This seems like the place to post this. A friend of mine has a .38 Colt double action with a box of issued ammunition (ammo is still in plastic wrap, dated May 5 1913). I'm interested in the pistol, but seems to me the ammo would be better appreciated by a collector. Anybody have any...

Was thinking of going with an M16 as my first FA, but need some clarification. Is it just the auto sear that is controled, or is it all the different parts of the fire control group (selector, sear, and bolt carrier)? Assuming it's just the sear, is it legal to drop a registered auto sear into...

Spoon just found this little website, and I think it would be a good idea for the more paranoid of TFL to read it through: http://people.csail.mit.edu/rahimi/helmet/ :neener:

Hey... anyone here near Goose Creek, willing to take on a shooting buddy? Have a young female friend there, who's a fairly good shot, and is looking for people to shoot with. You'l have to provide toys, but she's willing to help pay for ammo. Any takers?

I recieved this from the president of another BACA chapter (see my sig, "No Child..."). Although I can't see this IMMEDIATELY causing trouble for shooters, it could get pushed. PM or email me, and I'll send you the letter files... >Attached are four (4) letters, two letters one addressed to the...

A friend asked me the other day about modifying a 1911 into a full auto. Now I have tried figuring it out every way possible (including detailing my officer's model, to check the interaction of the parts), and I keep seeing a big problem (other than the legal issue). If you modified the sear to...

In a discussion about DU on the Pink Pistols mailing list, the following was posted. Thought those here might appreciate it. Mods feel free to move if it's in the wrong place... This is the same group who went through angst sturm and drang (no umlauts on my keyboard, grammarians) when faced...

Hi all... greetings from the Land of Smiles! Parents decided to take the wife and I on their yearly trip to Pataya, Thailand. While sitting in the hotel room, waiting for mom to get dressed, I started flipping through the little visitor's booklet provided: and what should I find mentioned, but...

Well... Wisconsin is loosing one female shooter, but y'all are gainin' her. She's my wife's best friend, and she's gonna be needin' shootin' buddies soon (she'll be out there by the end of the week). So... since TFL has some of the friendliest/most knowledgeable shooters I've ever seen, I...

oops... ignore...

Hey all... A friend of my wife got her first pistol for Christmas, a knock-off of the Browning Hi Power. Unfortunately, it has the tiny original thumb safety, which is hard for the lady to operate. Any suggestions for replacing it?

Just got a new toy: EMF Sharps 45-70 heavy barrel. Now, I know this is acceptable for long-range side matches, but what kinda opinions do y'all have on it? To me, it feels real nice. Will be trying it at the range tomorrow, but I figured I should ask and see if anyone out there has had any...

The "Winter Solstice" thread got me to thinking: is there any interest out there in pagan gunowners mailing list? I'd be willing to set up and run such, if people are interested in having something like that. Opinions? Suggestions for names (I like PGIG: Pagan Gunowners Internet Group) would...

Need some advice here: Just picked up an AK with the old bottom folding stock. Does anyone else have one, and have an idea how to make it a bit more comfortable to shoot? Having nothing more than that little rail against the side of my chin for support screws with my sight stability. Suggestions?

Ok... not exactly gun related, but I need info... What course of action can a person take in case of bio attack? Not talking about "prevention", but the aftermath. And we're talking about someone who lives in an apartment in a major city. Suggestions?

I recently picked up a Swedish Mauser in 6.5mm that had been converted to a scout configuration. Not having any problems with it, but I AM curious as to which model the silly thing is! Markings are sparse, and under the scope. Any suggestions?

Just got my Mause back from having some work done, including replacing the trigger. However, now the trigger doesn't seem to want to reset. After most shots (not all), I have to manually move the upper section (barrel extension) back a bit, then forward. It's fully lubed (possibly overlubed)...

So, can anybody tell me exactly what you need to do in order to get licensing for full auto? I was thinking of trying to pick up something like a Sten next year, and maybe a Tommy. Had a guy at the local range tell me that the ATF fee is only around $200, and that it's good for life...

Does anyone make these? Comments/ reviews appreciated.

Is there a Fobus Mag Pouch for the USP45 compact? What about a holster? Thanks.
