Once I find a local gun shop that has 10/22's in stock (right now KTP and Coyote Creek are closed due to the pandemic), i'll be getting another 10/22 to have for a backup rifle, most likely one of the older classic models, as the old ones seem like they're just built better, that way if another...

Ironically, Coyote Creek outfitters in Rochester NH has had its gates shut for the past week, and the Maine governor has determined Kittery Trading Post as “non-essential”....

And her options for buying a firearm just temporarily got a lot smaller, as the Maine governor has determined that Kittery Trading Post is a “nonessential” retail establishment and must obey the temporary shutdown in Maine, biggest factor apparently was a larger percentage of New York and...

The main issue here, is that she doesn’t seem to have a sense of urgency about getting properly armed and into a defensive mindset, she truly believes in the honesty of people, and I hope against all hope she is proven right, but we all know how quickly things can go bad when the veneer of...

She’s made her decision and can’t be swayed now, she’s going with either the 28 or 20 gauge single shot, I tried to get her to go with my 10/22, but she likes the 28g, she’s shot it before and does well with it, no it doesn’t have the capacity of the 10/22, But she’s familiar with the manual of...

They’d find the “upper” world far too appealing, even if they could figure out the Three Seashells... Idiocracy shows where we’re headed far too effectively as well, plus they’d all end up wanting a Starbucks anyway...

I’d love for her to try the CZ again, but she just has no interest in it, she says it’s a nice gun, but it’s too heavy for her and she has difficulty working the slide, even with your solution, believe me, I’ve tried my devious plan is to hook her in with a 10/22, simple, friendly and...

as stated up thread, she has limited hand strength to rack the slide, she’s tried both the CZ and S&W, she can barely budge the Shield, and can do the CZ with difficulty by holding the slide still and pushing the lower to rack it she’s not looking for a concealed carry weapon, but for a home...

to clarify, both shotguns are single shot break action, hammer fired guns, also, the local gun shop (Kittery Trading Post) is pretty picked over both ammo and gun wise, I called this afternoon, and all they have for ammo for the 20/28 is birdshot (#7-#9) plus there’s the NICS delays and lack of...

She’s shot them all except the 9mm’s, and she’s more comfortable with the .22’s, she’s willing to defend her life, she was a high school teacher and said she would have volunteered to be an armed teacher if necessary. she wants something light and compact, something easy to handle as stated...

My mother (she’s in her mid 70’s and healthy as a horse) is taking the whole pandemic issue reasonably seriously, she’s sheltering in place and social distancing, but her one deficiency is her lack of a defensive firearm, she jokingly says she’ll be okay with her BB gun and crowbar she lives in...

I don’t exactly hide the fact that I’m a firearm owner, but I don’t flaunt it either, it is what it is... my immediate neighbors don’t know I’m a firearm owner and they don’t need to know, as it wouldn’t change anything, heck, there are times I’ve given them rides to go grocery shopping...

It wasn't a purchase, actually a firearm Mom found in Dad's dresser drawer after he passed away, an old Iver Johnson "Safety" .32 top break pistol, used black powder .32 cartridges, the trigger felt like it was wrapped in gravel and used sandpaper as a lubricant, it made a stock Ruger 10/22...

I've gone through a few collect/sell cycles, when cash flow was better, then I suffered some financial hardship that necessitated paring down the "accumulation" as it really wasn't a collection per-se, it was just an assortment of "good deals" or "that'd be neat to own" unfortunately, i'm back...

Mom's been mulling over that encounter, and a few of her friends have told her similar recommendations to mine, be more aware of what's going on around her, she's also been considering picking up a handgun once she sells the family farm** and moves into her next little home, as the next house...

Dover NH isn’t exactly a hotbed of criminal activity, but it does have “bad areas” like every large town, this particular grocery store is in the “good” area, in the downtown/Main Street business district, it’s been there for decades and the people are generally decent. Mom is in far better...

The Samaritan thought the scumbag was a potential purse snatcher, my gut instincts were screaming *mugger*, hence why I got out of the car and made my presence known, and that I was fully aware of him, I never broke visual contact with him, I let him know, through *MY* body language that I knew...

Mom and I were out grocery shopping this evening, in a small, southern NH town near the seacoast (Dover), and just experienced a situation that had the *potential* to go bad, but thankfully it didn't, thanks to a nice vigilant couple, and myself... I'm recuperating from a broken ankle from a...

I was a good boy tonight, I went in fully intending to buy either the 42 or 43, depending on how pocket carry friendly they were ( my full size jeans pocket can almost completely swallow my CZ 75b), so it surprised me when neither one was any more pocket carry friendly than my CZ So, needless...

Right now the 42 is in the lead, as it fills a niche currently unoccupied, the micro carry/EDC Any things in particular to look for on a used 42, I’ve read early models were fussy, and the only difference between this used 42 and a new 42 are the used one has tritium night sights and is $25...
