    NC concealed carry without permit - hope for veto

    I think that gun owners are their own worst enemy. Here we have someone who is a member of a gun forum and presumably a gun owner, writing to a state Governor, asking him to veto a pro gun bill. I think training requirements and background checks are an infringement on a God given right. When a...

    Smith&Wesson Model 25-2 Purchase

    I don't fool with moon clips. I load .45 Auto Rim. Both of my S&W revolvers will function using .45 ACP ammo without moon clips. Most of the time, the empties will fall out or I can pick them out with my fingers. Worst case, I use a pencil to extract the empties. But I much prefer .45 Auto Rim...

    Run off the Range by a Bully and His Girls

    I am not a hunter. I have no urge to go hunting. I was at a local range one day, in the middle of the week. I was there with a friend. He has a 1918 A2 BAR. We were shooting it from a bench. The target was at about 100 yards. I had just sat down at the bench and gotten behind the gun. A deer...

    NRA election coming up

    Seth, I am very familiar with Jeff Knox. I met and talked to his father. I also voted for both Jeff and his father in any NRA election they were involved in. I have never heard of you. I cannot find out anything about you. In view of what has happened with the NRA leadership in the last few...

    Remington Model 51

    I saw one of the original Remington Model 51s today. It is a .380. I have only seen a few of them. It is a neat pistol. I am thinking about buying it. Does anyone here have any experience with them? Anything I should look for? Any reason to avoid it? I do not want it to carry or for home...

    25-2 possible project thoughts? **shooting post added**

    I have a 25-2. I got it about 1974or 75. I absolutely love that gun. I would have bought the one you bought for $200.00 as soon as I saw it. If it was mine, I would call the factory and see what they would charge to refinish it. I have several .45 Autos. I reload for them on a Dillon press. I...

    MLB Memorabilia Question - Ichiro Signed Mariners' Jersey

    I was working on a big construction site many years ago. There were several hundred tradesmen there. One of the boilermakers sold baseball memorabilia. He could go out to his van and get you a baseball signed by who ever you wanted.

    To Rip Off Chief Joseph...

    Congratulations on your retirement. I have been retired 16 years. I have never been bored a second. Between shooting, reloading, reading, and my daily walks the days fly by. Enjoy every minute, no one knows how long it will last. Good luck and best wishes.

    Model 17-3 K-22 Masterpiece

    I have one I bought new in the mid 1970s. I am very happy with it. I have no idea how many rounds have been thru it.Sometimes the extraction gets sticky. I use a brass wire brush and some Hoppe's and clean each chamber real good. That has always solved the problem.

    Kansas Court Rules on Machine Guns

    I have seen several people post similar things. I have talked to a variety of NFA firearms owners. Every one I spoke to disagrees with this.
