    "Shorty Shotty"

    I've stayed with the traditional stock on my 12 gauge. 7 1/2 Birdshot will do the job. Muk......Great job on the weapon.

    An honest news reporter

    A Reality Check indeed. “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms . . . disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes . . . Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an...

    LOL... Between the Mayan Calendar and the hidden Oreo Cookie Predictions, we could be toast. On the other hand I have a 7:30 Dinner date coming over.

    It is an AFG 1, the 2 is shorter in length and width. The front doesn't have the side wraps up onto the quad rail as the 1 did. I got large paws so I needed the extra surface provided by the 1. It sits on a MI Quad Rail. That's a 3X Magnifier sitting behind the Aimpoiint PRO. A friend of mine...

    Excellent choice. I bought one and made some additions. It's a great starting package. I'd also suggest their .22LR Conversion Package. It's a great money saver on ammunition costs.

    Happy birthday to me

    Happy Birthday. An excellent selection. I was making the rounds of the local gun shops yesterday and sales are going through the roof. Mine is coming up in January. Last year I bought a Kimber 1911 to commemorate it, plus a none coincidental retirement. This year, I still debating another such...

    What does "Keyhole" mean?

    Yep!! Like I wrote it's the Internet. Not to get too morbid, but the entry and exit wound thing can get real complex, depending on stance.

    Adding Utah (non-resident) permit

    It took 55 Days from the time I mailed it. Great, no more having to glove box it going through Georgia enroute to Florida.

    Thanks to all the veterans out there!

    Great Picture! I spent a couple of years in Korea and the winters there are something else. 28 Years is quite a career. I appreciate all Veterans and their families who served their country.

    NRA and 51 US Senators have stopped the UN Small Arms Treaty

    So is it allowed or not?

    Politics definitely has a place in a gun forum. Several comments during the last election should serve as an obvious warning that more trouble lies ahead.

    Adding Utah (non-resident) permit

    They cashed the check on Thursday. So we shall have to wait and see. I'm tired of having to glovebox the weapons when I go to Augusta, GA from South Carolina. Utah adds 10 States that I can carry in along with those that have reciprocity with my SC CWP.

    The most effective hardware for home defense

    Should I hear a bump at night; in the Master Bedroom I keep an H&R 12 Gauge, Partner Pump Protector. I in the nightstand is a Walther PPK S-1 or whatever I was carrying that day. The pistol is to keep things steady until I can get to the shotgun. There’s also a cell phone, portable home phone...
