I'm sorry for the length of this but maybe someone can clear something up for me. First, let me preface my following comments by saying that I am a long time gun owner, pro 2A 100%, had my carry permit but it has expired and I need to renew it, and that I think what this individual did to stop the T...

Back when the MCPPA of 2003 passed (the first time) my company (like many I assume) made record time in posting "no guns allowed" signs. They followed that up with a company wide email indicating that even though a law had passed allowing people with a permit to carry a firearm on their pe...

I went to the first link and watched all four since there numbered 1/4/, 2/4, etc. What I want to know is how much does the guy get paid that's standing there being an idiot? I thought from the linked video that the one guy was just shooting low and to the right just barely clipping the target (stil...

I was thinking the same thing in that unless you use subsonic ammo you're still going to be hearing the crack of the bullet breaking the sound barrier which I believe is still above the threshold for hearing damage. Indoors I think that would still be an issue (as would other shooters anyway if you'...

I'm absolutely floored. I have been out of the loop for a while and didn't know the status of pretty much anything going on gun related until I just got an email from someone telling me a bill legalizing suppressors in MN has become law!! Wow. Much like the Carry bill, I never thought this day would...

I just read that they originally thought the woman shot the man before shooting herself but that upon reviewing the forensic evidence it was actually a bullet fired by a police rifle that killed the man. I also read something else that I thought this was very interesting and important to think about...

I'm curious on this one. I've read that the law doesn't specifically say "handgun" and while the permit says "Pistol", the actual wording of the law allows a person to carry whatever firearm they wish whether it be a pistol, revolver, AR-15, shotgun, etc. Granted you may get som...

I guess I find it very hard to believe that someone would loose part of a finger simply from having it in the way of the cylinder gap. I can see maybe getting a burn but the idea of losing part of a finger just seems a bit much. Perhaps I'm naive having never been victim to that type of injury but I...

Probably would have been shorter to ask "Does anyone's place of work ALLOW employees to carry?" :) Mine doesn't and as soon as the law changed on carry they were very prompt in making clear in no uncertain terms that guns were not allowed in the building or in the parking lot (including ve...

I haven't built an AR from parts myself (I have looked into it quite a bit) but I don't think there is anything that you can put together that you can't take apart. From what I've seen, most things that require a pin can be removed by removing the pin. People replace/upgrade trigger groups all the t...

Whoever came up with the idea of reality shows ought to be shot, twice. It is the absolute worse thing that could have ever happened to television. It's great for the networks since they don't have to pay real actors, real money. They make a fortune on it. They actually get half the people watching ...

Someone beat me to it. I posted the same thought in another form.. They simply don't show how many shots DIDN'T hit the target. No small feat to simply not show the ones that missed. Could he simply have picked up a 35 pound rifle off hand and hit a target 1,000 feet away on the first shot, sure. Do...

First, glad to hear you are ok with no missing digits (or anything else). Second, assuming it wasn't an overcharged round or a squib (or some other barrel obstruction), are you going to be contacting the gun manufacturer at all to see if they have any suggestions or if they want to perhaps study the...

I pocket carry a S&W 340PD Airlite with Crimson Trace laser grips. It's a .357Magnum but you can shoot .38s through for practice or carry if you prefer less recoil. And, with full house .357 Magnum loads it does recoil big time. I have very large hands so it's what I'd consider brutal but manage...
