      Moving my collection to Texas, suggestions..

      I have recently retired and plan to move to Texas sometime next year. Need ideas on moving the collection. It is too large to consider shipping FFL to FFL. The shipping and fees would easily pay for a 1941 Johnon, maybe with K-43 thrown in. My original plan was to tow a trailer with them...

      I know that the answer is probably buried in one of the other threads, but I haven't been able to did out a clear answer? Can anyone give me the current status of the bill?

      HR8 background check bill the death of the C&R?

      Yes, I know it is unlikely to pass the Senate this year, but downtream.... Reading the text of the bill, it makes no exception for holders of FFL03 licenses. In other words, the whole country would be like New Jersey -- all sales through FFL01 dealers. The only utility left for the license...

      House Democrats Plan Vote to Criminalize Private Gun Sales This Week

      Another impact of HR8: it makes the FFL 03 C&R license useless, except for face to face purchases at out of state dealers ( a very small percentage of C&R transactions, l would bet.)

      House Democrats Plan Vote to Criminalize Private Gun Sales This Week

      Maryland still allows private sales of long guns. HR8 would eliminate that and require all firearms sales to go through a licensed dealer.

      Revolver re-blue needed

      Made in 1906, Originally a Frontier Six Shooter (.44-40). Barrel and Cylinder changed to make it .45 Colt. No idea when it was altered. Some pitting on the frame but it functions perfectly. When I bought it I had no idea how complicated and expensive getting it refinished (or getting new...

      Seeking EVO Scorpion Carbine

      Damn, I forgot about the two evil feature rule. Or more specifically I forgot about the folding stock (which I don't need.)Maybe I will just wait a year or two for retirement and relocation.

      Seeking EVO Scorpion Carbine

      Ok, my reading of the 2013 FSA, the CZ Scorpion Carbine is still Maryland legal. Someone please correct me if I am wrong. Does any dealer in MD have one for sale? Would prefer the version without the faux suppressor.

      Revolver re-blue needed

      1st Gen SAA, no collector's value because it has a barrel and cylinder replacement (changing the caliber) and the finish stripped from all other parts. Not worth a full restoration. but I want something that looks like Colt factory bluing.

      Revolver re-blue needed

      I have a Colt SAA that someone has stripped the finish off of, needs a complete reblue. Do you offer that service?
