Has anyone ever tried to get a discount by getting a large group of TFL members together to make a purchase? This is what I was thinking... Lets say I want to purchase a stripped AR-15 lower. I start a thread requesting that serious interested TFL members express their desire to purchase. In...

I know this will be a fruitless effort, but I just had to inquire with the local movie theater chain. Here is what I wrote them... I believe it has been discussed before in the "L & P" section, but my "If your company is not willing to bear the weight of such liability (whether legally or...

I just completed a CCW course today. Everyone in the class seemed to be reasonably sharp. However, there was one individual who had just purchased a Glock before the course. I didn't get a chance to ask his experience, but he sure appeared to be relatively new to shooting. Not that I'm an...

Watch this until the end where you will get to hear some words of wisdom. I probably would have used those words during the first (at least it was the first one in video) magazine when the gun was smoking badly. AK47 on fire Fly

I may have the opportunity to buy a Ruger Mark I that has light to moderate wear. It still functions well with probably 1-2 K rounds through it. I was wondering what a fair price might be for this firearm. Thanks, Fly

I may have the opportunity to buy a Ruger Security Six. It is stainless steel, 6 inch barrel with wood grips. It is in excellent condition and probably has less than 300 rounds through it. Anyone have an idea what a fair price would be? Thanks, Fly

I really enjoy taking my Beretta PX4 to the range. When the fun is all over, cleaning it is a almost as enjoyable because it's so easy to strip. When I start looking for PX4 accessories, the fun ends. Here is my latest dilemma... I am looking for a holster to use during a CC class. For now...

I am trying to find 17 round MDS magazines for my Beretta PX4 in 9mm. However, all I can find is the 10 and 15 round mags. All the 17s are "Out of Stock". Here is the questions... If I buy the 15 round mag, is there any physical difference to the magazine other than the follower and spring...

How many rounds of your preferred defense ammo do you put through your firearm before you are comfortable that it will function normally?

This is an interesting video of a San Jose, CA police officer trying to educate the uninformed about rifles and the different types of actions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjM9fcEzSJ0 I thought he did a pretty good job explaining the differences and demonstrating the transformation of the...

How many CC permit holders have unwittingly walked into a building where concealed carry was not allowed either by law or due to the posting of the "No weapons" sign?

I have to travel to training in Dallas this spring, and I would like to take a handgun or two with me. I took two with me last year and had a blast (no pun intended) at some local ranges, but I traveled through Denver. Since Chicago doesn't allow any handguns, concealed or otherwise, would I...

I am planning on taking a CC course in the near future. I have spoken with a couple of individuals who completed the course, but the discussion was very general. I am interested in what will be asked of me during the live fire. From what I understand it sounds fairly simple, but can anyone...

Has anyone had experience with K & D Holsters? I googled holsters and found their website http://www.kdholsters.com/iwb-defend.php Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Fly

I've got a Marlin 60 that I have disassembled several times. I've taken the stock of and removed the bolt/spring, etc. However the receiver stays attached to the barrel (with a pin I believe). I know I am not supposed to clean the barrel from the muzzle end, but I would have to nearly bend...

Does anyone know where I could buy the larger magazine release button for my PX4? I have the small one that came with the weapon, but can't find anyone who sells the larger one. Fly

My father-in-law was the police chief in a small Nebraska town until he passed away. My sister-in-law recently became a police officer in the same town. She asked the new chief if the department had any cleaning kits that might have come with their S&W semi-auto handguns. He said that the...

It appears, from my short time as a TFL member, that I've never read a post from someone who I thought was a female. From my experience at the range, the majority of shooters/hunters are males, but females ARE involved in shooting. Just curious if there are any females on TFL, and what the...
