      A panic buying tutorial to save $$$

      I have the Commander size version of this, called the Model A211 Raider. I have a total of less than $700 in it. If this one sells for that laughable asking price, mine will be up on GunBroker the same day ka-ching! Randall Stainless Steel Model A131 Service Model

      By the way, Deep Thought, I've been wondering about something, and maybe you can help me with it: What is the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything? No hurry, I can wait.

      Dry Fire.. Break the firing pin?

      "Never dry-fire a rimfire"? I'll have to remember that for my Marlin 60SB, Marlin 922M, Ruger Single Six, Beretta 21A, and any other rimfires I've forgotten to mention. They have all been dry-fired extensively, but I guess I'm taking my chances.

      Proposed Gun License / fingerprint Question

      Manufacturing a firearm is legal. I have done it. You can fabricate a firearm for your own personal use without asking permission from anyone.

      Howard county Fairgrounds

      I was just getting ready to head over there, and decided to check in here first. I guess I'll wait 'til later today, or go tomorrow if it's not too bad. I'll be using my walker and will need to park as close to the hall as possible.

      Gun show sales

      I've bought four cap and ball revolvers from The Regimental Quartermaster in Gettysburg. Walked in, fingered them, paid my money, and walked out with them. I can't imagine selling one face-to-face at a gun show would be any different. Cordite: What cap and ball revolvers are you looking to...

      Reloading Press Mount Question

      Here are two shots of my first reloading bench. The box the press is mounted on was originally part of a set of decorative shelving units. I found it at the local Goodwill store. I drilled a few holes for the bolts, et voila!

      where do you dispose of ammo?

      This has been discussed before. Search is your friend. General Julian S. Hatcher, US Army, addressed this subject before most of us were born. Hatcher's Notebook page 520, Chapter XXI Explosions and Powder Fires. Also, http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=93420&highlight=Hatcher%27s+Notebook

      What are your frustrations with a Lee Progressive press

      I bought a Lee Classic Cast Turret because my research indicated it was a very good value for the money. I didn't get a Load-Master because of what my father often said about cars and machines in general: "The more parts it has, the more things will break." I haven't managed to break anything on...

      Simply Stunning. Good info to testify with

      Lott's work is solid; if it weren't, it would have been discredited long ago. All his critics can do is pick nits, most of which are made up. On the other hand, "Arming America: The Origins of a National Gun Culture is a controversial 2000 book by Michael A. Bellesiles on American gun culture...

      Boy genius says guns bad; proposes that we by them back from ourselves

      Hell, I once scored 30 on a test for Asperger's where a "normal" adult male usually scores 18. It doesn't affect me at... hey, look, pics of cute kittens... When I hear someone touting the benefits of an education, I'm usually tempted to tell them I've met idiots with PhDs.

      Out of State Online Firearm Sale ?s

      IANAL, but I doubt it matters where you are or where the gun ships from. What's important is that the buyer may legally possess it, and you follow the proper procedures for transfer.

      The Water Cooler is a "private" sub-forum where general subjects and madness are allowed (up to a point, of course). Once you've hit post count of 50, you'll automatically be able to see and post in it. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

      Cleaned the Marlin 60 for the first time today

      Most bullets travel the length of the barrel, chamber to muzzle, in less than 2 thousandths (0.002) of a second. Movement of the gun is an extremely small factor in that amount of time, and much too small to measure at the target.
