I want to start off by saying I know that I made a mistake. I am better informed now. I took advantage of the generous offer to register my AR pistol as an SBR. There, I said it. Now that it is done, can I change the stock from the brace to a standard stock? If so, would I change the buffer tube as ...

Always have your tools on your body, but be prepared to go "hands on" if necessary.

After you master the draw, search for the "torture dot drill" :shock: Wow! To paraphrase, "I'm gonna need a bigger target" Along with less caffeine (my red dot often looks like the bouncing ball following song lyrics). Thanks for the info. That honestly looks like a great way to...

I recently observed my first match at my local range (I was there to use the range but there were matches going on everywhere, so I pulled up a chair). I was quite impressed with the ability of the vast majority of the competitors and thought that if I was going to join in, I would need some work. I...

According to Redstate, the gunman had another rifle in reserve in the restroom. Only 15 seconds to take out the bad guy. https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2022/07/19/the-details-of-how-good-guy-with-gun-took-out-indiana-mall-mass-shooter-are-even-more-amazing-n598228 Great article!! 10 shots in 15 se...

Most of my close friends are actually quite liberal. It's ok, they are never dismissive of my opinions nor I of theirs (mostly...) However, I came across this quote years ago and it's still my favorite response during the eventual "That would never happen" phase of the 2A discussion: "...

My original thoughts were along the line of what I've seen of old westerns where the shooter rapidly "flicks" the hammer without pulling the trigger. I was willing to give the DISCHARGE a ruling of accidental but that's why we have 4 rules, not just one. You have to break more than one rul...

Handgunlaw.us is a good place to start. https://www.handgunlaw.us/states/arkansas.pdf Very informative. I think that I had all of my questions answered just from that fact sheet. You should consider OC spray as a less contentious self defense tool. Even when carrying a deadly force tool, it is good...

My daughter is leaving for college this fall and it is a 7 hour drive. She will be traveling between Texas and Arkansas. She is 19. I am looking for resources about whether she can have a firearm in her vehicle. I have asked Uncle Google but I can't find anything clear (not that I expect laws to be ...

Actually, there was protesting and street violence in Portland, OR this past weekend. https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/index.ssf/2018/10/portland_demonstrators_protest.html They are marching for Justice - "These cops need to be locked up!" In the 10th paragraph, we get to the why of th...

I’ll kick my own topic off with my most common observation:

Will someone - anyone - who mentions NRA (or LTC) members please use acts committed by those members for their examples.

I can’t imagine Dallas being any safer than when the convention kicks off.

Dallas Mayor (Pro-Tem) calls for NRA to move 2018 convention.

I haven’t seen this posted elsewhere.

Government entities cannot post the signs unless the place is an off-limits place such as courthouses or schools. However, Federal property is always off-limits per Federal law and as such do not need those signs. Not to a nit-picker, but some do anyway. Unfortunately, it's still up to the courts t...

I would assume (I know, I know) that the LEO is pro LTC or he wouldn't be teaching the course. Having said that, I thought it odd that he would be so outside on this particular matter. Even in a structured course such as the LTC, I can always tell which parts the instructor has a passion about. In t...

Disclaimer: I have read just about every post on this topic and I am aware that it has been discussed to death, so I am sorry to bring it up again. I am a very recent LTC Texan and the topic of prohibited locations was brought up in the class. According to my instructor (an active & senior local...
