    C&R question

    Can someone show me where C&R licensees are exempted from the background check requirement of a C&R eligible gun in the SAFE Act? I don't see it.

    C&R question

    I guess some counties in the state let you. Provided you know the serial number beforehand, you can get the purchase coupon and then receive it. I just wanted to make sure I could receive a gun from someone in state and not violate SAFE. I wasn't sure if there was an exemption for someone...

    C&R question

    So, I applied for my C&R license a bit ago. Talk me into a C&R license I've got a question about buying rifles. I understand that I can buy a rifle from an out of state seller (dealer, collector, or individual) and have it shipped to my door. No questions there. What about in state though? Can...

    Welcome to the site. Glad you could join us. I may have to pick your brain about predator hunting next fall/winter. It's something I've wanted to try. Why are you pointing the finger at me!?!?!?! :D

    Hopefully I'll be going out for bullhead this coming up weekend. The warm weather this week should get them to run.

    WTB Old wall hanger for above fireplace

    Congrats on the auction win. It looks pretty nice! Make sure to let us know if you find out more about the gun. If you need any help trying to figure out more about it, post up some pictures of any markings once you get it. Excellent advice to see if it is loaded. Stuff the ramrod down there...

    US Launches Airstrikes In Syria

    Even if that is all true, it doesn't matter. The War Powers Act doesn't allow the President to start bombing other countries because they might do something bad or they don't abide by an agreement. Simply citing national security doesn't make it OK. Are you really in favor of persecuting people...

    US Launches Airstrikes In Syria

    The War Powers Act does authorize the President to use force like you said. He has 60 days to take action and 30 days to pull troops out, for a total of 90 days. However, The War Powers Act only authorizes the president to initiate contact/force under certain situations. Those situations are, "a...

    US Launches Airstrikes In Syria

    I don't really care if Assad attacked his own people. We had no right to go in there by ourselves and bomb another sovereign country. I really don't see how this doesn't violate the War Powers Act. It doesn't matter if Clinton or Bush 2 did it. That doesn't make what Trump did OK.

    I bought both those guns at Hessney's at the last auction. You can see pics of them in the Long Guns section. Hessney has another auction coming up at the end of the month. They're still adding firearms to the listing, so check back about the 22nd to see anything tickles your fancy. Upcoming...

    WTB Old wall hanger for above fireplace

    Replica guns are relatively inexpensive and easy to come by. Real flintlock guns tend to be a little more expensive, especially if they're in good shape. You can always check the auctions, as NY law allows muzzleloading firearms to be shipped to your door (local laws may prohibit this, I have...

    how to hide human scent whie hunting

    I don't bother with cover scents or even washing my clothes in scent free detergent. I do keep my hunting clothes in a rubbermaid tote in the garage though. Play the wind game and stay downwind. I went elk hunting in CO last fall and I saw the most game when I stayed downwind and moved slow.

    Contact eWaste (formerly RCR&R). They're over behind Van Vortel used cars on Rt 96. I don't think it will cost you anything. That's where the company I work for takes them, and they don't charge us. We drop off anything besides CRT monitors and TVs.

    Any other beekeepers here?

    Possibly mites, but I inspected them fairly well at the end of last summer. I didn't see a mite problem. It was a new hive, with a pretty fresh queen, so mites shouldn't have been that big of an issue. I never did do a powdered sugar or alcohol test though. It's possible they had condensation...

    Any other beekeepers here?

    Good to hear! I lost both my hives this winter :( I have no idea why. They still had lots of honey in them. I've got enough honey to last me another year, at least. So, I won't be buying any for this year. I may try to catch a swarm though.

    Monroe Country Clerks office~~~

    Yes. You have the permit card, then another card that lists the guns. This was/is the reason I'm not in a hurry to switch to the card. I'll keep my paper permit until they make me switch.

    Guy tries to board flight with loaded glock - Albany International

    I think Darth was referring to a bullet hole causing massive depressurization leading to a catastrophic failure and not something like what happened with Flight 243. They are totally different.

    Guy tries to board flight with loaded glock - Albany International

    So the fuselage gets a hole through it. It's not like the air pressure difference is enough to do much from a tiny hole. The system that pressurizes the cabin would be able to compensate for at least a few holes.

    PA just shot down semis for Deer

    I hear it all the time on the state land near my hunting property. I've heard 8 or 10 shots with 30-45 seconds before. You can tell which way the deer is running by the sound of gunshots.

    PA just shot down semis for Deer

    No... population numbers going up is not good for the area. It's good for the hunter. There is a very big difference. I've never had the need to have a semi-auto firearm for hunting season. That said, I really don't care what people use during it. Why do people think that hunters just...

    When did you get this email? Did they really only give 5 days notice?!

SCOPE needs to be a 2A organization, not a right-leaning one. And, that's part...

    Second auction buy - Suhl .71 Cal Potsdam musket (lots of pics)

    My other purchase at the auction was a musket made in Suhl, Prussia. It is a .71 caliber musket with a half stock and ~41 inch barrel. It is in very good condition (besides the half stock). The total length is about 4'9" and is almost as tall as my mother! This m1809 has a barrel date of 1813...

    Old JL Cazes 16 gauge SxS

    YEah, there was definitely some shady repair at some point. The patina of the piece on the bottom, ahead of the trigger guard, is pretty nice. Whoever did that did it a long time ago. The brazing of the trigger guard is pretty shoddy too. It's all good though. It's definitely worth $50 as a...

The second one I bought was a beat up JL Cazes 16 gauge SxS percussion shotgun. JL Cazes was a gun maker from Paris, France that operated from 1750...

    Can You Start A Fire With A Pencil?

    When I went to CO last year, I drove for something like 15 miles without cell service. We don't usually have that issue here in the northeast, but it's issue other places. I do agree with you though. I always keep a lighter in my car.

    Are there any restrictions on Springfield 1903s?

    In regards to NYC.... Other than the need for a permit/license for long guns, why? Is there something on the 1903 that bans it? Isn't it just a 5 round, clip fed, bolt action rifle?

    Utah Governor Signs .05 DUI Limit !

    It all comes down to personal responsibility. I drive to bars frequently. I have a drink or two with friends over the course of a couple hours, then I drive home. I've decided to leave my car and get a ride home before because I drank more than I planned. There's no reason to drive drunk. Take...

    32 rimfire on permit?

    Next time there is a huge run of it, remind me to buy a pallet of it. I can wait 10 years and sell it for 4 times what I paid for it. I've been reading up on it. Navy Arms imported a bunch of it in the early 2000s from a company that made it in Brazil. I guess that company (CBC) stopped making...

    32 rimfire on permit?

    Yup. I'm just wondering if anybody has had any success buying them and not putting them on their permit. Do stores/people/whatever know enough to just release them to you without going through the hassle of putting them on your permit?

    32 rimfire on permit?

    I'm going to an auction on Saturday and there are a bunch of pistols in .32 rimfire. I want some wall hangers. I assume at least one or two will go for $50 or less because they don't have much collector value. .32 rimfire ammunition is extremely difficult to find and isn't available...
