    Do you teach your young children gun safety?

    This is inspired by the closed thread about the Florida woman shot by her 4-year-old child. I have a five year old boy. I have taught him first the main parts of firearms from about 3 years old on and then integrated the four main rules of firearms safety into his curriculum. He can now tell...

    Can someone tell me about this musket?

    I don't know any of its provenance. The lock works and it seems to be in fair shape. London is written in cursive on the barrel along with two proof marks of what could be a crown over a V and another over what might be a C superimposed over a P. Anyone have any ideas?

    VPC stats show gun states have higher gun deaths.

    How do we contradict these so-called statistics? The anit-gun polititcians will eat up these stats! http://www.vpc.org/press/0905gundeath.htm

    The wife and I are taking a defensive handgun course...

    ...next weekend. She is a bit apprehensive about doing it. She shoots well, but gets a bit shy when having to shoot around strangers. I think she is worried about being judged poorly or belittled by more experienced male shooters. I tell he not to worry, but she is such a perfectionist that it...

    Dessicant packs...

    Well, I figured out why the packs were labelled do not reactivate. After a few minutes in the oven at 300 degrees F. the packaging melted into a plastic sludge :cuss:. I threw away the melted packaging and saved the dessicant kernals and continued drying it alone in the oven. I guess I will put...

    Dessicant packs...

    How do you recharge them in the oven? Times and temperatures? I also have a large one that says "do not recharge' or something to that effect, is that bs or can I still stick it in an oven to remove the absorbed moisture? I know this isn't completely gun related, but I put these in my ammo...

    Good handgun for the wife?

    This has probably been discussed before ad nauseum, but here goes again; my wifes birthday is coming up in a couple of months and I wanted to get her a personal defence handgun as a present. She shoots with me at the local range and has become fairly proficient with my .45 and the S&W .357/.38...

    Remington 700 BDL vs. VS

    I'm looking at a couple Remington 700's, both .308 win, one a VS with a 26" heavy barrel (and alot more expensive), and the other is the BDL model. I plan on mostly target shooting on my own property with some deer hunting thrown in. Am I going to lose that much in accuracy with the BDL over...
