A shooting occurred on the University of Texas campus just this morning. Very little detail has been released thus far. One shooter took his own life but police think there may be a second. 8 to 10 shots allegedly fired.

i asked this in another thread a while back and didn't get a response, so i thought i'd try it in it's own thread since it worked in the LCP vs. PT-907 thread. anyway...i was hoping someone could post a picture of the CZ RAMI right next to a glock 26 or 27 for me. if a shot from behind...

i know there are several other members in the austin/san antonio area. i was wondering if any of you could confirm or deny with certainty whether the san antonio zoo has 30.06 signage. i'm planning a mother's day trip to the zoo with our youngin', but i was pretty intent on carrying when i...

hey CZ fans! i know there are lots of you here, so i'm sure someone can answer what is probably a silly question... i have been researching CZs online lately, but i wasn't quite clear on the difference between the B, BD and SA models. specifically, i wonder what CZ means when they say that...

due to family circumstances, the wife and i are considering a move to western NC where we can rely on her parents for childcare and where there is family land we could eventually build on. finding good jobs would be a concern, of course, as would any lapse in insurance coverage for the new kid...

i've checked CDNN, cheaper than dirt, midway, and brownells. everyone is out of stock. does anyone know who still has 30rd mags available from a reputable manufacturer at a reasonable price? if so, please point me in the right direction. please spare me the lecture on how i should have...

i've been considering a sig P239. yes, this would be for CCW. in fact, i don't plan on buying any pistols in the near future that could not, if necessary, be used for CCW. but that's a different topic... i keep going back and forth on 9mm or .40 for this gun. here are my thoughts in favor...

mods...i tried to edit my thread title and ended up with a dupe. please delete this. sorry and thanks!

i'm finding that a gun conceals easier on my body in the appendix position than the more common 4:00 position. for those of you who appendix carry, i pose the following questions: 1. what gun are you carrying there? 2. what holster do you like for appendix position? i'm assuming IWB, but...

another post on building a berm got me thinking. would it be safe to shoot into the side of a high hill if you set up a sand & tire berm on the side of it and there was a house on the top of the hill? maybe i'm being totally stupid. what if you setup some kind of angled steel to protect from...

poll pretty much says it all. i'm looking at getting a less-than-full-size 1911 that would often be used for CCW. i've mostly limited it the above, but i'm always open to further suggestions. if you choose "other", please enlighten me. thanks!

howdy, so yesterday i was in a gun shop outside of town that i had never been to before. they didn't have much, really, but the prices seemed pretty damn good to me. in particular, there was a double eagle officer's model priced at $345. i didn't look closer at it, so i can't comment on...

hey fellow THR-folk, i was wondering if someone here could help me. my wife works at a WalMart pharmacy and she gets a one-time additional discount for the holidays on top of her normal discount. of course, i'd love to use it on a firearm if possible. the problem is, they don't carry guns at...

hey guys, stopped in at the LGS on my lunch break today to check out the used guns. they had a 4-inch M64 with the tapered barrel priced at $285. the stainless finish was pretty beat up with nicks and such. i've been looking for an inexpensive revolver to keep as a truck gun, preferably...

which AR lower to start with? so...reading through another thread on ARs, i have finally been convinced to go the "build" route. previously, i figured i'd just buy a complete rifle when i had the finances together. but i came around to the build for the usual sound reasoning: - gain a better...

well, almost... i still have to draft a revised version of my original proposal based on the feedback at our meeting. then the GM has to sign off on it. that might sound less than promising, but you'd have to know where i work to truly understand just how close i am. once i write up the...

title says it all. my wife has a .22 snubby that her dad gave her. it was previously given to her grandmother for defense [nevermind that .22 is a poor SD round]. it's about j-frame size, 9 shots of .22lr. poor trigger. only brand name i can find is "hi-standard" with no address, though...

hey all, i'm looking at picking up my first 1911 sometime soon. i want something that is high-quality and that is likely to run reliably out of the box. perhaps that's too much to ask, but i'd like to avoid a lot of gunsmithing if possible, as it seems to be the norm for 1911s from what i...

so...maybe a dumb question... is there anything you can do short of ordering a new cylinder to improve the lockup on a particular revolver? if it has just a little shake...not bad, but could be tighter...do you just have to live with it, sell it, or trade it? any other options? will the...

it's been long overdue... yesterday i went ahead and started an EasyPay Life Membership with the NRA. i've been meaning to do this for some time. now i just gotta make 40 monthly payments, and i'm all good. :)
