I just picked up a Taurus PT 1911 on sale for $500! I figured that given the recent price increase that it's probably the best deal I can hope for. Haven't taken it to the range yet, but it sure is fun to fondle er... practice room clearing. Has anybody else got one of these? What should I...

A two-part article, comments wanted and welcome. ___________________________________________________ What If? You've probably heard about the VT shooting by now: A horrible tragedy, in its own right. However, it's even worse in light of this: It won't be long before both sides of the...

Hey all, I was tired of using packing.org's tool for figuring out which CCW permits I should get, so I made my own. I figured other people might be interested in using it as well, so I'm releasing it in its very beta state, but hey, maybe you can help me make it better. If you're like me...

Shooter's Supply's plans to build a new indoor range and shop in Loveland, OH are under attack. Seems that quite a few residents are really opposed to the idea, and the most prolific ones seem to post here: http://davidgmiller.typepad.com/lovelandmagazine/ They trot out the same old tired...

Looks like I will be spending a few weeks in Illinois for work - as an Ohio CCW and self-defense uh, enthusiast, what tips and advice can you give me? Hopefully I can spend as much time as possible in gun-friendlier Missouri. Also, any good ranges in the St. Louis area?

So, towards the end of my last range trip, I noticed the buck mark having a horrible time with ejection - about 1/3 of all the shots were failing to eject the brass properly. I couldn't immediately tell what was wrong with it, so I figured I'll just take it home, clean it, and everything will...

I just recently got a Springfield XD 40 Subcompact, and I've tried a few holsters out, but nothing is really comfortable. In fact, I find it to be a lot more comfortable to just stick my gun in the waistband (a la mexican carry) at the 3:30 position. This tends to ride pretty high, with the...

I was contemplating Ohio's CCW law - and the inconvenience of not being able to carry into any establishment that serves alcohol for consumption on the premesis - that is, just about every single restaurant - and I was wondering... What are the stats, as far as legal CHL holders breaking laws...

I'm visiting family in Orlando, FL, and I'm hoping someone can point me to a good public indoor shooting range around here. One that you can rent guns from too, as I had to leave my firearms behind :(

A friend's dad is an FFL, and I'm trying to get him to receive a pistol for me from NC. The problem is, he has never done this before and is unsure of the law regarding the transfer of a firearm from another FFL. He says according to Ohio law, an Ohio citizen can only buy or obtain a firearm...

Get a cute one. Or a small one. Or in this case, small AND cute. I get a lot of compliments on this little guy, especially from women, and almost every time their first words are "awwww, how cute." I don't know if I should take that as a compliment or be disgusted :) Sorry, I...

What the heck? The kid who got paralyzed because someone didn't understand gun safety, then sued Bryco out of existence, is going to use his reward $ to buy Bryco out... http://www.guardian.co.uk/usguns/Story/0,2763,1239748,00.html

I'm thinking about getting the heck out of Ohio, having spent all of my 24 years here - so I'm wondering, which states are the most or least gun-friendly? In terms of CCW, open carry, LEO harassment, blissninny levels, etc. etc. Of course, I should also take into account the other laws, and...

Well, I just spent this last weekend taking the CCW course here in Dayton, OH, and i'm pretty happy with the results. The course was taught by PPC at the Greene Co. Fish & Game assn.. The best part of the course was that it only cost $125 ($100 for GCFG members) - but I felt the course was...
