    Hi Point Carbine. California legal?

    After doing some research I decided that I want to try one. Cheap gun, cheaper ammo, and a pistol grip.:D Many people who have them claim that they are reliable and accurate enough for SD/Range use, but are they legal to buy in Ca. I know the rules concerning AR rifles in Ca, but can't seem...

    I'm buying my first handgun soon. A 357 double action revolver. I plan on spending a lot of time at the range with this gun, and will use as much 357 as I will 38+p, in the beginning. A couple days ago my local gun shop had a couple s&w 28-2's, and I fell for the four inch barrel with the...
