    Reloading bench print outs/posters

    So I have to ask - I FINALLY have a real, nice loading bench inside my apartment (one of the advantages of living in the middle of nowhere is that apartments can be reasonably priced and 2k sqft). I was putting a clock on the wall behind it, and put some speakers on the wall, and I was...

    Does anyone have a Dillon 1050 for personal use?

    I know the 1050 is designed for commercial ammo makers, but I was just curious if any one here used one for loading personal/family ammo and if you had comments about whether it's worth it or overkill. I've been using a Lee Turret and feel the need to get my own progressive - I'm thinking that...

    "Rapid fire" rules at ranges

    How many of you go to ranges that have rules regarding frequency of shots? Where I am in California I've only been to one range that allowed controlled pairs of shots and that was an expensive indoor range. I assumed this was standard, but I just got back from a 3 week trip to NH visiting...

    Reloading software?

    I've been shooting for years but have just recently started getting into accurate centerfire calibers, and I'm acquiring equipment to start reloading for accuracy. My question is whether or not any of you use computer software or a database to track different loads you've tried, group size...

    AR lower age

    So, to my understanding, you have to be 21 to buy a stripper AR lower receiver, since they could just as easily be a pistol as a rifle. What I can't find is what amount of "rifle" a lower receiver needs to be to count as a long gun (IE - at what stage of assembly, or does it need to be a...

    Mossberg 500 Trigger Assembly Guide

    So I decided to take my trigger assembly apart tonight...what a mistake. Took me almost 4 hours to get it all back together and working from exploded view diagrams. I was absolutely livid at the lack of any information about how to do this fairly essential task on this incredibly common...

    10/22 zero/best accesories or mods

    I went to Big 5 last night and bought be first ever new gun, a 10/22! I'm really excited, everything up until now has been used. It was on sale, cost me about $275 after tax and fees. I don't actually get the rifle for 10 days, but you can be sure that 12/17 is a date that is highlighted in...

    07 FFL questions

    I can't seem to find much detail from ATF regarding whether or not they treat different classes of FFL's differently in terms of what they're looking for. It's a few years off yet until I'll have the means, but I'd love to get my 07 FFL (manufacturer) in a few years. I have a few years of...

    Good pro-gun books for teenagers?

    As you may be able to guess from the little "Location" box on the left, I come from a very liberal state. I live in Davis now, but I grew up in the Bay Area, which is notable for having some of the most liberal beliefs of anywhere in the nation. My entire childhood, I was assaulted by anti-gun...

    Obscure Question about ATF

    So my roommate (a pre-law student) and I were talking about ATF agents over dinner, and we came up with a question that neither of us could answer: Can ATF agents have an FFL or is it considered a conflict of interest? Has anyone ever known or heard of an ATF agent with theirs? I could...

    CA-Yolo Bypass Hunting

    Just curious if anyone else here is from the Sac area and hunts the Yolo Bypass. I'm trying to get back into waterfowling and I've heard that Yolo Bypass has some of the best hunting around here. Finally got around to buying my license last week and was hoping to get out before the end of the...

    CA legal/off-list .308 ar-15 reciever

    I was just wondering if anyone knew offhand if there were any AR-15 (erm, ar-10, technically speaking, I suppose) lower receivers in .308/7.76mm that are CA legal. I had a chance to shoot a friend of a friend's SR-25 in Reno a few weeks ago and absolutely fell in love...'accurate' is a...

    California interstate long gun transfer

    Sorry if this has been asked before, I've been searching google and forums all day and there doesn't seem to be a really clear cut answer: I'm a California resident. My friend and roommate is from Nevada and maintains residency there while attending school at Davis. I visited him a few...

    Is anyone else from California?

    Just curious is anyone else on here was from California and how you deal with our legislation and living in a very gun-unfriendly environment. I've lived here for 20 years now (I was born here and never left) and was just curious how many other Californians are around here. And yes, I know...

    Pre-68 Mossberg 500 Choke

    I just bought a pre-68 mossberg 500 in 12ga from a local gun shop for $175. Gun is gorgeous, great condition, etc. Unfortunatly, being a CA resident, I have to wait my 10 days until I can have it (grr), but regardless: The barrel is not threaded for a choke. What's my best option for using...
