    Finally, after 9 months...Stamps.

    After 9 long excruciatingly painful months, my stamps finally arrived. Now I can go ahead and finish the builds I wanted to do, except in 3 days I'm leaving for a trip out west and gone for 3 weeks. Argggggh!

    Malice Clips

    Thee SINGLE most aptly named piece of gear of all pieces of gear of any hobby anywhere on any planet in the universe. It took a max of 5 minutes for me to develop a plethora of malice for the inventor of this gear, and a deep seated hatred for everyone in the industry that decided to make it...

    Plate carrier/chest rig for BIG guy.

    My buddy is 7' tall and weighs in (at the moment) at about 375#. I'm not sure his actual chest measurement other than he usually wears like a XXXL or XXXXL shirt, never mind the torso length. Anyway, big big fella. I don't have much physical experience with carriers or chest rigs but I'm...

    Definition of insanity....

    Everybody knows.... First pistol I bought was a used G17. It was in great shape, a good deal and all that, but I didn't shoot it all that well, and it was ugly as snot, so I sold it. So with all that past history I figured it would be a good idea to buy a new Glock 22 in .40 caliber...

    Magpul window mags/. ON SALE!

    Really. LGS has them on sale for a smoking deal of $24.99/ea, limit 3. Hey, considering recent events that IS a smokin deal. I knuckled under and picked up the limit. They've been on the shelf a while actually and if still there tomorrow I might hit it again, you know, just to do my part...

    Trust naming rules:

    Yes, I've searched. I'm not looking for what needs to be engraved, that info is fairly easy to find. What I'm looking for is the BATF rules on what you can name your trust. If for some reason I wanted to name it the Scooby Doo Trust, or the さむらい Trust, is there a rule against it? I'm...

    Gas Blocks: Clamp on, set screw, other?

    Relatively obvious question there. I'm slowly accumulating pieces/parts for my build and that's the latest question causing smoke from my ears. Pros/Cons of each, or is it just pick one and go? Ar15. Yep, AR. I provided that information when I originally made this post. Yep, sure...

    Winchester Model 94: Cerracote sacriledge?

    1978 model I believe and the finish is less than stellar. Any particular reason it would be considered an act of utmost evil if I sent it off and had it coated? Nothing goofy like Digital Urban C.O.D. Edition Camo, or anything like that, but something a bit more mundane. Not that it really...

    What is a "pre-ban" magazine?

    I was digging around in my garage today and came across something I had completely forgotten I possessed. It was a couple of surplus mag pouches, and one of them still had a pair of 30 rnd magazines in it, metal. The floor plates are stamped ADVENTURE LINE MFG. CO. PARSONS. KS. U.S.A., and...

    For those of you so inclined. Personally I won't be buying anything from them in the immediate future, but it's there and it's a free world, so the info is passed. :)

    The Rifle I Didn't Want...

    So I headed into the LGS yesterday after having FINALLY made up my mind to purchase the AR I've been waffling over for weeks. I have a couple of lowers coming that I intend to build but I wanted to buy a ready made just to have platform in front of me for reference, though I don't expect to...

    Started a fire....

    Was at the indoor yesterday getting in some more time with the PX4 .40 I bought, along with my big-handed buddy working with his S&W. I offered up mine, and he responded in like kind. Normally I don't use the lane closest to the wall but in this case he had and we were doing our swap shooting...

    PSA lowers available...for now.

    Just jumped on a pair of these for myself and as of right now they are still available. If you're wanting some I'd say jump now. One, because they may not last long and 2, because if the latest price is any indication they'll probably go up AGAIN the next time around.

    PX4 Owners: weigh in on a couple problems

    I bought a used PX4 .40 full size at the LGS a little while ago. At the range I've had a couple problems and I'm curious if I have a gun issue, or an idiot behind the gun issue. When purchased it literally looked as if it had never been fired. Absolutely spotless, inside and out. Even the...

    16" barrel on a pistol. Roll with it. :)

    Bear with me. Hypothetical situation. Let's assume you buy a pistol, pick your poison, but for the sake of this discussion we'll say it's a glock. Now you buy a 16" barrel for it and stuff it into a Roni type system. Would I be correct in my assumption that despite the 16" barrel you...

    New additions...

    Picked up a new Ruger SR22 a week or so ago and finally got it to the range yesterday. I burned through about 150 rnds of some bulk crap I found in one of my sheds that's probably been out there for years. I figured if it could eat that crap it would eat just about anything. :). Out of the...

    Big Handed shooter. I mean BIG

    I have a buddy interested in getting into handgun shooting, with an eye towards eventual CCW. I know there are some "big hands" threads going but....this guy is just shy of 7' tall (yes), about 375 lbs, with hands like a freakin baseball glove. His pinky ring hangs loose on my thumb, and I'm...

    Merry Christmas to Me. Don't laugh...

    Ok, so it might not really fit the profile of this forum but....I bought a Benjamin Marauder .25 cal. Fun to play with and cheap! Local varmints beware... :)

    SBRs, ARs, M-series, etc. School me.

    I'm in the market for an SBR. Make and manufacturer are undetermined at this point. I have some ideas, but they are relatively uninformed ideas, so I'm hoping this thread can help lead me the right direction without devolving into a fan-boy slug fest. :) Basic Want List: Not too...

    Trusts, LLCs, & SBRs Oh My....

    I have interest in purchasing one or my NFA items in the relative near future. My dilemma is in what fashion to go about doing it. Yes, I've done searches and picked up bits here and there but sifting the wheat from the chaff can be problematic since most threads devolve into something...
