Re: Gun shows or regular dealers?

Can anyone tell me what the differences are in laws for purchase of handguns from private gun shows as opposed to gun shops? If I am reading the regulations correctly you can purchase more than one handgun at a time if you buy from private owners at a show; otherwise you are limited to one every th...

Re: NRA shoots gun owners in the back

The NRA is just like any organization. They look out for themselves first and foremost. If all the houses on your street were to be set on fire and someone gave you an "out" so that your house could be saved would you take it? That's basically what is happening here. The Democrats gave the...

Ruger LCR and trigger pull

We purchased a Ruger LCR as my wife's main carry gun. Th one thing I don't like about it is that the trigger pull is very hard. Without measuring I would say its in the 9+ lb range at this point. That is very hard for her to be accurate with a trigger pull that is that hard. She likes the gun (light...
