      Fingerprints required for pre Oct 1 handgun purchases?

      Forgive me as I'm sure this must have been covered somewhere but my searches brought back so many hits I couldn't locate what I needed. Today a friend brought up the new Oct. 1 laws. I knew of the Handgun Safety Course requirement but it didn't concern me as I have probably bought all of the...

      500 S&W mystery solved?

      I posted a thread awhile back about how I couldn't remove some shell casings with the ejector. I fired 15 rounds that day and I always had to tap out one of the five with a dowel rod. I blamed the gun as it was always the same cylinder. But.... I just saw that Hornady was recalling some of...

      Shotgun waiting period?

      This is my first post in the shotgun forum. I normally hang out in the handgun section. I had a "strange" occurance today as I attempted to purchase a new Remington 870 Marine Magnum shotgun. When my FFL called the FBI NICS they told him that there would be a four day wait to purchase. I'm...

      Dominant Eye Problem

      I am left-handed and in the past have always used a left-hand grip and my left eye to aim. However, I have recently developed an optic nerve problem with my left eye which has caused my left eye vision to deteriorate about 30%. As an example, shooting during the day, aiming my left eye, I can...

      500 S/W Ejection Problems

      I finally got an oppurtunity to fire the hand cannon. After firing the 1st five shots, the ejector rod ended up outside of the spent casings. I managed to get the casings out and THIS problem did not happen again. However, in one cylinder the shell casing would always be stuck tight. I would...

      I need some help from the forum....haven't shot my new 500 SW yet....I feel that @ $3.00 a shot, paper targets will not do. I plan on having a watermelon, cantelope & pineapple sitting on a picnic table. I also plan on having hanging 1 gallon milk containers (some filled with water, some...

      7 day wait now longer?

      My new .500 SW Magnum arrived at my ffl today. Paperwork was sent today to the MSP for the 7 day "not disapproved" wait. FFL informed me that the MSP has been running around 14-16 days recently because they have gone to a batch processing method. True? BS?

      Personal Image

      I have been a member for a few months now and I finally found a personal image (the one that appears below your user name when you post threads/replies). It is a 40 kb jpeg. The image shows when I review my bio, but does not show on the threads. Can anybody help me with this issue?

      I have had a Kimber Warrior on order since June. When I ordered it I was told it would arrive in 8 weeks....obviously it is now pushing 6 months.
