Only have handguns and a shotgun but I have been thinking about AR-15 lately.
Where is a good place to buy lowers (and what would I expect to pay)? And which one(s) are highly recommended for home defense? I hear you can take them hunting ... but ...
thanks,
Harold

Re: advice on ffl transfer
Ok thanks guys for the info. I thought I was going in circles.
I wanted to buy local but none of the dealers around here that I called could find a distributor with the model I wanted in stock (even s&w top gun dealers).
I did my homework, the out of state dealer is in Kentucky, http://www ...

advice on ffl transfer
Hello,
I have purchased a pistol over the Internet today from out of state and it is being shipped to my local dealer for transfer. This is my first time to buy a gun this way.
The seller (out of state) told me that they don't give a receipt for the firearm purchase due to laws in Texas ... that I ...

High Caliber Gun and Knife Show
Hello,
I've never been to a gun show. Is the one at George R Brown this weekend (Feb 16-17) a good one to attend ($8 entry)?
thanks
Harold

Got my PIN
Hey everyone,
I was a total newb a few weeks ago and had to figure a lot of stuff out for myself. So I'm going to be really basic for others who may be as I was. One important thing I learned is that LEO stands for Law Enforcement Officer. That's probably the least obvious jargon I had to figure ...

Re: Church Threat Response
Thanks flintknapper, that's what I needed to see. I found that in my handbook also - I guess it is just confusing to this non-lawyer the way it is written (i.e. you can't do this ... oh that doesn't apply). So this is good news to me! Has anyone ever heard of a church posting 30.06 signs in Texas ...
