It is not ok to leave a 2 yr old alone in a locked car. What if you went in to get your wife and both ended up shot and dead or incapacitated? What's going to happen to that child? What happens if someone sees the child, breaks a window and takes him/her? In that situation the best thing to...

We call them "Donuts" at work so nosey co-workers don't know what we're talking about :) We call ammo "munchkins"

Just take her. Take a revolver, a semi-auto handgun and a semi-auto rifle with standard capacity mags. Explain that a .357 magnum is more powerful than most semi-auto handgun calibers. Heavy concentration on safety and showing her proper technique. I wouldn't take too many guns because...

The P250 compact is fairly large for a compact. Since you're limited in CA to 10 rounds, the only advantages to the full size are slightly better accuracy and reduced muzzle flip. And since you are limited to 10 rounds, it makes the .40 S&W more attractive. The beauty of the P250 is that you...

Unless they are mechanically inclined, I'd stay away from the semi-autos and lean toward revolvers. Probably go with a full size and all steel to reduce felt recoil. A .38/.357 is ideal since they can start with .38s and move up to .357 when they are ready. Plus a .38 defense load can be more...

Poor argument since the 2nd Amendment refers to personal firearms, not destructive devices. Learn the difference. That's the typical straw man argument used by gun banners. It's not a valid argument.

At this point, I think we could give up private sales at gun shows without background checks. Set it up so FFL can run background checks for private sellers for a fee. I for one, would like to know the person I'm selling to could pass a background check but I have no way to run one. I...

Meesh, If your husband's arm hurt after 6 rounds, you're shooting the wrong gun. Go back and try again with a smaller caliber. In general, you're going to experience more felt recoil with a revolver than with a semi-automatic. However, semi-automatics are not quite as simple to operate as...

What has the NRA lied about? Obama and his friends are right now trying to do everything the NRA warned about. Obama has filled his cabinet with just about every anti-gun apointee he could find. From the Gun show loop hole to the new Assault Weapon Ban, its all happening right now. Don't...

This is the reason that I am reluctant ever buy a used modern gun. People lubicating their firearms with god knows what and scrubbing their bores with home made concoctions. I've seen people do more damage in one hour of cleaning than what would happen in a lifetime of normal shooting. I have...

Of course they fail to mention that those stats of children getting killed with guns include 17 and 18 year old gang members killing each other.

So I guess all those thousands of stories in the NRA Armed Citizen database never really happened . According to ABC, no one could ever sucessfully defend them self with a gun.

Of course they rig every test to make gun owners look bad. Who is to say in a campus situation, a concealed carry holder wouldn't have several seconds or even minutes to find cover and deploy their weapon as the shooter was entering other rooms first. Of course in their test a highly trained...

I know where you can get all the ammo you want. I live in South Florida also. I don't know if I am allowed to plug a local business on THR so PM me and I'll give you the address and phone number of my local ammo supplier.

That is why I elected to have a dial lock on my safe rather than an electronic one. If ever the SHTF, I want my rifles when I need them most. I also want to have a working safe to protect my other guns from looters. Katrina was the wake up call for all those that said it could never happen...

I got one of those and it hurts like hell when you shoot it. Your hand absorbs all the recoil since there is virtually no weight in the frame. It's not a pleasant gun to shoot, even for a male. The only reason I got it was for concealed carry since it is so light, for a home defense revolver...

Too much oil in the barrel (and chamber) can seep into and foul a chambered round over time. This can cause a dangerous situation with a misfire or squib load. Easy does it with oil in the bore. A light coating of CLP on a patch is all you will need.

It's a door breaching device designed to provide the proper spacing for blowing out a deadbolt lock or hinges. These are very commonly used in Iraq to make entry through a locked door. Also sends shards of wood and metal into any bad guys that might be in close proximity on the other side.

Gonhuntin - was that a handgun or long gun you were mailing?

Yes, when I sold a gun on consighment I was told ahead of time that if it didn't sell I would have to complete a background check to get it back. Fortunately for me, it sold.
