Hello to all, Well, I find myself moving backwards in life, and going from sunny South Florida to the Empire State this summer (cue Darth Vader theme song). I was wondering if any of you folks could offer me some advice on how to proceed (besides the obvious don't go part :D). I spent some...

I searched and couldn't fins any threads on this. Has anyone seen the new Ruger LCP? It looks like Ruger is going to be offering a pistol that would fit the same niche as Kel-Tec. http://www.ruger-firearms.com/LCP/index.html

Well, after much reading and some good advice, I finally decided and put the $$$ down on my first shotgun. I went with a 12g mossberg persuader: I had to order it, so it'll be here in a couple of days. I can't wait! It's straightforward and all business, and has a factory magazine extension...

Hello to all, I am looking into my first shotgun, and have posted earlier in my 'quest for knowledge'. I was just reading a thread on 20g for home defense: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=325765 and it is making me wonder a few things. I hope you guys can help me figure it out...

Hello to all. I swear I searched through the stickys and the shotgun forum before I posted. I'm new to shotguns, am considering getting my first one, so here goes: What type of ammo do I use for practice? I'm looking at a 12ga, 3" 870 with an 18" barrel. Only use would be HD/practice at...

Hello to all, I've been snooping here trying to learn more about shotguns, and have a few questions: 1. I really like the remington 870 and I think after reading around here that it is going to be first. As I was looking around at prices, I saw this one at buds for $269 shipped...

As I've been reading here at THR, I've noticed from time to time folks referencing shooting <with their weak hand> as a part of their regular practice regimen. Anybody here that does it, why? Also, do you practice shooting <with your weak hand> with your dominant eye, or do you try to switch...

Hello to all, I want to start by saying that this is not another of those what pistol for my wife threads. My wife has gone from vehemtly anti-gun to willing to get her CCW permit in the last year and a half. Between the deputy shootings and the break ins in our area lately, I guess she's...

Sorry-double post, please delete...

Hello to all- I'm looking for a pocket snub, and vote with my wallet on the whole internal lock thing with the new S&W revolvers. I've been checking out the old model 36 with the thought of grabbing one up and bobbing the hammer. Then I noticed S&W is 're-releasing' some of the older models...

Hello to all - I'm looking at this sweet offer S&W has on their M&P line and am thinking of either the 9 (to go with my much-loved 9c) or the 45. Any M&P 45 owners want to share their experience with me? Thanks.

Sorry if this has been posted recently. I couldn't find this in the search. Smith and Wesson has brought back the 2 free mags when purchasing a new M&P or Sigma pistol. he offer is Oct 1 - Dec 31. Might be a good excuse. It is for me...

:clears throat: ...Ok. I have disliked glocks ever since I first shot one 2 years ago and it jammed on me at the range. I have repeatedly been annoyed by Glock owners spouting off about how they're perfect (and the first one I ever shot jammed). I have shot a buddy's G22 and really disliked...

I'm wondering which SE state would be the most gun-friendly: North Carolina or Tennessee. Any input or experiences from residents?

Well, it was truly a great anniversary for me today. I got off work and my wife and I went to the range today. Why this is significant is that this time last year, my wife was vehemently anti-gun. Through a series of events, we got into a situation where SD was an obvious necessity and after...

Okay... *takes deep breath* I'm relatively new to S&W revolvers, although I do own a model 34. I'm looking into a 38spl snubby (+p is... well... a plus), and do not want one of the new ones like the 642. I really like the smith 642, but have a serious issue of principle with purchasing...

This just on Fox news. What would this lady have done if she was unarmed? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,294013,00.html GIG HARBOR, Wash. — Two pit bull terriers broke into a house through a pet door Tuesday and attacked a woman in her bed, mauling her badly, a Pierce County...

Okay, please forgive me if my revolver parts nomenclature is lacking. I'm a recovering semi-auto guy... Here's the deal: i bought a used smith 34-1 on guns america, and it works well, with this one exception; when I've finished firing all 6 rounds and push that 'doohicky' to help eject the...

Hello to all, With no place to go 'out in the woods' anywhere near where I live, I've finally found an indoor range that will allow me to take my 8-year-old son to go shooting. Any of you fine 'not geographically challenged' folks know there I can score some good eyes and ears to fit a little...

Couldn't find this one in the search, so here goes: For those of you who got a Smith and Wesson M&P during the free magazine promotional period, how long did it take your mags and range bag to come in? It's been a few weeks now and I'm wondering what some of you fine folks might have...
