Bear Grylls knives..

AR's - one each -

DPMS , Sig Sauer, and Colt.

[Dennis Olson]

My local Wal-Mart has been had AR's. As a matter of fact I bought a Sig M-400 enhanced from them recently. They also have 440 rd. packs of Greentip-ss109's. I got some of them. But they have yet to carry spare Mags for ar's yet.

Mine is also selling a lot of rails and such. It helps that the guy who runs the sporting goods section is a firm believer in the 2nd Ammend. He and I can discuss anything even CCW, which we both do.

[Dennis Olson]

I didn't know China made ARs...

I wish we could buy cheap Chinese ammo, for training...but alas that was cut off in the 90's.....


Keep the good American stuff for "Der Tag."

How much is the ar15?

[Captbill]

Our WW cannot keep ARs in stock nor the ammo---gone as soon as they come in.

[naturallysweet]

Yes, but they may only sell them to men.

Walmart refuses to sell shotgun to woman, says it's 'Too much gun'

Shooting as a pastime is getting more and more popular every day. **snip** This is especially true with women, who are leading the curve as the fastest-growing segment of the market. But we still get reports of stories like this one, about Prayse Dangler, who was prohibited to buy a shotgun by her local Walmart staff—because a Mossberg 930 was too much gun for a woman.

"Yesterday at Walmart I tried to buy a shotgun to keep at the house with me when Brad is gone. We live in the heart of downtown New Albany where there is a lot of foot traffic, and we believe that me having a reliable way to protect myself and our baby when Brad isn't here is just a responsible thing to do.

"Here's the kicker though. The man behind the counter looked at me in disbelief when I pointed out the beefy Mossberg 930 Tactical weapon that Brad had researched out for me and planned on taking me out shooting to get comfortable with. The man then proceeded to interrogate me about what I wanted it for and how it would be used. He said that I didn't hold it right and that I needed 'something else better suited to you.' He put it back in the case and firmly refused to sell it—all because I am a petite young woman!

ThAnks Coulter. So is the Sig that much better than the dpms? I see that Bushmaster combined with dpms.

Really?

Where a person purchases a firearm
with the intent of making a gift of the
firearm to another person, the person
making the purchase is indeed the true
purchaser. There is no straw purchaser
in these instances. In the above example,
if Mr. Jones had bought a firearm
with his own money to give to Mr. Smith
as a birthday present, Mr. Jones could
lawfully have completed Form 4473.

I would go with the Sig! Remember Bushmaster got bought out a few years back and the quality ain't what it used to be. As a matter of fact the original owner/guy who started Bushmaster has started another operation after the contract waiting period. I cant remember the name but they are supposed to be jam up and jelly tight!

My understanding too......My wife has bought me a few Pea-shooters as gifts.....

[Milk-maid]

The shotgun may have been too long for a petite woman to handle comfortably, but a expandable shoulder stock would have easily remedied that.

Naturally Sweet, I wish someone would have told me I couldn't buy the gun the store sold. Even the police tell women the best gun for them to have is a shotgun, mounted over a door. I've taken gun classes and I've been told by many guys, you may not even have to shoot the gun b/c when you rack the shotgun (you do this just b4 you aim it) most sane men will recognize the sound and find an easier mark. In spite of that advice I still want to buy a shotgun for my bedroom but I'm waiting for a defensive shotgun class to start up in my area.
At another class I took this year I learned so much I was comfortable enough to buy my own pistol, because my husband's choice of guns he bought for me were really not for me. At the class I took they had about 15 revolvers & semi-autos & we could shoot whatever one we chose, til we couldn't shoot anymore. Only the Glock 23 (I later bought) fit my hand, and was lightweight enough, & had white marks on the front & back sights. I will mention here also, that the Glock was priced over $550 I think, & with a MILITARY DISCOUNT I got it for about $ 425! It also comes in a case that you can store it in until you get a heavy-duty lockcase that suits you. Glock is the company that gave the gun store the discount & I like the idea I'm paying them back for supporting our military. Ladies, I can't emphasize enough: Look for a class that will teach you the basics & will provide guns for you to try out firing at targets!! Good Luck.

iv had problems with wal-mart not selling .45 cal ammo as they said i did have a pistal permit ...mean while right there on their own shelf they were selling marlin camp carbin in .45 cal ...

[Adino]

the one closest to us doesn't sell any cool stuff

we're lucky to get 100 rnd .223 bulk packs in stock

colt m4 for that price would be an absolute no brainer for me

if i were buying today it would be bcm though

my bushmaster rig was all pre '03 and runs like a charm. patrolmen's carbine from when they were made right

such a shame the venture capitalists drove that op into the ground too

you might want to have a round chambered before you go against any bad guys, yes racking a pump gun is distinctive but an empty firearm is a club, would you wait until just before you aim your handgun before you chamber a round? not being snide i just can't stand this notion that gets put out of chambering a round when your in the proximity of the bad guy, if you are picking up a firearm to defend yourself, make it ready straight away

[Millwright]

WW's here are stocking a DPMS AR-10 for under 1K.

I have been passing my eyeballs across them for awhile.

[Dennis Olson]

"Rack the shotgun and the bad guys will run away" is from Hollywood. Anyone who believes this has seen too many movies. The object of bringing a firearm to bear on a bad guy(s) is to save your life or the lives of your loved ones. Does any "sane person" want to "go all Hollywood" at that particular instant in time?


Freakin spare me....

35 years ago two guys were trying to break into my trailer at 2AM. I had a 12 gauge pump in corner beside my door I pumped it and they took off running to their car, I opened the door and pointed it at them as they were getting in the car.

A girl was inside and immediately started crying - please don't Mister.

One of guys changed his mind and started coming back at me I shut the door and waited for him to come through it.

Next thing I know they are driving off.

[Housecarl]

I didn't know China made ARs...

And the Iranians and Sudanese and a Filipino company make a copies of the Norinco CQ as well. Actually has a rather wide spread of overseas sales, both government and civilian.

A company in Switzerland has bought up Astra and as well as making the 1911 Daytona they're also making an AR too the stG4

Thanks Marthanoir, you are correct. I was only looking at the Norinco product.

Marstar in Canada is selling the CQ, it seems to be getting a good reception, one of the local lads here is ex Aussie SAS and he uses Norinco products all the time, says he has no problem with them

[Halfdar]

Should have told him it was for your husband's birthday.

Should have told him he was being a complete sexist dick and waved a civil suit at him....

[Dennis Olson]

One of guys changed his mind and started coming back at me I shut the door and waited for him to come through it.


He's lucky it was you. I'd have shot him.

I've seen some reviews online of Norinco products and aside from some comments on finish, functionally they've seemed to be mostly positive.

[Coulter]

He's lucky it was you. I'd have shot him.

I also had only been awake about 3 minutes - my mind was racing - will I be charged with murder if I shoot him as he is coming towards me? I couldn't decide. So I shut the door backed up and waited.

I didn't lock the door.

But I knew if he came through the door that I could shoot him and would - no doubt.

And at the same time I was freaking out trying to comprehend how somebody would actually run towards a guy with a 12 gauge shotgun aimed at him.

When I heard the car start to drive off I couldn't believe it nor did I trust it. It took me 5 minutes aiming the gun at the door trying to figure out if he's out there can I get the door locked before he could open it?

But they were gone.

Next day I was putting extra locks all over the place.

[Dennis Olson]

The really nice thing about having two hundred-pound German shepherds is that NOBODY tries to break into my house. Ever.
