I busted up my hand pretty good and am in a cast for a few weeks. It didn't cross my mind until a couple days later when I finally left the house after surgery, but I had no way to rack a slide, clear a jam, or reload a mag under stress. Thank God that I had diversified lately and kept a...

Hello, can anyone please help me ID what i have here? I have just come across a neat little pistol that was presented to me as a Walther PPK, but now I suspect that can't be true. The grips are Walther and the magazine is a Walther, but there are no manufacturing marks on this piece. I mean...

Hello, I'd be interested in hearing what price you all would think is fair for a Hi Standard Sentinel Deluxe in .22. A buddy of mine is loaning it to me for a try-out and it fits my daughter's hand real well. I have never had a Hi Standard before, I'm used to S&W, and the pistol just feels...

I'm curious about the dislike for pistol grips, why is that? I have them mounted on my HD gun and they feel great. I'm only curious, not trying to pick a fight, I would like to learn what's bad about them.

Here's a fun question: what's the best single shot you ever made? Be it hunting, or target, or professional (cops and military), or just plinking; what shot do you brag about when you get half a chance? For me, it was a wood duck that was just screaming along the surface of the river, seemed...

Here is the link to an article that I found enlightening on how gun rights are viewed by both sides. http://www.cracked.com/article_20396_5-mind-blowing-facts-nobody-told-you-about-guns.html Cracked.com is one of my favorite sites because it uses a very informal style (and quite non-THR...

Let's see 'em! This one was on my wish list for a little while; I just love the feel of the grips. Nice and cheap, came with a couple boxes of ammo, I'm happy.

I've just bought into a small hunting land co-op with a friend, and he is asking me for help in building a range on one slice of it. I know this has been discussed before and I've read many of the old posts, but a lot of those posts are 5-6 years old and unfortunately a lot of the pictures have...

Looking for advice on whether to sell or not. I've got a coworker who is begging me to sell him my 9mm. Standard cap magazines on it are 14 rounds. I'm a bit torn on the idea of selling in these turbulent times. I have more handguns than I truly need and I never carry this one, and rarely...

Long story short, I finished a job today and was tidying up my tools and talking to the lady in charge of the building. They have a lot of kids there and she was talking about their recent need to develop safety plans since the Sandy Hook tragedy and she wished she could carry a gun at work...

Hi, forgive the stupid question from a newbie on ammo storage, I searched but couldn't find the question asked anywhere else. Would you recommend that long-term ammo be stored on its nose, or bullet up, or sideways, or doesn't it matter? I'm talking about 5 years or so, factory loaded pistol...

Smith & Wesson 459 semi-auto, pretty good shape but the sight lifts up, is that normal? A friend asked me to take a look at his pistol for him because it wasn't shooting straight. I started adjusting the rear sight when I noticed that it was wiggling a bit when I would put the screwdriver in...

With all the rhetoric going on about repeats of the AWB, or possibly any new legislations, of course they would never outlaw private security guards (on whom all elitists rely), right? So, what if we all just went ahead and got licensed as security professionals? Yes I realize there's a lot of...
