    Is Anybody carrying a M&P340?

    Bought a 340M&P last year for my wife when she 'thought' she wanted something lighter than her steel frame 640-1. Put Hogue tamer grips on it, which are definitely easier to shoot than the stock. However, she will not shoot it any more. For .357 we shot mostly Remington Golden Saber in it or...

    Powder:Bass Pro vs Cabela's

    Bass Pro near me does not carry powder. Cabelas has a limited supply with occaisional good prices on sales, about the same quantity as the Big R farm supply store.

    State Farm Insurance

    I pretty much figured that State Farm would not have any kind of rider on homeowners to cover legal defense in use of a firearm, but thought I would ask while I was there. The thing that has ticked me off the more I think about it though is their position that there is something evil about...

    State Farm Insurance

    I have my homeowners insurance with State Farm. The policy is up for renewal this month, so I decided to ask my agent if State Farm offered coverage on it for concealed carry legal liability. I've had my permit about five years but had never gotten around to getting insurance. My agent was not...
