I've been shooting my 1911 in SingleStack for a few months now, and while I've been eyeing upgrades (Springfield RO, Colt Competition, etc) to my .45 milspec, I'm also thinking that for the same money I could expand into non-SingleStack as well. There are currently no Production-category guns in...

I've been away from competition shooting (my only trigger-pulling has been taking newbies to the range) for several years now, and my only competition has been Bullseye. I got back into a local casual .22 Bullseye league, and it's fun, but routine now. And apparently they started allowing using...

All, I've been arguing on the internet for a while that CCW legalization (and more to the point, that allowing CCW permit holders to carry in schools and the like) is a good idea, and one of my supporting arguments is that CCW holders are less likely to commit violent crime than police are...

The 30-day extension was granted in late July IIRC, seems that DC should have their appeal completed and filed recently?

All, I'm looking to try out more practical shooting competitions. I've got a 1911 .45 that I've used in an IDPA classifier, but it jams on me enough that I'm loathe to use it again before I can get it fixed (I ended up in the upper end of the "Tyro" semi-classification after a few FTFs)...

All, As I'm the only (or perhaps the most responsible) "gun-nut" she knows, a coworker has asked me if I'd be willing to assist her 18-ish Marine Corps Private son - apparently he's done very well on the rifle qual, but not well on the pistol qual, and he's getting deployed to Iraq in a...

All, For a while I've been figuring my next pistol was going to be a 1911 widebody in .40S&W, knowing that #1 I could use it for IPSC classes where my current singlestack .45s don't let me go, and #2 I could get a 10mm top-end for it and use it for heavy plinking and maybe pinshooting...

I may be required to move to Albany, New York in the next couple months for business reasons. I've looked on packing.org and have digested the information there regarding permits and such for Saratoga, Schenectady, Renssalaer, and Albany counties (the business and some of my family members...

All, I've read a few of the "another 10mm question" threads and had one occur to me: Does anyone make (factory or 'smith) a widebody 10mm based on the 1911 style (i.e. no Glocks, Sigs, or for the most part S&Ws)? I've gotten kind of fond of the user interface of the 1911 but am...

All, I've recently gotten an 1911 (Springfield WW2 milspec) that I'm planning on using for Bullseye CMP leg matches, and would like to use it to dip my toe in local IDPA and IPSC competition as well. My carry gun is a little .380 (carried either in a pocket or in a PagerPal holster) and so...

All, The question has come up on another (non-gun) forum I frequent regarding the recent school shooting in Minnesota, of "how accountable are gun owners for the harm caused by someone else stealing and using their gun?" Now, I know that in the particular case in Minnesota, with an either...

All, I just saw a link to the Senate bill (S.1805) that someone said would (as amended by Ted Kennedy) ban most hunting ammunition. The amendment 2619 is as follows: (bold added by me) I'd really like to be able to point to an instance where Kerry voted for restricting hunting rifle...

I've been reading all the related threads with interest, and was wondering if you could help me out with my own similar-but-different question. I'm about to get a non-resident Mass carry permit (to add to my existing NH carry permit) so that I can carry a pistol in my car when I go to work...
