There are a couple of new regulations for deer hunters to know before the 2019 season begins. The first concerns use of natural deer lures and attractants. In an attempt to prevent the spread of Chronic Wasting Disease to SC deer herds, these are specifically banned for use in SC with the...

I have two choices for a shooter: For an autoloader, I love my Remington 1100's in 12 and 20 gauge. For a pump, my choice is the Remington 870 Wingmaster in 12 and 20 gauge. For looks and sentiment, I love my Browning Belgian Auto 5 in 12 gauge, but it is strictly a collector's gun, not a...

This E-Mail is copied form another source, but is important for all of us. There is considerable dispute about the accuracy of the e-mail, with Yeti claiming that they did not single out NRA for elimination, but that it was part of a broader change. They also claim they are offering a newer...

Thanks for your reply. You make a very good point about privacy. I appreciate it and I will adjust my buying practices just a little. As you point out, I should be hesitant to give my information to a complete stranger, but I am also torn by the need to protect myself and provide the source of a...

Another thought, and maybe an unpopular one: I am opposed to using loopholes to obtain firearms. I've seen too many exchanges at gun shows where proper proof of residency was not requested from the seller or buyer, for example. I also see the same "private sellers" at shows year after year...

Laws are tricky - please understand them before you engage in any firearm transaction. It is YOUR responsibility to be sure you abide by the appropriate laws. Here is my understanding of current Federal and SC state law regarding transfer of a handgun to anyone between the ages of 18 and 21...

I tend to look for the unusual I guns now. I have the basics - AR15, .22 rifle and pistol, 9mm, hunting rifle... I've always been fascinated by the .45-70 cartridge and in looking at a new Henry, this seems to stand out above the big boy carbines and the .30-30 and .44 magnum. Questions: How...

Does anyone have experience with this cartridge? I'm considering adding a Henry .45-70 to my small collection. Also, any suggestions for a firearm in this caliber other than the Henry?

I'm going to be there. Anyone else? What are you going to be looking for? I'm going more for the unusual right now.

I have a Hi Point 995TS FG in 9mm that I picked up at a Greenville gun show about three years ago. It is a blast (no pun intended) and inexpensive to shoot. I would like to replace the rear sight with something a little more sturdy, but I really like it just as it came from the factory. My only...

Welcome from Greenville.

Don't give up. We need for those still here to come up with ways to spread the word that the forum is active and is a place for SC shooters to exchange ideas, buy/sell, etc. I'm thinking maybe passing out cards or flyers at gun shows, direct email to forum members, maybe spreading the word on...

hopefully some good deals om AR's. I would not be surprised to see entry level AR's in the 450-500 range. Especially since you can build a PSA AR for 450 using on-sale uppers and complete lowers.

Anybody planning to go? Since it's the last for four months, I hope it will be good.

I have a beautiful late 1960's Remington 700 ADL. However, I have been unable to use it since it had an accidental discharge while deer hunting. Looks like we now have a resolution from Remington. This settlement received preliminary approval last week, and Remington is now accepting claims...
