As I said, playing Devil's Advocate - I do not want paroled violent felons LEGALLY owning guns, nor do I want folks a la "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" to do so either. Otherwise, I have no problem with just about any other scenario, including resident-aliens owning firearms

I think swap giant has what everyone is looking for as far as features and has been a runaway success in Ohio with just a small amount of effort put in by a small number of people. It is nationwide and free.

Quote: I could use one, but since ammo isn't all that much less than 22LR... You're either overpaying for pellets or I desperately need to know where you're getting your .22LR. Without too much shopping around you should be able to purchase excellent quality airgun pellets at less than half the cost of bulk-packed .22LR.

Are you thinning the herd?...
Published (2009-11-27 16:24:00)
I don't have many guns and the ones I have serve a definitive purpose. If I "thinned the herd", there wouldn't be a herd, and I'd have a hole left open in the abilities of the remaining weapons.

For a listing of the good gunsmith schools, look here:

Here's my standard response to this question.
Here's the hard, cold facts about gunsmithing.
If you're planning on being in the business as a pro, you're not going to get there with a correspondence or some kind of online course.
Businesses that hire gunsmiths ...

I think the firearms market is already very competitive but I think it is still ok to negotiate. If a shop is selling you a new gun at reasonable market price then I would guess they are not making that much over their cost. If a store is asking a high price then I would certainly negotiate and if they do not want to play ball then I would just walk away. The used gun market is one that is more...

Bedside Gun Rack
I'll start us off with this gun rack I saw on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3GXYAzh8EQ
It is pretty cheap and pretty practical. I think that it is that within a second or less I could pull out the gun and be prepared to protect my home or go hunting.

Do I need more?
Okay, this what I have going on. I have a mosin nagant rifle, mini-14, .40 caliber pistol, 10-22 for plinking and a HD shotgun. Do I concentrate on ammo or do I look for other areas to cover pertaining to weapons. I feel that I have all areas covered, but would like to know what you guys think. Thanks as always...

Do you look at gun classified ads when you have no money?
I do, and it's close to self-torture. Wondering if there are other masochists out there.

Pax, congratulations.
I haven't seen Lessons from Armed America yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Based on the quality of what you write here and on your website, I'm quite certain that it's a superb book. (Hah! and you thought you were embarrassed before... )

Well, there is a lot of detail here that is directly related to going armed and the forethought that should accompany that state. However there is also a lot of .. I am at a loss for a descriptive term ... drama, I guess.
I hope you all can sift through this to find the on-topic portions.

Nope.
Look at groceries. Every time the price of gas went up 50 cents, $100 worth of groceries suddenly cost $10 more. Did the supermarkets drop their prices when fuel costs went back down? Heck no, they just waited for the next increase in fuel prices and continued jacking their prices.

Trading in my gun rights and freedoms?
So, my dad is visiting for Thanksgiving week. He lives in another state. He's getting older (77, but still doing OK). He tells me that he has come to a decision about his house. He says that if we move back to my hometown, that we can have the house I grew up in. Of course, he would live ...

I haven't bought a gun at Wal-Mart in forever but whenever I do at my local gun shop I show my Drivers License and Firearm Purchase Certificate when I fill out the 4473. The last time I moved I updated my D.L. quickly but was told that "just to wait" when I wanted to update my FPC. I never encountered any problems.

WD40 is NOT any form of lubricant. All that WD will do is drive water (and the rust associated with it) from the sprayed area. The WD stands for Water Displacement, the original purpose was to get water out of machinery. Yes, it does feel greasy, but it is not an oil, and using it as such will reduce the life of the parts in contact.
Use an oil DESIGNED for firearms usage, and use it sparingly....
