So, today (about 20 minutes ago actually) I witnessed what could have been a horrible thing. A very pretty blond girl, couldn't have been more than 18, is standing at a corner with a German Shepherd on a leash, waiting for the crosswalk to turn green. This is a three way intersection, and...

Silly question, but I swear I have an actual reason to be asking. If one were shooting off of a yacht at targets from 600 meters in, is there anything to keep in mind? I assume negative and positive deflection becomes an issue during hard swells? I'm thinking a 20" M1A with bipod, 4 power...

Out of all the various 1911's on the market today under $1,000. Which make and model is MOST reliable right out of the box. I want something that'll take anything I feed it and ask for more. Mostly interested in 5" .45's but if you have suggestions for something else I'm curious to hear it.

I'm considering my first NFA purchase, and I have a couple of questions as far as what I'm getting into etc... I'm thinking what I'd like to do is get a FA M-16 lower, the lower is what gets registered and once I have it I can put whatever upper I'd like on it (including SBR uppers) and be fine...

Hopefully this is the right forum. My dad has an LWRC M6A2 he's going to be puting an optic on. I've had experience with the Eotech system, but have heard good things about Doctor red dots. Can anyone compare and contrast the two for me? Thanks so much.

I posted this on Ohioccwforums.org, but thought it might get some traffic here as well. For those of you who haven't been following it, here's a summary and a time line of the crimes the accused murderer has committed. http://news.cincinnati.com/article/20090311/NEWS0107/903110313/1163...

Now usually I'm a huge proponent of high capacity automatics for pretty much everything. That having been said, I'm starting to really like the idea of using a revolver for my main CCW, with one of my polymer wonders being reserved for when I know I'm going into a bad neighborhood, or somewhere...

Anyone have any suggestions/personal experience for a good side folding stock for an 870? Specifically one that's pretty solid and won't interfere with the action when it's folded. Thanks!

I'm curious how many of you keep a car gun, and if so, what it is. Up until Ohio decided loaded magazine = loaded gun I had an FAL in the trunk. Now it's an 870 with slugs and 00 buck in a bandoleer right next to the gun. So what's everyone else have?

165 grain DoubleTapAmmo (http://www.doubletapammo.com) Gold-dot after being fired into water filled milk jugs. Made it to the back of the 4th and was recovered as seen. 1.41" of expansion, 99% weight retention, for those of you who are interested in that sort of thing. :D

Anyone haev any personal experience with the M&P 9 Pro? I'm thinking of trading for one for CCW (yes I can comfortable carry a pistol that size all day). I like Glocks quite a bit, but have recently been moving more towards the ergonomics of the M&P. So, yeah, anyway. Anyone have any personal...

http://news.aol.com/article/virginia-tech-stabbing/314021 Maybe they should ban kitchen knives on school property too? Too bad campus carry hasn't been gotten through yet. I highly suggest everyone go and check out http://concealedcampus.org/ and make donations/offer any other support you can...

I've picked up an Enfield chambered for .308 which is amazingly accurate for me, and is beat up enough that I don't mind using it as a utility rifle. I know what I'm going to run through it for game etc... but I'm curious as to what people think I should use for two-legged varmints. I.E. out of...

Pleasantguywhopacks posted this over on Ohioccwforums.org and I thought you guys would be interested. As pointed out, interesting how another caller mis-identifies the GG as the BG. Weapon used was a Springfield Armory .40 SW. 2 shots fired DRT, not that that really matters.

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/bestoftv/2008/12/10/pn.kids.fight.back.cnn Anyone else find this laughable? Too bad we can't trust the teachers with something a little more solid than a #2 pencil to defend children with. Excuse me if this is being discussed somewhere else on the board.

A repost of something I put up on ohioccwforums.org today. So, two nights ago my wife (5 1/2 months pregnant) and I were at the Wal-mart Super Center, on Colerain Ave. right by Ronald Reagan Highway for those of you in Ohio, trying to pick up a couple of things for a photo shoot we had the next...

Is it impolite/rude to ask someone if they've ever had to shoot someone else? Here's why I ask. I was at a friends house yesterday watching football when it came up somehow that not only was I in the army at one point, but I also currently carry a firearm. The friend who's house I was at let...

As I've brought up in the past, my wife and I are expecting our first child (Just found out the other day it's a boy :D) and finances etc... have been more on my mind lately. Up until this point we had been living with my Mother since we spent 3/4 of the year travelling to NYC, LA, Miami, Boston...

If this needs moved then by all means... Thought this would be an interesting topic. Anyone ever had a gun not fire when you really needed/wanted it to? Either through not loading it properly, keeping the safety on, broken firing pin, etc... Just last night I went to shoot a scavenger bird...

A couple of questions. Are neighborhood watches useful? How does one go about organizing one? If you patrol your neighborhood as part of a watch, happen to be armed, and shoot someone, could vigilantism be brought up in court? Anyone have any good/bad neighborhood watch stories? Sorry for...
