    OAL of an SBR

    Thankfully, I have a buddy with one already done in a MG, so he helped me out. My question is, how do you measure the OAL of something you plan on filing a form 1 on without breaking the law? I have an MP5K I'm going to SBR, and my last SBR was assembled by them (SBR receiver transferred to me...

    Selling FTF to people in different states

    I searched on ATF, but guess I wasn't looking in the right spot. I have two friends that want to buy from me, but not sure how this works, if at all. If any one knows what the law is under, please point me in the right direction. Thank you.

    Any recommended engravers in Houston?

    Any input is much appreciated, I have a buddy with a nice 1911 who wants his Ranger crest engraved on it. Thank you.

    Picked up a Colt Delta Elite

    I got it today for a good price. It had an idiot scratch, but I plan to use it and not too worried about it. I paid $900 and there was another for $1,695, and it looked like it had been rode hard and put up wet (also had an idiot scratch.) Did I miss something? Is there a special edition I don't...

    Need help picking a 6.8 SPC AR-15 barrel

    I've built a distance AR, but would now like to bump it up to a 6.8 SPC for accuracy at 200 yards (the barrel I used wasn't the best choice). I would like a match grade, HEAVY barrel, as I won't be lugging it around. I've seen a few on Midway, Bison (whom I've never heard of), and I don't know...

    Shipping my handgun...

    Well, I was at my mother's for Mother's Day and she lives 4 hours from me. I put my handgun on top of a bookshelf just in case my little sister was being nosey (she knows about guns, but better safe than sorry). Well, I left it there (I had just bought it and still carried my 642, so I was armed...

    Vortex customer service

    Well, I cranked off the bolt on my Strikefire and sheered the bolt off. Called them up today and within less than a minute of talking to a REAL person, I had a new lower half of the mount headed my way. VERY pleased with their customer service, a little disappointed the bolt sheered after what I...

    More AK-47 getting the blame

    If posting any news is bad, please delete mods. I just want to show the continuing AK-47 ignorance out there. I seriously would have thought some Aggies would've been able to ID an AR type weapon over an AK...

    642/442 safety removal

    Ok, I did a search and came up empty handed. I see how to remove it and know I could, but if I ever used the gun in self-defense, would this become an issue? I live in TX where we have a good amount of rights as the victim.

    Help me help her

    Hello, This is about my girlfriend and I's recent trip to the range. She did well with the Glock, which was surprising after a few of her previous shoots, so I was proud of her. It's a little heavy for her, but I don't have a model 70 in 380 that she liked... Anyway, we go on down to the...

    IDPA in Houston (Clear Lake)

    Hi all, I must say, I really enjoyed checking out IDPA last night. It was a lenient intro-type night, so my glock with a tac-light (only holster I have for the glock) didn't keep me from trying it out. Steven Vandermolen was an excellent teacher and made it very enjoyable. If anyone hasn't...

    870 Express problem "solved"

    Hello all, I have a 6-7 month old 870 that life hasn't allowed me to shoot until about a month ago. Every other fire was a lock-up (could not cock after fired). I found out this weekend it ONLY does that with aluminum after the extractor tore the rim on the tried and true stock bump that...

    Cold Steel throwing knives

    Hi all, does anyone have any experience with these? The g/f wants to get me something for my b-day and I'm pretty hard on my stuff, so I figure C/S would be a good go-to if I wanted some throwing knives. Please let me know if you've used these and if I should buy or avoid. Thanks.

    Finished (haha) my firearm collection, looking for a new toy

    Hi all, I've owned a few knives throughout my day, but never bought anything over the $60-70 range. Well, as the title says, I have every firearm I could want, but for some strange reason, want a Tanto, about 12". I inherited my grandfather's Cold Steel Carbon V and found it was made of a...

    Mailing firearm to myself

    Ok, I couldn't find the sticky, even after the search... My father has my lower that I want to get, but is kind of far away. The lower is in my name, can he mail it to me directly? If this has been answered elsewhere, please point me in that direction, but I can't find the stinking sticky:confused:

    1911 Antiquated...

    WITHOUT starting a flame war and getting this thread closed, I would like to know what makes the 1911 antiquated? I just got my second 1911 (sold my first one) and was looking it over last night and comparing to my glock and a buddy's PX4. I like all three, but I few them as different and don't...

    Just arrived...

    The last upper I plan on buying for a while, if ever. Grabbed a 450 BM upper carbine off of Midway while they had the sale going on. Looks good, but the shipping container made me want to clean and oil it (shredded cardboard...) Also got the new scope for an upper I built a while back, will post...

    Calling all 1911 guys

    Hello all, I will be purchasing a 1911 RIA tactical, but am not a fan of the ambi-safety. How difficult would it be to swap it for a regular safety? Thanks, BN

    Beretta 70S

    Looking to break down and clean my boss's gun (inherited) but when I turn the lever to disassemble, nothing happens. If anyone else has had this problem, please let me know. Thank you.
