When I was a kid back in the mid 70s, I got a shotgun for Christmas. I think it was a Springfield, but I'm not sure. It was a bolt action 12Ga. with a 3 round detachable mag. It had a long barrel, 28" probably and a full choke I think. Gramps and I called it my goose gun, though I never hunted...

Not sure what to think, but I do think I'll avoid this shop. I didn't know The Shootist was still open, having called thier listed number once only to get no answer and no recorded message. http://www.denverpost.com/headlines/ci_9925949

Chinese counter terrorist teams got the right idea... 'cause there ain't no slack in a fast attack! http://www.danwei.org/front_page_of_the_day/counter_terrorist_polices_on_s.php

I don't know what kind of rifle this is in the pic, but thats a criminal in the act of holding up a Circle K. The same guys are suspected of shooting up a couple of sheriffs cars and hitting a deputy in the arm last night. The really bad news is they got away...

Just bought a new RRA 16” mid length AR. I went to the toy store thinking I would pick up a stripped lower and start from there, but when I saw this rifle with the desired two stage trigger at a good price I whipped out my credit card. I really like this new rifle, even better than my 20” H-BAR...

Here's a rather lengthy and somewhat well balanced article about concealed weapons and guns in general in today's Denver Post. Copy and past of course... http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_9138675 EDIT: the URL has already changed once, if it happens again the link should take you...

Homeowner struglles with intruder over rifle, then shoots with BU gun, then spends two days in jail. The videos are worth a look Video Detailed video

I've been meaning to post some 5 shot groups from my NRA Mini 14 for a while now, but to be honest the Ruger hasn't been out of the safe much since I bought my Bushmaster. The little rubber rifle finally got to see some range time yesterday though, I took her with me to sight in my LTR in...

Gramps passed away a little over a year ago, now Gramma wants to sell his rifles for some much needed cash. I can take them to Bass Pro Shops and have them appraised for free but I thought I might run them past the experienced minds at THR first. I was thinking I might be better off offering...

Happy Easter! Today's Big 5 newspaper insert lists a Marlin .30-.30 lever action rifle for $399. The rest of the ad says 20” barrel, wood stock, and most important to me... “Or choose a straight stock .357 magnum or .44 magnum". I don't know much about these, but I've always wanted a lever...

Sound like a ridiculous question... then take a look at this video. This one is intended to be a military pack horse but it's probably the single scariest thing I've ever seen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBCVprX0WnY How long before bag guys have robots working for them? How does the...

I just did something that may be a little foolish, I paid $799 for a blued Mini 14 with a 16” barrel. I went half planning to get a Mini 14 but this NRA edition was just an expensive impulse buy. It comes with two 20 round mags and a pair of factory scope mounts so that softens the blow a...

http://dvice.com/archives/2008/03/menacing_compre.php New patent on a CO2 powered hypodermic knife blade. Sounds really nasty to me, I think I'd rather be shot than inflated...

Another cautionary tale http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_8218462

Since a .38 and a .357 are supposedly the same size, and can be fired out of the same .357 chamber and barrel, why the difference in the numbers? Are they really the same diameter? .357” is definitely smaller than .38”. What about .44 and .45, the difference here is smaller than the...

The debate raging in Denver today is whether or not a .44 magnum would travel 300 yards with enough remaining energy to pass through an exterior wall then kill 2 people. Personally, (though I'm no expert) I think it could, but I don't think it did. There doesn't seem to be any mention of a...

We had a shooting shortly after midnight in Denver. One round supposedly fired at a street light went through the exterior wall of a home, then through a 48yo womans head, then into the side of an 11yo girl. Both are dead and a 25yo murderous dumbass has been arrested...

The Tanner gun show is this weekend in Denver. I'm looking for a specific handgun (CZ75BD) and am hoping I can find one at a good price at this show. But I'm wondering, do the vendors at these shows take plastic? Or will I need to bring cash? I haven't bought a gun at a show in 15 years, and...

After hearing so much good stuff about them here and elsewhere, I've decided I want to buy a CZ75. I really want a BD with a decocker but Sportsman's Warehouse has 75Bs in stock for $419, and I cant find a BD anywhere locally at any price. The pistol would never be carried cocked and...

Pardon my ignorance, but is there supposed to be locktite or something else in the rear sight dovetail on my FNP-9? I purchased a set of night sites for my FNP and had them installed by a respected local smith. After I picked the gun up I took it to a nearby range to try it out with 50 rounds...
