    Is it really worth me moving to Illinois for work?

    I've lived in IL since 1965. Cook county absolutely sucks and I wouldn't live there for any amount of money. As long as you reside elsewhere in the state, your weapons and ammo aren't a problem. There are no real restrictions of any kind, other than the fact that you would need to apply for a...

    Report From the Tulsa Arms Show

    We go every April and are flying in on Friday morning. Tulsa is fun because it's like an Easter egg hunt; you have to search the whole show to find what you are looking for. There are so many types of guns there that it's hard to describe. Lots of collectible stuff, some newer things and some...

    Flying with a pistol.

    I love flying with any weapon. No matter how long the lines are, go up to the first airline employee that you see and tell them that you have a gun to check; you go right to the front or to the special screening area where there is no line. I usually depart from Ohare in Chicago and it's never...

    Training Courses Traveling with ammo?

    I've flown with ammo many times. The limit is 11 lbs, doesn't matter what it is. Each time I've flown it's been different; sometimes they ask to see the ammo boxes and sometimes they don't. However, I have never actually had them weigh the ammo but I know friends who have been weighed. Just have...

    Lumimox "Navy Seal" watch questions

    I wear my Luminox 24 hours a day; I literally never take it off. I have beat the living crap out of it and other than 1 battery change, it has run flawlessly.

    hey whats a good muzzle break for a 260 rem?

    I have the Badger Thruster on my 260 and it feels like a 223. I really don't notice the noise but then again my hearing is crap.

    Report From the Tulsa Arms Show

    The highest I saw 22 LR was $90 for a brick of 550. Cheapest 223 was $299 for 500 but I also saw $399 for 500 and $499 for 500. Today I saw 500 rounds of Black Hills 308 for $1000. AR's were everywhere and mostly overpriced, no surprise there. I also noticed that the dealers selling new...

    Report From the Tulsa Arms Show

    Hi everyone. I just flew home from Tulsa and let me say that Saturday's attendance was incredible; you couldn't even move through the aisles. Here's something even more amazing: the building housed hundreds of thousands of guns, tens of thousands of people and who knows how many rounds of ammo...

    Shooting Mats

    I'm big on made in the USA stuff, so I searched around and found the Crosstac Long Range mat. Nice padding and has a front bipod rail. Manufactured by our fellow citizens in the beautiful state of Montana. The only drawback is that it's triple the cost of the Midway mat, but I'm willing to spend...

    When is this prepper/zombie/EOTW TREND going to RE-make it's way out of shooting sports???

    So it's Ok for you "old" preppers to hoard things but not the "new" preppers? Give me a break. What makes you such an authority? As far as bringing in new shooters, I think it's fantastic! The more people that get involved in the shooting sports, the better. It gives us that much greater of a...

    Greg Rodriquez killed by Apparently Jealous Husband

    Even if it wasn't "innocent" (and in this case it was), it doesn't give anyone the right to slaughter another person due to jealousy. That's what counseling sessions with your pastor are for, or in a worst case scenario, lawyers and divorce court are for.

    Boycott Cheaper than Dirt forever!!!

    Hahaha! I don't know where you are from, but I'm from the Chicago area where we have a long history with both the Mafia and street gangs. Years ago it was the Italian mob, now we have black gangs, white gangs, mexican gangs, chinese gangs, russian gangs, etc., etc. And if you think for one...
