I used the police chief of the town I live in. If you're in an unincorporated area, it would be the sheriff. It's just telling them who they need to "notify" about your new toy.
Here was my take on it... And this all hypothetical, of course...
Say a fellow had a stack of stripped lowers and enough spare parts lying around to construct an AR pistol or two. According to the ATF, that's constructive intent. So if that gentleman decided that he did not want anything...
I submitted two amnesty electronic Form 1's on March 8th. Both were home builds on Palmetto stripped lowers. Neither showed pictures of the full firearm, just close up of the engravings. 1 was approved today, the other is still pending!
Yep. I have a stack of stripped lowers and had originally planned on building one or two as pistols. I thought about registering them and then just going SBR with the "free" tax stamp. But when you start the process, you have to certify that you ALREADY possess a pistol with a barrel less than...
I have for sale a Springfield Armory XD(m) 3.8 inch compact pistol chambered in .40 cal. Has Truglo night sights that are nice and bright as well. Round count is unknown, but less than 1k. Has some slight holster wear, as it has been carried more than it's been shot.
Includes all the stuff...
I have checked with a couple dealers, including Midwest. They all told me that they didn't have any guns for that program. I ended up ordering online from Bud's. Easy peasy.
No more templates anymore, it's all optical scanning now. All manufacturers carry the same body lines, but the front clip is still slightly different between makes. But still nothing stock whatsoever!
Have a right handed Safariland 6280 level 2 mid ride duty holster in STX finish. Used but in good shape, one scratch on the outside but doesn't affect appearance. Fits 4" XD or 4.5" XDm. $40 shipped.
Maverick 88 12 gauge $100
Up for sale, a Mossberg Maverick 12 gauge. 28" vent rib barrel. It's in decent used shape, barrel is a bit beat up but not bad at all. Action is absolutely smooth as butter. $100, ftf Marshall County.
I've bought a King Tuk for every handgun I've ever carried and they always end up sitting in a drawer. I have a good carry belt, and have tried buying pants a little bigger. It just never seems to work out for me.
I occasionally carry a Ruger LCR .38 spl OWB in a Galco leather holster. I know that it's not the best option available, but sure beats a sharp stick. It's for when the Kimber Ultra Carry or XDM .40 are too bulky or print too much. I've never been able to carry IWB comfortably, so a decent...
No, but it is a gift for a birthday that is coming up. I thought ordering a month ahead of time would be enough, but maybe not. And I have a right to worry about It because they accepted my hard earned money for a supposedly in stock item, so yes, timely shipping is not an unreasonable request...
Like the title says, has Palmetto's shipping fallen off the wagon again? I've ordered several uppers, build kits, and various parts and the last couple years have gotten everything rather quickly, within 3-5 days. Now I ordered one of their (ongoing) specials, Vortex Sparc with 10 PMAGS for $199...
While I certainly can't claim to have done MANY, I have done a few.
Above. By staying above the rib, you avoid the nerves and blood vessels that run on the bottom side of the ribs. Again, another benefit of mid axillary (imaginary line running down the middle of the armpit). You can go in the...
Tourniquets high and tight on the limbs, pack the junctions (neck, armpits, groin), seal the box (torso). Anthing to the head, they were either going to live or die anyway. Easy as pie.
As far as needle decompression goes, it's far less risky than some seem to believe. Go midaxillary and don't...
I'm looking for an inexpensive single shot rifled slug gun. Something along the lines of an H&R Ultra Slug or CVA Hunter, but a bolt gun would work too. Prefer a 12 gauge, but would consider a 20 gauge for the right deal. If someone is looking for something else, I have a single shot New England...
