    Two questions about my Remington 870...

    I took my 870 to the range to pattern it- does a nice job as long as you have a good cheek-weld. A guy before me on the range didn't hit the paper from 18-20 yards with the same gun! I was surprised to see no holes in the paper- proper aiming is important even with shotguns! Anyway, two...

    Loaded chamber practical issues...

    This is not a question about the safety of carrying a modern handgun with a round in the chamber. I have confidence in the safety of this practice. My question is about some practical issues. Those who keep firearms loaded and chambers charged for home defense: Do you do this only with...

    Dilemma...

    Hey All, I've got the bug, and I'm wondering if I should dive in or exercise self-control. I currently have a few long guns, including a shotgun, for home defense and/or SHTF scenarios (hey, I live in earthquake country after all). The same goes for handguns, and therein lies the problem...
