    How many guys carry at least 1 knife?

    I always carry atleast one every day. Lately I've been carrying two. Someone always needs to borrow a knife. I lend the cheaper, smaller one. I never lend any of my good knives. I have a few favorite assited openers that i cycle thru. And since the place i work at doesnt allow "weapons" to be...

    Pulled over yesterday

    Depend on your area. I'm in Missouri, don't have to inform unless asked. The few rimes I've been pulled over its never been an issue, they have never asked if I was armed. Only time it came up was when officer asked if I was going to renew, I said yes, he said "right on"! And no ticket for...

    shots fired on my block.

    Depending in where I lived at the time changed the way I reacted to shots in the neighborhood. Living in east LA, a shot in the neighborhood wasn't too uncommon. I waited to hear for a scream or tires squeeling before I ventured out. Either way I always had a pistol ready incase it was a...

    Rim-fire reliability

    While I have plenty of small arms expeirience, my knowledge of ammo falls short. Why is rimfire ammo so un-reliable, prone to FTF's, etc. And due to the time that its been around, has no one or why has no one improved its reliability. Is it just .22 ammo? Is .17 and .22 may the same. I've never...

    shots fired on my block.

    Hey gamestalker, I used to live in Yuma. Lived there from 82-2000 or so. My neighborhood was daily quiet. Around 16th and Ave B. Only trouble like that I found I had to go look for. My parents moved me there from East LA, to try to avoid "noisy" neighborhoods. The only gun fire I hear now is...

    50+ Year Wait For This Gun

    Not to highjack your thread, but what are some other family heirlooms you guys have gotten passed down? My father passed away this past June, he was 88, bit a couple years prior I the Tokarev he'd had since before I came along. Stamped 1962, not sure how he got it, didn't asked, not safety on it.

    arizona school police officer makes parents mad.

    I think this parent or parents are ignorant liberals. And the police chief needs to go. The principal should have stopped it there. If I was either I would have said "if you don't want a uniformed officer there on a normal day dropping his kids off, what are you going to do when something...

    Pro/Anti family members?

    Thriller, I hear you. This doesn't really have to do with this thread but, I'm seeing pictures on pinterest, kids with. 22 or pellet guns, and the parent writes under the pic that it was taken while hunting or shooting and that the gun was absolutely unloaded. What's with all the disclaimers...

    What would your "buyback" gun or guns be?

    Has anyone considered that the police and FBI use the buy backs to find BG's? I'm talking running any prints on weapons turned in the they can tie to a crime. Has anyone thought of wiping down the weapons before they turn them in? Not because you are guilty of anything, but to keep your prints...

    Pro/Anti family members?

    I should add that I have talked into getting her CCW permit. She is the director of nursing at a local prison by us. I told her what to expect, the threats and all that. After the first month there she told me to sign her up for a class. And she doesn't want to carry one of the revolvers or...

    Pro/Anti family members?

    My wife and I have been together almost 15 years, and she grew up in a gun friendly home. Her mood on guns goes back and forth, changes with the seasons or something. At home she'll give me crap when I gear up before I or we head out. You should see her when I mention a gun show coming up, or...

    He said.." that's your right, that's OUR right!"

    Pretty much same here in southwest Missouri. I had the sheriffs depth called out to my house again a couple weeks ago, by a "dear" neighbor, because I was shooting in the empty lot/acreage across from house. The sheriff showed up, said its me again, and I said yup. "What took so long" jokingly...

    old school gun mods?

    I haven't looked, of come across any. But do you know of any and what kind of guns mods for "tactical" purposes were done "back in the day". Home grown stuff, PRE'WWII. cowboy modes, home defense stuff? Also, does anyone have their fathers or grand dads or great grand dads pistol or rifle...

    New Production 9x19 Tokarevs

    So is it illegal to have a Tok without an import safety on it? I've seen some advertised in magazines that don't appear to have one. They say they are C&R eligible.
