I remember bumping across an argument that the US has such high homicide rates not because we are awash in guns but because we as a country are just more violent, and then data was shown that our murder rate for punching/kicking was higher than other countries. I am having zero luck finding...

I would pay very little for that. If I needed an 'off the books' gun then it wouldn't be a 22 derringer. a 22 rifle maybe, or a simple 1 shot 'liberator' type in 9mm could interst me possibly

right thing to do is call them up, tell them if they send you a pickup tag you'll send it back to them.

If they have a basic prying tool, yes, seconds. If not, then the time to locate/improvise such a tool. So don't put your metal cabinet next to your garage work bench, or have your toolbox close by. However, if you have insurance, this part to me is not very relevant as far as theft. Where...

I think it is important to define your purposes. Are you looking to preserve some very significant guns from any loss? Then a safe (and probably not the 'residential security containers' that are what most 'gun safes' really are) is what you want. On the other hand, if you have some firearms...

Yes, this is what I am driving at. I suspect it's never been tested, so there isn't any case law...at least not post Heller. A few thoughts on this. The fact that 1 and 2 cover LEO and military, and there still is a 3, plain reading says there must be others who are allowed, or there would be...

(1) the lawful performance of official duties by an officer, agent, or employee of the United States, a State, or a political subdivision thereof, who is authorized by law to engage in or supervise the prevention, detection, investigation, or prosecution of any violation of law; 1 covers law...

Possession of firearms in Federal Facilities. Shall not apply to - " (3) the lawful carrying of firearms or other dangerous weapons in a Federal facility incident to hunting or other lawful purposes." If carring is specifically lawful (example, carry with a permit of some sort, or with clear...

I have heard that once transferred, it can't be considered 'new' anymore. Also, no company has to take their product back as a return. Sounds to me like you own the gun and they want nothing to do with it. Because you own the gun, you can now sell this 'high demand' item just follow your...

can you link that law?

we are conditioned to think 'don't point the gun at anything you aren't willing to shoot' but we fixate on the muzzle rather than the human hand. Being in a shoulder holster untouched by human hands is no different than the gun being in a gun case. If some guy stands behind you with say a...

thanks all. It makes sense considering there was a gradual shift from black powder to 'semi-smokeless powder' (often less potent by volume than black powder) to true smokeless powders and then a general ramp up of performance in smokeless powder. And cartridges developed in the period...

thanks for the info guys

You don't have to worry about me going off and blowing my hands off trying this. This is theory only. Is there any powder that is multi-use enough that you could make it work in a centerfire rifle and a handgun? I suppose if you back up all the way to blackpowder era, you could have a 45...

Thing is, the word stockpile implies more than is normal or necessary, a special reserve. It has a negative connotation. A stockpile of food is 'paranoid, wasteful, think of all the people who don't have enough' etc. Also, what is normal is dependant heavily on each person's own culture and...

Seems to me your statements contradict each-other. The rate of gun accidents is much lower than many other accidents. Yet there are a lot of guns in households. Maybe the average person is as much of an imbecile as you think.

Having been on the internet for years I have seen many people post about the idea of requiring people to pass a safety course before owning a firearm. I used to think common sense was more prevalent than this. Turns out, your average internet commando calling for gun training is a complete...

any chance people want the 'worn' look because guns in video games are often modeled with external wear showing?

Per the title. Under the Gun documentary by Couric falsely placed a 'pregnant' pause after a question to imply the participants didn't have an answer, when in fact they jumped to respond. They are now suing http://fortune.com/2016/09/13/katie-couric-lawsuit/ Do they stand even a small...

If the question was 'which is better' then end goals would be relevant. My question is what are the benefits and hindrances of 30mm vs 1 inch. Once that is defined then people can sort out which is best based on their end goals.
