This works wonders on burglars and in-laws too.

I can't tell AR's apart. Is that a S&W sport 2?

Here is a recent acquisition I couldn't resist. Browning white gold medallion in .30-06. When I saw the walnut on this one and learned that the dealer just takes the guns out for photos and doesn't have them on display for people to handle and potentially ding, I was hooked.

POssibly bad news. I asked arthas about a gun section and this was the reply. He is the owner, host, and administrator of talkblade.

I have to think about that. I'd never been too much involved in guns, and know little about them.

I also need to find out if I could have some issue here in Italy running a gun forum, as the legislation on guns and also "talk about guns" is very very different here.

Well, if it's a no - go, perhaps we can do like you mentioned earlier, Terry, and use an existing forum. I don't have a problem with that. It doesn't have to be dedicated to guns, I'd just like an outlet to discuss another one of my keen interests.

You might start a thread in off topic, just a suggestion.

So is sharperdeals, Boots, but it has a section for gun talk, as I pointed out in the OP.

My late friend Denny had more rifles that anyone I've known ,
his one room with his computer had all 4 walls lined bumper-to-bumper with long guns.
His prize was a mint 1890's Mauser 7mm rotary magazine with Beautiful dark blue-black oily patina bluing

twobit, the issue isn't that this is knife forum, it is that we need clarification on Italian laws.
