      will there ever be .22 again?

      Darn. Where the heck is that?

      will there ever be .22 again?

      Whoa. .22LR ammo porn!

      will there ever be .22 again?

      I don't think I've ever chimed in on this issue here on Bayou Shooter, so hey- what the heck. You may not like this, though. The reason the .22 ammo shortage has lasted this long is that retailers and consumers have refused to allow simple supply and demand work to stabilize the market. When...

      Ruston/Lincoln Parish Rifle Ranges?

      Thanks. Do you know if they have a website? I tried getting in touch with them by phone and email, but no success.

      Ruston/Lincoln Parish Rifle Ranges?

      Are there any outdoor ranges in or around Ruston? If so, does anyone have any information on them? Public? Private? Membership costs?

      Baton Rouge Outdoor Rifle Range?

      I saw that one. Not too far from where I'm staying. Have you been there? Looks pretty nice on their website.

      Thanks, spec. I'm only here through Friday. :( Really appreciate the offer, though.

      Gun law that excludes felons is upheld by Louisiana Supreme Court

      Well, I think you're missing the point. The issues are first, what is the compelling state interest in infringing on the firearms rights of felons? Public safety? Punishment? Deterrence? Assuming the government can establish a compelling interest, they need to show the law in question is...

      Baton Rouge Outdoor Rifle Range?

      That place looks nice. Do you know if they have daily memberships? Looks as though it's a private club.

      Gun law that excludes felons is upheld by Louisiana Supreme Court

      No. Maybe that was once true. Part of my point was that so many things have become felonies these days that it's anything but a narrow category.

      Baton Rouge Outdoor Rifle Range?

      I did find them,but their rifle range is closed until the end of this month.

      Gun law that excludes felons is upheld by Louisiana Supreme Court

      Once you get past the knee jerk reaction that felons are scum and don't deserve any rights, the LA Supreme Court's ruling in this case really got me a bit perturbed. Our constitution in Section 11 states: "The right of each citizen to keep and bear arms is fundamental and shall not be...

      Baton Rouge Outdoor Rifle Range?

      Hey all. I'm gonna be in Port Allen for a few days and would like to do a little shooting. Is there an outdoor rifle range in or near Baton Rouge?

      Where to buy used rifles?

      Where are good places to find used firearms in the Monroe/West Monroe are? I particularly like lever guns and .22's. Also, where are good places in LA to take a day trip to shop for guns? Simmons in Bastrop and Spotted Dog in Columbia are nice, but I need somewhere new. Any suggestions would...

      22 LR For Black Friday?

      I don't know why, but I gotta think that there will be 22 LR in the stores come Friday to kick off the Christmas shopping season. The stores have lots of 22 rifles and handguns in stock, and it won't be easy to sell them without ammo. Here in the Twin Cities, we don't have Bass Pro, Gander...

      Are Louisiana's CCW Laws Unconstitutional?

      True, very true. So many of the things government claims are so important to the safety and general welfare of the citizens are really nothing more than revenue generators. Take those "inspection stickers" in the windshield of every vehicle. Anyone ever actually have an inspection done in order...

      Are Louisiana's CCW Laws Unconstitutional?

      It wasn't my intention at all to lay a foundation for restrictions on 2nd Amendment rights. Those here who seem to have no problem with being fingerprinted to get a concealed carry permit actually scare me a bit. My belief is that very few of the laws we have regulating firearms are...

      Are Louisiana's CCW Laws Unconstitutional?

      Not reinforcement at all. I don't trust the courts. I also don't trust legislators, but at least they are more accountable to voters than judges tend to be. I'm saying try to make gun laws constitutional before they are challenged in court. No rights are absolute. Shouting "fire" in a crowded...

      Are Louisiana's CCW Laws Unconstitutional?

      I'm somewhat pessimistic about how the Louisiana Supreme Court will end up resolving this issue. What I really would like to see is for the legislature to take a serious stab at trying to modify as many of the firearms laws on the books to make them likely to withstand challenges and to make...

      Are Louisiana's CCW Laws Unconstitutional?

      Just read a thread on how long it takes to get a CCW permit. It seems folks are reporting it takes anywhere from a few days to 60-90 days after applying. That really makes me wonder. In light of our newly strengthened state "2nd amendment" here, I think you could make a strong argument that...
