    Shipping ammo

    I have a friend who moved to Connecticut and wants ammo. Apparently you need to have a permit to purchase ammo and the office that supplies that permit is closed! Is there any way I can send him some? Or would that vote Connecticut law to ship to that state? I told him he should just drive to...

    Canted Reticle (Vortex Crossfire II)

    I was really upset with my Aero Precision mount because I THOUGHT my Vortex Crossfire II 4-12x40 kept twisting! I'd level the rifle, and try to level the scope (off the turrets, I know they aren't perfect) and the reticle kept going canted! I tried the plumb line, get it perfect, and it would...

    Accountability (Firearms in a car, plain view!)

    I work in an office setting, about 500 employees on site. I got back from lunch on Wednesday and glanced in my parking-neighbor's car and saw a few rifle cases, a range bag, used targets, and a pile of ammo boxes. Then I noticed the doors were unlocked :( I debated what to do and decided to at...

    Medical Training

    Wondering how often you all take any medical training, or maybe you don't take any! I know that the Red Cross does a very basic First Aid/CPR/AED class that covers the basics. But are there classes where you live that would cover bigger owies? I'm talking major bleeding, car accidents, GSWs...

    My Employer Bought Me a Canik TP9SF

    I won an award at work and it came with $400 in gift cards to Cabela’s. I have heard some not-so-great things about buying guns at Cabela’s, but gift cards are gift cards! I waited for a good sale, but nothing came. I happened to see their price match policy included website matches. Well on...

    "Keep and Bear" - Movie on Amazon Prime

    I am 50 minutes into a 1hr 16min documentary on Amazon called "Keep and Bear." It is really well made, a very level headed and thought provoking look at beginning firearm ownership. Also, interesting information on AR-15s. I recommend it, and would also suggest it to non-gun people who want...

    LCP II modification

    Shooting the LCP II, I find it as accurate as it needs to be, reliable, and the trigger is great (for what it is...) I really didn't like the sight picture, so I added a little nail polish and it changed everything! Way easier to pick up. Two coats of white, two coats of "road cone" orange...
