NRA Grassroots Workshops for the November elections begin next week in a few cities. A number of cities will hold such workshops in September. If you'd like more info on which candidates support RKBA, you might consider reserving a seat at one of these workshops...

. . . has been sold. In addition, it is changing subscription services. I know some shooters here might subscribe, and they might be wondering where their July, August, or September issues are. Simply put, there are no July, August, or September issues. I called today (818-763-9221) and...

10 to go as of this moment. My suspicion though is that Mike Irwin has been diligently typing away (at 750 words per minute) for years at a manifesto of all that is and isn't Irwinesque. This treatise is tens of thousands of pages long now, folks. Easily into multi-volume territory. When...

I bought my first muzzleloader, and I have about three months before muzzleloading season starts here in TN. Between now and then, I want to spend quite a few outings at the range becoming familiar with my gun and its effective range. I know the basics of how to clean it. It's a CVA inline...

A friend sent me this link, and I'd never seen it posted here. It's to the Haas' Guide to Small Arms Ammunition. Provides a history of the cartridge as well as dimensions. Works off of Java. There's another feature called "Cartridge Creator" that requires Internet Explorer to work...

This is for administrators. That whole post count thread got me to wondering about the average number of posts for a member here. Not something I want to figure out for myself since there are over 600 pages of member names. But for those privy to the info, how many posts have there been...

I despise cliques in the RKBA community. Yet I keep running into new ones all the time. I suppose it's idealistic and even commendable to think that all shooters (and hunters) will look out for each other, but that just ain't the case. I just bought my first muzzleloader--an inline. I was...

I would post this over in Blackpowder, but there seems to be a few folks over there who think that muzzleloading is only for folks who shoot iron sights on a flintlock. So I'm posting here instead... I'm new to muzzleloaders and just bought my first one. I'm putting a scope on a CVA Magbolt...

Well, I took the leap. Bass Pro had their big annual hunting sale, and I got a wild hair and bought a smokepole. Let me start by saying I'm a muzzleloading beginner. I didn't go whole hog and get a Knight, TC, or Savage. I'm just easing into this whole blackpowder scene so I started off a...

Well, it's that time again. Tennessee is starting to post info on its dove fields, and the season starts in exactly one month. I'm getting the hankering to get out the 1100 and whip my wingshooting into shape. Last year's opener was my first time dove hunting, and while I did okay (9 birds)...

Am thinking of ordering one for a P32. Any comments? Also, there's a Standard and a Limited Edition model. I sort of have my eye on the Limited Edition for $10 more. Anybody have this version?

Anybody got one on their shotgun? I don't recall much being said here about these lights, and I know most folks prefer the Surefires. However, I can get a Streamlight much cheaper, and I'd like to know more about how both the mount (which looks kind of small; see here...

I recall reading here that a sizable shipment of Maks were imported into the US and would be available soon from various distributors. Anybody heard anything? Store? Price?

Since reading about the potential for rimlock with hollowpoints in a .32 ACP, I've begun carrying FMJ. What I'm wondering though is why manufacturers can't design a hollowpoint round that is slightly longer and therefore less likely to result in rimlock. Would it make the bullet too heavy...

I'm curious here how some of the members here respond to this question. I'm sure that the answers are very different for each of us, but that we have a great deal of overlap. These reasons we hunt might be personal ones, or they might be wider in their perspective. I hunted a bit as a...

And here, I'm not talking about trophy deer or turkey. Which one do you think is the more difficult to take in the field?

A minor Nashville celebrity anyway. The kid and his accomplice apparently had a Tech 22 and a Bulgarian AK. Here's the link to the complete story and the follow up story: http://www.tennessean.com/local/archives/02/05/17728349.shtml?Element_ID=17728349...

Recently completed my first season of turkey hunting, and I thought I'd share my successes with the TFL'ers here. I hunted a couple of times last season with my uncles down in Georgia--just enough to figure out the basics. I used those basics this year and wound up taking two birds, a jake and...

I have come into a used Remington Express with the flat black parkerized finish. It has some wear on the finish, however, and some areas have simply been blued (probably cold blued). These spots don't match the original non-glare parkerizing. I was thinking of setting up this shotgun for...

Finally finished monkeying around with an 870 to my satisfaction. I had a plain-jane 870 Express with a 28" barrel. Over time, I've gradually added the following: 20" IC barrel with rifle sights, Choate 8-shot extension kit, Choate hi-vis follower, synthetic fore end and butt stock, sling...
