Re: 9 mm misinformation
Assuredly, I am not mistaken. That I would put my source/method in public formum would be your error. It is basis in fact, though. Go and make a friend in the Bu FTU. You are correct that the 22 and/or 23 have been Bu issue is true. However, they have neither been the only issue, nor the only autho...

Re: 9 mm misinformation
False. To date the 9 mm, via Glock, is an option for new agent trainees graduating at Quantico. I would venture to say that outside of the DoD, the FBI is the largest single purchaser of 9 mm ammunition CONUS. I think you are mistaken here. What do you base this on? The Glock 22 and 23 in .40 S&...

9 mm misinformation
http://www.americanrifleman.org/articles/best-gun-for-home-defense/ This article was kind of a vanilla read for the experienced shooter. But it was one of the comments that I wanted to correct that got me to post. One commenter, Gary, discusses with great authority the reason that the FBI dumped the...

Re: Sportsman Warehouse Back open
When I lived out west, Sportsman's Warehouse was my mecca. I loved that place. All the outdoor gear, plus absolutely unapologetic firearm inventory (not just long guns, not just hunting).

Re: Common Sense and Due Caution
But I do require evidence that it is, in fact, no longer in my ownership. And how does a copy of someone's D/L provide evidence? All that would do is verify that the person you claimed you sold your gun to was a Virginia resident. They could still claim they never met you and that someone stole the...

Re: Common Sense and Due Caution
Nope, I got it. Thing is, I want to keep my freedom, too. If I don't know the buyer personally, believe that I am going to have better than nothing to show on its disposition if a gun trace comes back on me. I'm not sure how your freedom would be at issue. Unless it could be proven that you knowing...

Re: Common Sense and Due Caution
Then don't buy a gun from me, that's an easy fix. No one said anything about a SSN. You obviously missed the tongue in cheek and yes, the beauty of living a relatively free state (wrt firearms) means that I won't be purchasing a firearm from you.[/quote] Nope, I got it.

Re: VA-ALERT: Urgent: NM no longer honors VA CHPs!
I thought that was odd that VA didn't require range time. You would think that they would at least require an annual qualification. I have to do that with my H.R. 218. I would bet that the majority of the CHP holders do shoot several times a year but there is no method to record that. I've always t...

+1. I copy the DL and make clear that it goes in my safe never to see the light of day, unless the transaction comes back on me. Sorry, but I'm not giving some random dude a copy of my government issued ID card. Would you like my SSN while we're at at? Then don't buy a gun from me, that's an easy f...

Re: BACKPACKING: How to carry
What has definitely been proven is the absurdity of the Commonwealth making rules specific to multi-state USDA property, which has a set of rules in place. The conversation with VDGIF contradicts the absolute "no loaded guns out of season" (other than CC) position. I agree that "you m...

Re: BACKPACKING: How to carry
ALL, Just be aware that to carry in the National Forests outside of hunting season you will need a ccp. I also do a lot of fly fishing but most of my time is spent fishing for natives (catch and release only of course) on smaller streams wearing hip waders. I wear a Wilderness belt and carry on my ...
