Ok, so checking pistols for air travel is fairly straight forward, but it does present an added expense if a checked bag has a cost and you are carrying on only. It also can add time onto the trip. So, can anyone authoritatively answer these question: Is it legal to ship a a registered pistol...

I'm buying a used 6906 from a local gun dealer in Seattle and wondering if there's anything special I should look for in this pistol. (He's asking $340 [plus tax] which I think is a fair price. Certainly better than gunbroken, where I see them asking anywhere from $350 and up, plus shipping...

Something looks funny with the fire control group. Who can tell me what it is? Mods. Please don't move this from chit chat till you find out what. PM me and I'll tell you the situation .

Hi everyone! Here at JFK. I checked in my glock 26 at the JetBlue counter. Very smooth process. TSA and Port authority came over checked licenses and made sure it was unloaded. Very nice young Port authority cop came over, but had a little problem with my license saying not valid in NYC. I told...

Hello to LIF, from MS

Hi all, just posting here to check in. In Nassau County, got intro'd to this site by friend. So far like what I see.

Hi everyone...Another newbie checking in. I found this site a few weeks ago when I started doing some home defense "research".

Have been on a couple of times via mobile over the past few days. Currently sitting at a PC with internet connection. Woo hoo. What a treat. Unfortunately, it's not at home where there is still no power. Snagged a PC near work and have been reading the forum for an hour before getting ready to...

Hey All, Hope all my friends down on the Island and in NYC are doing well. I know you all are busy but if you get a chance, check in here and let me know you ok. Chris

Everyone is okay, which is the mot important part. The seals on the doors held, but the water came up right through the foundation. We're going to try to get back in an hour or so. Eating lunch in McDonalds so we have WiFi. The National Guard is checking ID's at Wellwood and Montauk Hywy...

Just checking in... No power, Internet, cells not working when I'm home. Hope everyone is safe. Jeff FMJ
