    Found a used Safari Arms Enforcer 1911 today

    imported post So I was at a local gun shop distributing Oregon gun rights pamphlets and plugging OCDO when I saw a 4" 1911 pistol (been wanting one). My interest was piqued. Then I saw that it was $550. Then wheels started turning. So anyway, if I can somehow sort of maybe try to get a hold of...

    WTT ammo

    imported post Hey Tri-Cities folk, I have 200 rounds of .45 ACP lead semi-wadcutter ammo that won't eject correctly from my XD. It is just a design thing. It fires 1 at a time beautifully. Anyway, I just bought a Saiga .308 and need some ammo. Anyone want to make a trade? I am well aware that...

    Springfield XD 45 + SWC bullets = no good

    imported post So, I reloaded nearly 500 rounds with 200gr lead SWC bullets (.452 diameter). They don't eject correctly in my XD because the case being pulled back by the extractor catches on the lip of the bullet at the top of the magazine. Anyone else had this problem? Putting one in the...

    Found myself OCing in an interesting place last night... :)

    imported post Let me preface this by saying: 1) I know that when I OC I am doing nothing wrong, but police make me a little nervous because of the stories I have read abut here. 2) I make sure to do my best to not look nervous, but alert and confident when I OC as to not bring unnecessary...

    Where do you CC a BUG?

    imported post I have not been OCing for too long, but have been CCing for less. I have actually only CC'd a handful of times in an IWB holster. It is not very comfortable. I am toying with the idea of getting a small gun for ankle carry as a BUG or when I can't OC, but I don't know if that's...

    Traveling across state lines while OC...

    imported post ok, check out this link: http://www.nraila.org/federalfirearms.htm#Sec.%20926A I frequently travel across state lines. Does this law make it illegal to OC in the car when crossing the border? OR does that mean that if the state laws address OC in a car, then I can OC in a...

    imported post Ok, so me and my wife decided to do some camping and road tripping across Oregon. Man, I love this state. I OC'd the whole time and only got hassled at a FREAKIN FIREARMS STORE (Sportsman's Warehouse in Medford). We left Hermiston on Sunday and went to La Pine State Park and...

    Visiting western WA this week.

    imported post I am planning on visiting my mother in Sumner this week and want to make sure I can OC when we are out and about. I read the WA gun laws I could find. Magazine has to be removed and no round in chamber while driving, correct? Storing the firearm in the car means it has to...
