I mailed off my NFA Trust paperwork for my MAC-10 and it's suppressor on July 5, 2016. The MAC's came in today and the suppressor had to be resubmitted due to the post mark on it being after the cut off. So, pretty much a year and two weeks.

Owner's manuals tell you everything you need to know for the safe handling, loading, unloading, disassembly, cleaning, and lubrication of the firearm. I read them on every new gun I purchase or sell. I also highly encourage customers to read the manual, specifically any red letter statements...

The proposed changes to NFA trusts, finally got me off the fence and bought three suppressors and two SBRs. I'm also considering a few more suppressors and maybe a couple more SBRs and an SBS, before the change. I like the trust, due to my niece not having to submit and pay for a new tax...

The funny part is that people think THEY will be overlooked or ignored if there is no "official" paperwork on guns or gold. There was no paperwork for gold before the government announced it had to be turned in for what they said it was worth at that moment. They did announce stiff fines and...

I've had people come to the gunshop I work at and expect to walk out with a gun, without filling out a form, if they pay in cash. Some people are so afraid that the goberment is going to kick in their door and drag them off to a FEMA camp in the near future for filling out a 4473, even though...

Twice, I've had people come into the shop I work at to buy a cheapo RG or it's equal because they had their house broken into for a second time and the money they were saving to buy a decent handgun was stolen. I've also heard on many occasions and read on many gun forums to "save up your money...

I love the "optional background check" provision. Although, I didn't see mention of any fee involved, one article did mention a $100,000 earmark for the program. I love the idea of being able to run a background check on a buyer who I do not personally know without going to an FFL, logging it...

The M9 bayonet is the worst. As a unit armorer, I've had to code out over a dozen due to the short, flat tang. They snap off at the hilt or at the wire cutter hole. The blade is too thick for any serious stabbing attempt, and you have the hardest time getting even a decent edge on the blade...

I love my Ruger also. I already have over 20 ARs of various makes and calibers, but when I was shown the Ruger I was truly impressed. I paid right at $660 after tax for a new AR-15 that is solid as a rock and I absolutely love the screw type delta ring over the traditional spring type. In...

I plan on catching up buying the minimum number of mags for pistols to feel comfortable. After inventorying them all a few days ago, I'm 67 mags short, which isn't too bad considering that's at 5 mags per handgun for over 100 handguns. Unfortunately, those 67 mags are going to cost $24-40...

I carry every day I walk out the door. Wallet in my left back pocket and Keltec .32acp in my right back pocket. Also, if need be I keep a 1911 and .357mag loaded in the truck at all times. As others have said, most of my friends and family do not carry every day, and a few I know, only got...

I just keep a Writeinrain notebook with all the make, model, and serial number of each firearm, along with the same info on optics or other ancillary equipment attached. I do try to keep it organized by rifle, pistol, or shotgun and by manufacturer as possible. I also keep a log of all...

I still remember the 94' AWB, and try to have 5 per handgun and 10-12 per rifle. I also tend to rummage through boxes of random mags at pawn shops, gunshows, etc... as I come across them looking for a good deal on quality mags mixed in with junk. I even buy mags when I come across a good deal...

I also think that this is at most a states' right issue, and before you jump all over me, if New York state wanted to outlaw all magazines over ten rounds in the country due to their magazine round limits everyone would be shouting about how it's every states' right to determine how many rounds...

Once again we (the gun community) are portrayed as unfeeling monsters for not offering condolences immediately after the event, even though you know we would be called unfeeling monsters for even showing our face so soon afterwards.

I use an EOTECH with a magnifier with my SCAR 17, and haven't had any problems with it holding zero with about 600 rounds of S.African surplus through it.

The lowest I've seen DSA paratrooper rifles was about 10 years ago when Shotgun News had an ad for DSA Paracongo FALs for $1650. I ordered one right away and still have it.

The gun ban crowd likes to use these catch words "rational", "reasonable", "common sense"; because if you don't go along with their plans you are not rational, or being unreasonable, or you don't have common sense.

I haven't gone night shooting since the Army, other than the occasional skunk or opossum that needs dealt with. I try to be a good neighbor and restrict my gunfire to daylight hours. There is a reason we say we own the night in the Infantry. Most tactical training was done in the dead of...

I've fired just over 4,000 rounds so far in my AR's this year, but I'll be hard pressed to make it to 5,000 before the year ends due to buying a house. Of those rounds 1k each was 9mm, 5.45x39, and 7.62x39. The rest were .308, .223, 300blk, 5.7, and .22lr. I'm on my 24th AR now, but 1/3 are...
