    Negligent Discharge at Gun Show

    This weekend a dealer negligently discharged a firearm during set-up at a local gun show. My wife and I were there as we sell at all our local shows. Thank God nobody got hurt...but the individual is facing charges and word is their FFL is in jeopardy. I post this because all too often people...

    The Dome

    I've been watching The Dome. It's a fascinating premise. An entire town - and then some since it seems to include farms outlying the town - is suddenly encapsulated in an impenetrable clear dome that they can't escape. Can't dig under it - can't get through it. Of course there are lots of Plot...

    It's not Three Thugs - it's Gun Violence

    I don't know if this is the right forum but right now I'm so spitting mad I can hardly see straight. By now you've probably heard of the 22 year old collegiate baseball player from Australia who was murdered by three teenage thugs who admit to doing it because they were bored...

Family member accepts an offer from a collector to buy the whole lot. The collector isn't an FFL. Does current Colorado law require a...

    Charter Arms Customer Service Kudos

    I've mentioned that we have a Charter Undercover that my wife uses regularly at the range. She really likes it and is quite good with it. Well it's been acting up - not cycling properly. last time out it really gave her trouble. Bad timing - both in the gun and in life as she's taking a live...

    Gun Safe - Crazy Enough that it Just Might Work?

    Talking with friends this morning. Topic of Gun Safes came up. Expensive - heavy. I just want a fairly secure place to store guns and ammo. So - here's what popped into my head... 1: Get a big honkin' freezer off of Craigslist. They can be had for $100 or less - even for free. 2: Empty and...

    So what are people in Colorado doing about FTF Background checks

    Now we're obliged to do BGC's on person to person sales ... so how's that working out? I was at Green Mountain Guns yesterday - just browsing :rolleyes:. They won't do FTF BGC's. We chatted about it a bit and it seems they just aren't sufficiently comfortable about the law and its...

    We just got back from Cheyenne where we went as a vendor to the Wyoming Sportsman's Gun Show. While there we had the opportunity to visit the adjacent Laramie County Shooting Sports Complex and meet with Keith Tast, the facility manager. All I can say is - if only we had such a well run well...

    What would a good gun show look like to you?

    I started this as a reply to the earlier "I don't know why I bother going to gun shows" thread but thought it should really be a stand alone so here goes... In your opinion, what would make for an ideal gun show? I don't mean in fantasy land where everything you've ever wanted is there at half...

    The Watermelon Demonstration

    This weekend at the Gun Show a family with small kids stopped by to check out our holsters. In conversation the mom told me how they instill respect for firearms into their children. They have land - they've set up a range. They take the kids out at some point and show them what happens to a...

    Using a police simulator to train civilians

    last night my wife was at the bi-monthly Ladies Night at the shooting range. It's really a great program - they do class presentations...she gets range time with an instructor..it's a great deal. Last night they had a police simulator and she got to participate. It sounds like a very useful and...

    Is what I've just seen typical?

    Went to the Antique and Collector Gun Show in Denver today. I'm not particularly a C & R guy but I like guns and it was a Gun Show so why not :-) Lots of beautiful guns - lots of tables full of guns ranging in condition from pristine to nasty. More revolvers than I've seen in one place at one...
