I got a Bresa 380 from a friend for $100. I still have it. It's an excellent shooter and reliable as a rotweiller. Another friend gave me a new set of fingergroove grips for it. Made it even better!

To me the ugliest are the Bersa Super Commanche, and the Enfield revolver. At lest the Commanche has functionality within it's design. I borrowed the photo from a gunbroker ad.

My pastor carries, and numerous members of the church carry as well. I normally don't but have been asked too on occasion. Even small churches can handle a great deal of money on any given Sunday. Protecting the people is foremost, but protecting the assests is to be considered as well. If...

I have a Stag LH /ambi safety for my Seekins 300 BLK AR15. I bought a Stag Left Handed AR15 for my regular sporting use. It has an Ambi safety on it.

I'm thinking it was the neighbor's 4 year old little boy playing with his toys, and he put it in the mailbox without giving it any thought. It was directly across the street from my house and that's where he plays quite a bit. I'm just thankful that nobody was hurt, and that the police...

Latest update is that the Robot had opened the mailbox and was looking at whatever is in there. Discovered it was a toy grenade. All is good again! http://www.khq.com/story/25262798/update-spirit-lake-suspicious-device-only-a-toy-grenade

How would you feel receiving this e-mail message? This was absolutely legit. I just received a call on my cell phone, and an e-mail message here at work indicating there was a "suspicious device" found in my neighborhood. I called my wife Corlinda right away, and she was told by the...

There are actually 3. A TISAS 1911, a Glock 29 in 10MM and a Sig 1911-22. I've shot them all with no malfunctions or issues. the Tisas was NIB and really tight. I'm going to shoot a few hundred rounds thru it to see how it improves. I'm going to paint the sights right now, they're black on...

Gunbroker has captured the market for the most part. It's one of the few places I go to deal in guns with people outside of my area. Gunauction.com is fine for the harder to find collectibles, but they're not mainstream any more. I pretty much lost interest in the site a couple years ago.

I would carry the 44 magnum for the best protection you have at your disposal. But shooting them isn't a good idea from my perspective. First off you need to call animal control, and have them caught and relocated. These bears are losing their natural respect for humans and need to be moved...

Very nice. Of the two I like the Box Elder better. A little less "Flash", and lots of personality. Either way they're both beautiful.

What is it, and where do I find it?

This is my very first Glock pistol. I've avoided them for years because they never fit me well, and I'm a S&W guy at heart. This pistol is compact in length and height, but certainly not width. It's a double stack 10mm magazine holding 10 rounds. I've never before found any Glock pistol that...

I just bought 2 Hi-point carbines, one in 40 S&W and the toher in 45 ACP. I also bought an EASA Bounty Hunter revolver in 22lr/22mag, and a S&W model 39 to complete a collection. I pick all 4 of them up at the same time from my dealer, so all of them are the last gun I bought. I recently...

Sportsmans Guide almost always has the 1 hour Enery Drinks in each shipment. I can't stand the taste of the stuff, but I probably have a dozen of the sample bottles by now. If I'm ever pulling an all-nighter, I know how I'll be staying awake.
