    Ruger Mini-14 Sights

    I currently have a 580 series Mini-14. I love the rifle...except for the sights. Does anyone know of a better set of open sights that can be installed on it? I would like to find something that works along the same line as the A2 sights.

    1/7 or 1/9 twist?

    I am about to order a rifle kit for an AR. I already have the stripped lower. I am looking at the 16 inch barrel for it. It will be .223. I am a little confused on which twist to get. I could use some advice on which one would be the best choice for my weapon. Thanks

    Question about CCW in Texas

    Recently I had to spend a lot of time at NW Hospital in Amarillo. They had signs posted at the entrance stating the CCW law prevented the carrying of firearms on the premise. As an Oklahoma LEO would that restriction apply to me carrying my weapon in the hospital? My understanding was that...

    LEO Concealed Carry

    Sorry if this has been asked before. I did use the search function and didn't see anything on it. Does anyone know of LEOs having problems carrying concealed in other states? I am curious if this had popped up in cities and states where concealed carries are not allowed.
