      180 degree ricochet?

      Ricochet may not be the best word used to describe a bullet actually reversing direction, but I’m very curious to hear of everyone’s knowledge and experience with the possibility of a bullet striking downrange and able to return all the way back to the shooter. I’ve shot plates at both the rifle...

      New Application turnaround

      It took just over 7 months for me. I mailed off the app in mid August 2020 and just received my permit 2 weeks ago. Once they opened and entered it in late February, it took about a month.

      Louisiana law on CCW in businesses

      Thank you so much to everyone’s replies and information. I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something. I kept a CHP for quite a few years, but didn’t bother renewing it some years back. I just renewed it and won’t let that happen again.

      Louisiana law on CCW in businesses

      Does anyone know if and what Louisiana laws are in existence for signage a business must post at their store front and punishment of a CHP holder if they carry into a business prohibiting CCW? I’m not asking this to know how and where to skirt the law, but only to know and obey it. If a...

      Concealed carry on a pedestrian ferry

      Since nobody replied, I take it nobody knew anything about it. However, I wanted to share with everyone what I found out today. I called the Louisiana Concealed Handgun Permit unit to ask them and they told me it's pretty much the same as open carry in Louisiana which is...There's no law for...

      Concealed carry on a pedestrian ferry

      I don't see anything in Louisiana law for CC on a Louisiana ferry. I'm just not sure if there is something that may prohibit carry under some kind of maritime or federal law. Does anyone know if it is legal carry as a pedestrian? I won't be in my vehicle. Thanks

      Colt 1911 Government slide closes when last shot is fired and magazine is empty

      Yep, it was the magazines. I looked through all of them and thankfully, the original mags that came with the pistol had the Colt emblem. When I put the empty Colt mags in and pull the slide back, it stays open. With the other mags, it won't. There is a little bump sticking up off the Colt...

      Colt 1911 Government slide closes when last shot is fired and magazine is empty

      Less than 500 rounds through it. The brand is a Colt Government series 80. The only original Colt Mags I have are the two that came with it. I have bought several 1911 mags from the Kenner gun show in the last year. To be honest, I thought a 1911 mag was a 1911 mag, but from all your...

      Colt 1911 Government slide closes when last shot is fired and magazine is empty

      I figure a 1911 is probably one of the most popular pistols owned and someone will have some answers to the following problem. I was shooting yesterday, and some times the slide would not stay open once the last round was fired. This was happening about 75% of the time with both Winchester...

      Stores in La that prohibit CC

      I've taken the CC class three times and can't remember what the instructors said the law is concerning a store that prohitits CC inside the store. I have searched for the last hour and can't find anything on it. It seems I remember they need to have a certain size sign with certain size...

      When will Louisiana's new gun law go into effect?

      I've been searching the internet and haven't found anything out on this, but I assume it will be January 1st, 2013. Does anyone know for sure?

      Quad rail for Stag model 1?

      I was looking at the UTG Pro quad rails in Leapers website and I was curious which one I would need to order for a Stag Model 1. I think the MTU001S would be the one I'm looking for. My rifle currently has the standard 2 piece forend grip. Does anyone know if this is correct? Also, where is...

      Help with finding mount and rings for a Remington 700 and 30mm scope

      My scope should be coming in sometime in the next week or so and I was hoping for some advice on ordering a 20MOA mount and 30mm rings. I just looked at Badger Ordnance and was shocked at how much they were. I don’t think Jessica Simpson her self in a itty bitty bikini could talk me into...

      Question about installing a Jewell trigger

      When you say the bolt release that came with the action, do you mean the piece that is attached to the trigger assembly? If so, then yes, I did use the one that came with the trigger which is the only part of the bolt release that came with the Jewell. In other words, the bolt release consists...

      Question about installing a Jewell trigger

      Let me see if I can describe this where it makes sense to everyone. I just installed a Jewell trigger on a Remington 700P and everthing is working perfectly…Including the bolt release. However, I’m a little concerned about the position of the bolt release lever before and after the install...

      Help with ordering a Krieger barrel

      I don't know why, but my post wound up posting twice and is the only reason this one exists. I didn't see where I could delete it so I edited it to this.

      Help with ordering a Krieger barrel

      Sorry about that. It’s .308win. I’m more partial to 168 grain SMK, Hornady A-Max or Berger VLD hunting or target bullets because of the slightly higher velocities with less bullet drop at the longer distances. My main goal is to be able to make shots at long distances out to 800 and some day...

      Help with ordering a Krieger barrel

      I want to order a barrel and I don't want to bother the smith until next week. I'm want to get the heavy varmint 1.250 X .900 with a 1 in 10 twist and I'm curious about the following: 1. I hope this isn't a stupid question, but the barrels are offered in 27", 29", 31" & 33". I think I want...

      Mounting a scope

      Is there a sticky or thread for mounting a scope with absolute precision? I looked around a little but didn't see anything. Thanks!
