Listening to the testimony in RI tonight, I took out my copy of the Federalist Papers. It never ceases to amaze me how intelligent the founders really were. In fact, they were able to predict what has happened up until today: Of course the environment today has changed. Now both the...

My grandfather recently passed away, he lived in FL. He had a few rifles, of which I may receive. My grandmother just wants them out at some point. I'm going to go down and look everything over, and we'll probably sell some of them. What is the correct way to get them to NH? It is not...

She said the bill wasn't "clear" enough but I'm skeptical. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/04/18/arizona-gov-brewer-vetoes-law-allowing-guns-public-college-campuses/

I'm interested in looking for a hi power. I know it's a long running pistol. Is there any difference between vintage models and today's production? I know with many guns older is better on quality. I like the mark iii with the black grips myself. I love my 1911, so another jmb design...

Just what the title says... does anyone know anything about Greenfield Sportsman's Club in Greenfield NH? There isn't much info on the net about, only a PO Box and a couple contacts.

I should rephrase that a bit, does anyone make a quality original design 1911? By original I mean original style trigger, hammer, no beavertail, original type sights, no ambi safety, etc. Reading this article: http://www.sightm1911.com/lib/tech/toolbox.htm, it describes how an original 1911...

Is there any way around the "too short" search limitation? When trying to search something with a number such as "model 60", or with a state abbreviation it won't include it. Usually I do search titles only for searches like this.

I went to the range for a bit today with my 6920... and the trigger felt like crap. [thinking] All that has been done to it is a light polishing on contact surfaces (no material removal). It has a heavy dragging pull to it, then breaks when you wouldn't expect. I didn't seem to have this...

I just received a Larue/Troy folding rear sight. The thing is built like a tank, is precise, and bulletproof. But I noticed something about it and I'm wonder if anyone else ever noticed.... If you look at a stock carry handle peep sight (the small one), the sight is kind of shaped like a...

Got a question: if I put an acog on a flatop AR (colt 6920) will the front sight post be in the way? I have a standard front sight post. I do not want to remove it and put in a backup fs. If the post appears at the bottom of the view and doesn't get in the way of the BCD markings I'd be ok...

RobC's thread on moving to MA made me wonder about something. Say person A moved to MA from a (non-nh) free state, and had person B in NH hold onto a handgun (normally not MA legal make/model) for them while they applied for an LTC. Now fast forward about a year later and person A never...

I ran across this at m14tfl.com, they're doing a group buy on it atm: http://www.battlearmsdevelopment.com/index.php Looks like it will dissassemble basically everything on the rifle, and also includes wear gages. Also made entirely in the USA! [grin] Future plans for AR tools also...

I have a nice model 36 that I want to carry. I was thinking IWB cross draw, at around the 10 - 11 O'Clock position. I don't want to carry on either hip because my skinny frame will make it uncomfortable and almost guaranteed to print severely. [laugh] Plus it would be comfortable sitting...

Is it necessary to send a copy of your C&R to get CMP to send a rifle to you? They don't mention submitting a C&R on their order forms. Or are they able to send directly to anyone if they meet all the requirements anyway?

I'm thinking about doing a CMP order and I need to fulfill the affiliation requirement. Unfortunately my club is not on the CMP list. I was thinking of joining gonh but they say to allow 6-8 weeks for membership processing which seems somewhat ridiculous to me. Add that onto the CMP wait and I'm...

Traveling into MA for the Pumpkin shoot this weekend I'll have to lock up my ammo somehow (no trunk). Any suggestions on a cheap and easy lockable case for ammo? I can always use a tool box if I can't get anything better.

I'm wondering if there is any prefered 45 auto ammo for defense out there. I'm talking for 1911 style pistols, so it has to feed reliably of course. So far I've just used the cheap winchester packs. Also, if buying something special for home defense is it a good idea to practice with it? Seems...

My grandfather has a couple rifles and a shotgun that were recently given to him by a friend in MA. He wants to hand them over to me. Do I need to go through a dealer in NH to transfer them over to me? Not sure what kind of paper trail these have but they weren't transfered to my grandfather...

Now that I have my C&R I have to get some milsurps! What rifle would you guys recommend? I'm thinking something bolt action, fairly accurate. Enfield is on the possible list so far. Didn't someone say having the license would save money? [rofl]

Is reloading 5.56 the same as doing a .223 round? Or in other words, is the same equipment used? I'm starting to get quite a pile of brass lying around...
