    Seeking Info re: Stone Mtn Bluegrass Festival

    I'm thinking of organizing a little trip for some friends and family to Stone Mountain Bluegrass Festival next month. I haven't been down that way in ages and was wondering if anyone could tell me if it's a safe place for a bunch of middle-aged folks. Has anyone been there recently? I didn't see...

    Introducing the Remington R-51

    This looks like an interesting CC pistol: Introducing the Remington R-51: Maybe you've met before (VIDEO) . Link Removed . It has lines that remind me a bit of a PPK, but has some modern features and is chambered in 9mm with a .40S&W version in the works.

    80% lower recievers untraceable and legal ???

    Before you jump into this, you might want to look into the machining process a bit. I was interested in this about a year ago and saw a few videos online, including one from someone who was selling the 80% receivers. Suffice it to say that I ordered a beautiful lower from Palmetto State armory...

    Multiple Threats: The Situation That Concerns Me the Most

    Thanks for the link. They are only about 80 miles away from me, and their Tactical Handgun classes are just what I need. It's funny, because I was looking at this on my laptop and my wife wanted to check it out. Now, she wants to take their "ladies only" pistol class.

    Multiple Threats: The Situation That Concerns Me the Most

    This video is from a jewelry store about 15 minutes from my home. The hoodies carjacked someone in Atlanta and drove close to an hour to pull this caper: . There aren't many training classes near me that I am aware of, and I was curious if anyone could point me to any online training...

    Bianchi 100T

    Here are four customer reviews (at the time I linked it): Link Removed . It's a small sample size, but they don't seem to be wild about it. I have three Bianchi holsters that I've had for years, and they always made a quality product. The thing about mass-produced holsters is finding one that...

    .410 Derringers: The "Pocket Shotgun"

    Check out the "pocket shotgun" and make up your own mind, but I bet this thing kicks like a mule. I also bet it would put a real hurt on someone from point blank range, perhaps even a contact shot, because with only one round, you had better not miss. . . . Double the fun: Heizer and DoubleTap...

    Applied for a License

    Good luck with that It appears that the answers to your questions are "the cops," and "I suppose, if they feel like it." Good luck, and let us know how it goes. - A background investigation to include, but not limited to, a fingerprint generated criminal history will be initiated on those...

    Knives as secondary or primary defense.

    I carry a serrated Spiderco Delica less for self-defense, but mostly because I find it's often useful to have a sharp knife handy in my day-to-day existence. If you want a sweet CC knife, look into a Gerber Guardian. Mine's 30 years old, but they still make them. - - Link Removed

    Concealed carry of Beretta 92FS

    Link Removed I carry my 96A1 Brigadier quite often, and I bought a holster a few months back that I really like. Beretta is usually out of them, but they have them in stock as of this posting. I got mine from Midwest Gun Works for $62.

    My favorite .380 pistols

    The Sexy European Link Removed To the extent that it's possible to love an inanimate object, I LOVE my Beretta 84F. She's a 21-year-old, sexy Italian and she loves to wear leather. I know, her butt's a little big, but she carries her 13-round double-stack magazine pretty well.

    What's Your Favorite Open Carry Gun?

    I Don't Always Open Carry, But When I Do... I only open carry on my own property or when I'm hunting or fishing out in the boonies. When I do I usually have either my S&W 686 4" barrel .357 loaded with CCI shot shells for snakes, or my 7.5" barrel New Model Blackhawk in .45 Long Colt with 260...

    Positive LEO Encounter

    A funny thing happened the other day here in North Georgia when I went into my local gun shop to pick up a stripped AR-15 lower I had ordered from an out-of-state manufacturer. I was getting ready to leave and I remembered I was a little low on pistol ammunition, so I asked the clerk for a box...
