    Tribute

    I saw this tribute on The Voice this week and thought it was a class act. Here's what they did for the victims. http://youtu.be/IO64urOFNaY (Sorry it's not really "gun" related but I thought it was a very respectful thing to do for the victims and their families)

    Gun Storage Cabinet

    Well, I really wanted a nice gun safe, but with Christmas around the corner I have to be unselfish and get what I can afford at the moment. So I decided on a Stack-On steel gun cabinet for 8-rifles. I'll really only use it to store 3 rifles, a shotty and some ammo. I know it's a not a "safe"...

    9mm Ammo Advice

    All, Seeing as to how I'm relatively new to 9mm, do you have any advice for long term storage ammo in this caliber?

    Display Models?

    What are your thoughts on buying display model guns? I was looking at another Ruger P95 and the place that sells it only sells what's in the case. In other words, they have no stock, just what they display and I can understand them not wanting a huge inventory as they are a mom and pop shop...

    P95 Mag. Loader

    Man do I feel stupid! I struggled this past weekend to load my mags for my new P95 and I couldn't believe how hard it was to do. I complained and fussed about it being so difficult but figured it would get better over time. I had no idea that the black metallic piece included in the case was...

    Pistol Storage

    So, I've got my pistols all nice and clean and in the safe. I have a two shelf pistol case with a desiccant pack that's more than adequate. Is it okay to leave them in the safe "open air" after a good cleaning and wipe down? Many thanks and I do apologize if this is the wrong place to ask...

    Wanting a larger caliber

    I've got a like new Baretta Neos 4.5" Blued pistol that I'm considering trading in for a larger caliber pistol. I have no idea what the shop will offer me but I'm wanting a larger caliber pistol. I jumped the gun on the Baretta and made an impulse buy as opposed to thinking it out. Anyway, I...
