Amendment is withdrawn What a difference 5 hours can make................. http://www.washingtontimes.com/blog/inside-politics/2012/may/8/Democrats-withdraw-trayvon-amendment/

me too! I was Christmas shopping at Wal-Mart for someone else - I couldn't resist the Mossberg 410 pump they had and ended up getting a present for myself. :D

Does anyone have the plans for making a long rivet tool (for an AK build) out of a 36" bolt cutter? Gunsgutsandgod.com had great plans and instructions, but the site is no more. Thanks

My understanding of the changes that take effect tomorrow is that persons who apply from states like mine, that have no concealed carry permits, or that don't recognize Utah/have reciprocity is that we can still get a Utah nonresident permit. From the Utah Dept. of Public Safety: If a...

Florida permit? I guess you still have the option of a Florida permit for times you are out of the state of Oregon? Two neighboring states honor the nonresident Florida permit. It would of course be no good in Oregon. http://www.usacarry.com/concealed_carry_permit_reciprocity_maps.html I...

"need" What is most troubling to me about the teacher from the OP is the use of the word "need." Constitutional rights are the basic tenents of our society. It would be just as easy to say, well in this modern society, troops don't live in private homes, so we don't need the 3rd Amendment...

high capacity magazines Magazine capacity is going to likely be a big issue in the aftermath of this tragedy. Paul Helmke is stating in a press release on the Brady Campaign website: http://bradycampaign.org/media/press/view/1339/ “The 22 year-old shooter in Tucson was not allowed to...

The Walmart in south St. Louis county had a couple Mossberg 500s for $217 tonight. Mavericks were cheaper yet.

While I'm no fan of the average politician, that is not quite how it works: http://usgovinfo.about.com/od/uscongress/a/congresspay.htm "Prior to 1984, neither Members of Congress nor any other federal civil service employee paid Social Security taxes. Of course, the were also not eligible to...

Do you have a big closet? http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=593357 You could likely mount this inside the closet as opposed to mounting it in the wall between studs. It wouldn't be quick access in case of an emergency, but it would be a place to secure your firearm during periods...

Charging documents and OP's To be a prohibited person under Federal law, the conviction does not have to be for a specific "domestic" battery charge. If a woman beat her husband and was charged with a simple battery, which made no mention of their relationship, she would still be prohibited...

My Dad bought a Marlin Goose gun (the 36" barrel, bolt action 12ga) around 1982. While visiting him I got it out and tried my skills out with some clay pigeons. It was rather embarrassing - I hit a few that I waited until they were a long ways out. I told the story to an "old gun guy"...

I assume that chopping the barrel down would be cheaper than counterboring it? I was under the impression that some Mosin Nagants have been counter bored because of issues with the ends of the barrel

I have an AES10B that was a Century build. The piston was welded in. I noticed wear on the end of the piston that I concluded was from the piston being welded in place with no "wiggle room" and decided to remove the piston and replace it with a pinned one. It was a lot of work to get it out...

Chicago approved? Breaking news: Chicago residents are allowed to keep/own one of these pistols for self defense as long as the pistol is stored in its puzzle state and the instructions for solving the puzzle have been destroyed upon delivery of the pistol:neener: I couldn't...
