I got one and let my 33 yr old daughter take it and now would love to find antoher one at such a good price. Saw one this weekend at a gun show and it was priced at $500. Almost bought it for that and it only had the one magazine.

Two college seniors had a week of exams coming up. However, they decided to party instead. So when they went to the test they decided to tell the professor that their car had broken down the night before due to a very flat tire and they needed a bit more time to study. The professor told them...

There are some cites where people made photos of buildings and private homes but was later sued for copyright infringement. I do not recall the man's name but a religious person was photographed on the streets of NY and the photo later won some type of award. The man learned of this and...

I am not going to take sides on this or place blame. What I am going to say is you likely made the photo with a cell phone camera. This is causing a lot of problems for many companies, courts and people. A person does not have the right to take photos of things, places or people without...

My favorite shotgun is a Browning A5 made in September 1953. It will outshoot any of the newer guns. If I got the chance to buy another Begium made A5, I would sure do it.

Each person has their favorite 1911 and for various reasons. Some buys for price, some for quality, some for looks but they all end up loving their 1911 and wanting more. I have a few and love each for a different reason. My personal favorite is a S&W. I would sell every gun I own before...

Cashews are too costly to feed to a fish. Try peanuts.

That is exactly what these guys said. I may disagree with a statement made by one of them when he said getting hit in the shoulder with a .45acp will cause enough trauma and pain to stop aggression. Both agreed they had seen many instances of multiple hits with smaller calibers that may or may...

Mine locks as well but I never thought anyone would steal a hitch head that is not the weight distributing head. I have a lock for it but now I am keeping the head locked in a box. The advanage of having the head in is if someone hits me from the rear, their car is damaged a lot more than my...

Yes and I wonder what they would have taken if it had been dark. The truck has an alarm system but a window has to be broken or a door has to be opened for the alarm to go off. Due to the stuff inside and the theft of the hitch, the nice items inside are now in a double locked metal tool box...

I have been working too much and needed to vent so I went to an indoor range. A Forensic Pathologist and a Plastic Surgeon went with me. We all shot good but the Surgeon out did all of us but then both he and his wife shoot IDPA twice monthly. I would also suggest if you want to learn which...

If one were to do this, we can tell what was done. The shooter would go to jail, even if the initial event was justified. Investigators are way better trained today than 20 yrs ago. The position of the body, the clothing, blood spatter and many other things speak just as a witness would but...

Should anyone mention that with shorter barrels, accuracy drops along with other things like more recoil. In an ideal situation, a person should have the longest barrel possible. Back in the old days when officers were walking their beat, they carried nothing less than four inches and many...

A person can hide almost any gun if they work at it. I carry a concealed full frame 1911 without a problem. Carry that .4506 and enjoy it. They are really nice guns.

From personal experieces at shooting crime sites. Leave the .22 at home for plinking beer cars. Many people will treat a .22 wound as they would a bee sting. You will tick them off big time and they will either cut you to pieces, shoot you with a proper caliber or beat you to death with their...
