    "No Printing"??

    imported post I keep reading about CC-only states where they have more or less strict "no-printing" rules (meaning that your firearm cannot give ANY evidence it is there such as a bulge, etc. ) What if an old lady slips and fallsand you bend to helpher andthe butt of your weapon "prints"?

    REMEMBER WHEN SEARS HAD GUNS IN THEIR CATALOG?

    imported post For some reason today my reveries drifted back to 1964 and looking through the Sears&Roebuck catalog. I remember the ads for firearms very well.

    How to OC a Walther P.38 without looking like the Gestapo

    imported post Everybody and his Uncle Fudd these days who is not a revolver fan is either a 1911 man or an apostle of striker-fired hardware. Me, I like Walthers. Particularly I like the PP series and the P.38 for reasons which I have sufficiently run my E-mouth about on other threads. And I...

    ANYONE REMEMBER THIS DESIGN?

    imported post Seems to me I saw in Guns and Ammo about 1980 or so a review of a .25 BUG made by - I think - Seecamp. The design was very unusual in that it amounted to a magazine-fed ---- well, SAO doesn't quite ----- ANYWAY. It was supposed to be handled with a two-hand grip and was activated...
