    private pilot, carry on airport

    I understand that, aside from state statutes, there's nothing preventing someone from legally carrying while flying a private plane, and while on the airport property. This is regarding airports where you don't need to go through security. Can anyone chime in one way or the other?

    Get in the bin?

    I'm watching "I survived" with my wife, and there's a 15 year old girl who was convinced a gun point to go from her front door to the BGs car, and get into a big plastic bin in the back. I commented that it's never a good idea to go from a situation where you're in the middle of a...

    Sight question

    I have a Walther P99, and I've finally figured out what makes me so uncomfortable with the sights. . . See how the opening on the rear sight doesn't allow for you to see the full front dot when it's aligned with the 2 rear dots. In other words, look at the 2 rear dots, and then between...

    How do clips work?

    I've tried looking at the schematics and can't quite figure it out. . . and my google-fu is lacking today. How do clips work? Is there something that advances the round upward after each shot?

    Nu Finish

    How do you add it without it painting the cases with mud green spots? I've tried letting it "tumble in" while there's no cases in the tumbler for a while, but it doesn't seem to fully mix in. Help!

    Loads for different bullet types

    This might be a really novice question, but something I never put much thought into before now. Looking through load data, there are differences between FMJ, jacketed HP, plated, etc. Why? Also, I'm loading some Frontier "CMJ cast". Should these be treated any differently than than...

    I'm having an issue with my lee progressive. When the case slider is pushing a new case into the holder, the bottom flips out and fails to enter the shell plate. What did I do wrong? Help!

    Old Bridge Rifle & Pistol Club

    My mother just let me know she's interested in learning to shoot, and is from the central jersey area. I know that many gun clubs have a really macho, "big man" culture to them (Ray's shop was the WORST), and I'm looking to avoid that. Does anyone here have personal experience with the Old...

    Revolver newbie

    I'm thinking about getting a revolver for my wife, with the intention of plinking and conceal carry. I guess the important things I'm looking for is something that will be shootable at the range (in other words, I've heard that scandium snubbies are not fun to shoot) but still concealable...

    NRA certified pistol instructor, qualifications

    I'm looking to 1) get up to designated qualifications in pistol and rifle, and 2) maybe becoming an instructor for both a) How hard is it to do these? I had heard that qualifications were relatively easy for the NRA. I'm a decent shot but by no means an expert, and don't have competition...

    Collective right

    I've tried looking this up, but it's just not meshing for me. Can someone explain collective vs individual right? And is a "civil right" mutually exclusive from the other two? Thanks

    First revolver, suggestions?

    I'm a newbie as far as revolvers go, and I'm looking for some suggestions. I'm looking for something as a carry / backup gun in 357. I'd guess that a 6 shot would be better than 5? My priorities are: Carryability (would it possible to put ANYTHING on my ankle that wouldn't print?) but still...

    VA Tech:school carry

    Quick questions re: the VA Tech shooting: Was concealed carry allowed on the campus for students when the shooting occurred? Also, is concealed carry permitted on colleges anywhere? (sorry, I'm sure this is answered already, but I'm not having any luck w/ searching)

    Doh, Lee 1000, watch what you lube!

    So, I stumbled upon another example of things NOT to do. I keep a pie tin of felix's lube sitting on the table for whatever needs a little greasing. I've been running tumbled brass through my Lee 1000 with just the deprimer, sizer, and expander, and decided to lube up the slide between the tube...

    I'm shooting my cast .40 cal bullets/boolits, and I'm just about done with my case of WSF. I'm relatively new and don't know a whole lot about powder selection. . . any suggestions?

    Lee Progressive 1000 -> turret?

    Hello, I have a Lee Progressive 1000, and was wondering if it can be modified to act as a turret press? I'd like to be able to deprime a bunch of rounds without spinning them into the next position. Any ideas to make this happen (temporarily?)
