      The 2A Project

      What is the organization's opinions on Constitutional carry and restorative rights to own guns for non-violent/low level felons who have served their time? I feel these, at least the latter, get left out in many gun right discussions due to the stigma they hold. It is a topic that I feel is...

      New member looking for some advice

      AR pistols are one of the best options for HD, they are compact, have a good caliber that is often known to not over penetrate due to fragmenting, and able to equip any accessory on it you need. Shotguns are outdated for HD and risk more collateral damage with the spread if you're not fully on...

      What will you do when the riot reaches your neighborhood?

      this thread just has a bit of a glow around it, seems like a whole "oh hello fellow firearm owners, it is I, fellow firearm owner, how extreme would you fine fellows go if a peaceful group of rioters came to you, would you open fire on them? That sure is wacky". Just kinda seems like a way...

      firearms in Illinois willed to indiana gun owner?

      I think technically not, unless pistols. If I'm not mistaken, rifles can be transferred f2f over state lines, but pistols are where the legality comes up. I'm no lawyer tho, so I might be mistaken.

      Colt again selling to us mere mortals

      Because the reason they gave for not selling ARs was some "we don't believe these weapons belong on the streets" type of answer. It is true that everyone knew they weren't selling and needed a way out, but they tried to get some brownie points with the anti-gun crowd by making it a morality...

      Remington files for bankruptcy.

      Except Remington was a lower standard, if a company lowers quality and expects to charge the same price, they are not a good company. I don't care about "they're an old company", if they can't survive in a market where there are more selections of better quality for better prices, then they have...

      Remington files for bankruptcy.

      Honestly? Good riddance, they have intentionally lowered quality of their guns, to the point where 870s rust after only a year or so, abysmal QC, terrible PR, and poor prices that can be found elsewhere for much better quality. I would trust my life to a Kel-tec over a nu-remington. Now let me...

      Colt again selling to us mere mortals

      lol, Colt tried to make a big moral statement and realized their market doesn't care, then they realized that the only people that would miss them are the few still clinging onto "MUH COLT AR IS DA BEST OUT DER, AIN'T NO OTHER MAKER MAKES EM BETTER, DEY MADE DEM IN VIET-NAAAAAAAAM AND IT'S...

      What are you smoking or What do you enjoy smoking (Pipe & Cigar Thread)

      Hello, I don't smoke, but while I was on a vacation in the Caribbean a month and a half ago and bought some Cubans to give to some buddies, as a gift, and was wondering the best way to store them for hopefully not too much longer without having a humidor. I would also be interested if there are...

      Ballistic Advantage barrel?

      I have a 9mm AR barrel, and it works great with good accuracy. BA makes good quality stuff.

      What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

      Finished Community the other night, I have it playing in the background as I work from home, and then tonight started the series Waco on Netfilx. but will reserve that for when I can give full attention to watch. It is so far a great show and really shows how bad the ATF and FBI were in the...

      Oddball PDW's

      The x39 PDW, it just does more ballistically than the .22lr. 22 is, for all intents and purposes, a range toy/squirrel round, and won't do as much, comparatively, if you needed it.

      Free (again) at last. Free at last! Cali ammo background checks reversed

      What does this mean for orders already placed? will retailers need to cancel orders, or are orders already made still able to be shipped in?

      Today's firearms that will become expensive collectors in years to come?

      if we're talking like 20-30 years from now, of guns being made now, then I'd have to say any sort of the weird experimental/non-traditional guns we see now. Mosins will likely stop being a "buy and change" gun, as less and less are being found at good prices, and people will be less likely to...

      Same Small Arms on Both Sides of Conflict

      I'm gonna get semantic and say that the FN FAL and L1A1 are technically different, one being metric and the other being imperial (respectfully). The FN FAL was able to be full auto and had various different parts that couldn't be interchanged with the L1A1. The L1A1 was functionally unable to...
