In any other state... just not CT.




LOL. :roll:

Sane_shooter: There is absolutely no legal criteria to own a BP firearm. I personally purchased an 1851 Navy and an 1858 Remington from Cabela's without so much as them looking at my I.D. NOW. On the other hand... if you manage to convert it to fire cartridges, then it becomes a "modern" h...

Ammo legality:

So anyway, I have a Hi-point 995 (the Carbine) I just bought not too long ago. It's fun, don't get me wrong, but I'm still a little worried about one thing: I can't legally buy the ammo (I'm only 18yrs. old), but am I allowed to possess/transport it... or am I committing a huge no-no? Thanks again e...

Hooray for being a young, single, caucasian male! I get screwed out of $30 on each paycheck!!!



Thank you all-wise legislators, I surely couldn't use that money to get ahead in life! :evil:

Oh dearie me, may the Lord forbid someone that would otherwise do me harm, should be harmed... that would be *terrible*... Why aren't we all thinking about the children??? The burglar could have a bunch of illegitimate children that rely on the State, and maybe the burglar is just a good guy trying ...

Well... it depends. Are we talking about Stoeger pumps, or doubles? The only experience I have with their pump actions is just for the matter that I've shot one once. I honestly wasn't too impressed... I'll stick with my Featherlights. They seem like a solid gun, but... for me that still remains to ...

I don't think the problem came from the child having access to a firearm. If anything, he could've easily constructed an explosive device, and caused even more damage. It comes from bad parenting. What makes a child want to bring a gun into school, and shoot down their classmates??? I'm only 18, and...

Don't panic!
Shortly, all responsible gun-owners will be legislated into a criminal class and then you won't need a permit. Just imagine all the rights we will have then and all the bogus laws that will then be nonapplicable to us!

Sir, your point is valid!!!

Jeez. With the way things are headed with our legislators... I can probably forget ever getting my pistol permit (3yrs).

I'm surprised they really haven't made a huge run at CCW :roll:

J, I do the same exact thing. I'll look in the fridge wanting something that I know isn't there... weird.

That's what I thought. Last thing I would want to do is irritate our friends in gray.


Anyway, thank you very much.

Howdy everyone, anyway I just got onto the forum and am happy to say that I'm a gun nut that lives in CT. Anyway, I happen to enjoy black powder guns, and I had a couple quick questions. Now, I'm only 18yrs of age (so no "real" handguns, can't even get one of the permits), but the 1851 Col...
