      Need shotgun advice

      awesome, thanks for the replies everyone I think I was just unsure of how a pump shotgun would be perceived for trap from what I had read on various forums, but I don't think it will be a problem after all of your encouraging words This should be a nice birthday present for myself, just 6...

      Laminating Lifetime CC Permit

      When I got my LTCH I tried to get it copied and Laminated at Staples and received the "No, we won't do that, It's illegal" bs, so I went across the street to office max, they didn;t mind making copies and laminating them at all. I probably paid $5 or so but I now have a few signed and laminated...

I have some experience with shotguns, 15+ years ago in boy scouts using pump action 20 gauge I believe shooting clay target, and last year I used my friends Mossberg 500 Cruiser at our local range. My main reason for wanting a...

      .22 handgun for my children. Suggestions?

      The Ruger sr22 may be a good option, I have one and have put about 800 rounds through it with minimal issues (only issues have been maybe 4 underpowered rounds of federal bulk from walmart that fire but don't fully retract the slide), haven't had any issues with cci minimag or velocitor, and my...

      I went M&P because I try to buy American made goods whenever I have the option, but they are both great guns

      I paid off all of my credit cards today

      Thanks again for all of the kind words. I don't feel any need to justify myself and why I had credit card debt, this thread was not about bragging or acquiring rep (I turned rep of months ago), I just wanted to share what I thought of as a personal accomplishment with the community. Since...

      I paid off all of my credit cards today

      Thanks for the kind words everyone. I am happy to be out of credit card debt, and hope to pay off at least one car loan this year. I also plan to stop renting and buy a home, it saves money (mortgage will be cheaper than my rent), and I will be building a little bit of equity monthly. My...

      I paid off all of my credit cards today! All of my families medical bills too (we had a baby last year). I still have have 2 car payments and 2 student loans (1 for me, 1 for my wife), but it is good to be rid of the evils of credit card debt. Just thought I would share :)

      Do you use a laser on your handguns?

      Thanks for all of the input, I think I have a new view on lasers, they are a tool, but as others said training is important. I took NRA Basic Pistol last February, time to take another course, some sort of Defensive pistol. If I were to have gotten a laser it would have been from my quarterly...

      What Weapon Do You Carry

      What weapon do I carry? Well I just order a Kholster for my sr9c earlier today, so soon it will be my sr9c. For the last 9 months I have been carrying a pocket knife though. From April to December I carried a Buck, my daughter picked it out for me for my birthday and has always referred...

      Do you use a laser on your handguns?

      In the past year I have been going through the steps of becoming a responsible handgun owner (taking the NRA basic pistol class, buying a handgun, getting my LTCH, joining a range that I use as often as my budget allows, and of course countless hours of internet research) and I plan to start...

      Colt M16 SPR 22LR

      I picked up a Marlin 795 recently for $125, it is a fun plinker. I wanted a M&P 15-22 but decided to spend about $300 less and the the 795. I see that you are near Noblesville, the last time I was in Bare Arms (the new gun shop by SR 37) they had both an M&P 15-22 and a colt ar style 22, I...

      I am curious if the "Ultimate Cliploader" works with the new Ruger SR-22 mags... anyone try that yet? I considered buying it to try, but not sure if I will just be wasting $24 (Amazon Prime has em) --edit-- I guess I will answer my own question as some google... It seems as though the answer...

      Gun shop

      You could always try IndyGunSafety in Fishers. I took my NRA Basic Pistol course there, shortly after that course my wife and I stopped in and spent well over an hour working with the owner getting all of our questions answered and handling over a dozen handguns. My wife really liked that she...

      What to buy next...

      Good point, her birthday is 2 weeks after mine, I will be sure to get her something special. She was eyeing the LCR when we went to the 1500 in December :): or maybe just some jewelry... I would agree, but I am not aware of any US made AK-47 rifles. It's become a goal for my wife and I to...
