    Not sure if this answers your question but while I was in Dick's Sporting Goods buying some ammo I asked the clerk if they ever carried the Mossberg shotgun (unsure of the actual model #) that came with the optional pistol grip, he said that was classified as a handgun and they didnt stock...

    One of the best things about Florida is I-95, it runs South AND North and any of these folks that dont like it here are more than welcome to hop on it and go back where they came from.

    Leaving Magazines Loaded (Since This Comes Up So Often)

    I'd like to thank you all for saving me some time & frustration. About a month ago I bought 3 Ruger 20-capacity mags and loaded each of them with 18 rounds a piece (carryover habit from the experience with my M-16 in the service), I had no sooner completed this when I was being told its not...

    Recent Gunshop Experience (pricing)

    I guess I'm surprised by all the folks that are surprised at this practice. A lady I knew years back told me she had never paid list price for anything other than food or a few other commodities or at chain stores, she would always ask "Is that your best price?" and 90% of the time it wasnt. I...

    What guns should a father give to his children?

    I taught both my boys to shoot using the same Marlin .22 I learned with & which I'm passing on to my grandson. My oldest son never had an interest in guns so he doesnt really care if he gets any or not. Once I'm gone they can decide what to do with my small collection, I just made it plain to...

    Sleeping better in NJ

    I moved out of Jersey 35+ years ago but even back then the powers-that-be made it so hard to purchase a handgun that most folks except the real die-hards gave up.

    Your rights are now suspended.

    I cant get too excited here, if the cop got warm and fuzzies by holding the guys gun until the traffic stop was concluded I could see him being a tad pissed but thats about it. The weapon was returned and everybody went their own way, nobody went to jail and nobody died.

    Its not just an age thing, in many gunstores you have to fit the accepted profile of the people behind the counter, young & clean-cut isnt good, preppy definetly isn't good,asking the wrong type question or sometimes any question might put you on their unacceptable list. I've found more gunshops...

    Pros and Cons of NRA membership

    I have owned guns for 50 years & never felt the need to join the NRA, in some cases I was totally against some of their stands BUT since Mr Obama, Ms Pelosi, Feinstein, Boxer and their ilk have taken over our government I felt obligated to join just to show solidarity and if that adds me to one...
