    Sorting Bulk Brass - Need HELP!

    I came into possession of almost literally a truckload of once fired brass of just about any and all calibers you can think of. Can anyone suggest the most efficient way to sort this stuff? I know some hand sorting will be required, but I'd like to minimize it as much as possible.

    Received my grandfather's Light Twelve yesterday!

    So my grandfather (dad's dad) died about 8 years ago and the Auto-5 Light Twelve he had went to one of my uncle Steve because he was the only son who didn't already own one (I think my grandfather gave it to him before just he died). Then a year or so back I half-jokingly told my uncle he could...

    Any 50 year old gun?

    I should know the answer to this question but I am in doubt. Does any gun that is 50 years old qualify as C&R? Say I want to buy a Model 70 that was made in '58, does that qualify or does the design have to be declared C&R?

    Old Shotgun Shells

    I bought a case (20 boxes) of Western Xpert Super Skeet 16 Ga. paper shotgun shells in the original cardboard box this afternoon. They are in great shape for being 30+ years old and went unopened up until the last year or so when the guy I purchased them from wanted to "see what type of shape...

    Why only have a few calibers?

    I have seen several posts scattered here and there where the author has created his collection around a handfull of calibers. I am puzzled as to why anyone would want to do this. I have quite an array of calibers and keep ammo on hand for everything. Even if you handload, you don't have to...

    More C&R Questions

    I have a couple of questions related to a previous C&R thread I started (http://www.thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=252697) but I will start anew here. 1. I have the paperwork to apply for my C&R, but I will be moving in about 3 month to my new house. Would it be best to wait to...

    GPS for guns?

    Does anyone know of any passive GPS based tracking devices that could be placed in a gun stock (or other area) that could be activated if the firearm were stolen. I think this would be a great idea. If something were stolen, you could give the police the dracking info and then just sit back...

    Indoor shooting range

    I have always been interested in having an indoor shooting range in my house. The house my aunt and uncle live in had one when they bought the home. The original owner was a Weatherby dealer and had a closet with a steel plate hanging at an angle above an elevated sand box. The plate was one...

    C&R License

    I have pretty much gotten to the point where I probably need to apply for my C&R license. I think it would be cheaper and more convenient for me to go that route but I am not sure if I want the hassle. My dad had his FFL when I was a kid but ended up letting it go because all of the regs and...
