Just checked (by phone) with all six area Wally Worlds today. No .22, little of anything else. A quick perusal of websites confirmed the same with them. Nine months after the election. Will it ever end? I have a small stash of about 7000 rounds of 22LR (two GI cans full) that I'm determined to hang ...

If I have any other choice, I stay away from UPS. By my experience they could break a cannon ball and lose an aircraft carrier. Every package I get looks like they dragged it behind the truck for the last two miles. Can't just bullets be shipped Postal Service? I know they can't do complete ammo. I ...

Well, I just applied for my carry permit last Monday. Took all of about 30 minutes, including a short wait for fingerprinting and photo. Everyone seemed happy with my DD-214 and no class taken. It should be done and good to pick up by the third week of July (prescribed as 45 days or less). I'm posit...

If only you could load, or somehow reload, .22 rimfire..........

I am .22LR only, except for the extra WMR cylinder with the Single-Six. I'd rather get to shoot a few hundred little holes in one afternoon, than a few dozen in an hour. I can't afford to get very proficient with a centerfire. That's why my carry gun will be a Beretta Bobcat. I debated on an LCP, th...

RUGER-22.......Sir, please prove to me that "single action" revolvers are more accurate than Double Action!!! I am all hears OK. :roll: :roll: :shock: Yes, I did say that for me they are. It seems the grip just holds steadier in my hand, compared to pistols. I don't have a DA revolver right now, bu...

Both are .357 / .38, both are stainless, so being a Ruger fan I'd go with the Blackhawk. For me at least, single actions are more fun and more accurate. The slow loading and ejecting seems to save ammo, too! You didn't state a specific need. If you just WANT IT (don't we all have that problem) I'd g...

My solution for years has been to buy decent quality screwdrivers like Craftsman or Stanley, and grind and/or file them to fit each slot exactly. My current gun collection didn't need that much. My local flea market "tool guy" had some U.S. made Pro-Mate screwdrivers for $1 apiece. The blades weren'...

An email to the local clerk of court (She signs the permits) got me a phone number to the main police official who processes the applications. He gave me the definitive answer. All the statute states is "Honorable Discharge", so that's all it has to be. Whew! Just like the government, having to ask ...

I have my original given me in 1976. I have no kick with proving competence, just the lousy excuse for a class that they let suffice. I got more out of Chris Bird's book than a Rambo class would do.

Bought a Bobcat .22 last week, and got to test it today. Not too bad, got six inch groups at 25 feet with that two inch barrel and near useless sights. The little thing has no ejector, but I only got one FTE in about 150 rounds. I would wish they made it total stainless. You can get it with a stainl...

That's the thing, who knows what a DD-214 actually shows? And I can't get an answer to that. I meet the other requirements 1000%. And handgun proficiency? I've been shooting to varying degrees for thirty years, and I have to prove I know a safety from a mag release.

The base was plenty tight, even with the setscrew loose. I feel certain it wasn't quite centered by Ruger.

Ever since I got my Mark III in November, and especially after my Single-Six in February, I had a puzzle. I could shoot 3 inch groups at 25 yards with the Single-Six right off the bat, all in ten ring after sighting in a bit. And my sight blade stayed centered in the sight body. With the Mark III, i...

I live in a "shall-issue" state, which basically means if you aren't an ex-con, or a nut case, or an illegal immigrant, they have to give you a carry permit. One of the requirements, however, is proof of "competency" with a handgun. This usually means taking an "approved" class, but the requirement ...
