    hope for an AR-15 in PRC? (Dear Santa, I have been a good boy...)

    Well, I should know more about this - but in June or July of this year, a good chunk of the AW ban in Cali was struck down by the courts. My gun dealer tells me nobody is brave enough to actually do anything like import some detachable magazine, pistol grip sporting rifles... Does anyone know...

    Single Shot (Target) Pistols in CA - rules?

I found a TC Contender in .223 Rem for $195 and I am thinking about picking it up - hopefully to do some sillhoette (sic) shooting... Are single shot pistols exempt from the "safety...

    Russian "Wolf" ammo in .45 ACP...?!

    I ordered 500 rounds of this stuff a couple weeks ago and ran 300 rounds of it through my Colt Defender. I like the price - but I had a lot of malfunctions. The rangemaster said he sees that a lot with the Wolf ammo - he thought it was a little thicker or something. Has anyone else had this...

    Are we already defeated?

    I wonder - because some of us gun owners act like it. I can be guilty of it at times - but this hunker down and lay low attitude is not helping. We cannot win this battle if we do not believe. Personally, I still believe that most Americans are good, freedom loving people who just need more...

    Is the gun culture contagious? perhaps...

    For all the public rhetoric and bumper stickers, web debates, etc, all that happens is that we more thouroughly convince the thouroughly convinced. I think we should all make a commitment to "bring people in". Look at religion, network marketing, Avon, etc - when people are motivated by...

    Single shot pistol - what events, what guns, what caliber?

    Hi, I have been wanting to build a single shot pistol and do some siloette (sic) shooting and competing. Problem is - I have no idea where to do this or how to get started. I live in Northern California - does anyone know of any groups that do this kind of thing around here? Also - does...

    Out of the shadows... (confessions of a lurker)

    I have been lurking here for several weeks. I have been very impressed by this site and the friendliness of the people on it. I have seen several questions asked by new people and they seem to always get polite and concerned responses. This only confirms what I have always believed - gun...
