    Would you buy firearm responsible for a death?

    Of course In fact, depending on who fired the shot and recieved the bullet, I might pay more. What if you could buy the gun that was used on Bin Laden, for example (I know it won' happen, but as an example...). Shooter429

    questionable gun background

    Use common sense and CYA 1. If a deal is too good to be true, it probably is. 2. Take a witness. 3. Check I.D., seller's reputation and make bill of sale. Also, understand that the first time a seller burns someone, they are going to be reported online and will likely never get business...

    What is the lowest caliber you will carry

    It all depends Are we talking bear country or mean city streets or a country store, for example. 1. Have a gun 2. Use enough gun. 3. Carry as much gun as you can handle effectively Obviously, out in the woods, I would be comfortable with a 12 Ga. riot gun or .30-06 and a .44 Mag...

    Concealed means concealed

    Owen, why do you set up straw men. You and I both know your analogy has nothing to do with the issue at hand. Stealing is a crime. And while eating is essential to life, stealing food from a store is not a fundamental right. However, being able to shop while maintaining one's inalienable...

    Concealed means concealed

    No sign stops my rights from existing Just because a place is not publicly owned, does not mean it is not open to the public. If it reasonably appears to be so, I will carry there whenever I please regardless of any silly signs. Our right to life, liberty and property do not end at a store...

    Two Lawmakers say they'll carry guns after Arizona shooting

    Why not use ballistic protection and body guards Every cop I know and many private security agencies use bullet resistant armor and carry weapons. Why is this not standard? Note: many of these officers will moonlight as security. Also, as others have suggested, deputizing entourage members...

    proposed federal high cap. mag ban

    Please be very careful about jumping on the "mental illness ban" bandwagon. First of all, given the vast array of MI in the APA DSM4TR everyone in the nation will fit one or more categories of mental illness, which includes benign things like anxiety disorder or OCD or a soldier with PTSD. Not...

    Want to find AP M955 or similar if useful

    Tired of tailgaters How did ya know :) I have seen some demonstrations against vehicles in .308 and .50 but never for the 5.56, and yet the military has AP for the 5.56. Since I own an AR and not a BMG, I thought I would get some and try them out in case I need to engage BG (read tailgater)...

    proposed federal high cap. mag ban

    A good excuse to buy them up When will they learn? Every time they start this rhetoric, people react by buying guns and ammunition, magazines and gear by the truck load. I started buying up hi caps last month and am ready to get some more. Thanks to all the leftists who give me the excuse I...

    Reloading w/armor piercing bullets?

    AP for hard armor not soft body armor If you have concerns of whether your threat is wearing body armor, you can use the tactics of shots to the hip/pelvis first instead of center-of-mass/ches.. I am interested in hard armor like steel and ceramics, not Kevlar. Would like to punch holes in...

    Want to find AP M955 or similar if useful

    I would like to purchase AP ammo or bullets for 5.56.Anybody test these against lightly armored vehicles? Is the 5.56 too light to be effective in this role? If not, can I just make my own out of hard steel and a jacket on a lathe? In WA state. Thanks.

    New caliber discovered. Need info

    While waiting to ship off my Sig for repair, I happened upon a very unique looking Colt 1911. It looked to be Nickel plated. I looked more closely, and saw under Caliber .38 Super. Then I saw it was a single stack with a 10 Rd capacity. I was intrigued. Oddly, I had never encountered one...

    Tired of polymer but on a budget

    What is a working guy to do? I sold off my Glocks, Ruger LCP, KTs etc due to the financial bust. Now I am back in the market. I started with a mouse gun. I started fondling some 1911s, but lack the cash to do one right at this point. Instead of my usual polymer something or revo, I decided...

    NAA Guardian 32acp

    NAA .32 Guardian I have spent years with many different mouseguns. I like to carry polymer, but always find myself drawn back to steel. After ridding myself of all KTs and my LCP, I was on the hunt. Tried a Couple Bersas, but they just were not small enough. Then one night, I stopped by a tiny...

    Taurus PT92 for home defense

    Best model of the worst brand I would not recommend it. Although mine was the most reliable of all my Taurus handguns, it still had to go back to Taurus for fixing, took around 4 months as I recall, and then functioned with fmjs reliably, until it broke at ~1900 Rds and had to be replaced...

    S&W Model 637, Buyer Beware

    I disagree with the idea that 637 (or variants) are poor quality I have owned several J-frames including the 442, 637 etc. They all had excellent actions, in fact the 637 was the crispest, lightest, action I have ever felt (including custom guns) and were tight as a drum, and held up to hard...

    CCW permit as ID

    I used it one time As second ID during a hiring process (non-LEO). Bad idea. "Look, you know we don't allow guns..." Never again. Shooter429

    How to check a buyer to see if a felon?

    Here is the law Personally, I use a much higher standard than is required, including 2 forms of I.D. a CPL/LEO I.D., but that is just me. The private seller as more leeway than an FFL, but I would encourage everybody to hold people to the same or higher standard for the sake of our...
