    Shooting critters in my back yard

    I have an 18.5 inch and 28 inch barrel. What is my reasonable range? How far of a buffer zone should I take into consideration for my neighbors' houses? Shotguns are hard on my shoulder, so I shoot mine rarely. TIA!

    Bushmasters

    I'm interested in getting a Bushmaster for IDPA matches. But there are so many types! My son and I will share it. We like the long hand hold for the "XM15 E2S Dissipator" for the left hand for that reason. The DCM Competition rifle was made for competition, though. What do you all think? TIA

    Newbie question

    I am interested in getting my first rifle. Would really enjoy two sports: The first is long range shooting, as in shooting 1000 yards accurately, with bench rest. The second is competing in tactical matches. I am active in the IDPA, with pistol now. With the rifle, keep in mind that I will...

    Feminists

    Why are feminists more likely to be Democrats and/or believers in big gummint? Because the gummint has immensely helped them. I've been helped by attending a good public school, getting a state scholarship for college, and attending a public graduate school. I had a nice government internship...

    Background checks

    Would you tell me what is wrong with criminal background checks for all gun transactions. Yes, the FBI might keep the records and create a database for future confiscation. We should demand an outside auditor to prove that the data are deleted... Given that we have criminal background checks...

    Dry firing

    I have heard conflicting advice about dry firing, and was wondering if I could generate even more. Love to be confused! ;) Does it harm the firing pin or not? Do I need to buy those funny looking fake bullets to practice with? I have a sig 225. If that makes a difference... Thanks!!!

    Are there any competitions in Colorado this year?

    Please give any details. I think it would be fun, even though I'm sure to be last or thereabouts. Thanks!

    My new pistol

    Keeps jamming. I have sent it back to the manufacturer once, and will a second time. Do they ever just replace the gun? It's a Ruger 50th anniversary commemorative 22. The empty shell doesn't seem to eject well enough, and the new bullet can't get into the chamber. Thanks for your input, Kathryn

    traveling

    Should I take my handgun with me on my car camping trip? I can't get a concealed carry permit in my county. But their brochure did say it's OK to have it in my car and my house. I know that the next county over (Denver) says it's illegal to have the gun in your car unless your moving your...
