    What is going on with guns

    Elkins45: Plenty of US gun owners seem to be afraid of their own shadows. They already seem to have capitulated in the psychological “war”. 88 million gun owners, with so many now apparently afraid to sell a few personal guns- and usually without any profit.

    What is going on with guns

    The supposedly new “law” will Not even Apply…for a few more months. Despite pages of vague wording, an Exception Seems to Allow you to sell guns from a private collection, or you can also sell the entire collection—-without needing to be an FFL. I read this paragraph, but not the entire...

    Finally in the club!

    JEBruns: Congrats. And now at least you might have a place to better make use of any trip to the Wannemacher Show in Tulsa? You've probably been much more than I have (just once). Whatever the situation, you certainly have a shorter drive than we do on the eastern edge of the Memphis area.

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    Belted 7.62 x 51: 500 rds. Not my first time with this FN (true Belgian🇧🇪) belted ammo. Used in the original FN FAL rifles etc. With a third FAL rifle now shipping, I’ve sold 2,000 rds. of 7.62x39 ammo to a friend, simply in order to have a better reserve of .308/7.62 NATO...

    What did you shoot today?

    SAR-4800 from Brazil. I don't make holes in paper. That's no fun, especially with today's .308 ammo costs of .73-.80 (or more) per round...Before taxes etc. The target is a large, empty detergent jug hanging at the Bottom of a high riverbank (by a rope from a stick) at 100-120 yards. It’s a...

    Another bite at the apple?

    Another German-made commercial Sig P225 and a (Czech) CZ-83. This P225 is Not the same gun as the P6: the 225 has a much lighter (stock) DA pull.

    Scheels Sporting Goods

    People who shop at Dick’s are supporting the anti-gun movement. It’s always a personal decision. Show Me: I’ve had no reason to go into Bass Pro for years. How and around When were they anti-gun?

    how did it start for you?

    Watching these guys. For the young people, the tv series Combat; my age was 7 or 8 iirc. Episodes on Youtube seem to be free. We only had three tv channels in the 60's. "Social media" was going outside to play with neighbors. Nobody we knew hid inside.. Why did I lose or break my plastic...

    Ruger Mini Thirty. On the fence.

    CoalCrackerAL: Well, as your Mini-30 is "minute of clay pigeon at 100 yards", for 200 yards just put four pigeons together into a tight square. It really won't matter and you will have four times as many targets. Luckily there isn't a drone 🛸 flying overhead which will report us if we need...

    Not Quite a Convert But...

    Howland937: The paranoia I brought up refers to people killing family members without asking "Is that you?" or even turning on a light by a hallway. The guy's daughter was said to have walked very quietly down the dark hallway because she didn't want to wake anybody up.

    Not Quite a Convert But...

    A guy’s daughter came i to town a day early —but at night— and as the daughter quietly crept down the hallway; the father didn’t ask who it was, and with No lights switched on he killed her. A different guy, much younger had assumed that his fiancée simply Could Not be opening the door from the...

    Mini 30 Magazines - Which ones?

    To risk Unreliability with almost any type of gun, “go cheap”. Is it worth it, to avoid paying extra for an OEM mag?. Let’s ponder the reasons -why- OEM mags are usually -able- to ‘command’ higher prices than aftermarket brands. Some of us prefer “peace of mind”.

    Gun show loophole?

    Dogtown tom : Roger that. I only meant trace after finding a gun, Not track, like the near-useless tracking of my Postal Money Order which arrived days late (for a FAL rifle).

    Open Carry in a Traffic Stop

    Good luck with open carry. As always, that's a personal decision.

    Have you purchased anything gun related in the last three days?

    A word of advice: due to Postal Money Orders (with expedited $9.00 service+"tracking") now requiring an unknown number of days or weeks to reach a seller, my suggestion is for sellers to have an electronic payment system if no credit card system is possible. The gent who sold me the StG on...

    What's your preferred every day carry?

    I seldom carry any more, but the last few years it has been the 100% German Sig P225, the commercial version which was the foundation for the German police/federal (Bundes-) P6. The commercial 225 has a much lighter Stock DA trigger than any P6. I owned a previous P225, pair of P6 and pair of...

    Gun show loophole?

    Elkins45: Yes. You have the Big Picture. Folks: Remember that millions of gun owners (over 300 million guns) reside in the US and a huge number sometimes sell 2-3 guns. There is nothing illegal about this. The comments from Asparagus Head🥦 were created by the Puppet Masters out of Election...

    Gun show loophole?

    As far as Gun show sellers still being able to offer several guns on their tables: Several years ago the Senate didn’t even want to vote on UBC/ Univ. background checks. At that the “experts” predicted that The Sky Would Fall, immediately. Unless private sellers at gun shows live in the...

    How Much Land to Shoot On?

    What concerns many people can be in regard to guests (when the owner might not be present) who are either new shooters or possibly careless types. For example a son invites a buddy who you don't know etc. And Northerners who move into their first actual rural land--and it's down South! 🙃...
