    Safariland Ate my Sig!

    I got two new holsters recently. A Safariland 6377 for my M&P and a 6378 for my 229r. The M&P works ever so nicely in the first. Compared to a thumb strap or the Blackhawk finger button, I just love how the ALS lock works. Working it feels more natural than the BH CQC latch, and there's no...

    Rem 700 -- threading options?

    I've got a 700p that I want threaded for a suppressor. Normally I'd just have a smith cut it down a few inches (currently 26) and re-crown & thread. The issue - I've read some less than glowing comments on the quality of rem factory barrels, even on the P models. This is compounded by a...

    According to an article on CNN.com a SC house subcommittee passed a measure that would allow CCW on school property. Any SC residents? Anyone sending their kid ot a SC college? Being interested parties, we need to let the appropriate SC lawmakers know that we support this measure. Convincing...

    Need 10/22 measurements

    I need some measurements from a 10/22 with various types of folding stocks. (getting numbers to send the ATF and I don't own a stock yet) I'm curious about the Ramline, Choate, Butler Creek, and any other decent (and available) sidefolders. Can you give me the distance from: -end of butstock...

    NFA Trust -- naming question, additional trustees?

    Just a little clarification before I submit paperwork and have the lowers engraved.... Are there any limits on what you can name a trust? I have it stuck in my head that I want to name it "In God We" or "In God We Trust" so that the engraving can say: In God We Trust Mytown, ST Any...

    Anybody know about a "QFI" revolver?

    I'm looking for an inexpensive teaching aid, and a local shop has a QFI for $130. (.22lr, single action) So far all I can find from Google is that it's an out of business company from Florida. Does anyone know about this brand? Anyone have a bluebook who's up for educating me?

    "need" to buy a handgun....

    Yeah, like we've never heard this one before... but it's true. I swear! The NRA has a list of materials you need to have on hand to teach a basic pistol class. This list includes: - a semiauto pistol. I think I have this covered. - a DA revolver. I suspect I have this covered too. ;-) - a...

    NFA -- Where to send?

    I have four sets of paperwork to send in. Two say to send them to Chicago and two say to send them to DC, and I've heard people talk of sending forms to VA. Where should I address them to? (two Form 1, two Form 4) Hmmm... Looks like they might both be valid addresses. Is there any...

    Recommendations - .22 DA/DA wheelgun for training

    It's time to look for something that i've never touched before - a double action .22 wheelgun. This will be for instruction of newbies, so light weight will be a concern. A decent DA trigger pull would be good to. If possible, I'd like to keep it as inexpensive as I can, so used is a most viable...

    Latest Diebold Voting Machine problems....

    While looking around through one of my daily websites, I found a few surprising links to issues with the electronic voting machines Diebold sells. (I believe our own Jim March is a resident expert on these) First, understand that these machines are put forth as secure tools to count public...

    Rocksalt Shotshells....??? can anyone pack a few for me?

    Odd as it may seem, I've recently come into the need for 12ga shotshells loaded with rocksalt. No, no, I'm not looking to use them on the guys that come sniffing after Critter... (though it might be an interesting deterrent angle) I asked someone what they'd like to shoot their defective...

    New Shooter, New Build

    Not too long ago I taught girl's daughter, Critter, how to shoot. :-) Well... last night we built up a pair of stripped AR lowers. Nothing like teaching a young'in how to shoot, then walking her through putting the rifle together from parts. I think I'll try to hold off and let her put the...

    Given: FL resident - First Offense DUI Probation - lots of fines, lawyers fees, etc. (sorry only have limited details) Query: What ways would this likely have progressed through the FL legal system? What impact on gun possesion, ownership, or purchase would the various ways this...

    CBS46 Atlanta - Complaints of firearms resale by Police

    They're staying fairly factual, but they are putting a nasty spin on it. (of course) Argh.... They speed over the total of 14k+ over the past few years, but take lots of time to talk about the few dozen that find their way back into criminal hands. Ugh. They make it sound like they are...

    9mm AR mags -- ??

    Has the patent on Colt 9mm mags & their bolt catch engagement expired yet? Are there any other mags out there that will properly work the Colt style (actually RRA rifle) bolt catch on a 9mm AR?

    Optimum barrel length for 9mm?

    OK guys... Assuming the target load is subsonic 147gr 9mm, what would the optimum barrel length be to maximize velocity and powder burn? (I'm going to be SBR'ing a 9mm AR and want to optimize the performance) Thanks

    9mm barrel threading - what pitch?

    I'm getting ready to pick up a 9mm can. It will share time between a 9mm AR and a collection of common pistols. (likely a 226, maybe a glock or p99, ??) The question has come up - what thread pitch do I want? 1/2x28 sounds common, nobody else seems to use the odd RRA 1/2x36. Any benefit to...
