    Civil Action against Whole Foods, and a Sergeant Bowser of NOLA PD.

    Ran across this today (Edited to add: And didn't see it in the 2A cases, so I thought I'd put it up here for consideration) : First post, including Cell Phone Video after the confrontation. The gist appears to be someone was shopping in a Whole Foods in New Orleans that did not Post. A New...

    Can anyone identify this choke tube?

    I had/have an older Browning Citori Field gun. While on a trip to visit family, I found a used choke tube for sale labeled Sk. I in a Browning Invector tube holder. As you can see the chokes have a slightly different length, and as shown better in the second picture- , threads also appear...

    Browning Citori 725 Trap, Adjustable Comb

    Well recently I picked up a 725 Trap, had the worst time ever in a store, but I thought I'd give anyone thinking about it a peek. Here's the shotgun itself: The front bead is a light pipe. Joined with a Mid bead. It comes with three red, and three green, and two non-lighted white...

    Looking for an article or source showing defining "legal title".

    I'm trying to explain the difference between transfer of title and transfer of possession as it relates to "universal background checks" but the person I'm trying to explain it to can't get past the certificate of title in their glove box, or the deed to their house, and thinks title only...

    AR 15 soft sided gun case.

    I currently have this one or some other similar one from these guys. And as far as it goes, it's fine. It's got enough padding, enough pockets and so on. But any strap options other than the carry handle suck. It desperately needs a stiffener behind the carry strap side padding to keep it...

    Horror story, and fitting question...

    Went to a local two location "big box store" holding a sale, that combined with the Browning Tax Man Rebate promotion made it very attractive to pick up the 725 I'd been eyeing. Young kid waiting on me packs it back into the wrong box, giving me about $1000 off. I go back inside after I...

    Extending seasons with bows.

    Does anyone here bow hunt? Is there an archery based Firing Line type of website you go to? I've had it in the back of my mind for a while, and I've started looking but the problem I have is I don't even know what I need to know to start asking.

    SAFE Act Arrest Something to watch for Tresmond and company, as well as other NY'ers.

    NY Safe Act first arrest I've seen But I'm not sure it'll pass the sniff test, given the guidelines for inspecting a magazine. Being next to someone who commits a criminal act has not always been held to confer probable cause/reasonable suspicion on you. I don't remember the name of the case...

    Legal Doctrine/Philosphy for Due Process form previous court - History question

    In my past searches, I came across a (Chief Justice) Court who defined due process in a (vaguely remembered paraphrasing) way similar to- the law has to work, it has to be functional, it has to make sense, and it shouldn't be easy to break accidentally, or or so poorly worded as to inflict harm...

    Bullet weights in a caliber and their affect on groups.

    In theory, how much would the PoI move based on a progression from 55 grain to 69 grain to 77 grain (in .223/5.56) without changing anything else (other than powder charge commensurate with bullet weight) Ballpark works enough for me... Basically will I spend more time clicking 1/4 MoA scopes...

    49ers Aldon Smith, CA Assault Weapons Law, and Interstate Commerce

    49'ers Aldon Smith charged with illegal possession of assault weapons. (emphasis mine) My question comes from the part I bolded. How can the State of California ban a resident of Arizona, from bringing their legal possessions into California. Is that not the complete definition of Interstate...

    Those of us who wet tumble.

    Ran across a neat little $5 toy in Rockler today getting casters and spreaders to elongate my reloading bench.. It's a magnet inside a housing on a retractable handle. Let the handle extend, magnet grabs stuff.... say steel pins. Pull the handle, the magnet loses it's proximity, and steel...

    Looking for a shop with a NIB Marlin 39A 22LR

    My local shops are telling me, if I see one, I should buy it because I'll see one before they do. And I figure somewhere out there is a gunshop called Lever Action Lovers or some such similar. Anyone in here have a line on a shop like that I could call, and do a phone order then ship to FFL?

    Is Indiana's CCW permit system unconstitutional?

    It's primarily an intellectual exercise to better understand the mechanics and P and/or I clause(s) as they apply, because Indiana currently has blanket recognition of any and every other State's permit. The statutes are here. What caught my eye was: In Baldwin v. Fish & Game Comm'n of...

    A question for the lawyers, with some PR skills as re: Pittman-Robertson and Heller

    Someone pointed out a doomed to fail House bill and one of the first things that came to mind was that even if it DID pass it would be struck down for taxing a right. As most of us who went through Hunter Education know, however, they already tax a right. Pittman Robertson passed in 1937, long...

    Photo graphics for concepts and terminology.

    Does anyone have any graphics for things like shoulder bumping/neck sizing, headspace, case "anatomy" (i.e. this is the belt, the shoulder, the neck) and so forth? I know I don't always do well translating the written word into an imagined visual picture. I was thinking if we can get this...

    Firearm or Die setup?

    I've got a Sig version of the 1911. Last couple range trips have been using my reloads with Federal brass, Federal primers, 7.2 grains of Power Pistol, and the freebie Hornady 185gr JHP. I have out of the 200 I've made, and 180 I've shot, 4 that would not feed at all. Probably another 8 that...

    Any of you folks know what the difference, and pros and cons of This Wax vs. This wax is? They're made by the same company. Why have two?

    Seating Stems

    I have a question I just started thinking about. My Die set came with two seating stems. A hollowed out one, and a flat one.. I assume the hollow one is for RN, and the flat stem is for HP/FN type bullet shapes. Is this correct? Somehow different? I can't seem to find anything that explains...

    Because this case can affect that case, and be cited in a third case, DOMA Decision

    So when the States pass a law that protects firearms rights- Say those nullification laws?- Can they now point to the Justice Kennedy here? The Decision is here That's all sorts of 5A and 10A goodness I see so far.
