I've been looking around and everything is from 2010 or earlier. Additionally, the Gunpal/Gpal website does not exist, showing only a default server page. Is it gone? Did anybody get their money? Is Ben Cannon facing any charges? It's been a while since I saw anything about this, and while I...

1) Good service from knowledgeable, intelligent people who won't hand me a weapon muzzle-first or complain about Obama and/or politics in general. I'm there to buy a weapon, not to have you show me your ass. 2) A good selection of ammunition in common calibers. I understand that you might not...

Those of us who remember when the Assault Weapons Ban was passed remember what Bill Ruger said, and the backlash was swift and firm. I often wonder how much business Ruger actually lost because of it, but that's a question for another time. The company's policies have changed over time, and the...

My SIG P239 has rusted from the day I got it. Hell, it was shipped to me (admittedly used) with rust on it. It's merely superficial and easy to get rid of, but like the OP I am curious about what it is about SIG weapons that causes this to happen. It's a nice weapon and it shoots beautifully...

UPDATE: The rifle range, not unexpectedly, is closed. What is unexpected, but shouldn't have been, is that the pistol range is also closed. They are close but not connected, and yet they have taken down the target backboards. I don't expect that they will be reopening these ranges. They had...

That is the range I go to as well, albeit the pistol range most of the time. I would say that you need to be careful about carrying a concealed weapon there as it is posted that you're not supposed to do so, though. The lesson? when you're going downrange to the long-range target areas, bring...

Breyer's dissent was about what I expected. It amounts to "Heller was wrong, the 2nd is still about the militia, and so this case is wrong too". Seriously, his dissent is positively littered with the usage of the word "militia" early on. Both he and Stevens assert that this decision will...

They crushed even the mere idea of revisiting Slaughter-House, though. And that's a damn shame. Oh, well. It's still a win. Just not the right way, if you ask me.

I would suspect the opposite. The plastic will eventually degrade to the point where it becomes too brittle to shoot without breaking.

You should have been confident before. For SCOTUS to give an adverse result in McDonald it would require them to essentially reverse their position from Heller, and something like that happening so soon after the decision was made would wreck their credibility, and credibility is all they have...

Wait, what? OK, all joking aside, as much as I dislike the Beretta I do think it is a quite attractive weapon.

Fair enough.

Ridiculously good shooting. That is better than I typically do, and I'm not bad. Enjoy your carry permit.

If I may, in what way is it that much better? They both fire the same round in approximately the same fashion. I'm not such a troglodyte that I can't understand the differences between weapons. For instance, my Kimber has a much better trigger pull than any of my other weapons, and I certainly...

I don't hate Pythons, I've simply never had the privilege of owning one as they are not very affordable for someone of modest means like myself. Therefore my opinion on them is somewhat ambivalent in the same way that I don't wax rhapsodic about a BMW when all I've ever owned is a Chevrolet...

You've already taken the plunge on purchasing one, so this advice comes too late (as usual), but the most important thing is that you're completely comfortable with the function of the weapon. Simply put, if you're not comfortable with carrying it cocked and locked you shouldn't carry it.

As has been said already, the Mark IIIs are a cast-iron pain in the ass to take down the first time you try, even more so than the Mark IIs, due to the necessity of removing and reinserting the magazine numerous times during the process. This is easily fixed in numerous ways if it bothers you...

I can't think of a weapon that comes closer to your requirements than the Springfield XD.

And thus you have the irony of two laws (the Gun Control Act of 1968 and the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1993) having the unintentional effect of prompting handgun manufacturers to make smaller weapons in larger calibers. Think about it: if a manufacturer cannot import a...

Ammunition availability is improving, but it is still not what it was a few years ago. Most unnerving, places like Bass Pro still have almost completely empty shelves. If Wal-Mart can get it in, why can't Bass Pro? I'll be convinced that it's over when I can walk into a store and buy a box of...
