    An interesting / unusual range day on Monday..

    I suppose my most unusual range day started when I pulled up to the locked gate to find a car parked right in front of it with the driver standing outside reading the sign with the range rules. I parked beside him (his car blocked the gate) and approached him. He asked if the range was open to...

    Red dots

    CWP is one and done. I won't be needing it again. Plus, I'd been carrying daily since he was in diapers. I didn't take anything too seriously that day.

    Red dots

    For those of us with older eyes, I consider red dots to be a Godsend, whether it projects a beam on the target or just an image like an RMR. It allows you to focus your eyes on the target instead of the front sight blade. My CWP instructor was very derogatory about them but he was in his...

    State of the Forum March 2013

    I hit the site up regularly but yes, traffic is slow. It's still good to have a SC dedicated site. Adding subforums will likely turn up interest and participation a notch. Getting the word out will likely do more. One thing I do find missing on other sites both national and regional is one...

    SC Constitutional Carry and Open Carry

    There are four Constitutional Carry bills introduced in South Carolina, two each in each chamber. All four versions legalize open carry, require reciprocity with licenses from every state and appear to rescind Duty to Notify. Each was referred to the respective chamber's Committee on Judiciary...

    What should I be paying

    Normal prices for most common rifle powders run between $28-33. Once in a while you find a sale that lowers the cost. More frequently it will be free or reduced shipping costs or waived Hazmat fees that make something a deal too good to pass up. Unfortunately, these are not normal times, but...

    What should I be paying

    I listed an 8lb jug of H4350 (not here) for $300 and got flamed for price gouging even though I pointed out the same item had multiple listings on GB that had bid up to $500. To be fair, I only listed a cash price because site rules required it and clearly stated that my preference was an even...

    Sticky about Shipping and FTF Transfers

    Call or visit the preferred NC FFL and ask if that is legal (pretty sure it is but safer to check) and will they do it. Firearm goes in then out of his bound book as soon as the background check completes. Not completely familiar with NC laws but if he has a NC CWP, it might get to skip the...

    Hello from Pickens County

    Thanks for the invite. I looked into Belton but ended up joining a club in Elberton GA for the 400 yard range and monthly 600 & 1,000 yard matches, even though I haven't made it to any matches yet. Besides hunting and handloading, I'm getting an itch for distance. I just got a .338LM but have a...

    Hello from Pickens County

    Howdy all. I recognize a few of you from other sites. I've been in SC for a few years now. I'm mostly into hunting and handloading. I'm looking forward to hearing what's new and perhaps shooting with some of you fine folks.

    What gun groups

    I just hit the site and in the Take Action section it has a petition to encourage votes on the bills currently languishing for Constitutional Carry - for the 2017 session.

    Thinking about moving to your state...

    :lol: Another NESer here with the house on the market and will be headed to upstate SC as soon as we get a buyer and a close date. I've lived with winter all my life but my wife is a tropical girl and this winter was the snowflake that caused the avalanche. I'm in NH but only barely - about 1...
