This letter came in the mail today. I'm not sure if it went our to all of his constituents, but one did come for every member of my household today. It's encouraging to see that there is at least some movement to get this done.

While I belong to Freeport, I've never actually shot at the outdoor range. I was thinking of stopping by tomorrow morning. Do I need to bring something to hang the targets from? Thank you!

In my search for a revolver, I found a used ruger GP100, which I know I like as I have shot one before, for what I feel is an OK price $525 including shipping. I found it for sale in another forums classifieds. I contacted the seller, who wants me to send him a money order and he will have his...

So there's been a number of recent court cases affirming the right to keep and bear arms extends OUTSIDE the home as well as in.

happy friday all. Ok. I found a good deal on the Steyr s-a1 I've been drooling over for months on Gunbroker. Under description of item it says "Ensure that your FFL will accept shipment from a non-FFL" So I assume that the seller is not an FFL. OK great. I email him, sure enough, he is not...

This question came up at work and I'm not sure of the answer. Of course if you call 1PP or Rifle/Shotgun they give conflicting answers. Do NYS Certified Peace Officers (Armed) need to have a rifle/shotgun license to own/purchase if they reside in NYC?

I have a 29-2 with the factory equipped Goncalo Alves target grips. I have a pair of Dade speedloaders that supposedly fi the 29 and they dont seem to work with the grips. The grip is in the way. Also when I extract the cartridge, the edge of the cartridge closest to the grip contacts the grip...
