    What do folks here do with their carry gun when they have to go into a post office?

    UPS Store for all my package and overnight letter needs, they actually track the packages and give delivery notifications online. They have PO boxes for rent too. My post office has drop off boxes which actually front onto a non-Gov't. parking lot.

    How to hang a rifle at the back door?

    I think some type of same storage is a must, as a theft deterrent and to avoid legal liability based on future actions of a thief. Also I wouldn't want to pull up the driveway, see the back door forced open, and start wondering how good my jacket thrown over the AR15 in the back of the closet...

    I think anybody with a small modicum of intelligence would think about a situation such as a fire, volunteer F.D. rolls up, etc.

    Neighbor Shooting Directly Towards My Home Just Hundreds of Feet Away

    I'd call the sheriff every time this happens.When this doesn't work I'd move up to the State Police. I wouldn't want to go shooting with or be friendly with an idiot. You might also have a legal claim in that this is reducing the value of your property. There are also legal processes to compel...

    So I Inquired with Yeti about the NRA issue.

    My suggestion would be to buy a cheap cooler from Walmart (haters please stop) and send the 300 I would save to worthy cause, which may or may not be the NRA, or the practice ammo fund. My cheap coolers sit on the porch from Thanksgiving to start of fishing season, they get rinsed out and...

    Va Tech student arrested for having AR and ammo.

    Sounds like a good case for jury nullification. From my experience people who have evil intent do not use the gun locker at the University Police station. Might also have been an opportunity for the detective to do a little preemptive crime prevention instead of being an accessory to messing up...

    Mantis X Training System - Anyone Else Using it?

    I have used this, and I learned that if I paid attention to the fundamentals, I "shot" better. Then when I go to the range, I also learned that if I paid attention to the fundamentals, I shot better. Of course the range cost more, but it was also more fun. For the 1911 for dry firing, you could...

    Mexican Carry Strikes Again

    I just got locked in a bathroom at work that had a sign on it that said "do not use lock broken" and about 20 people came up to me today to razz me about it, so just imagine how many smart comments I would get if I shot my "you know what" off by accident. No thank you.

    Flying with guns

    While they may not be tagged "firearms" I managed to find an older gentleman in a big cowboy hat with about 4 long gun cases and casually asked him if he was "keeping 2A alive" and he said "however did you know?" I found on my most recent flight that Cabellas has a very nice lockable case that...
