I am thinking about getting into business for myself, part time, consulting people about home security, maybe doing some installation of security systems. Is there any small businesses that you guys know of that do this type of work? Someone you have personal experience with, that would take a...

OK guys, as I am contemplating the next rifle purchase, I feel like I have two gaps in my non-PC "arsenal". I've got a Bushmaster AR (with a Norinco MAC-90 as backup) for a light carry rifle; a FAL (with a Mauser in .308 as backup) for a heavy battle rifle, and a 10/22 for the various cleanup...

A friend of mine was showing me a Colt Sharpes rifle he has had for years. It is a single shot falling block rifle in .30-06 with a 26" bull barrell. The gun is in pristine condition and never been fired. The gun was apparently a prototype because there isn't the first marking on the whole...

OK, I just happened across a piece of information that threw a curve into my next anticipated firearm purchase. I am an avid Ruger pistol fan with little experience with their rifles except the 10/22 (which I like). The thought of a pistol calibre carbine has always been a tickle at the back of...

I have recently acquired a computer that I have deemed acceptable to become my new "shop" computer. My current shop computer is a Toshiba 25 Mhz laptop with 2 Megs of RAM, a 80 Meg HD and a monochrome display. I hate to get rid of "Ole Pokey", because she _has_ been good to me, but I figured it...

Mrs. HP and myself are looking into building our dream house in the next upcoming years. I have a strong background in architecture and plan on designing the house ourselves (read: myself). I employ home security/defense practices in our current house, and consider myself quite versed in them. I...

Does anyone have a range review for this shotgun? TIA

I have decided to take a martial arts class to facilitate my Personal Protection Instructor training. I have a friend that has offered to teach me Tae-kwon-do. He is a third degree black belt and he seems to be very tradition oriented with his teaching. Having no martial arts training, my...

I hope that you people can help me. I am looking for an article that came out within the past few months that outlines advice given by Clinton to children about how to handle a gun they find. The quote by Clinton matched the Eddie Eagle program word for word. The funny thing is, I can't find...

I was wanting to purchase some pepper spray units for the wife, but I must admit that I am rather ignorant about them. I assume that 15% is more potent than 10%, but a local LEO told me that this is not always the case. Would anyone care to comment on this? I would also be curious to see what...

A guy threw a rifle in with a few guns I purchased the other month. He said it was a 1916 Spanish Mauser and I took it at face value. After looking around for info on it, I read that the Spanish Mausers are either F-7 or f-8 with their serial numbers starting with 7 or 8 to tell which they are...

I'm looking for the right forum, I hope this is it... Does anyone know of any good websites that deal with home defense? Web searches always end up with Home Security and Security Alarms. I did find some info in the rec.guns faq, but thats about it. I am basically interested in getting some...
