    Questions about EMF rifles

    I'm looking at the possibility of purchasing an EMF brand rifle in .357 like the one for sale here; http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=91628736 I'm wondering about the quality of the brand since I've not heard of them before. Does anyone know if the full brass receiver can...

    help with an anti-gun assignment

    What he wants to do is go in prepared, that is why he's asking for the help in detailing what's wrong with the movie. If he can make a sensible argument rather than just holler BS during the thing, people are more likely to listen to him. If there are any fence-sitters in that class, there's a...

    help with an anti-gun assignment

    A friend of mine attends a "left-wing" college, and in one of his classes, they will be showing the movie "Bowling for Columbine" and he is looking to find out the mistruths, lies, misinformation, and other B.S. that this movie contains to minimize the damage done to the less intelligent people...

    While I am refining old posters, something new

    I don't care if she's shooting with her left foot, being right nostril dominant, I don't want her shooting at me, because she looks like she means business, and knows what she's doing. Great job, Oleg!!

    Arnold is a traitor. Don't let your gunmaker be too

    I'm in agreement with this point. The gun makers will go all-or-nothing on their production. I know that should that happen, and I need a pistol, I'll be buying a pre-2010 model, that will be taking money away from the makers because they have already received payment from the original...

    I need Solace, Support or Reprimanding...

    I have a phrase that I've used once in my life, to very good effect. I would have been most tempted to use it again in your situation. You threaten me, and you're crazy. You threaten my family, then I'm crazy. As for the way you handled it, I see nothing wrong, you reacted with the...

    My gun store helped prevent a murder

    Good call Correia. The FBMG minions were on the ball that night and you no doubt saved the life of an innocent person. Considering the way this man acted in your store, it is no surprise that his wife is now his EX-wife. It just goes to show that an intelligent judgement call can do more to...

    Whose worse? Glock Homers or XD Homers

    I'm with SM. When I pick up a Glock, I feel like I have a toy in my hand, a top-heavy, icky trigger, rather unattractive toy with a bad POA for my hand. MOST LIKELY will never own one. When I pick up an XD, it feels light but solid, not like a toy. It's not totally ugly, but it is somewhat...

    Would I have been ripped off?

    Only you can make up your mind whether you would have been ripped off or not. If it's a good deal to YOU, nevermind what the rest of the world thinks. Could you get a new for cheaper? Yes. If you want HIS deal instead, then to you, it's a good deal. I'd pass.

    Frustration with Utah BCI

    It came in the mail on Friday morning, and I put it to use Friday afternoon/evening, and again today. I'll tell ya Wes, I sure need to figure something out on that XD-9. I hope to be working weekends soon. Well, not hoping to work, but hoping to get the extra money a weekend job will bring...

    Frustration with Utah BCI

    Well, that was easy. I did call them, everything has been processed, and it's been issued. I should be getting it in the mail this week or next. I don't normally make easy things difficult, but this was one of my moments. I would have bet money that I put the credit card info on card #1...

    Frustration with Utah BCI

    I know they are slammed, and I've waited for several updates on the site beyond the time frame I sent them my stuff. Given time in mail, say, 5 days for the packet to travel maybe 50 or 60 miles, that puts it in their hand on the 26th of June, that's with a LOT of benefit of the doubt. That's...

    My Letter to the Editor was Published!

    Let's hope you see some RESULTS because of the letter. Keep your eye on the future issues, as there are sure to be replies, pro and con. The more replies, the better. If enough people take an interest, perhaps the policymakers will revisit that policy. Great job!!!

    Frustration with Utah BCI

    Frustration with Utah BCI (fixed) Gotta rant here. I took my UT resident CHP class on June 20th, BCI's website shows they are now processing resident permits received on Aug 4th. Sounds good, right? Well not for me, so far. I used my credit card info, triple-checked it, and sent it in. I...
