    Rifle Holster?

    Seven, did that Gerber knife have a molle sheath, or did you have to modify it? - SC

    A video about the Taurus Safety Flaw

    As a knowledgeable firearm owner, you should never put any faith in a mechanical safety. That being said, the sad reality is that there is a fair amount of gun owners who do not practice as they should and purchase affordable firearms like this solely to keep in a nightstand until needed. Those...

    Pistol- caliber carbines

    Has anyone tried a MecTec carbine conversion in .357 Sig? IMO that cartridge really bridges the gap between a pistol cartridge and a small rifle cartridge very well. I'm surprised that more PCC manufacturers don't offer that chambering. SC

    NICS Question

    Does the NICS stay open on Holidays? ie, observed Veterans day, ie...today? I'm not sure, and would rather look foolish to you guys, rather than walk into the shop and look foolish to them. :) THANKS

    Grips for Improved I-Frame

    Old revolvers aren't exactly my bailiwick, but somehow I got roped into working on and old S&W Model 30. Hammer wouldn't stay back and dbl action trigger would bind up. Took the side plate off and it looked like someone had filled the action with superglue. The guy used about 50 years of WD-40...

    gun shops and ranges in southwest VA?

    Call Whitetail Outfitters at 381-9790 and talk to Darrell. He'll order whatever you want, and try hard to beat any other prices. I wouldn't by from anywhere else around here. His shop is on Route 8 out towards Riner. Should take you about 20-25 minutes from campus. -SC

    comfortable driving w/ concealed gun?

    Strong side hip (or 4 o'clock, as others call it) is the only way to carry a full size auto. It is comfortable to drive with everyday. Xdraw and s.o.b. are all bad news. If you carry a small frame auto or snubbie, you then have the option of pocket carry, which I also recommend to students. - SC

    For safety, get rid of guns

    I just threw up a little in my mouth after reading that crap. I just love the way she conveniently writes off the sick and elderly at the beginning, and doesn't explain what to do about them. Obviously, they aren't worthy of the right of protecting themselves. I also love the way she...

    Road Rage and Handguns

    Thanks for the post Vern. I am going to print your letter out and pass this out at our next Personal Protection course. Your case is an excellent example of the responsibility that you undertake when you choose to carry a firearm for self defense. It also drives home the fact that those of us...

    Pro-gun Phrases

    You said it yourself "Guns don't cause violence". You might get something wittier, but you can't get much more direct than that brother. - SC

    School lockdowns - bad idea

    Is this kind of along the same train of though that I teach in our Personal Protection class about home defense and the use of a saferoom? Oh wait, in a saferoom you are supposed to have your firearm and ammunition in there (if you don't have it with you allready) and a means to communicate...

    Cho and gunboards

    Hey Karz10, I would like to see that reference to the 33 rnd mags. The only thing I can find on the magazine capacity is an article that was printed 2 days ago that says... "...Cho reloaded several times, using 15-round magazines for the Glock and 10-round magazines for the Walther...

    Cho and gunboards

    MDAO - this article written today, states the Walther .22 was purchased from a pawn shop on February 9th and the Glock 9mm on March 12 from Roanoke Firearms. This leaves one month for him practice and practice. However, mid-late February was nasty cold here, and there aren't too many indoor...

    How easy is it to actually take away a firearm?

    I just love people who say that there is no need for a firearm in self defense. They always say that they can learn a martial art and defend themselves. I say bullcrap! That takes a level of dedication that very few people are able to maintain. Just learning a few moves and holds one...

    Cho and gunboards

    Looking at the way he was holding the firearms in the pictures they released last night and knowing now that he fashioned his "video manifesto" after some low-budget violent bloodbath movie, I would say he learned most of his firearms knowledge from the movies. It was obvious that he had no...

    Has anyone heard from VA Tech area ranges?

    I would like to unequivocally state that the accused shooter has spent no time at the Shawnee Hunt Club's private range, nor does the shooter have anything to do with our organization. He is not a member, never has been a member and as far as the club officers know, he doesn't even know any of...

    VA CCW list published by Roanoke Times 3/11

    Where do I get dessicant?

    Go to your local pharmacy and ask them if they'll throw them in a bag for you. The larger pharmacies go thru them fast enough to fill up a grocery bag in a week and most of the ones I have on retainer are more than happy to have something to do with the packages instead of just throwing them...

    Ported Barrel Effects

    If you are shooting self defense loads out of a ported barrel, you're going to have a good muzzle flash out of the ports. You probably won't notice it during the day, it looks cool at dusk, but at night in a self defense situation, one aimed shot puts the flash right in your sight picture and...
