    Girlfriend needs a gun! (small problem)

    1. I am pretty weak in the upper body area and have wrist problems. 2. I don't like revolvers either. They have never been comfortable for me and shooting them hurts me. (yes my grip has been examined, etc.) 3. I use the push/pull method with no trouble. 4. Guns I shoot...

    R.I.P. capt_happypants (John from Gunworks)

    I feel like I've been hit by a freight train and I can't stop crying. He was also my favorite gun store guy. Gunworks won't be the same without him. I didn't get to say goodbye to him before I moved to Virginia (just two weeks ago), and now I'll never get another chance. Rest well, my...

    Martial artist damages my G19 sights and possibly gun as well..

    Take the gun to a gunsmith and have it checked thoroughly and documented(documentation is very important). Then present the idiot with a bill. Lastly, find a new friend.

    The beginners quest.

    One of my favorite things about the 1911 is that it is very customizable. I had the same problem, so I replaced the slide release with an extended slide release. No more problems. Unfortunetly, that made it a little harder to draw from my holster, but I'm still working on that. Maybe I'll...

    Who Doesn't Haggle?

    I would never haggle. I'm too shy. If the price isn't right, I move on. There are many other shops, not to mention the Internet.

    Gunsafe Law?

    I say no. The government has no right to tell me how I should store my guns. I am a responsible adult. I can think for myself thank you. I think it would also make gun ownership very difficult for those with low incomes. They would have to buy the gun AND a safe. What about the woman who...

    "I need a gun, can you help me?"

    If I were you, I would direct her to a good firearms instructor. Don't train her yourself, don't take her to the range, and avoid giving her any advice on anything but finding a good firearms instructor. If she does end up mis-using a gun, you don't want anyone coming back to you claiming you...

    While they are parked, you could walk up and give them some donuts. See if it slows them down. :D
