeth County Sheriff, Arvin West is urging border state residents to "Arm themselves." Would anyone like to discuss the pros and cons of a man in this position making this statement? How do you think people will respond to him...

I put this in Rally Points because we'd have to get a group of guys together for this. Please move if necessary... I contacted the Chief Deputy of the Everett Police Dept. about handgun safety classes or concealed carry seminars/classes. His response followed suit with his last response to...

I was reading another thread today: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=514664 And it made me realize that we didn't have concealed carry for as long as we had hand guns. :o I know some of you are shocked that I would have thought that... thats why I'm posting My Dad never owned...

Hey all, I've moved from Illinois to WA and taken up Fall turkey hunting with a work buddy. I've been talking to my Uncle about it and he would really like to get involved back in IL. His son has committed to the marines and will start boot camp on May 25th. I think that my uncle would...

I am a very happy owner of a Smith and Wesson four inch barrel 686 7 shot revolver. That said, I'd like to upgrade my trigger. The other day at the range I had a couple "misfires". The round didn't light off until (some of you may disagree to my doing this) I dropped the hammer a...

http://www.seattlepi.com/local/412772_suspect01.html?source=mypi This made national news so maybe a few of you have already read about it. Today the man who authorities believe shot the four Lakewood policy officers was shot and killed. Since the trail this guy seemed to be on was getting...

The article below mentions Nickles' ban may get caught up in court. I didn't know it was that close to being law. Has anyone been doing a better job of following this than I have? How close are we to this ban or one like it. This is a slanted article, sorry. not enough time to research...
