    Is this group sketchy/irresponsible in your view?

    A few weeks ago I received an email for a free raffle entry for a Barrett 50 Cal giveaway. The wording was strange and frankly I thought somewhat irresponsible, saying (paraphrasing) "having this weapon would give you more firepower than all your friends gun collections combined. Also it is the...

    Pre-Lock on a S&W 617?

    There is a 10 shot S&W 617 - 22LR I am interested in, and it says it is a "pre-lock model". Another one I am looking to possibly buy is one that says they "removed the internal locking device, but can replace it if the buyer so desires". So what is this lock they refer to, it's purpose and...

    Is the WWP pro or anti ?

    I was told a few months back that the Wounded Warrior Project (a charity that I've given to) was anti-gun/2A in some way. I have not been able to confirm this or not, so I am in a quandary as to whether to continue to support them or not. Anyone here know for certain either way?

    What hoops must a regular citizen in NY jump through to buy an semi-auto shotgun in a private face to face sale?

    For anyone who knows?

    I assume it varies from state to state, but my state allows concealed carry with a license. However open carry is not an option. Now my state is on most others for being reciprocal in that I can carry in those states(with exceptions based on that states more stringent requirements), and other...

    Idea to turn public opinion in favor of firearms

    I believe that the average American does not think too much about guns in their daily lives. Some even own guns and generally support the 2A, but that is as far as it goes. So when I hear people being freaked out about regular citizens owning certain types of guns, it gets me to wonder why...

    Help me find a post in GGD

    I thought I had quoted a post of a fellow poster, but in doing a search I might not have. During a 2A discussion, they essentially listed a good half dozen or more quotes from different Founding Fathers, many taken from the Federalist Papers regarding why the 2A was created. There was at...

    Restoring a 1st Gen Cobra .38 Special

    I have one and have tried to look into different options to have it brought back to life. However since it has an alloy/aluminum frame, several places I inquired with said they will not deal with it due to the frame. So what are my options that will not be too expensive?

    Hearing protection

    I'd like to know why some people swear by electronic muffs, yet they typically have lower(in some cases MUCH lower) db protection ratings? I own several forms of hearing protection, such as Silenco Magnums with a 29 NRR rating. Yet I read about people using electronic muffs like Howard...

    Best larger capacity .22

    I have been wanting to buy a .22 revolver with a greater capacity for some time now. The reason is obvious from a cost standpoint while still practicing with a double action revolver. I have therefore been looking to buy a Taurus 94 which seems reasonably priced and has 9 shots. I was also...

    Gun owner database already being used for confiscation in CA

    This is an interesting subject because I just watched a show on CNN the other day about gun confiscation in CA. The premise is that a special unit of the state cross references legal gun owners with people who have become ineligible to own their firearms. The piece is made to look like a good...

    Shipping a gun to yourself out of state?

    A long gun is being gifted to me as a present (or at least I think it is) out of state. I will fly and be there for several days. Now I could buy a hard lockable case and check it, but that will involve not only the cost of the case, but also an extra $25 for an extra checked bag fee. So I was...

    Ruger extra capacity mags?

    I have only seen the 10 round capacity magazines for a Ruger Mark III .22lr and was wondering if anyone made an aftermarket magazine with greater capacity? TIA

    Moss SPX vs. Rem 1100 Tactical

    I was talking with a shotgun clay shooting champ today, and he had a distinct recommendation between the two. For a tactical semi-auto, which one is better, and why?

    Safety in private FTF gun purchases

    I have never even had a hint of a problem regarding face to face deals, yet I have wondered what could potentially go wrong. So tonight while watching a show called The First 48, which is about actual homicide investigations, it did not come as a big shock to see that a gun deal went bad...

    Hawaii 5-0 speed loading intro scene

    I am referring to the original (real) Hawaii 5-0 with Jack Lord. In the opening there is a section where someone is loading a revolver by spinning the cylinder and putting in bullets. I remember for fun I tried to do it like the TV show but never seemed to get the timing right. Watch this...

    RV's/Motor Homes & Guns

    I suspect the laws vary from state to state, but if someone were to have an RV as their actual home, do the same laws that apply to guns in ones home apply? Another words driving in a car has certain restrictions about transporting guns(loaded vs. unloaded, accessible vs. locked away or two...
