    Heat Treating a Revolver

    I did some welding in a past life. In my experience a gun frame is so small and the metal so thin that the mere act of striking an arc would blow away half of the gun. And I wouldn't let a torch near a gun.

    Replacement for LCR 9mm?

    Get the grip for the LCRx 3". It is available in the Ruger Store and has a well cushioned backstrap. It's long enough to get all your fingers on. Then make up some bunny fart ammo for practice. If you don't handload have a friend do it for you. That revo will eat ammo that won't even push the...

    Super expensive guns and "Safe Queens"

    The closest I have to safe queens is my rifles. I can't shoot them and had to retire them after diplopia reared its lovely head.

    Any shooters out there with Lazy Eye?

    I have double vision, vertical diplopia, thanks to a mini stroke. Rather than use a patch I taped over the right lens of my glasses. I shoot pistol crosseyed and my rifles are now safe queens.

    Does Your State Require Training Prior To issuing A Concealed handgun Permit?

    Indiana has no requirement for "training". But we do have to pass a pretty thorough background check administered by Indiana State Police. And they don't tell us how to carry our guns.

    Now that ISIS has threatened attacks on American Shopping malls

    With the help of our media, the terrorists are winning. They need only to hint at performing an act. The media will take it from there and throw our whole Nation into a tizzy.

    Wheel Guns for Aging Gun Toters

    I can relate to you guys. At 82 I've lost so much strength in my hands that my cute little pocket auto mouse guns have become useless. I started out with revos years ago and have come full circle. Now a LCR lives in my pocket.
