    I have a great-nephew moving back to NY from CO. He intends to settle in the county and wants to get his permit. Any information anyone can share on the ease / difficulty or any "how to's" unique to Rensselaer county that I can pass along would be greatly appreciated. TIA

    New York Considers New Taxes on Guns and Ammunition Dec. 19, 2023

    Nation gambling. Nation tobacco. Nation gasoline. Nation weed. Now add Nation guns & ammo and all that would be lacking is Nation whiskey. Oh, the irony of it all.

    Doctor asks; Are there guns in your home?

    Had a colonoscopy yesterday and there were a few questions during the "prep", one of which was whether I had been depressed or had suicidal thoughts recently. "Well, having to leap out of bed at two o'clock this morning and rush to the bathroom for the 15th time in a day was somewhat...

    38 wadcutter costs

    When I first started reloading a buddy and I went halves on a Rock Chucker and spent a couple evenings a week loading .357's. On Saturday afternoon we would go out to the sand pit and dare each other to be the first to try the latest batch. We gauged the quality of the loads by the amount of...

    N.J. Hunter walking to car locks down town

    Dunno if I ever told this story here. Forgive the repetition if I did but I think it applies to the subject at hand. Growing up in the little hamlet of Groveland Station in the early '60's, the norm for a Saturday morning in the fall was for our little posse of teenagers to assemble, picking up...

    Nadler Asks Chip Roy (R-TX). : 'What Do You Use Semi-Automatic Weapons For?'

    He missed a great opportunity when Nadler asked Roy if he would use the semi-automatic weapon against American troops. "Why, sir, would I ever use it against American troops? What would American troops be doing to me?"

    Pole limit?

    In the late '70's Bob Sinclair was a DEC officer with a couple decades of experience. He taught a class on ECON Law and told the class a story about patrolling Conesus Lake one time and coming upon a husband & wife in a boat. There were 4 lines in the water. He had a fishing license, she did...

    Lewis County NY pistol permits will all be unrestricted now. Older permits may be brought in for restriction removal.

    This is interesting. I got my permit in Lewis county in the '70's and I don't think such a thing as a restricted permit even existed then. Everyone running their own little fiefdoms.

    AG confirms FUAC is a sexual harasser

    Actually, I'd like to sit down and have a beer with the guy. Tell him how I can feel his pain. "I know how you feel, Andy. People making stuff up and falsely accusing you of doing something wrong. When I owned that AR-15, I was doing absolutely nothing wrong either. And, yet, here we sit."

    Rookie Question: Transporting rifles, ammo, magazines in NY what is allowed?

    @dsdmmat If you get an asshole of a game warden they can sight you for leaning a loaded gun against the vehicle. I had one sneak up on me one time when I was in my truck, eating lunch, waiting for my brother in law to show up. Never asked about having a license, only interested in whether the...

    Rookie Question: Transporting rifles, ammo, magazines in NY what is allowed?

    Be careful with this issue. You might want to read up on NYS DEC regulations. There is a regulation (law perhaps?, not sure) that prohibits having a firearm (handguns excepted) "loaded in either chamber or magazine" in or on a motor vehicle (boats excepted). It is in the DEC hunting guide, I...

    Been catching up on my reloading a little bit at a time due to the corn-teens and snow. Thanks to a member here - cough, @Nighttrain, cough - I had a "few" .38 Spl. cases to work with. Dug deep and found a 500 count box of Hornaday 148 gr. HBWC from 1992 or so and loaded them up. Out of...

    This is what I was afraid of, that I probably know that other guy as well. This is not a one sided tragedy. Don't know who it is and don't look forward to learning who it is because that is gonna hurt like hell, too. But thanks for the information.

    I have tried to stay out of this one but given some of the previous comments and speculation I have to say a few things. I have been a Life member of USPSA since 1994. I played the game hard for a number of years. I went the Range Officer and then Chief Range Officer route. I have worked a lot...

    Here is a TABOO Topic - Can Mentally Handicapped vote ?

    Ah, we always have to have carved out exceptions, don't we? And how do we identify those with genuine disabilities versus the just plain lazy & averse to inconvenience? Where do we strike the balance? Or do we even try? Maybe we just say "Piss on it. Anyone, citizen of this country or not, can...

    Here is a TABOO Topic - Can Mentally Handicapped vote ?

    With age comes the ability to say, "Maybe I'm old fashioned but......" I think absentee voting should be limited to those members of the military or government employees serving outside CONUS.

    Observations and thoughts on this election day

    I'll throw out an early 2nd hand observation that may lend credence to the published predictions that most conservative voters would hold off and vote in person and there would be a larger than normal number of such voters.
