I know zilch about holsters, and I'm taking my carry course next month. I have a P-64 I want to carry, and as far as I can tell I'm somewhat limited in my options for holsters. My normal attire is business casual i.e. khakis, button up shirts and overall build is short and normal. (5'6"...

I dunno how many of you are anime fans, and that's okay if you aren't. What's linked here is flat out awesome. Reproduction of Vash's revolver. What you see linked here is a wooden recreation of the weapon from Trigun. In the series, the gun is a top break .45LC with the barrel in the 6...

My sister, god love the woman calls me up the other day and we have the following conversations: Sis: "I'm going to start hunting groundhogs and rabbits at the farm. Maybe deer too when the season comes up." Me: "You don't have a farm." Sis: "The Joneses. Where I keep my horse." Me...

I know there's a few of you forum members from Ohio, and I assume some of you have taken carry courses here. Any recommendations? I live in Dayton, so Cincinnati and Columbus are fair game.

I've decided that I'm trimming down my collection. I've got a CZ-52, a Taurus PT945, and a Taurus TCP that I just don't care for. I'm hoping to trade in the three of them and get two nicer guns out of the deal. I'm looking for a pocket carry piece, and possibly a 1911 style handgun. Adding...

I want to improve my shooting, and I figured that competition is one way to improve skill. I'm not really sure what to pursue, given my current collection. I know three gun is out, given I don't own an AR or AK, and I don't have a double shotgun, so SASS is out. Here's what I've got that I...

Is it legal for corporations to own NFA items? For example, how to private security firms acquire their Title 3 items? Edit: Can I get a mod to fix the title?

I bought a brand new Taurus PT738 on Saturday in preparation for my upcoming CCW course. I got to the range, loaded up some ammo and *click.* Eject the round, try another. Same thing. Try different ammo; same thing. I try again a few times and it finally fires. Fires again, fires again. And back...

So I've got this Savage 775a 16ga Semi auto shotgun that I've bought. It shoots fine and both the wife and I like it well enough to use it for home defense. It's got a 26" barrel which is a bit unwieldy for that purpose, so i went looking for a new barrel. Unsurprisingly, I can't find one for...

Ever since I got my CZ-52, I've wanted a carbine in that caliber. Today, I learned there is one. Russian PPSh-41 Semi-Automatic Rifle. What have you recently found that you've added to your "want" list?

The picture itself is a Parody of Left 4 Dead, which is a zombie shoot 'em up focused on team work. My question is: What is that handgun in the center?

So I'm in my basement, cursing the people who "water proofed" down there with some sort of plaster, as I chisel and grind it off the walls. It occurs to me that people have done a lot of tests with drywall an penetration, But I've never seen a test with plaster and penetration. A lot of older...

In what condition do you store your firearms? Bolt open? Slide locked back? Slide closed, magazines out? Magazines in place?

There's a lot of calibers and firearms out there that don't seem to have a purpose, or are an answer to an non-existent problem. The best example I can think of at the moment is .327 Magnum, though .45 GAP comes to mind. What firearms out there seem to be the answers to questions no body...

I've heard horror stories and raves both about the PT111, but not very much about the CW9. Anyone have experience with it? The price difference around here seems to be about $50 or so dollars, so they're both viable options for me at this point. Which would you recommend?

I've got a shotgun that I'd like to replace the stock on. It's a Savage 775a, so there's no commercially available stock replacements for it. This leave me with making my own. I don't really want a wood stock for this project, but I can't seem to find block of synthetic stock material...

I only have one shotgun, but I really like it. 16ga Semi Auto Savage 775A. People ask me "Why didn't you get a Mossburg 500 or a Remington 870?" 16ga semi auto people. It's a no brainer. Show me your 16's!

My wife is a history buff, having both her degrees in history. She volunteers at a local history park, and one of the interpreters is a war of 1812 Reenactor. She wants me to get a period appropriate reproduction and learn to shoot it so I can teach her, and potentially volunteer at this...

For all our talk of strategies and tactics, legalities and constitution, we often leave out the most obvious question of self defense. What do you do after a defensive shooting? Let us suppose the worst happens and you are forced to fire on someone. What do you do afterwards?

Metal, obviously. Wood, sometimes. Polymers, other times. But obviously they're not just any type of wood, metal, or plastic, other wise we'd see see Raven Arms Aluminum and Tupperware .25 special. What are the common metals, woods, and polymers used to make modern firearms?
