    I have read 2 threads on L&P about Coulter's new book mostly written by members who have not and will never actually read the book. Here is a link to chapter 1. Maybe the discourse on this thread will at least target opinion based on content in context rather than speculation. Godless: The...

    What Causes A Delay When Buying A Firearm

    I am just curious. Every time I buy a gun there is a 2 minute delay. I have been told my approval required a supervisor to get the go ahead.

    I Took My 29-2 To The Range

    My first outing with my "new to me" 6" 29-2 was a little disappointing. I had a few failure to fire. The pin was hitting the center of the primer and the rounds always discharged on the 2nd try. Also, one cylinder the brass bound up so tight I had to use a small screw driver through the cylinder...

    I am a novice when it comes to bullet weights, fps, velocity, etc. My question is what is the benefit of using hollow point +P rounds over fmj ammo? Today I shot my .38 into a stack of license plates. I used Winchester White Box 125 gr JHP +P and American Eagle 130 gr FMJ not +P. The JHP +P...

    Is S.W.A.T. Magazine...

    Is S.W.A.T. Magazine geared toward LEO community or is it good for anyone? I am often accused by those who I deal with professionally and LEOs who don't know me of being LEO wannabe (I am a P.I./process server).
