    Ruger Mini-30 with 185 serial number

    No problem with a Mini-14 or Ranch Rifle in Maryland just with mags over 10 rounds.

    Aluminum cased ammo

    I've used it for years in many of my revolvers and semi-auto handguns with never any problem. The instruction manual that came with my Marlin 1894 44MAG lever action says not to use them as their design is incompatible with its loading system.

    Ruger vs S&W Revolvers

    I have my share of both and I do love my S&W N frames. I have one of each that have had to go back for service. A Ruger 3 screw 30 carbine that has locked up twice while shooting it. Great service on that one the 2nd time. The gunsmith called me up to discuss the problem. I have S&W 2" 610 that...

    Baltimore bridge collapses after ship strike

    At least two went into the water. It will be quite awhile until they are pulled out.

    Blazer ammo

    Never had an issue with either the aluminum or brass cases in a number of different calibers. Only firearm I won't use it in is my Marlin 1894 .44 Mag lever action because the manual says not to.

    Range

    I try to get there once a week. If I can't I have a target set up in my garage for my air guns and 22's.

    Question on/for FFL

    When buying my FFL is on Gunbroker's FFL Network. Just click on his name and have never had an issue. When selling I require a signed copy of the FFL. I don't care who sends it because I verify it anyway.

    Georgia Arms Ammunition is up and running

    Glad to see them back. They were my go to ammo resource before the fire for a number of calibers. Unfortunately they still don't any 32 H&R Mag. I spoke to them before the fire and was told it was a problem getting small primers.

    Selling Ammunition

    When I do sell ammo it's always through Gun Broker. It's an easy process. Take a picture of the ammo and post it with the particulars. When it sells and I get payment I just box it up and generate a UPS label. Have to drop it off at a UPS Customer Service Center but the one closest to me is by...

    Buying a gun at Cabelas / Bass Pro

    I just bought a Henry lever action in 22 mag from Bass. The good: Had the best price both locally and online plus I didn't have to pay for shipping or local FFL fee. In addition, they knocked off $20 if I got their credit card. The bad: I was near there when the rifle came in so I went over to...

    1 Ruger Revolver & 1 Ruger semi auto pistol. If you had to pick one of each to survive.

    On a semi-auto that's easy since I only have one: A Mark Ii 678. For a revolver I would go with my .357/9mm Blackhawk.

    Manual safety on semi auto's or not?

    I would never CCW a semi-auto that when you engage the safety it drops the hammer and goes from SA to DA for the 1st shot unless the hammer spur was large enough to reset back to SA. I'm too old (78) to think about it so when I do CCW a semi-auto it's a Glock.
