    I don't know what it is about the Condor Outback.....

    ........but I want one........ I have no real need for one, other than I think it's a neat concept and would make a handy Truck/Trunk/Travel gun. Every time I see one in a gun store I just have to fondle it. I've got 3 870's, an 11-87, a Mossberg 500 and 835, a Remington 31, and an H&R...

    Let's talk bolt-actions.....what's your favorite?

    Seems like there are a lot of rifle threads on the forums lately about AR's, AK's and the stuff most likely to be the target of an AWB. Let's change gears a minute and talk about bolt actions. Hunting rigs, bench rest, whatever your purpose for them. I'm a Remington 700 guy myself.... My 2...

    Robert Tolan shooting (Bellaire, TX) and the right to resist false arrest.

    I've heard/read many times over the years that it is a citizen's right to resist false/illegal arrest by law enforcement. With that in mind, consider the case of Robert Tolan: Excerpted from http://blogs.houstonpress.com/hairballs/2009/02/baseball_player_shot_by_police.php# : Mr. Tolan was...

    Question, Possibly a Stupid one, re: Remington R223R1 ammo

    The 55 grain pointed soft point Remington Express ammo....... .....is it a Corelokt bullet or not? I see folks referring to it as a Corelokt, but the box and Remington's website simply say PSP (Pointed Soft Point). Other calibers of Express ammo specify that they use a Corelokt PSP bullet...

    Anyone using/used a Millet DMS-1 on a hunting rig? Results?

    I recently put a Millet DMS-1 on my AR-15. I like it for that platform. I started wondering though how the DMS-1 would work on a bolt action hunting rig. Maybe a 20" light rifle in say 7mm-08 or .308? Kinda thinking forward to another hunting rig sometime in the near future and wondering about...

    Anybody else have a Mossberg barrel on an 870??

    Poor shotgun is so confused it doesn't know what it is........ I picked up a Mossberg made 870 barrel for one of my 870's today. Ordered it from havlinsales.com (good folks, quick shipping). This 18.5" rifle sight cyl bore barrel replaced the 20" cyl bore bead sight barrel that I had on it...

    Decisions, Decisions.........

    I hate these threads, even when I create them, but here goes..... I've recently gone through my closets/safes and culled some shotgun barrels and other stuff that I no longer use. I've got about 400.00 incoming from that (maybe more if someone buys that other 870 barrel :D). I've got...

    Precision expectations from a 16" HBAR AR Carbine (non-free float)?

    I'm new to AR's. Built my first one just a few months ago. TI stripped lower with Armalite LPK and factory RRA HBAR 16" A3 upper. Only mod so far is a Midwest Industries 2 piece quad rail (non-free float). I've been shooting irons with it at 25 and 50 yds and have been happy with the way...

    Millet DMS-1: The good, the bad, the ugly?

    OK........DMS-1 users, chime in..........please. I built my very first AR several months back. RRA 16" upper mated to a Tactical Innovations lower with Armalite guts. I've been shooting irons with it now for a few months. I like the irons (detachable carry handle), but I'd also like to have...

    Home Security Systems........I finally did it....

    I've never had an alarm on my house before. I saw the need and utility for one but never "took the plunge". Last week a fellow who works for me came home from a Vegas vacation to find out his home had been burglarized. They took the high end electronics and pretty much stopped there. It got...

    Am I the only one this happens to??? Please say no.....

    I'm either the most forgetful, thickheaded bozo to ever carry a gun or this happens all the time and no one talks about it......... I lose magazines (and speedloaders). All the time. I don't mean lose them as in dropped in a public place and left behind. I mean lose them in my truck, my closet...

    First Deer!........for my nephew........

    Opening day of regular gun season here this past Saturday my 15 year old nephew got his first ever deer and it turned out to be a fairly nice 8 pointer. Opening day the morning was warm and rainy and deer were not moving. We did a few man-drives and this one nearly ran me over on the way to my...

    Advice on a second .223/5.56 rifle......

    So I built an AR recently, wasn't really much of a black rifle kinda guy but figured I better before another ban comes around. Surprisingly, I like it and I like the round. I'm at a point where I'm thinking about my next rifle purchase and would like another rifle in this caliber. I was thinking...

    Trails End 307.........I'm a believer.......again

    I've tried several deer attractants over the years but only Trail's End has given me visible results. Tonight was the second time. The first was a few years ago. I walked in to an acorn ridge with a climbing stand on my back. I had boot pads with trails end on them. I got the stand set up...

    New Coleman branded flashlights........

    I've confessed before my affections for things that light up. I know there are many members here much more hardcore in their addiction than me though. I don't even go near candlepowerforums just because I want to stay married and I spend enough money on guns and gear as it is :p. So, to that...

    ACLU Survey in the mail........

    :barf: I suppose I got this because I'm a registered Independent. I get lots of mail and phoney calls around this time every 2-4 years for some reason. :rolleyes: This one reads like the DNC platform. Lots of questions referring to church and state, habeas corpus, same sex marriage...

    At a bit of a crossroads here......

    ......for the first time in my life I don't have a "must have" firearm on my list. I've finished my AR. Happy with it. May add a quality red dot optic or the like to it someday, but happy with irons (detachable carry handle) for now. Hunting rifles are well covered with a pair of 700's topped...

    New holster for my LCP.....

    ......OK so I'm tired of pocket carry. Maybe it's just that summer's in full swing and I've been mostly pocket carrying for a couple months now, but I started getting annoyed at it lately. My summer carry typically consists of either an LCP or an SP101. The SP typically IWB in an AKJ...

    Sanford NC Walmart shooting.

    Why in NC?? Gives us Tarheels a bad name I tell ya. http://www.wral.com/news/news_briefs/video/3319513/ I'm assuming since one of the charges is "carrying a concealed weapon" that the fellow didn't have a valid permit. At least he wasn't "doing the Walmart walk" with his brand new CCW and...
