  1. I'm due January 2017. Not worried about renewal. My sheriff is my local FFL, does the local CHP classes, and my Fiancée got her CHP the next day last summer. And she was an out of state case.

  2. America is too stupid to vote for him, though. ...and the wheels on the bus go 'round and 'round...

    America is too stupid to ditch the 2 party system. It's better to vote for "the lesser of two evils" than to vote for who you think is best person for the job. America is also too stupid to quit the electoral college....

  3. But if I know a gun is definitely going to someone other than me, they should be the one to go through the process not me. One of the big talking points for gun rights is the idea of the "responsible law abiding gun owner" and if we're more or less exploiting one of the same so called "loopholes" that criminals do to get guns on the street

    You state that buying a gift is using the "loophole" and it is not. Plain and simple. Knowing who your giving to is being a response gun owner.

  4. Like I said, I'm not judging. Handle the purchases how you want, it's your business not mine. Gifting and personal transactions are perfectly legal the way you're describing. But if I know a gun is definitely going to someone other than me, they should be the one to go through the process not me. One of the big talking points for gun rights is the idea of the "responsible law abiding gun owner" and if we're more or less exploiting one of the same so called "loopholes" that criminals do to get guns on the street then we are not helping the cause in terms of setting a good example. Of course, the critical thing is that we don't go and do something stupid with the guns and don't go selling/transferring the legally purchased gun to someone who shouldn't have it in the first place. in that regard, I think most gifted and privately sold guns are perfectly kosher, but like I said, doesn't set a good example in some cases.

    As long as you know who you are giving the gift to, the loophole point is moot. I know my Fiancée isn't gonna sell a gun, and she isn't gonna use it in nefarious way. She even has her Ohio CHP. Be a responsible gun owner and know who you're giving the gift. Don't act like it's some terrible thing to do. One of the best things you can do for your wife/Fiancée/girlfriend is get them into shooting. The SR22 I got her is one of her favorite to shoot and plink with, right after her bow (that I also bought her).5f73cd88ef9d359edb1d557bf625e0c9.jpg
  5. honestly, you should do the transaction for your gun and your wife should be doing it for hers. Not judging but that's how it's supposed to work.

    What if the gun is a gift? He can't gift a gun to his wife?

    Edit: I already know the answer. I've bought all of my Fiancée's rifles as gifts and 1 of her handguns.

  6. Check out motorcyclegear.com for cheap gear. We scored her Sidi boots there for $130 (which is an absolute steal). But my Fiancée is tiny at 5'0" and 100 lbs, so if you can find gear her size, it's usually on clearance. Lol

    Edit: also check STG... they had alot of women's clearance stuff too

  7. Most muncipaities have ordinances prohibiting the discharge of any firearm within city limits. There are affirmative defenses for instances of home invasions, etc., but WITHOUT LOOKING UP ANY SPECIFIC CODES, I believe it's an M4 where I live. Probably a just a fine.

    From an ORC perspective, it's been a while since I have looked it up, but my recollection is DO NOT FIRE OVER ANY ROADS, and don't create a "substantial risk of physical harm," or cause actual harm to any person, and you're still looking at misdemeanors. Probably an M1 though, so jail time is possible, and not completely unlikely.

    Shooting downward so you can credibly and confidently say that any missed shots impacted the ground behind your target would be a good idea. Recovering the bullets from the ground with an impartial witness would be better.

    Not getting caught would be best... I try to keep things inconspicuous and legal whenever possible. Pellet gun is about as far as I'll go unless a coyote is actively attacking my dog.

    Or just use a bow. Silent killer.
  8. My Father in law knows 100% for a fact that his Jack Russel was killed by yotes, 1 lured him in back to the others "he witnessed it" and he never came home.......he ALWAYS comes home. Of course those were country yotes, I have never seen more than 1 at any given time in my burb.

    My parents had the same thing happened, but the yote died and not the dog. After a snow storm, the parents dogs would go nuts every night, dad would yell, dogs would go to the barn and go to sleep. Finally one clear, full moon night, the dogs went nuts again and dad finally saw why. He grabbed the gun and walked outside. His dogs, knowing that shit was about to hit the fan, darted for the barn. Dad shot at the yote and it tore off running. Thought he missed. Took the snowmobile out the next day and found it about 100 yds out in the field, frozen stiff.

  9. I guess I just had a bad experience with them. I cancelled an ebay order (my fault) and they never refunded my money. Luckily I checked after a month but no refund. Sent email to their customer service and they said they never got the money...they told me this 2x...even though it was clearly a completed transaction on paypal. Had to file a paypal claim when they finally "found" the money and refunded me. I wouldn't have trusted them again, but maybe with all these + reviews I would....

    I would blame the shit hole that is PayPal.
