Depends. You could load a light enough charge with red dot that it would be safe, pressure wise. The shotgun recipes that are published meet 3 criteria; safety, fit, and performance. Lots of loads can be ok pressure wise, but don’t fit well in the hull, and the performance mismatch makes it a poor c...
I suppose it would be useful for garden pests is about it. A .410 is really only useful for skeet. Try patterning them and compare it to even a 28ga. Admittedly, having any gun is better than none if trouble comes, but the .410 is very iffy. As to why a .410 in an AR, it’s a lot less redesign work ...

What would be interesting is if you have x training, then they are obligated to treat you the way they treat LEO’s involved in a shooting- the immediate send home and set up interview with union rep and lawyers present later so as to not get adrenaline dump statements that get used against you, and ...
And these were the guys who were at least willing to practice! For a while, a few of the metro departments were allowing officers to use paid time to shoot practical shooting matches. I liked meeting these guys. Many were not very good shots, but some were and all who came out regularly got better. ...
What I would find interesting is how private security firms get their class III weapons. There are lots of them that have suppressed full auto equipment, and the latest at that. They don’t qualify as LE. I kind of doubt they are considered dealers, and even if they are, how do they get LE sign off? ...
Yep, and the other part of it was Metcalf owned PASA park (he may still), which was heavily involved in gun training. It struck me as a very self serving position he had. He was correct in that the state can place restrictions, and the courts decide if they are reasonable. The question of training i...
I’m in the no immediate family group also. The collection is large and unusual enough that while I have a spreadsheet with a bunch of information, it’s really not very helpful. Good luck for my brother or sister to find it when I’m dead anyhow… I’ve told him that the best way is find a class 3 deale...
What you said is exactly why places like this are dead… Everyone wants to save, and the sellers all want top $. The sellers look at the auction type places and think it’s worth $$$$$ Buyers remember what stuff sold for 2-3 years ago and think $. Occasionally someone is not mercenary, and they tend t...
If you have the space to save them, it doesn’t hurt to do so. I’ve sent things back for repair in the original boxes. If you are a collector, it makes sense for guns you don’t shoot. Somehow (using a high value rifle as an example) my Dakota .416 Rigby is unlikely to be worth more due to having the ...
