    The 686

    Proud 4-inch 6-shot owner, here! I shoot this beast better than any other handgun I own. I got it super cheap too!

    Learned something about SKS

    If you feel motivated, you can disassemble the bolt, remove the firing pin, and replace it with an aftermarket part that is not free-floating. That should prevent slamfires. A simpler solution is to be sure the pin is free of all cosmoline, and don't over-oil the weapon! It's designed to run...

    Is it just me or are gun prices going higher

    No, the value of your dollar is going down, since it's no longer commodity-backed. Abolish the Fed! And the ATF...and the IRS... :)

    HD Shotgun for 16 year old girl, advice?

    I think a 12 gauge with the aforementioned low-recoil loads would do nicely, if you can find the shotgun and the ammo locally (or quickly). It's terrible someone so young should have to face that kind of reality. I think equally important steps to take would be to make sure her home alone time...

    Which Attribute of Guns is your LEAST favorite?

    MDeViney: It's tough to find a reliable, attractive pistol new in box for less than $200. Ugly pistols have their market.

    Have you ever been "made" by personal contact?

    Yep...a little lady gave me a hug, then inquired "what the [heck] is that!?" After I told her, we went to the range a few times. :)

    N.C. Man Kicked Out of Military Over Contraband Rifle

    I don't think it's so much to ask to be allowed to take home a rifle that belonged to someone who aimed it at me (but is now deceased). I guess I am old-fashioned.

    How they will ban your .22

    Of course no one needs it. Those who want to tacticool a rimfire rifle are welcome to do so. The rest of us work for a living. :)

    And then there are the guys who mark up WASRs to $450 and act like they are doing you a favor...

    Let's see those pocket guns!

    It's a Taurus, but it goes bang. I might file down the hammer some...

    Just got a compact Baby Eagle 9mm. cool! 5 rounds later the decocker broke. Not cool!

    My Baby Eagle 9mm Compact (polymer, with polygonal rifling) has served me well for 700 rounds or so. I don't know why the OP likes the trigger, though. The SA is okay, but the DA leaves much to be desired.

    Taurus M85 snubbie.

    Why do people look down on Rugers?

    I had the opportunity to pick up a Ruger autoloader for $200 with just a bit of rust. I was told it was a police trade-in. After handling it and (with the dealer's permission) dry-firing it, I handed it right back despite the excellent price. The thing was clunky and fat, and had a mediocre...

    5.56 question

    Is there a comprehensive list of AR brands/models that are 5.56 safe? If/when I ever go the AR route, I want to be able to fire both.

    Fedex loses my ammo

    It's probably something to do with the "US" in the abbreviation. I don't trust the average gubmint bureaucrat to run a lemonade stand, let alone deliver packages on time.

    First Time AR-15 buyer, price check

    That's a great deal. If it were a righty, I'd be mad I didn't find one for that price. Oh how I covet my stimulus check...

    NJ Gun Grab

    Hence my comment. Every single state in the Union regularly infringes on one right or another with impunity. In NJ, it's 2A and 4A. Here in Alabama, it's 1A.

    Fedex loses my ammo

    I am very worried about shipping anything valuable with any courier. I work at a retailer of valuable goods (no specifics), and we have items stolen out of UPS boxes before delivery every few weeks. I speculate that some people go to work for couriers just for the theft opportunities such jobs...

    NJ Gun Grab

    He did own some illegal items...the magazines. Apparently that is enough to force him to sell all his firearms. Why do we need governments again? Someone refresh my memory.
