The Buy back is being held in Mahattan/ NYC. BB guns are illegal in NYC, that's why BB guns are on the buy back list.
In our neck of the woods, you can have a BB gun.
I believe you have a custom "1807 Harpers Ferry" flintlock pistol as it's stamped on the right side of the pistol. The stock maybe a custom addition. IDK
So instead of calling it a buy back where they give you a few dollars for your gun. Now they saying donate your gun to Ukraine. Hmm.
They're holding this collection before Biden/ federal gov't even approves it? What happens if it doesn't get approved. Get the chop saw out?
I can picture it...
NYC has banned what they consider as assault rifles since the 1990's. The ban pre-dates the NY safe act.
The Thorsden stock is NY compliant, but "NYC" (5 boroughs) does not honor it. NYC has different rules.
Just because something states it's NY (NYS) compliant, it does not mean it's NYC...
Thanks guys. That was concern. I guess the .40 M&P shield is going to handle about the same.
Maybe I stick to a .40 in a mid- size frame.
(I'm considering .40s&w as my next woods gun. Been carrying a .45 in subcompact & full size as my woods gun. Looking for alternative/something lighter.)
If you're that skittish/ afraid because you saw someone's handgun permit, then you shouldn't be a cop. Maybe a meter maid, crossing guard or mailman is a better career choice. just saying.
My guess 1yr+ for NYC.
because on another site- someone said they applied (NYC) in 2/2021 and only recently got called for fingerprints in 2/2022. While others are still waiting.
Do you live in Queens, NY? (avatar) If you live in Queens/ NYC you can forget about buying/ building an AR15 because they are banned in NYC. NYC has different rules compared to NYS.
Additionally, NYC residents must have a rifle/shotgun permit in order to possess any long guns. All rifles &...
Man! I feel for him. It got me teary eyed when he started to get choked up.
IDK... Call the police and try to press charges? Contact the media to expose the Board of Ed for mis-handling of the matter? Get a lawyer?
1 day suspension? The Board isn't going to anything else about it? That's wrong.
Is this going to be your EDC gun or woods gun?
imo, there are better options for a EDC gun, unless you live in bear country or you "want" a 10mm.
It would be fine as a woods gun.
Shooting 10mm hot load such as buffalo bore or underwood can be a handful. The magazine pinky extension can be...

THIS.
Don't advertise what you have. Anything posted on the internet/ forums will show up for all to see.
Google it- google image. it's there for everyone to see. Picture of your cache, ammo, reloading room, gun room, supply room, bunker, etc.
(I won't even tell my sister, BIL or relatives...
I would not fix the mag to the rifle. Should you have a FTF, jam or any issues it would be easier to deal with it with the detachable mag.
If you're worried about losing your only mag then tell yourself never to remove it until absoultely necessary.
Meanwhile keep searching for a spare.
I don't know if I would also get a G17 when he already has a G19 (they're close in size) unless he just wants another gun.
Maybe a Ruger 10/22, Mini14, hatchet, camp knife, Binos, canteens, hydration pack, water filter sys, small portable radio, portable solar panel (travel type) ??
That is terrible. You could hear (the mom?) screaming in the dressing room after her daughter was shot.
Listening to the 911 call.. the caller said the guy had a gun but later states the suspect was beating people with a chain & lock.
Watching this video, the cop seems too gung-ho imo. He...
I fine with getting rid of styrofoam. I hate styrofoam packaging, plates & cups.
The only place I find it useful is exterior insulation panels on a house or foundation insulation.
My handguns are bone stock.
I don't care to modify my old mil surplus rifles, vtg rifles or dbl barrel shotguns. With some things I prefer them stock.
I have added a scope and bipod to my hunting rifles and target rifles.
Nice gift. I have 2 myself. It's very light to carry. sometimes I forget I have it on me.
They sell grip panels for it if you want it to fill your hand a little better. Or you can wrap the grip with a paracord to cushion the grip.
It sounds like you have a LOT of guns to go through.
Try to figure out a method that would work for you.
Maybe pick out and set aside the guns that you enjoy shooting, that shoots well, that's rare, or you feel emotionally attached to. Set aside the guns that you will pass on to your kids/...
I agree. Every time I'm on a hunt. I kick back and enjoy the scenery and the hunt. no wife asking to do something, no kids asking me order something online. Just peace and quite. I do sometimes get annoyed with the squirrels that cause me to jump thinking it's a deer. lol
There's an old...
I know the feeling. I've collected my share of firearms, knives & ammo over time. As age has creeped up on me, I have started reducing my collection. It's hard deciding what to keep and sell. But I need to reduce the collection to a just few as my wife could care less about them when I'm...
Around here, we have some indoor storage units. They have different levels like a 3-4 story building. They maybe climate control. They're gated, requires passcode to get into the building & security cameras (I've driven by them, never used them.) It maybe a bit more secure than the outdoor...
I remember a similar incident with 2 hunters a long time ago (when I was a kid.)
After a long day of hunting with my dad on public land we headed back to the road/ parking area and found troopers everywhere. Troopers said there was a shooting. Two hunters started off into the woods before...
How wide of a tree are you using/ climbing?
I haven't had any issue with my tree strap falling down. I use a Summit harness (provided with the stand). I cinch the strap around the tree and it stay put. never had a problem with the tree strap being to short to go around the tree, if anything...
A long time ago, I found some .22lr laying on a shelf in the garage after I purchased my house. I put them in a pill bottle and they sat around (forgot about them) for 30 years more before I shot them. Didn't have any issues. The bullets had a thin white coating, but no rust or green patina.
I...
Yes, rifle magazine max at 5 rounds in NYC. (You can't have a 10 round rifle magazine and only load it with 5rds in NYC. )
Like I said NYC ( 5 boroughs ) has their own set of stupid rules.
No, NYC capacity limit is 5 rounds in the tube or magazine. (5 + 1 in the chamber is fine.)
But the Beretta 1201fp can hold up to SIX 2.75" shells in the tube.
NYC's issue is the threaded barrel. A Mini14 without the threaded barrel/ muzzle brake may pass, unless NYC changed *hit again.?
NYC has a different set of rules when it comes to owning firearms in NYC.
One is, NYC has a capacity limit of 5 rounds with ANY rifle or shotgun.
In order to own a rifle or shotgun in NYC you'll need to posses a rifle/ shotgun permit.
All NYC firearms (rifles, shotguns & handguns(separate...
Not all the wally worlds carry ammo anymore. Sometimes when I travel out of state I'll stop in to check. but so far no luck.
Lucky my local wally world still gets delivery. Purchased this today for a friend.
I believe It's for firearm season/big game season.. I read something that "NY DEC has proposed regulation changes include requiring “all hunters pursuing deer or bear with a firearm, or anyone accompanying them, to wear a solid or patterned fluorescent orange or fluorescent pink hat or vest or...
