      Do not store gun in foam case!?!?

      So, what are the pros/cons of using VCI paper vs. a system like Brownell's storage bags?

      Verizon dropping Outdoor Channel

      It's gone from On Demand too. Good think I DVR'd Shooting USA yesterday. Anyone know where these shows are available online?

      First handgun recommendations

      To reiterate the sound advice of others, go to the range and rent/borrow any/all guns that meet your criteria. Try them each and see which feels the best and go with it. Its easy to find brand bashers for each model and the forums are full of threads on why x is a horrible worthless POS or...

      Semi auto 12 gauge

      BAD--even worse with mtn and road bikes, its the same condition x2. By the time I have enough time and money for all the hobbies and stuff, I'll be too old to enjoy them. Going from a pump to a semi has been a big difference in recoil, not during the actual trigger pull but later. I...

      Semi auto 12 gauge

      :) I have SAD, BAD and a different CAD (Camera Addiction Disease). Kids and coming college tuition have put most of these in remission. FWIW and to add to the OP's query, I have a new A300 Outlander and am very happy with it. Much softer shooter than my old Mossberg 500 and no issues to...

      looking for first shotgun

      There are several ways to proceed. As mentioned, search the forums, there are lots of threads on the subject including a few recent ones. If a semi-auto is what you are after, you should consider whether you would be better served with an inertia system or gas. From that point, try several on...

      Convincing the wife to let me buy a CG

      Being in healthcare but never having seen one in person, I was professionally curious. My wife didn't view her C-Section as a CE moment for me and wouldn't let me watch. Been in the OR for 2 now and haven't seen either.

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Just a quick follow-up. Will be going with the Beretta A300. Hope to have it this week....Thanks for the input.

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Came home from work tonight thinking either the A300 or Franchi. The Franchi seemes to fit slightly better out of box but I think with a slight drop adjustment the Beretta would be the same. Then Jay0B311 threw me the Stoeger curve....thanks :) Probably not take the chance though and stick...

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Still here and still reading. Just to be clear, there is nothing wrong with a used gun, I simply prefer to buy new. In my other sports/hobbies it has always been relatively easy to find the sweet spot between quality, performance and price. With firearms, that sweet spot seems more elusive...

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Hmmmm. More food for thought. Thanks. I keep checking the posts and absorbing what everyone is writing. Starting to reconsider and maybe I'll just stick with the 500 for now. But, I do have the itch to buy something and there seem to be quite a few good deals to be had this time of year...

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Thanks for the feedback. After reading your post, I realize I made a typo, should have been stoeger 3000. Fixed it.

      semi-auto---what's good enough?

      Please indulge me for a minute, I am considering upgrading to a semi-auto 12 ga from a Mossberg 500. My purpose being for clay games. I have a budget of under $800 and I do no want a used gun. I have researched the following: Beretta A300, Franchi Affinity, Mossberg 930, and Stoeger 3000--the...

      Virginia eastern shore gun shops?

      http://www.esoutfitters.com/ Found the link. I've only been there once and purchase some fishing stuff. Don't recall their firearms. Also a Walmart on 13 in Onley. If you've never been, grab a bite at the Exmore Diner, good and reasonably priced. Also on13 on the north side of Exmore is El...
