    My grandpa got a lot of deer with his rifle then forgot what happened to it. I guess he lost it some 40+ years ago.

    That's a shame! You don't see too many of these carbines around, pretty hard to come by.

    On a recent range trip I found some .30 carbine brass so I assume someone in the area has one. Something else my grandpa had were a pair of Ruger blackhawk revolvers in .30 carbine complete with holsters and bandoleers. He traded them off for a load of bricks about 20 years ago though. He's made a lot of crap trades like that. Also had a 1911 from WWI he traded for a .22 revolver.

    Ouch! Not only would that 1911 still faithfully spit lead, it'd also be worth gold!

    Yeah it would be worth a nice chunk of change right now if he still had it.

    After an interesting evening this last weekend, I would have to say that anyone who chooses not to own a firearm is demonstrating a lack of responsibility and ability to defend their family if need be.

    Including a forward grip and pistol grip for extra baby killing power! Think of the children! D: Sounds like a fun range day though. :)

    Still a scary black rifle! :O

    Actually Sunday I took my sister and niece shooting. She wanted her daughter to learn gun safety from me, but she did all the talking so I just supervised. She kept stressing the importance of muzzle discipline to her daughter then later pointed a loaded gun at me.

    I had a friend's nephew cover me with a loaded shotgun.

    I jumped his (*)(*)(*)(*).

    It is not even remotely difficult to keep the muzzle in a safe direction. I do run and gun drills (shooting while moving, mags dumps and changes, transitioning between weapons, etc.) and participated in a tactical handgun/tactical rifle classes.
    Even while doing all of that, I still find it easy to keep the gun in a safe direction.

    My range isn't an official range. It's just an open plot of land in the middle of nowhere where everyone shoots. There's a yellow rail of a gate that stretches across the road which makes for a pretty good firing line. Simple enough of a rule. When the guns are out nobody goes in front of the rail. If someone has to go in front of the rail all the guns get set down muzzles pointed to the left right at the tree line.

    My niece had a hard time comprehending not running in front of the rail, but she's only 5 and this was her first experience with a gun so I cut her some slack though my sister was still quick to correct her for good reason, but my sister has gone shooting before and is old enough to understand what not to do and why to not do it. We were using my grandpas new .22 1911 and the hammer was down so even with a loaded chamber it wouldn't have fired if she pulled the trigger so I wasn't really concerned with my safety so much as I wanted her to realize what she was doing. Lapses in judgment happen. First and foremost I want no harm to come from these mistakes. Secondly I want to correct these mistakes and use them as a wake up call to make sure they don't happen again.

    This is the third time someone has pointed a loaded gun at me this year. I'm thinking of telling new shooters that if they point a gun at me I will punch them in the face.

    A week ago I purchased a revelation 310A shotgun. I don't have a picture since I don't have a camera. I recently made some wax slugs. For those who don't know what those are it's bird shot mixed with wax to make a frangible slug. Anyway I tested it on a gallon glass jug full of water. The jug exploded and sent shrapnel flying back at me. I didn't get hit so no problems there. It was a lot of fun.

    The ODCMP has tons of them for a very fair (read: CHEAP) price. Here are some of mine:
