    Pistol caliber carbine poll / semi-autos only

    I have had several hi point 9mm rifles and liked them.Probably have another one day.I had an AR that takes glock mags in 9mm but sold it. My local GS has a Hi Point in 10mm and I am going to buy one but waiting for a black version as I don't care for Camo. I do have an Olympic AR that shoots...

    Picked up a Falcon 38 Spl

    Nice old pistola.The 3" barrel makes it even cooler.I like the old Falcon/Spesco/Taurus guns.I like the holster even more. I have an old INA tiger(yes it is gold) as well.Picked up this older Taurus recently as well.

    I did a 180 at the gun store today

    I have given up on finding a certain gun (unless new production)as my tastes are a bit off the beaten path some times.I walk in to my logal GS with an open mind and usually leave with an empty wallet.;) For a specific gun Gunbroker is my mortal enemy.:evil: That being said I am going today...

    Most popular handgun brand of THR owners

    Was able to check off 10.If Dan Wesson were there it would be 11.Add a couple of no names I wouldn't expect to be on the list and I'm done.A rifle/shotgun thread would be interesting as well.

    Winchester 10mm 200gr Black Talon in Clear Ballistics Gel

I did keep the two...

    Wife wants guns gone; Alternative storage solutions?

    Does she understand thay they can actually protect(not unloaded btw) you if someone tried to break in? I think some counseling is in order for both of you.If she encourages your shooting but doesent want them in the house that is kinda unfair and contradictory. She loves you and trusts you...
