Re: Dangerous shooters at the range
Newbie question: Why are you not supposed to rapid fire in an indoor range? Every indoor range I've ever seen has bullet holes in the ceiling. Generally, a gun's muzzle rises under rapid fire. A gun firing upwards like that is typically going to miss the backstop and thus create a safety hazard. Mo...

Re: Texas police can sell guns.
Interesting. I can see how it'll be beneficial if the weapons are of any value, but to blindly say "omg, we're not going to put evil guns back on the street that committed crimes" seems stupid. It wasn't the gun that was committing the crime it was the perpetrator. They put the criminals ...

Re: CHL and Deferred Adjudication
I believe you may need to get all the paperwork from the court you can such as the arrest and case disposition record to send in with the CHL application,I had some misdemeanor charges expunged back in the mid 90's the arrest showed up and I had to submit the court records showing the arrest and cas...

Re: Remington 870 jamming issues
The express 870 pumps aren't the same quality as wingmasters,when I was duck hunting with one back in the day,the ejection wasn't as smooth,You could take a bore brush and chuck it in a drill and using some cleaner run it in the chamber,also check the extractor to make sure it's not chipped/damaged,...

Re: How to quit dipping snuff
I quit smoking 20 years ago,and quit alcohol and other things 22 years ago,you will get the urge to use,if you keep some jolly ranchers in your pocket suck on one ,the urges will get longer and farther apart over time.Also whenever you think about think about how much you waste and how many new guns...

Re: Shooting out of a boat
Use your paddle to smack the water in front of them,they will go the other way,bullets ricochet off of water,you stand a good chance of missing the snake and if that round hits somebody you didn't see your in deep trouble

Re: Called DPS, found out some new info.
When I initially got my CHL I sent everything including fingerprint cards in at the same time,I'm confused about you claiming that you need to wait to send fingerprints until they start processing your paperwork.Unless they changed something if you didn't send in your fingerprints then they can't ch...

Re: 5 dead in Illinois shooting, Perp killed by Police
I guess those restrictive Illinois gun laws didn't keep what was more than likely a career criminal from killing a whole family.That incident is one reason why I carry on body until I go to bed and then I have my 1911 and 12 gauge in arms reach
