    Top off your magazine?

    I recently discovered that several of my friends had never heard of or thought to top off their magazine after chambering a round. Granted, neither of these folks carry. So... Is there anyone here who carries a pistol for either work or personal protection who does not top off their magazine...

    I have a LNIB (40 rounds through it) S&W 629 Rocky Mountain Hunter- ss, 6.5 inch bbl with a full under lug, with "Rocky Mountain Hunter" laser-etched on the bbl and a scene of a bull elk bugling laser-etched on the frame. Any idea what it is worth? Trade in or "retail?" Thanks, Erik

    CCW approved today.

    A hundred bucks, a relatively simple form, and a month wait. After approval, I sept 15 minutes at the Sheriff's office submitting my fingerprints and having my picture taken for the card and records. Not as cheap or smooth as some, but all in all I have no complaints.

    Kahr MK40

    There's nothing like a major gun show coming into town just before Christmas. Of course I had to go... And while I was there, I had to purchase something, right? So I decided on the Kahr MK40. It's everything I've wanted in a backup/hideout pistol: small and potent. I also picked up an...

    It's a girl!!!

    I'm proud to announce the birth of my first child, Madison Nicole! She came a bit early (31 weeks) but is doing fine. Better than fine, actually. The docs tell me she is spectacular for her age- in the top 1%. *whew* Mom's doing well, too. Oh well, I'm off to beam with pride some more. ;) :D

    Everything is finally finished. It seemed like forever, but we closed this morning! I think I have writer's cramp from all of the signing necessary for the legal documents. ;)

    With all the talk of "everyone" voting for Gore, where did he really win? Here is a county by county map of the nation. Red counties voted for GW Bush, blue ones for Gore. (Sorry if it is fuzzy)

    Stop bombarding Ms.com

    They are decidedly NOT taking the constant stream of "gun related threads" kindly. Bombarding them with topics, particularly one's with little to no feminist interest, only serves to hurt the pro-Second Amendment cause, IMO. Thanks.

    New Ruger M77RMKII in .30-06

    I picked up my first Ruger rifle this weekend: a M77RMKII in .30-06. The blueing looks fine and the stock, while unassuming next to fancier versions out there, is attractively done. I'm familiar with the trigger complaints, and will eventually get around to having it cleaned up or replaced...

    The question of whether or not pro-gun control supporters are open to changing their opinions about the gun control debate was recently asked on another forum. My response was as follows: I have changed. I used to be pro-gun control. I have spent many hours over the years, particularly in the...
