    Gun-fu and 'gansta' style shooting

    Anyone see Carlos Mencia do his skit on how to teach Gangstas to shoot right. I think it was called Drive-by School or something like that. There was one gangsta holding his pistol sideways and Carlos asked him "why do you hold it like that?" The hood replied "because I look good holding it...

    Looking for grips for my Astra...

    I have an Astra .357 that was my grandfather's. I would like to replace the wood grips with a rubber grip like Hogue or Pachmayr. I can't seem to find any made for the Astra. Help!

    I took my wife and daughter to the range. [PICS]

    Well I have known my wife for 8 years now and for many of those years, I didn't even own a gun. I bought a Weatherby .30-06 in 2003 and when my grandfather passed way during that same year, I came into possesion of my Astra .357. I only used the long gun for hunting and only rarely shot the...

    I took my wife and daughter to the range. [PICS]

    I took my 47yr old wife and my 7yr old daughter to the range today. It was the first time that either of them ever fired a gun! I went over safety and gun mechanics with both of them and then had them shoot. My 7yr old was intimidated at first but after watching Mommy do it, she wanted to...

    What age to teach your kids to shoot?

    Thanks for all the input. I think I will start by teaching her safety and then we can get into actually shooting. I am gonna take a pumpkin or watermelon out and shoot it up close so she can see what kind of power guns have. I want her to enjoy shooting but I want her to be safe above all...

    What age to teach your kids to shoot?

    My 7yr old daughter is showing some interest in shooting and reloading. I am considering getting her a Buckmark or some other little 22. pistol to shoot. Just wondering if I should wait a couple more years.

    Hard Chrome or Blued

    My STI is hardchromed and I love it! It is more of a satin finish. Looks dirty at the end of my range session, but cleans up great!

    DFW Gun Range Roof Collapse

    Sadly, the individual owner's insurance is paying for the damage. The whole situation was called "act of God" so that lets the range owner off the hook. For the range owner it's good because if it was due to neglegence or anything else, then the damage to the range is not paid for by their...

    DFW Gun Range Roof Collapse

    I know this thread is old news, but while doing a search I ran accross it and wanted to post. That's my red durango you see in the pic above. The one with the word "Roofing" in the back window. ;) I was in the range when the roof collapsed. I had just put my target in the clips and right...
