  1. +1000000000 Don't leave us hanging man. Somebody might have an opinion on it.
  2. If you have a RWD vehicle in the snow you might as well park and start walking. Same goes for 4WD in many cases, depending on driver. Now, like Erik said, get in a FWD Honda or Acura...you will be able to go just about anywhere on flat roads and then some. I used to tear-ass about in my '91 Integra (stick-shift) in all kinds of snow. No problems at all.
  3. I would prefer to have Campfield not involved in legislative affairs whatsoever. If he propsed anything it is doomed.

    RUGER LC9

    When they bring a 1911...with the entire manual stamped on the side.

    RUGER LC9

    And Ruger tends to announce a recall shortly thereafter. I really like the idea of the LC9 and want to get my hands on one ASAP but am having problems with that stupid-ass lock illustrated in Jeff Quinn's piece.
  6. Before everyone starts jumping for joy the 60 day "public review" period ends Monday. What then? The ATF gets their way and the "regulation" goes into effect?
  7. Seems to me the point of this is "Do you believe in space aliens?". Do I believe there is life on other planets? Absolutely. Our little galaxy is but an indescribable blip in the infinite universe. If the probers are flying around here they obviously are advanced far beyond our capabilities and are just sight-seeing. Most likely not being too impressed either.
  8. Probably because a lot of internet commandos are thinking of Nim's Island.
  9. Like R11 said, it's MIM. Metal Injection Molding. Basically, instead of a steel part being machined it is created from a mold. There is much discussion of the relative merits of this process and the durability of the results. It is a manufacturing process that allows manufacturers to cut costs....and not pass those savings along to the consumer. The quest today is to find a new gun that does not have MIM parts and not have to pay an arm and a leg for it. You can't.
  10. That's understandable. But if it hasn't been shot in 30 years it's as good as it was then.
  11. Don't know why you need a gunsmith. Depending on the amount of rust in question a good deal of it can be removed with 0000 steel wool in combination with liberal amounts of oil.
  12. Link, we should send you a copy of the Knoxville area edition. It is nothing like the Memphis one.
  13. Just Busted hit this area about 6 months ago or so. New edition every week. Great fun to look at. BTW, that new story is OLD. I picked up my first copy in Memphis shortly after they premiered.
  14. One helluva lot more than the sum of its parts. Depending on the condition of the CJ5 I'll take a wild guess and say the gun is worth more or it would be an even trade. If it has the proper paperwork.
  15. Correct. If it's not registed stay far away. Ask him to see the papers.
  16. I have no idea how USPSA works but I seriously see me doing this.
  17. It's like a miniature artillery piece.
  18. TGI (Tennessee Guns) is a fairly large importer and have been doing that for years. They are pretty much a wholesaler. While that response is a little terse I'm glad you asked the question because I've thought of asking them myself a time or two.
  19. The only Mosins were of the collectible variety, not your average $100 WWII Russians. The one OS mentions is an old Remington made during WWI (or was it Westinghouse? I disremember). There were a few Finnish Mosins as well.
  20. I really enjoyed the show. If you are looking for a new Glock go elsewhere, there were only a few. I'd say it was probably 85-90% old, collectable and mostly all in excellent condition. I was in heaven. There was only about two tables that did not have guns. It was just like shows used to be a long, long time ago.

    Handgun ownership

    That pretty well sums it up.

    Handgun ownership

    At the age of 18 you are legally eligible to own a handgun but not buy one. Federal Laws also come into play. There are far better here to answer the question, specifically OhShoot. Here's the TCA. You'll need to search. Legal Resources

    S&W or Colt?

    Maybe this will help...5" Model 27
  24. Before all the bashing starts, and it will, I've never had a problem at Coal Creek either.
