    Sam's Club carry.

    I work for a large retailer who has a no firearms policy, and I used to be one of the guys who would approach someone who was carrying a side arm and inform that person of our no firearms policy. Sometimes it went well, and sometimes it did not. The worst part was trying to converse with them...

    Glock perfection? Seeking knowledge on a Glock 27 "problem"

    Question for you knowledgeable semi-auto guys. I just bought a new, off the shelf Glock 27. When I rack the slide with purpose, it goes in to full battery.

    What is NOT a safe temperature for gun and ammo storage?

    Is it ok to store guns and ammo out in my garage in the cold? The garage of course is dry, but the temps around here for the past 10 days or so have been between -4 to 14 F. The guns and ammo are in a safe, but I am pretty sure that there is little to no difference in temperature inside the...

    CheaperThanDirt.com advertises on USA Carry.........

    Lots of folks mad about CheaperThanDirt.com's decision to quit selling firearms. Lots of folks right here on this forum say they will no longer support CTD because of that decision. So if CTD advertises here, how many of you will quit this forum for allowing a spineless jellyfish to advertise?

    I was taught and still believe that the common/standard hunting rifle sight-in is 100 yds. Is there such a standard for practicing with a hand gun? I have been shooting at 10', 15', 21' and 30'. This also brings up a second question...now I am wondering if I shoot at 30', is it overkill or a...

    Reality Check

    My wife and I visited Las Vegas last week-end for the very first time. We walked the strip, went to a show, and overall had a great time. We had never been around so many people.

    Does your wife shoot?

    My wife could care less about my guns. She could care less about shooting. She could care less about carrying a gun. She has no interest. She is not against guns. She doesn't care that I have guns, that her dad has guns, and that our son has guns, or the neighbors have guns, or that you have...
