Hello to all, Well, I find myself moving backwards in life, and going from sunny South Florida to the Empire State this summer (cue Darth Vader theme song). I was wondering if any of you folks could offer me some advice on how to proceed (besides the obvious don't go part :D). I spent some...

I searched and couldn't fins any threads on this. Has anyone seen the new Ruger LCP? It looks like Ruger is going to be offering a pistol that would fit the same niche as Kel-Tec. http://www.ruger-firearms.com/LCP/index.html

Well, after much reading and some good advice, I finally decided and put the $$$ down on my first shotgun. I went with a 12g mossberg persuader: I had to order it, so it'll be here in a couple of days. I can't wait! It's straightforward and all business, and has a factory magazine extension...

Hello to all, I am looking into my first shotgun, and have posted earlier in my 'quest for knowledge'. I was just reading a thread on 20g for home defense: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=325765 and it is making me wonder a few things. I hope you guys can help me figure it out...

Hello to all. I swear I searched through the stickys and the shotgun forum before I posted. I'm new to shotguns, am considering getting my first one, so here goes: What type of ammo do I use for practice? I'm looking at a 12ga, 3" 870 with an 18" barrel. Only use would be HD/practice at...

Hello to all, I've been snooping here trying to learn more about shotguns, and have a few questions: 1. I really like the remington 870 and I think after reading around here that it is going to be first. As I was looking around at prices, I saw this one at buds for $269 shipped...

As I've been reading here at THR, I've noticed from time to time folks referencing shooting <with their weak hand> as a part of their regular practice regimen. Anybody here that does it, why? Also, do you practice shooting <with your weak hand> with your dominant eye, or do you try to switch...

...if she likes it, etc, and all the usual "it's her gun have her check it out" conversations should be presupposed as both wise and already on the agenda. So far pistols I am considering are: Walther ppk Makarov If that stinking Beretta storm compact would *ever* come out Thanks to all...

Sorry-double post, please delete...

Hello to all- I'm looking for a pocket snub, and vote with my wallet on the whole internal lock thing with the new S&W revolvers. I've been checking out the old model 36 with the thought of grabbing one up and bobbing the hammer. Then I noticed S&W is 're-releasing' some of the older models...

Hello to all - I'm looking at this sweet offer S&W has on their M&P line and am thinking of either the 9 (to go with my much-loved 9c) or the 45. Any M&P 45 owners want to share their experience with me? Thanks.

Sorry if this has been posted recently. I couldn't find this in the search. Smith and Wesson has brought back the 2 free mags when purchasing a new M&P or Sigma pistol. he offer is Oct 1 - Dec 31. Might be a good excuse. It is for me...

...anything, I try to be open and intellectually honest. That's probably why in SPITE of the dogmatic "perfection" crowd, I have earnestly tried to *like* Glocks. I have given them every opportunity when they've been around to try. I mean there must be *some* reason why folks buy them by the...

I'm wondering which SE state would be the most gun-friendly: North Carolina or Tennessee. Any input or experiences from residents?

Well, it was truly a great anniversary for me today. I got off work and my wife and I went to the range today. Why this is significant is that this time last year, my wife was vehemently anti-gun. Through a series of events, we got into a situation where SD was an obvious necessity and after...

Okay... *takes deep breath* I'm relatively new to S&W revolvers, although I do own a model 34. I'm looking into a 38spl snubby (+p is... well... a plus), and do not want one of the new ones like the 642. I really like the smith 642, but have a serious issue of principle with purchasing...

This just on Fox news. What would this lady have done if she was unarmed? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,294013,00.html GIG HARBOR, Wash. — Two pit bull terriers broke into a house through a pet door Tuesday and attacked a woman in her bed, mauling her badly, a Pierce County...

Okay, please forgive me if my revolver parts nomenclature is lacking. I'm a recovering semi-auto guy... Here's the deal: i bought a used smith 34-1 on guns america, and it works well, with this one exception; when I've finished firing all 6 rounds and push that 'doohicky' to help eject the...

Hello to all, With no place to go 'out in the woods' anywhere near where I live, I've finally found an indoor range that will allow me to take my 8-year-old son to go shooting. Any of you fine 'not geographically challenged' folks know there I can score some good eyes and ears to fit a little...

Couldn't find this one in the search, so here goes: For those of you who got a Smith and Wesson M&P during the free magazine promotional period, how long did it take your mags and range bag to come in? It's been a few weeks now and I'm wondering what some of you fine folks might have...
