    gun safe dehumidifier

    Hi, how important is a safe dehumidifier? I live in San Jose where humidity is practically non-existent. Should I still have one anyway? Opinions appreciated. Thanks Eddie

    To glock or beretta?

    Hi all. Ok, here goes. I know it may have been discussed in the past, but just too lazy to figure out how to retrieve archives. My sister lives in Texas, and she's finally decided to buy a gun. She is taking a gun course where she'll shoot wheel and auto pistols. She's asked my what model...

    I didn't know China sold ammo in the U.S. This is supposedly a result of using Chinese ammo.

    Gun safe question

    900 pounds?? What da heck is it made of??!! Anyway, your message was in cyberspace as I was composing mine. So didn't see it until now. I should add that between a pick-up with a chain and the safe are two cars, 6 motorcycles and 2 tons of wife's "junk." (she calls it something else) In...

    Gun safe question

    Midway has one on sale for $15. But it's for a 200 cu ft. My safe is only 21 cu ft. Is that ok? Sounds like overkill. I'll research it more. I did call Golden Rod but all I heard was the usual, "leave a message - - - " btw, the Cannon has four large holes in each corner of the safe floor...

    Gun safe question

    I bought a Cannon safe from Costco and delivery was made about a week ago. I have it in the garage figuring it would be hard to steal a 500lb safe from a well-secured garage with dead bolt in side door and locking garage door. But today I read something from an old post in another gun-related...

    trigger weights

    I have a 39 yr old S&W 2" Chief's Special AirWeight. I bought it new in 1971 to use as my off-duty weapon. I think I have fired it about 10 times in all these years. The other day as I was checking it out which I do once a year or so just to make sure it still works, I noticed something. The...

    WWII Nazi Walther PPK

    Thanks Jim and Ron. Is it possible then, after reading your posts, that this gun may not have been owned or carried by a German Nazi? Is it possible that it was simply a gun issued to a member of the police force and not associated with the military? Wouldn't that make a big difference in...

    WWII Nazi Walther PPK

    Hi guys, a friend wants to know if this pistol has any collector's value. He said his father confiscated it from an officer (the story, unconfirmed, is that he had killed the officer - {no documentation}) Click to view larger image. There is no Nazi swastika emblem, however, notice the eagle...

    The obligatory fired casing with CA guns.

    Why does California have the obligatory fired casing that comes with the purchase of a handgun? Is it somehow connected to the gun itself? Like if it's used in the commission of a crime and they find casings, can that lead to the owner of the gun? I find that hard to believe so wondering what...

    .22 hollow point accuracy or lucky?

    I bought a couple of thousand rounds of .22 LR HP, Federal and Remington. I've been shooting the Rems using my Ruger MKIII Hunter. I shoot at 25 yds and consistently hit the bulls eye, a group of about 2 inches. I also use an old Marlin semi-auto rifle using scope shooting 100 yds and...

    MI Garand for $200?

    skidooman, I went back and re-read the qualifications and there is no way to get around the membership of an affiliate. I checked their locations and find two high schools within less than one mile from my house. Both are accepting new members. Now just gotta find out how much they charge...

    MI Garand for $200?

    Quoheleth, I may have to re-read CMP's site one more time but I'm under the impression that if I have certain qualifications I don't have to join any club. I am over 60 - I hold a CFP (concealed firearm permit) - I have prior LEO experience (three departments) and I'm a veteran. Also I am...

    MI Garand for $200?

    My SIL and I were discussing guns today and he said he's heard of MIs selling for around $200. I gasped :eek:and said I've been wanting to get a Garand forever but they're way too expensive for me. He said that this price is for members of some club or organization that uses Garands only...

    NEW RIFLE Mosin Nagant PU sniper PICS!

    Depends on which end you're at. :-) Louis, I have a MG with the folding bayonet. Paid $99 for it. Just curious, how much did you pay for yours? Today I was shooting my .22 Marlin rifle at the 100 yard section when the guy next to me shot a rifle with a report that sounded like a canon. I...
