    Gunbroker hacked again 01/02/16

    Everytime I go to the site I get redirected to some malware ad site. Beware, I am a frequent visitor to GB so I'll keep checking and let y'all know if it clears up, but for now GB seems to be unreachable. The conspiracy theorist in me finds the timing of this and POTUS' new threats towards...

    What to keep in a GO Bag

    Just bought a GO Bag, its basically a "tactical man purse" carried on my weak side over the shoulder and head in a cross draw. I already have the gun I am going to use, and three reloads. Put a Spiderco knife in one pocket, and clipped on a combo whistle/compass. Now I am at a loss, what else...

    Winter/Cold Weather truck guns.

    Mg truck gun is a .357 mag revolver. Maybe I am not correct, but I figure it will function in almost any environment.

    Impressions/Opinions wanted for S&W 619

    I haven't seen a thread in the last few years after searching the forum so I'll start a new one because I would like updated information. I just won an auction on GB for a 619 L-frame 7 shot that appears very clean from the provided photos. I haven't received the gun yet, I paid $431 for it. I...

    bullpup conversion for rem 870

    Very well engineered, and looks to be high quality, I just keep wondering how hard it would be to disassemble for cleaning. I do like it, make an already compact shotgun even more so. As far as price I'm thinking this would be a good conversion for a used pawnshop special or old warhorse type of...

    What do the LEO members of THR think of the potential AWB?

    LEO for 21+ years, never have been, never will be for gun control. It doesn't work, and I am not comfortable with only the police and military being armed. I'm against the AWB, was against the Brady Bill, will be against anything proposed. As far as not enforcing laws, you guys are barking up...

    Need help, my first black rifle

    I have been researching buying either and AK or AR variant. I find the AR's pricey and I have decided on a Saiga AK, my question is which caliber 5.56 Nato or 7.62x39? I can get one in either caliber and I was leaning towards a 5.56 in an AR but the price of a Saiga cant be beat. So Im...

    Illinois Proposing Assault Weapon Ban!

    Illinois citizens are not anti-gun once you leave Chicago. In fact Illinois has quite a vibrant hunting community. After all we all know the biggest trophy white tailed deer come out of the Land of Lincoln ;) Seriously this crap legislation comes up every year, its the state reps who represent...

    Paul Barrett’s: Glock, The Rise of America’s Gun

    I may buy two copies! Why two, Il give one to the old timers at work who still think "plastic guns" are a dangerous fad, and one to myself. FWIW, Ive carried a Glock on my hip for 20 years as an LEO. Back in the early 90's when I was hired on I was a rarity carrying a glock, but I dont think...

    Pardner Pump

    Not sure where but I found one, I think I found it on some web site dedicated to the pardner. anyway I had to use my dremel to grind off the tabs in the magazine tube to make it work, but it works. You will have a 7 shot, and the extension comes to the end of the barrell. Its 7 shots of 2 3/4...
