We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.
We always hear that THIS election is the most important one, ever. Does anyone remember one where we stood to lose as much as is at stake this election? It occurs to me that each election actually is the most important as it is the only one you can affect "now". It goes back to the saying in...
VCDL has announced that this will be happening at the Virginia State Capitol this weekend. Weather sounds good for the event. Many other states are doing similar things too.

Politicians wish to ignore us and take away our guarantied rights. Number count!
This could go in general discussions, but I would never read it there. So I post the question to the Virginia Forum which I do look at most everyday: Do you carry a flashlight for any "tactical" use and what do you carry? I generally have a cheap but very bright Ultrafire XML-T6 on me for...
Lobby Day is only 12 days away. Come on down to the General Assembly. Let them know we are watching them and remind them that they work for us. Meet hundreds (lets make it thousands this year) of like minded souls. Hear from speakers about the ongoing fight for our rights. Visit YOUR...

I am so tired of this stupidity but "stupid" is the one thing the Antis never run out of. Unlike...
So there I was traveling North on I-81, in Virginia, having briefed my navigator that I must disarm before entering "The People's Republic of Murderland" when suddenly I crossed the State line! Holy Crap! I just committed a felony! Whew! I did not realize I-81 crossed a small portion of West...
Virginia House Bill 139:
Carrying concealed handguns; penalties. Provides that any person who may lawfully possess a firearm in Virginia may carry it hidden from common observation. The bill retains the procedures to obtain a permit that authorizes a person to carry a concealed handgun for...
January 23rd 1855
On this date the greatest firearms genius yet to walk the earth was born. He made his first gun in his father’s shop at age 13. His work spanned 58 years. Many of his designs are still in use and manufacture today with little or no refinement or change. He made...
She likes OWB cross draw and is looking to carry her Ruger P-94. Fitting a lady with a narrow waist and curves has not been easy. Anybody solved this problem? We tried a retention style paddle holster and she could not get a draw angle that allowed her to draw it. I had no issues with the...

I have the occasion to lead a group on a shooting range trip. One prospective shooter has admitted to a long ago felony conviction. I know he cannot purchase firearms. Is he breaking the law to handle one under controlled circumstances at a range? My belief is that this would be a...
