    What, exactly is M1 Thumb?

    I think there is M1 in my future, and I just missed a story on Mailcall about the M1. I told my lovely wife I wanted another battle rifle to go along with my AK-47. She did not turn blue, and that is a good sign. I have heard of M1 thumb, but I don't know what it is.

    Sling mounts for my 870P

    I want to put a sling on my 870P, the kind that will hold a few rounds. I see what appears to be some sort of mounting bracket on the front, but nothing in the stock. So I will have to drill, right? It is a synthetic stock. This bracket under the forearm is square with some sort of a hole...

    How about a CCW / Home Defense section?

    Seems like threads along these lines wind up in handgun, shotgun etc. A centralized place would be nice. Thanks for resurecting this great site!

    Encouraging words from my Missouri State Senator on CCW !

    John Cauthorn met with some local folks on another matter yesterday along with our state representative, Wes Shoemeyer. John authored the CCW bill in the senate last year, but it never came up for vote after the house version of the bill passed by a large margin. Senator Cauthorn is already...

    Different kind of gun buy back.

    Some "for profit" organization is hosting a gun buy back program in Illinois across the river from St. Louis, Alton I think. They have a hotel room and are paying $25.00 for each gun. The thing that makes it different (at least I'm not familar with the concept but that doesn't mean squat), is...

    Home Security

    We live out in the country, its about 125 feet from the entrance to the farm to our house. We are thinking of getting a driveway alarm to alert us when someone drives in. Any of the fine folks here have any experience in this area? As always, any help is greatly appreciated.

    Question about Black Talons

    When I journey into St. Louis for sporting events, we park at a bar in a "not so good" part of town. Sportswriter's bar, nice clientel and a great owner, personal friend. Missouri is a open carry state except for a few cities, St. Louis included. I always take "my little 9mm friend" into the...

    Serious security breech

    Last night, I went to the Rams game in St. Louis. Since the plans for the Edward Jones dome were found in terrorist computers, the authorities announced that security would be tightened. I walked in with my Blackhawk 5,5,10 fanny pack on. All it had in it was my cell phone, binoculars, and a...

    Ever seen or heard of anything like this.

    I live in Missouri, the land of no CCW :mad: I do open carry around town and when at home on the farm. Small town, very gun-friendly. Get some smiles but no grief when open carrying. I would like to come up with a custom made leather belt that would have the following built in/on.... 1 1/2...

    Light at the end of the CCW tunnel in MO.

    There could be a glimer of hope here in the Show-Me state. Old "one-term" Bob Holden, the gov. has repeatedly said he would veto any CCW bill that came across his desk. The state is in terrible financial trouble, mainly caused by the previous gov. the late (I'll sign any spending bill) Mel...

    Another "tricky legal question"

    Living in the land of no-carry, Missouri, I have started traveling with a fully loaded, fully visible, pistol in the car. It is legal to do that. My question is: We drive 120 miles into STL for the Rams games. I would not want to park my truck in downtown STL for 5 hours with a pitol on the...
