Anybody know what brand of .357 revolver Mr. Proenneke had? It's shown in "The Frozen North" DVD* and appears to be a single action with a six or six and a half inch barrel. He carried it in an old military issue "tanker" holster. The last inch or so sticking out. (Too bad Rob Le...

Slightly OT, but in perusing Cjiappa's site, they list an 1892 Trapper as "44WRM" caliber. 44 Mag or 44-40 or what? 44Winchester Rimfire Magnum?

Here's who they got for Mattie Ross Personally, I think Glen Cambell was the weakest, worst actor they could have found to play a toughman in a western, and I think he tainted the film.

Gunsmith, the law only applies to centerfire ammo. It mentions nothing about rimfire ammo. See below. "3004.5. (a) Nonlead centerfire rifle and pistol ammunition, as determined by the commission, shall be required when taking big game with rifle or pistol, as defined by Section 350 of the depa...

If you lock any firearms, unloaded in the trunk, you'll be okay.

Same rules apply as everywhere else. Ship to FFL. The CLFC law doesn't apply unless you are shipping within the state and are an FFL.

There is no reason to expect the second amendment to grand unrestricted permission to keep and bear arms. Nobody is going to be allowed to carry a loaded belt fed machine gun or an RPG into the mall on Saturday afternoon. It, however, would be most helpful during the Christmas shopping season! :D
