    Looking to move IL to TN

    In response to a lot of "Can't blame you there!" I will say I have finally had enough. I have had enough of the politics and the taxes and the hypocrisy. I am tired of a city running the state, and am looking to get the heck out. I don't want to be 65 wishing I had gone when I was 45. I have...

    New SC Justice a hunter?

    I thought this as interesting given the votes she cast regarding the Second Amendment. Could it be perhaps that all it takes is a little experience to start swaying opinions and possibly Supreme Court justices? Go figure. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2012/11/elena_get_your_gun.html

    Happy Father's Day!

    To my Dad, who introduced me to the world of firearms, and taught me how to shoot. To my Grandfather, who taught me the finer points of hunting and the appreciation of a fine gun. Thanks. What did your dad/granddad do for you with firearms?

    YOUR gun

    Hey All! Been thinking about something for the last few weeks, and I was wondering if anyone had gone through the same thing. I have been involved with firearms for the last 21 years, competing in CAS and IDPA, buying and selling nearly every kind of gun out there. I've owned nearly every type...

    S&W 1911

    Hey Gang! Been thinking about a S&W 1911 in 9mm. I saw one at the LGS and they were asking $1300. While I can afford it, my question is whether or not it's worth it? I can pick up a SA 1911 in 9mm for about $300 less. Thanks,

    The MAUL

    This is freaking awesome. A shotgun that fires taser charges? Those Aussies are nuts, but they sure win style points. http://gizmodo.com/5823937/holy-****-maul-semi+automatic-shotgun-shoots-taser-cartridges-and-is-called-maul Sorry for the language, but it's the actual title.

    Pistol Caliber Uppers

    Hello All! Looking for advice. I am looking to get a 9mm or .40 cal upper for my AR platform. It is difficult to shoot rifle calibers where I live so I want to be able to practice with the platform. I know RRA, CMMG, and Olympic Arms make complete uppers, but I have been having a hard time...

    RRA 40 S&W Upper

    I'm building another AR, and I decided to go with a pistol caliber upper. I know Olympic Arms has uppers that use modified full size magazines. I was thinking of going with the RRA upper, but I am having a hard time finding any information on them. Can anyone point me to a review? I am...

    Looking at a couple of pistols, opinions wanted..

    I've been getting the itch for a new firearm, and lately my tastes have been running towards more 'seasoned' firearms. My last purchase was a S&W 24-3. Anywho, I have been looking at the Colt 1903 .380/.32 and the FN Model 1910. WHile I can purchase both, I was looking to get only one for...

    SIG P226 Conversion

    Question for the experts, I have a Standard SIG P226 in 40 cal. I have seen the conversion kits that will change a P226 in .22 to 9mm, .357SIG, and .40 S&W. Can I use one of these kits on my P226 to change it from .40S&W to 9mm?

    Man shoots himself at local IDPA competition

    At the local IDPA match I attended today, a man managed to shoot himself in the small finger of his left hand, nearly severing the top joint of his pinky. Fortunately, one of the shooters is an EMT, and was able to give the man medical treatment before taking him to the local hospital...

    New Baby!

    Managed to pick up a S&W Model 24-3 a little while ago. 6 1/2" barrel Wasn't sure if I was going to shot it or just hang on to it for a while, but an older gentleman asked me why I would marry the prettiest girl in town and not sleep with her? He had a point, and we're heading to the range...

    Wow. Sticker shock.

    Went to a local gun shop today. While I expect their prices to be competitive, I was not prepared for what was there. $1k for most Smiths and SIGs, a used Colt Cobra for $695, a used686 for $595, and more. The selection is top notch, but you sure pay for it. I guess I just wasn't prepared to see...

    SIG x-change kit

    Question for those who know better than I (That would be you guys) I have a SIG P226 in .40 S&W. I noticed SIG has X-change kits for the .22 P226's, converting them to full centerfire calibers. Would such a kit work on my existing P226? I would be interested in getting a 9mm kit, if...
