    Looking for the Mossberg 590 Shockwave 20Ga ... (NYC) permit. Any recommendations for a arms dealer with reasonable prices.

    OP, there are many firearms that NYC (5 boroughs) residents can't possess, where the rest of NYS can. NYC has their own set of rules. And because you need to register your firearms with NYPD. They will not let you register/possess anything that is banned in NYC. Because of the length. shockwave...

    It was on the news. Pediatricians warned about watering down formulas and women trying to make their own formulas. The Dr said women trying make their own formula could be unsafe for infants. Dr. said back in the day, women tried making their own formula and it led to some infant deaths...

    Another Florida sheriff recommends shooting intruders.

    This is my kind of sheriff. "See, dead men don’t receive three hot meals and a cot in prison. They’re just tossed in a grave. It’s cheaper."

    A Ruger/Marlin Lever gun ? Hmmm.

    A friend owns both the Remlin SBL & Ruger Marlin SBL in his collection. He said there is a noticeable difference in quality, fit & finish. (he sent me pics.) Everything about the Ruger Marlin SBL is smooth, polished, fits like a glove. Like it was sent to a pro shop. the action is butter smooth...

    I think I own two Bald Eagles

    That's cool. Bald eagles are huge. They can easily take down a cat. Even a hawk can take down a cat. Eagle attacks fox

    So thinking of getting into trap and skeet and pondering shotguns. Need advice.

    Depending on the manufacturer, choke tubes may be marked in lettering or notches. Examples of Notches at the front of choke tubes: Lettered..

    recommendation for a new 308 long range bolt action

    I would go with any of these... Savage, Tikka, Sako, Howa, Fieldcraft, Weatherby. Or build a custom long range rifle. I know a few guys that have. I had a Remington 700. I had the recall completed and sold it. I like their old shotguns, otherwise I'm not a fan on Remington.

    Double barrel sawed off vs Shockwave?

    Something like this ? (from the internet) It's cool and all but I would prefer a shockwave (more rounds.)

    So thinking of getting into trap and skeet and pondering shotguns. Need advice.

    A friend shoots with an Ethos SuperSport. He loves it. For clay I personally prefer an O/U. For upland hunts, I can go either O/U or autoloader. Being that you're new to shotguns/ trap & skeet. I would also recommend going somewhere that rents shotguns for the sport. Try a few different...

    So thinking of getting into trap and skeet and pondering shotguns. Need advice.

    The Ruger Red Label is a nice gun. You mentioned a rule you live by- Buy once, cry once. The Benelli O/U is a better gun. Others are Franchi Instinct. Beretta Silver pigeon. You'll appreciate the O/U when shooting skeet.

    If they want a new stadium the owner of the team/ and the players should pay for it. They're rich. (Some people don't even like football or the Bills. Way to go Hochul. (sarcasm))

    Priorities? (prepping and what to buy next?)

    This has always crossed my mind when we talk of prepping. But what if you& your family had to leave because of the bombing/ invasion, (or even a natural disaster.) Towns in Ukraine have been reduced to rubble. People trapped in the rubble. Citizens being shot in the street trying to buy bread...

    South Carolina allows Firing Squad for Executions

    I don't care if they shoot them, hang them or fry them. I just wish NY would exercise the death penalty instead of wasting tax dollars on housing them.

    Housing prices up almost 20% in a year

    It's a great time to sell, but it may be a challenge to find another place w/o paying above their norm. Prices of homes are up all across the country. (I'm glad I have land down south.)

    NYS AR-15 question

    Your friend is a typical liberal HYOPCRITE. "He doesn't like oil companies, but he likes muscle cars. He hates guns until the pandemic hit." And now he's talking about getting an AR15? But he's too afraid to research/ google AR15 on the internet because he thinks the FBI will watch him? LOL I...

    The New Savage - Stance- what say you

    I don't care for the looks of it. Especially the cutout slots on the slide. Their "S" (Savage) logo would have looked better on the grip than that TV antenna design.

    There will be No time to say "Goodbye". Add your thoughts! (if electricity goes down long term)

    The same thought has crossed my mind often. More and more electronic gizmos pops up every year. Manufacturers rely on consumers. And many folks fall into it... example: i-robot, Larger TV, Alexa/ Siri, electronic/wireless this and that, keyless entry, tablets, earbuds, electronic appliances...

    $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.

    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.

    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 &...
