Only have handguns and a shotgun but I have been thinking about AR-15 lately.
Where is a good place to buy lowers (and what would I expect to pay)? And which one(s) are highly recommended for home defense? I hear you can take them hunting ... but ...
thanks,
Harold

Re: advice on ffl transfer
Ok thanks guys for the info. I thought I was going in circles. I wanted to buy local but none of the dealers around here that I called could find a distributor with the model I wanted in stock (even s&w top gun dealers). I did my homework, the out of state dealer is in Kentucky, http://www.whitt...

advice on ffl transfer
Hello, I have purchased a pistol over the Internet today from out of state and it is being shipped to my local dealer for transfer. This is my first time to buy a gun this way. The seller (out of state) told me that they don't give a receipt for the firearm purchase due to laws in Texas ... that I'm...

High Caliber Gun and Knife Show
Hello,
I've never been to a gun show. Is the one at George R Brown this weekend (Feb 16-17) a good one to attend ($8 entry)?
thanks
Harold

Got my PIN
Hey everyone, I was a total newb a few weeks ago and had to figure a lot of stuff out for myself. So I'm going to be really basic for others who may be as I was. One important thing I learned is that LEO stands for Law Enforcement Officer. That's probably the least obvious jargon I had to figure out...

Is this room padded?
Hello, Love this site ... New applicant here. Took class late Dec, mailed packet the 31st, check cleared Jan 9th. Still no PIN letter. I called today and "Simone" answered after about 8 mins and said it takes 4-6 weeks to be entered into the system. I asked if she would verbally give me my...

Re: Church Threat Response
Thanks flintknapper, that's what I needed to see. I found that in my handbook also - I guess it is just confusing to this non-lawyer the way it is written (i.e. you can't do this ... oh that doesn't apply). So this is good news to me! Has anyone ever heard of a church posting 30.06 signs in Texas? H...

Re: Church Threat Response
Hello, This is my first post on this excellent forum. I am in the "agonizing wait" period - it has been 4 weeks since I took the CHL class and mailed my packet (check cleared 1/9). Anyway, I am a bit confused by this post. I thought a "place of worship" is one of the prohibited a...
