      Can I use spouse's firearm to W&C?

      I've only had my W&C for a couple of months, and I am experimenting with different firearms/holsters/etc. My wife has a firearm that I would like to W&C and try out. The firearm in question was purchased by her through a local FFL sometime about 20+ years ago. This was all legit and pre-HQL...

      Had a buddy tell me that carry of >10 rounds is illegal. Is this true? Assume the mag is legally obtained from out of state. First I heard of this.

      HQL v W&C

      Would someone please explain the scenario where if you get your W&C you get or don’t need the HQL? I don’t understand how that works. I’m asking on behalf on my daughter who has some girlfriends that want to take the W&C training but don’t have their HQL.

      Q about red dot with a fixed front sight AR-15

      Hey guys, I'm looking at a Windham HBAR carbine and it has the removable A4 carry handle and what appears to be a fixed front sight. How does it work with the front sight when you use a red dot? Do you have to take off the front sight? Does the red dot have to be mounted high? Or am I...

      Attorney Recommendations

      I just saw the CCW insurance thread and I started thinking about who I would call in the event that I had to protect myself, or really, for any other reason that I may need a criminal law attorney/lawyer. I really don't know any criminal law lawyers. How does this work if you need one? Do...

      W&C - Restrictions & Informal Review

      Hey Guys, The good news is that I got my permit, but the bad news is that is restricted. Today I requested an informal review to remove the restriction entirely. I was curious if anyone else has done this and whether or not they were successful. I know it depends on the specific details...

      CZ 457

      I actually won this rifle in a raffle. It’s the AT ONE .22 with a 24” barrel. Anyway, I got a 4x12 Sig Sauer scope on it. I took it out for the first time and I was duly impressed once I got it sighted in. I was hitting dimes at 50 yards consistently with match ammo. When I tried cheaper...

      Recommend a Good Compass

      Anyone have a cost effective compass they can recommend? The .mil ones are $86 on AMZ. I bought a cheapo one and it's worth every bit of the $13 that I paid for it LOL.

      S&W 586/686 Accuracy

      I have a 586 with a 4" barrel and a 686 with a 5" barrel. I'm curious as to what would be considered good groups/accuracy at 25 yards. I just tried to sight in the 686 at about 10 yards and I'm not real happy so far. I feel like I should be getting better groups and closer to the bulls eye...

      Need Some Trap Shooting Tips

      About 2 years ago I decided to get serious about shooting trap and I bought a nice Silver Pigeon, thinking that it would improve my score. I've kept track of my results over the past 2 years and I'm in the 18-21 range, which is not bad, but I want to do better. My trend line shows that I'm...
