I was under the assumption it was illeagal for the gov't to keep a registry of the guns you own. Is this true? In Mass. the Dept. of Public Safety apparently has a list of gun owners and the guns they own. Is this legal?

George I have a Para-Ordinance P14-45 Limited. I went to clean it tonight, and the end of the slide stop ( the round button end on the right side) fell out in my hand. The stop itself, and enough of the pin to get through the barrel link, stayed in the gun. The part from the stop to the break...

That reason is quite clear. Many states are writing laws that require testing, and certain safety items on new guns. It is also quite clear that this is going to snowball. If you think that all of these manufacturers are going to make individual guns with different charectaristics for...

Here is my question at the range the other day I shot my S&W 686 revolver. I curled my trigger finger around the trigger (used second pad of finger). The accuracy was amazing. When I tried the same technique with my Usp 40c and my Ruger p89 9mm, and Sig p239 in .357sig I did not have the same...

Ok Dan Wesson pointmen have been approved by the Mass Ag for sale here. I am looking for a 1911 and the only other new one that will soon be approved is the S&W 945. That said I was gonna look at a Para p14-45, but it is the very basic gun and would probably cost me more than I can afford to...

I have a Sig P239 in .357sig. I want a .40s&w barrel for this gun. Should I order an after market or Sigs'. Also someone told me I need to send my gun to Sig in order to get the barrel. Does this sound right to you? Thanks for your help in advance.

If you live work or play in Mass and are a TFL'er interested in some kind of activity to get together and meet other TFL'ers, post here or send me an email. It would either be shooting or striper fishing, or something like that.

I just got word from my local gun shop, that Sig sent them a letter stating that Mass compliant Sigs will be on the way soon. They will be the same models with an M at the end of the model number. It will be interesting to see what changes have been made. My guess is hidden second serial...
