    Agree or Disagree with 'Gun Sanctuaries'?

    The declaration of 'sanctuaries' for gun rights against federal law is for the most part ceremonial. Just like most 'common sense gun regulations'. However here in NM where we are currently looking at new gun laws being shoved down our throats, these cities and counties that refuse to enforce or...

    CZ Owners

    Hammer down. Being able to carry that way is one of the major reasons I prefer the CZ. Although I don't have a decocker model I usually lower the hammer before I leave the range,

    What happened to all the threads about anti gun legislation?

    OP may be referring to the banner on the top of the page that states THR has moved. Its the same THR, just on a new server as I understand it. I also agree that there just hasn't been much discussed about ne bills lately, but there will be soon. Too soon.

    How effective are linear compensators ... really?

    I have a Midwest Industries blast diverter on my AR pistol, it doesn't make it quieter, but it does move the sound away from the shooter. It also makes a pretty fireball out the front instead of seeing it in the sights.

    this is a very important round...

    When I first started I was loading single rounds though the ejection port, it let the barrel cool down and made me slow down... found my load and spent all weekend pulling that lever... almost 50% failed to feed from the mag, they were all at max length and not well formed (I had neck sized them...

    this is a very important round...

    No, not going to bronze it. Hell, I'm not even putting it on the shelf. I'm gonna shoot it, that is what we make these for right? That's the first of a new ladder work up I'm doing, I want to start over so I tossed my old load log and am reworking my loads. I do use my lead sled during workup...

    this is a very important round...

    Thanks for all the replies! At the time of the injury there was no way my family could deal with me not working that long. I had already avoided a "necessary" neck surgery by being stubborn and dedicated to PT. I asked my Dr. if I could PT my way out of this and he said I had 8 weeks, as that's...

    The High Road AR15 Picture Thread

    Not a rifle but as someone said a few pages back... all ARs are rifles... Its a PSA upper and a very problematic ARFifteen lower (AR57 made) I think I finally got the kinks worked out, its had every issue a lower can have, but its still fun to shoot when it works.has an amazon Chinese sight for...

    this is a very important round...

    While it may look like any other .223 REM, this is the first round I have made in over 3 years. While trying to make a comeback from becoming very overweight, and having no energy or drive, I managed to tear up my right shoulder, surgery is in my future but I am a PT believer and even my Dr. is...

    Been a long time... I've got a question for y'all

    While I can't help you with a name, I am happy to hear that you are doing well. I have been away for almost two years, I got an office job and got fat, then I tried to get better and hurt myself. I am just now getting back into my hobbies, including shooting and reloading. Find what works for...

    The ibuprofen club

    I'm not sure how old you are. I'm not quite 40 but I destroyed my rotator cuff about 2 years ago. In the last few months I have been able to start shooting/reloading again. Your immediate future may seem unpleasant, but follow through with your PT and you'll be back at it soon. I am not...

    Highest maintanence firearm

    Calico Liberty 9mm. Has to be disassembled, cleaned, and lubed after every use. I don't mean day at the range, I mean every 50 rounds. Also about every other use I have to disassemble the magazine(s) and clean them also. I have replaced several springs, and some of the roll pins just started...

    Fondest Memory you have shooting

    Maybe 3 days ago. My 3 teenagers got up and did their chores so they could go to the range with me. We spent hours at the range with me getting to work 1 on 1 with each of them on pistol technique. I'm still wondering how 3 teens got up on a weekend without drama or the promise of an...

    Anyone have a Bersa BP9 CC? That or the LC9s?

    I have only sold one gun ever, and it was a Bersa BP9. It felt great in my hand at the store. It never had a FTF or FTE. The trigger was smooth, albeit short. Its overall a great gun... but I think I only hit the target twice out of the 300 rounds I put through that gun.
