    Liquidating collection

    As time marches on, I find myself with more guns than I can keep up with. I sold the Colt "Snake Collection" , which left me with 35-40 handguns and I lost count of long guns. I had planned on renting a table at the gun show, but the virus took that away. Now, what to do? Have an "Estate...

    Would a living trust have any advantage regarding current anti-gun legislation? For that matter what advantage/protection does a living trust give?

    Stupid is, as Stupid does.

    In my pre-orgasmic frenzy over getting my new dual tub tumbler to clean my brass with stainless media, I loaded one tub with .357 and the other with .38 Spec. Then I watched the Super Bowl forgetting that the tumbler was still running. (Yes Myrtle, alcohol was involved). Now I come home and go...

    Starbucks & CCW

    Just read that Starbucks is allowing (welcoming) CCW and Open Carry in their coffee shops. This, as usual, brings out the Anti's boycott threat. This "boycott" is to be on Valentines Day 2012. I've never been a fan of "YUPPIE" Starbucks, but you will find me in one on Valentines Day this year...

    Korean Surplus M1's

    As I understand it, Korea has received permission to send M1 Garands back to the U.S. for resale to collectors, but M1 Carbines won't be allowed back. My take on this is the CMP will get a large supply of Garands, which "should" drive the price down, while the price of Carbines will go up...

    Hogs and acorns

    Getting a suppressor

    I have a living trust (to protect my assets, not just to get a can). Exactly what is the sequence of events to get the forms, and any other things necessary to buy a suppressor. Some say it's easy, but don't explain what to do first, second, ect. Help would be appreciated.

    Firearm Insurance

    How many of you have a seperate insurance policy on your guns/ I know that most homeowners policies will cover a limited amount, but how about the collector, accumulator, and plain old "Gun Nut" that has thousands in guns and related gear. Necessary, or optional?

    .40 S&W loads

    How's 6 gr. unique under 170gr LSWC, .40S&W sound? I'm looking for a medium load for a Beretta 96 & Browning HiPower. How much Power Pistol to get a medium load? I'm snowed in, bored silly, cabin fever setting in, and have heartburn. ( Could it be the weapons grade salsa)? My choices seem to...

    Concussion Mitigation

    What would be the most effective method of reducing the effects of the concussion resulting from firearms. This would be indoors, in a relatively confined space. If you have shot in an indoor range with block, or cement walls and floors, you know what I'm talking about. If I were to set up a...
