      Best strategy for selling a collection

      Sell them on Gunbroker or another gun auction site. Long guns can be shipped to an out of state FFL by an individual if the shop owner wants to accept it. Many do but not all. Make sure to mention in the ad that the buyer needs an FFL that accepts a long gun being shipped by an individual...

      Young Democratic Socialists Violently Assault Police & Gun Owners at Kent State

      Thanks for posting this, I had not heard about it. It really warms the heart to see that Ohio law enforcement provided at least some measure of protection for the numerical minority.

      Influential Republicans working to draft Jeb Bush into 2016 presidential race

      I would like to see Jeb become a candidate. I watched him on Meet The Press and he's not a dolt, but seemed to be very personable, educated and sophisticated. And I doubt that those in the elite circle of GOP donors are dolts or think that he's a dolt. Plus he doesn't have any Washington...

      Need input about muzzleloaders

      The Traditions Pennsylvania Rifle is still being sold in both percussion and flint versions. They're known for being quite accurate rifles due to their 40 inch barrel and long sight radius. Just be sure to buy from a reputable seller that has a return or exchange policy in case it doesn't meet...

      Shotshell Powder Availability

      When I Googled Connecticut, Indiana, I learned that the Indiana Hoosiers played the UCONN Huskies in a basketball game last November in Madison Square Garden: http://scores.espn.go.com/ncb/recap?gameId=400518815 I'm only a hop, skip and a jump away.:hehe:

      Shotshell Powder Availability

      My local dealer is fairly well stocked to the brim with many Alliant powders including kegs of Promo. They also have both of the Alliant shot shell powders for long range loads and for target loads which I didn't take note of their names. What they did run out of early on was Power...

      Ruger LC9 magazine slipping

      My son let me be the first to shoot his "new" used LC9 at a backup pistol plate match and the first few times the mag came loose which prevented it from firing after the first shot or two. At first I thought that I didn't seat the mag properly, but soon realized that the way that I was holding...

      Dixie gun works muzzle loader. Need info.

      A picture is worth 1000 words. Dixie Gun Works has been importing guns for decades now, at least since the 1960's or 1970's, and from many different Italian makers, both as kits and as finished guns. At least a description of the caliber, whether it's a 1/2 stock or full stock, length of...

      Safe Queens: I have none

      I have some safe queens which are simply considered to be collectibles to me. Not that any of them will never get fired, but that if and when they will get fired is totally up to me to decide. Or I can decide to sell them or pass them on to my kids. None of them are too expensive, but they...

      Buying a muzzle loader on Gun Broker

      I've bought a BP rifle from an Illinois dealer who required sending it to my FFL dealer. Unfortunately that's a common practice with Illinois dealers. On the other hand, I've also bought a BP gun from a private Illinois citizen who didn't mind sending it direct to me. We discussed it and he...

      Strange Day At USPS

      The home page of the USPS website has a link to "Contact us" which ends up bringing up a page with various customer service phone numbers. The folks answering the national hotline are usually well informed and correct when they answer questions. Plus it's toll free.

      SCOTUS - Abramski Case Could Overturn Straw Purchase Law

      Although I'm not sure how others feel, whether the straw purchase law ends up being decided to be enforceable or was originally intended by the Congress or not, I can't see why any 2A supporter would object for it to be legal to buy a gun for another eligible person without all of the...

      Charlie Sheen Publishes Poem on Twitter Calling Out Obama on Gun Control

      It should be okay to use National Guardsman or former soldiers hired as police. He's carrying forth an idea that began with the NRA, and many Nnational Guardsman have served overseas. I think that Sheen is wearing his heart on his sleeve and means well. After all his father Martin acted as the...
