Hey everyone, we need a little help here. Florida is in a battle to open up some of our colleges to LEGAL CCW holders. Of course Everytown for Gun Ignorance is making a stand here as well and fighting us under threat of "angry mob-ness". Please help by shooting an email to some of our House...

I was wondering if anyone knew if Marlin changed the factory barrels on the new 39a's? I was walking through the store yesterday (and of course I check out the Lever Actions) and I saw a newer 39a. I picked it up and it felt lighter than the one I purcahsed about 5 years ago. I looked...

Hey guys, I know how popular the 642 and other bobbed hammers are for concealed carry because they do not snag. I like to keep my revolver hammers exposed. But I have honestly never had a snag on the hammer to any clothing during a draw. Even after practicing many different carry...

Hey all, I was looking for some information on the Smith and Wesson model 19 variations. I know that the Dash -2 through the Dash -4 had the pinned and recessed barrels as well as non MIM parts. But I didnt know if all of the model 19-5's and onwards had these features. What model...

Hey guys, I was looking at a Model 66 today. 2.5inch barrel. But I noticed that it might have gotten dropped by the previous owner. There are some nicks towards the underside of the muzzle. Not terrible deep but it will need some possible sanding to remove (if I even wanted to have...

Hey everyone, I wanted to see how the recoil on a 638/642. I know it is subjective and hard to gauge, but I am having trouble finding one to try out before I buy. With regular .38 (not +P). Is it enoyable to shoot or a bear after a few hundred rounds? I have the opportunity to pick...

Sorry all I had to share this. I didnt want to hijack the thread that sent me to this site in the revolver forum. Some inaccuracies, but it was to hillairous to keep to myself: "Therefore, a shotgun, perhaps a 12-gauge, is probably the best gun for a man. It is big and powerful, thus...

Hey does anyone here have a patent number readily for the Bianchi speedstrips? I am doing some reasearch and want to check something. I wont be able to head to the gunshop until Tuesday but would like to start some research. Thanks! Vic

Firstly I think it is mindboggling that a home invader or their families can sue you or your home insurance company for defending yourself after a SD/HI shooting. But I always wondered if you are involved in a home invasion/self defense shooting, can you sue the bad guy/their family...

Hey all, I wanted to see what other people feel about this practice. I recently was shopping arround for a handgun. I like to look at a lot of different places for my firearms. There is this one gunshop that had a large selection, but when I asked to see a particular firearm, the prices...

Hey all, This is just a blind poll. Yes I have, No I have not. It is not meant to be a thread to argue 12ga vs 20 ga. (but it might wind up that way anyways). I was shooting with my friend who is a huge 12ga for everything man. And I had my 20ga. He was harping on me about it and I...

Hi all, I havent purchased a revolver in about 8 years. I have been itching to get a new one. I know I wanted a .38 Probably a .38 +P. My question is if revolver prices have gone crazy lately like with ARs, Ak's, SKS's, semis etc. Now I know that prices have gone up since 8 years ago but...

Lever action fans, "Shooting Gallery" show today on the Outdoors Network is focusing on lever actions and self defense weapons. I don't know if it is new or not but it looks like it was produced in 2009. Just a heads up for any LA fans.

Hello friends, I have some questions and figure this would be a great place to ask for help. I am thinking about getting an 870 for various purposes. Some bird shooting and HD. Here are the questions though: What is the difference between an 870 and 870 express? If it is an 870...

OK the show "Time Warp" on Discovery channel is showing 5000 frames a second HD footage of a 30-06 rifle shooting and into various body armors. I would post a link but its not online yet. In the footage you can even see the sound barrier waves as the bullet leaves the barrel. The muzzle...

Going to be hard to keep this one on the high road, but maybe it can remind everyone that saftey should always be NUMBER ONE PRIORITY when shooting any type of firearm. But a child lost control of a fully automatic Uzi at a gun show and killed himself. I guess he had both an instructor and...

Hello everyone, I have a question about home defense and maybe altering my strategies/firearms for a home defense shooting. I have a 1500 sq foot house. Average size house and rooms. I also have a son who is only one and a half. I was thinking about something after my last trip to the...

Hello everyone, I have a question about hunting for food in emergency situations. I have never hunted a deer or buck before. Never tracked an animal. With these conditions in mind, if a scenario came about where I had to shoot a deer/moose/elk to feed my family what would be the best...

I read this on CNN and I remember articles about this being a possiblity a decade ago. Now it looks like its comming close to completion. Just amazing possibilities. It is a suit that can reflect light in a way to make a person seem transparent. Able to adapt to any camo background...

Hey everyone. My friends and I have having a conflict about what type of rifle this woman purchased for HD after some people tried to break into her home. The video is about some crooks breaking into a home but didnt get through. The owner got a rifle for the next time it happens. The...
