50 Caliber Bullet Bottle Opener
I found a guy selling them online for $6.95 and bought a bunch as gifts. Opening a bottle with them is a real hassle,

Investing in Firearms Industry
I bought Ruger right before Obama got elected. It's trading at 3 times what I paid for it. I bought S&W at the same time and it just took a huge hit. Maybe the perfect time to buy more.

walther p22 thoughts?
I have one also. I like the gun, but it's picky with ammo. I also bought a GSG 1911-22. Much nicer gun and feeds anything. Not really the same style gun obviously.

stackon change combo
Cool link. Funny that after all these years it's still basically the same procedures. Some higher security applications use a Mas Hamilton X07 lock now.

I've been staying off gun sites for the last few days. I'm a gun hoarder and need help.

stackon change combo
I'm in the lock business. Safes usually have three ways to change the combo. Key change, hand change and random change. Most cheaper safes are random change. You take off the back cover and move the screw to another hole and then dial the combo to figure out the new combo. The sucky part of these locks is that you cant pick your combo. All good safe locks are Group II and are key change and have an access hole through the back of the body. Most times the inside cover of the safe will have a hole that allows access to the change tool hole. Worst case send me a message and email me a picture and I'll tell you how to get it changed.

Watch "The Cove" one night. The way the Japanese treat Dolphins is sad.

biometric safes
I'm in the safe and lock business and personally wouldn't trust any of the lower cost Biometric locks. The only one I would use on my own safe is the S&G version. It's not cheap, but it's the best on the market. I personally can't justify the cost and upgraded to the S&G 6120 electronic group II lock. Cheap enough to justify and reliable enough not to worry about it opening.

Gun Pictures..... Lets What Ya Got
I've only had it for a week, but so far it's been o.k. with no real issues. I do want to try some various ammo and see how it feeds and ejects. As expected, it has almost no recoil. I bought it more as a toy and can't really see where it has any other real purpose. I didn't really expect too much from it, but it's kind of fun (and cheap) to shoot.

Gun Pictures..... Lets What Ya Got
The gun I posted is a lightened version of the standard pistol and must weigh less than 50oz to be legal in NY. I actually had it on order for 1 1/2 years and the ATF finally approved it for sale. It uses standard GSG rifle mags, but we can't have anything larger than 10 rounds in scenic NY.

Beretta 96 and barrell conversion
I have a 92FS (American) and a 96F (Italian) and can swap the entire slide over. You can also use the magazines.

M&P 9
I bought one after shooting two at my local gun club. I'm more of an all steel guy and NEVER thought I would buy a gun like the M&P. It's a great gun and the adjustable backstrap makes it easy to fit any size paw. I'm not giving up my Beretta any time soon, but highly recommend the M&P. Looking to buy a .45 version next.

9 L.I Gun Shop Employees Charged With Selling Assault Weapons
The main issue seems to be with the owner of T&T Tactical who has a huge lawsuit pending over some previous issues with the county. The rest appear to have been caught up in the mess. I sure hope this case falls apart.

9 L.I Gun Shop Employees Charged With Selling Assault Weapons
Yup....that's it. I just didn't think it would be cool of me to promote a another forum. Its going to be a tough road for these guys. The best part is this cost Nassau residents 80k.

9 L.I Gun Shop Employees Charged With Selling Assault Weapons
I haven't seen anybody post a link to the video footage yet. http://www.newsday.com/video/gun-arrests-1.2695375 I am a mod on another forum and know most of the guys who were arrested. TnT took the biggest hit and has had a shady reputation on Long Island for many years. The rest of the stores have a great reputation and would be shocked if any of the charges stick. They were all held for 24 hrs and then released. The sad part is it's going to cost a fortune for them to defend themselves even if the charges get dropped. They only hit the Nassau shops and a two of the other big stores were not part of the investigation. They claim that buyers from these stores were arrested, but NOBODY on our forum knows anyone or heard about anyone being arrested. That seems a little strange!
