    Ruger SP101: Love it, Hate it, or...?

    Had a 3” 38spl that I liked well enough. Seemed blocky and rattley compared to my 642, so I let it go.

    So what happened to the pump rifle?

    Illinois AWB signed

    Does this preempt local bans? I think Cook county prohibits all minis. Chicago only bans the folding stock version. I suppose it would be too much to hope for to not be subject to three layers of AWBs.

    Bloomberg's gun control group spends $15M on campaigns in eight swing states

    ...and a state’s attorney who fails to prosecute gun violations, like straw buying.

    Who's had a 'negligent discharge'??

    Never so far. To be fair, I rarely find time to go shooting so that gives me fewer opportunities for mistakes and less time to get complacent. I’ve been looking at getting my carry permit and minimizing the possibility of a negligent discharge is top on my priority list as I get set up.

    Show me your shrouded hammer revolvers!

    What kind of grips are those on the SP101?

    Active shooter response

    I wish this attitude were more pervasive in responding to these mass shootings. I get the feeling from the expert discussion that one or ten or fifty deaths due to inaction are preferable to one death due to action. Hence you get standoffs measured in hours while people bleed out or a shooter...

    Shotgun capacity

    You can go to a gun store in the suburbs or order online and ship to an FFL. It’s fairly easy. They’re not responsible for knowing all the ins and outs of the Chicago municipal code. If you bought from a store with a gunsmith you could have the capacity limited before taking possession.
