    $500 Gun Buyback

    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.

    1807 firing replica

    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

    GOP Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman holding gun drive for Ukraine

    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...

    Precision/long range shooting

    OP what do you consider as long range? 400yd, 600yd, more.. As much as I love .308. I would go with 6.5 Creedmoor for long range shooting.

    NYC AR-15's?

    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...

    Modified my XD40 to a XD9 mod2

    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.)

    Cop draws down on legal gun owner during traffic stop, after becoming alarmed by pistol permit in her wallet

    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.

    Rifle permit wait time

    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.

    I’m new to the gun world in NY and I would like to stay compliant to our current law.

    I’m new to the gun world in NY and I would like to stay compliant to our current law.

    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 &...

    VIDEO: Virginia school board has STUNNING response when father tearfully reports daughter's 'sexual assault'

    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.

    Glock 29sf

    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...

    Fixed magazine, because I only have one and more aren't available?

    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.

    Priorities? (prepping and what to buy next?)

    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) ??

    LAPD accidently kills teen while stopping an assault (Video of shooting)

    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...

    NYS Styrofoam Ban

    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.

    ESEE Knives

    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.

    Seriously thinking of downsizing

    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/...

    Putting Guns in Storage

    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...

    Hunter Killed on Day 1 of Bear Season

    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 good is 65+-year-old .22 rimfire ammunition

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.

    NYC legal rifles/shotguns

    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.

    NYC legal rifles/shotguns

    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.?
