On old Colt wheelguns, such as the Police Positive, there is a hole running through the knurled end of the ejector rod. I figure this hole must have a purpose, but can't figure it out. Anyone know?

Both the NRA and SAF want to speak with people who had guns confiscated. In preparation for further lawsuits over gun confiscations both groups are looking for people who actually had guns confiscated. If you have personally had a gun confiscated in Louisiana since Hurricane Katrina hit, please...

"Of any news story since New Orleans became the first venue in America to disarm its peaceable citizens house by house--at gunpoint--nothing brought home the sheer terror of it all more than two broadcast video segments: one on ABC News and another on Fox News Channel. Opening with scenes of...

A bit old, but nonetheless interesting. Armed militia protects its New Orleans neighborhood Band of neighbors survived Hurricane Katrina, then fought off looters. By Bob Dart WASHINGTON BUREAU Saturday, September 10, 2005 NEW ORLEANS -- The Algiers Point militia put away its weapons Friday as...

Disaster Can’t Destroy Gun Rights Monday, September 12, 2005 National Rifle Association leader Wayne LaPierre slammed New Orleans authorities Monday for seizing legal firearms from lawful residents. "What we’ve seen in Louisiana - the breakdown of law and order in the aftermath of disaster...

Mike, Claude and I got back home from New Orleans this afternoon. We left home on 8/31 with the intention on helping the evacuation effort. We had hoped to join in with the Red Cross, since our skills were needed. We were two nurses and a surgeon. We could not find the Red Cross. We did find two...

Myself, another nurse and a surgeon are leaving for New Orleans tonight with DHH. We expect to be at Baton Rouge by morning. FWIW, we will all three be going armed, and carrying openly, even though our mission is humanitarian. For anyone interested, my choice is my old 1911 and three extra...

In this thread, a shooter who is indeed a hero used his concealed gun to stop a stabbing and save a woman's life. Unfortunately, in so doing, he commited a fourth degree felony just for having his gun on the premises. In this situation, if you were seeing a stranger viciously attacked, and...

I think I scored today. I found a 5 screw 5 inch M&P with all numbers matching wearing the original grips. It's kind of rough, but checks out well using Mr. March's Revolver Checkout. It looks to have been fired very little, but it has a bit of the rust bug attacking it. I have it soaking in ATF...

Over at "another forum" there is a thread where a few folks, myself included, were bold enough to take out our grungy old carry guns, and snap a few pics without even wiping the lint off. The results yeilded a fascinating display of pictures. So with that in mind, How about whooping out your...

Step through the looking glass for a moment..... Today while I was out making my rounds, I had a thought. Suppose Osama Bin Laden himself crossed the border into the United States. Let's say he was camping out in the Arizona desert trying to stay under the radar and set up a terrorist training...

I recently came into a Savage 87A .22 rifle. The rifle has no serial number (and no place looking like it was removed) and is complete. It shoots well. I am wondering about when these rifles were made, and an approximate value. I cannot seem to find it in any reference books. I figure it's worth...

I'm considering a Savage 67H for $129. It seems to be a decent gun, but I'm unfamiliar with the Savage line and can't find much online or in my reference books. Does anyone own one and/or know any points to watch out for when buying this gun used?

Reading through some of the archived threads it struck me how many gunstores apparently don't want to make money doing transfers. They would rather potentially lose a return customer, and lose the money they could make off a transfer fee based on the belief that refusing to do a transfer will...

Another S&W Model 10-5 followed me home today. It was in just to good a shape to let languish on a pawnshop shelf for $179. All matching, maybe half a box of ammo through it and sock-drawered afterwards for 40 years. I figured it needed some exercise! It's my second 10-5. Am I crazy?
