      What's YOUR favorite self-defense/firearms myth??

      I had a friend in College tell me over and over "You don't need a gun because the police will protect you" I informed her that the job of the police is to investigate the crime AFTER it has been committed. Did she see any police just hanging out in my apartment?

      I found ammo for my 303 Savage! but??

      I know I overpaid, but I was just so happy to see it! It's Hornady Custom - says so on the box. I went to the Hornady site, and I can't find it now. Limited run? Has anyone seen new 303 savage ammo anywhere else?

      Gun Buyback in Terre Haute

      My Dad had a few little cheap POS guns that I really don't want. Wonder if that's the way to get rid of them?

      Take a blind guy to the range?

      Thanks, everyone! Great suggestions and encouragement. I think my friend would have a fun time.

      Shopping for a 22--So Many Choices

      I'll throw my hat in with Ruger. Apparently my Dad's favorite handguns and every one of them has been solid and reliable. The Mark I has been my favorite, but the Single Six is right up there. I don't think you could go wrong with any of the Ruger options.

      Take a blind guy to the range?

      I have a very dear friend. He's the minister who married my husband and I. Since my father passed away we've been talking quite a bit about my Dad, and about the guns I've inherited. My Friend has never fired a gun. He says he would like to, just once. He asked if I would take him to the range...

      Carry for stopping power or better aim?

      I'm trying to decide which gun I really want to carry. Among my collection are a Makarov and a .22 Phoenix. I know, I know, the Phoenix is a junk gun, but my dad and I put several hundred rounds through it without any problems. I'm also pretty good with it - much better than I am with anything...

      Feeler Thread: meet-n-eat

      I'm in. At least I think I'm in. Unless I have something coming up I don't know about...

      How to identify spare cylinder?

      Among the items I got from my father is a loose cylinder. It would appear to be from a 22 of some kind. I have a .357 Blackhawk (probably not), a .22LR Single Six (solid maybe) and a .22LR Bearcat (not sure). What do you guys think? How can I tell what it belongs to?

      What's the difference between Ruger Mark I and Mark III?

      I can take it apart alright. Putting it back together can be a bear. Kind of a 3D jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes I can get it all on the first try, sometimes I have to put it away in pieces and come back later (when I've calmed down). I wish my dad had showed me when I was twelve, or I wish I had paid...

      22LR for self defense

      So... Better to have a .22lr that you're pretty accurate with, or a larger caliber that you don't shoot as effectively?

      What's the difference between Ruger Mark I and Mark III?

      Just wondering. I'm really enjoying my Mark I (until I have to clean it). I saw a Mark III in the shop the other day and wondered what the difference was between models. Thank you.
