    East palo alto detective

    http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/group.php?gid=305047662365 An East Palo Alto detective made statements on Facebook that clearly violate 2nd and 4th Amendment rights. He also stated his desire to "shoot on sight" anybody exercising their 2nd Amendment rights in East Palo Alto. If you...

    For those that open carry - why?

    For those that open carry - why?

    I could only imagine that OC would be a deterrent for bad stuff more than anything. The only downside is a situation when two OC's happen to have a disagreement while they are OC'ing, like a traffic accident or something where either side thinks they are in the right. I've only done OC...

    First AR, where to start?

    I'm sure there's lots of brands out there that will do you well. I'd just make sure you buy the one that suits your purpose. I got the Colt 6920 before I researched enough and ended up with the wrong rifle for what I wanted to do in the end. I have several friends at work that shoot service...

    First 9mm...not sure

    I have a SA XD45 and friends who have the same in 9mm and we all love them. They are practical, reliable, lightweight, and inexpensive. I have a Ruger P95 in 9mm and absolutely love it. I could see how the Ruger's bulkiness and weight would be an issue with some people who are strictly...

    Dillon Help

    You can use a stock model, which will include one quick change kit and one caliber conversion kit, and only buy subsequent caliber conversion kits and dies, but that will mean re-adjusting the dies and possibly changing out the powder bar for every different caliber. That would mean about $45...

    DUI w/ Gun

    Why is this even a question? With our gun rights hanging in the balance, how can somebody sit here and offer advice on how to push the limits of responsible gun handling, much less how can somebody even bother asking how they can get away with drinking and carrying? *** happened to common sense?

    Military and Off-Base Private Firearms

    Seems ironic that any military commander would EVER restrict private, off-base ownership or carry of legal firearms. Same people that operate the buttons that launch a lot bigger boom than any private arm might have. Had I owned or desired to own personal weapons during my 20-year career in...

    Man Sentenced to 9 mos for Shooting Car Prowler

    I can't help but think of what the penalty for certain crimes is. I hardly think petty theft should be punishable by death. If we don't assume the attitude that we only take a human life to protect ourselves or another innocent, then we are setting ourselves up for new laws that control weapon...

    Dodged a Close One With the Wife

    I always love these stories, and I don't judge those who are sort of deceptive about their purchases. It's like any other hobby. In my case, I never owned guns in the 25 years of marriage while I was in the military (and while our kids were at home), but all of the sudden we have finally...

    What would you do...

    My AR-10 type (DPMS LR308AP4) is dedicated to night stuff. I have a D-760 scope with illuminator attached and will eventually have a suppressor. Great round for medium range and within the limit of night shooting.

    Buying a New Gun Excuses

    I had a hard time justifying the S&W 500. Pesky elephants in the pasture didn't quite cut it. Black rifle multiplied and it was about 2 weeks before she noticed. Night vision scope doesn't look as expensive as it really is. Now that could spell trouble.

    Night vision good for hunting?

    I have a Gen III rifle scope. As with any NVD (except thermal imaging), it's light dependent. On a moon and starlit night, I can ID targets at more than 500 yds. I've ordered a variable spot/flood IR attachment that will likely take the range of the scope beyond the useful range of the rifle...
