      Range USA - a cautionary tale

      The short version of this story is: after getting ATF approval for my first suppressor (over 370 days!) the dealer (Range USA in Carmel) refused to hand it over because of my immigration status (which they knew all along). I eventually got the can after Silencer Shop intervened but it was not...

      Recommend a body shop in Indy...

      ...that's not Tom Wood Collision Center (I have nothing against them, they just don't seem to want my business). Someone backed into my Macan and damaged the bumper. Nothing too horrible but I really want it looking like new. Any recommendations? Preferably North side of Indy. Any I should stay...

      If you shoot a rifle well...

      ...then I have a question for you. Specifically about rifles with traditional, semi pistol grip stocks: what part of you braces the rifle from moving backwards as you pull the trigger? I mean, when you pull the trigger, do you use the pistol grip like a pistol, i.e. pull the rifle back into you...

      AR-15 switching apertures

      OK, stupid question time...how do I switch to the big aperture? It kind of looks like I'm just supposed to roll it forward, but it really doesn't want to move. Is there some other way or do I just need to push harder?

      Vortex Spitfire turret directions - explain this!

      How would you interpret these directions? I was sighting in this scope today, and my shots were landing to the left of the point of aim. So I looked at the markings. Unfortunately, the windage adjustment arrow is perpendicular to the way the windage turret turns, so it doesn't tell you...

      Accuracy - where do you start?

      I'm close to reloading my first batch of ammo. I'm doing .223 for my AR-15 first to get the hang of the basics because the components are cheap and easy to get. But ultimately I'm more interested in reloading for old military rifles (mostly bolt actions, but also the M1 Garand). Now that I...

      Help with RCBS primer pocket tool!

      I posted recently about getting started in reloading, and got lots of helpful replies (thanks!). Now I have run into my first big problem! I have some .223 brass that I want to use to start learning the basics. But I couldn't seat primers in them. After a little investigation, I realized there...

      Availability of reloading stuff

      I planned to get started in reloading a few rifle calibers and bought an RCBS press kit. But now that I am actually getting ready to start, it turns out that I can't find any of the consumable stuff I need! I initially thought (foolishly) that things like bullets were interchangeable as long as...

      LTCH application time limit - 90 days or 365 days?

      I started the application process to renew my LTCH around 5 months ago. I got the initial electronic fingerprinting done immediately. But then I didn't follow up. Now when go the ISP portal, it says you only have 90 days to complete the process from when you apply. But when I log in, it says you...

      Possible shooting incident - report this to police or not?

      Last night I saw a car being towed from my apartment complex with what looked like bullet holes in the windshield and side window. There were no police around and I'm pretty sure they weren't around before I saw it either. I didn't hear any gunshots and I spoke to my neighbors who weren't aware...

      Lease issue

      I wonder if anyone can explain this to me - I rent an apartment and my first 12 month lease ends at the end of this month. The lease has a clause that says if either me or the landlord don't want to renew, we have to notify the other party 45 days before the end of the lease (so, mid September)...

      Stolen car stuff (long shot)

      It's unlikely I know, but I might as well put it out there in case someone seems my stuff for sale anywhere: someone broke into my car on Sunday night and stole 4 wheels, a jack, and a pair of jack stands. So if you hear of any of the following items for sale, please drop me a PM: * 17" Sport...

      DNA gathering

      I was under the impression that in Indiana, if a person is arrested for a felony then DNA is automatically collected - is that correct? If so, what does it mean when a motion is filed in court like this: I saw that in a case on public.courts.in.gov. The person was arrested for a felony, then...

      Handun security

      I have to travel for work and stay in a hotel for a few days (regularly). I can't carry in work so I have to leave the gun somewhere during office hours. I don't have a safe or anything for the car yet, but I plan on getting something that I can anchor with a security cable. The hotel doesn't...

      Credit card fraud question

      I was just reading the thread about the stolen cc recently, and lo and behold, this morning I discovered a pending charge of over $4500 on my card that I didn't make! I ended up reporting it as fraud and the card is cancelled, but thinking about it afterwards, something doesn't make sense to...

      Glock 43 won't feed hollow points

      I have a Glock 43 that I've put a few hundred rounds of FMJ through with no issues. Today I tried HP ammo for the first time (Federal Hydrashock). The first round of a full mag kept getting stuck on the feed ramp when I racked the slide. Another yank on the slide fixed it every time. It happened...

      private pilot training - recommendation?

      I've found a handful of posts about flying here and it seems there are a few pilots among us. I've always been interested in learning to fly and getting a license and I think I'm ready to get started. But I see around 4 or 5 places in the Indianapolis area that do this, and I don't know how to...

      Jury duty

      I just received a post card in the mail that says "YOU ARE ORDERED TO CALL (317) 327-8992 WITHIN THE NEXT 14 DAYS TO QUALIFY FOR JURY SERVICE...". It goes on to make threats about being found in contempt of court etc. I am not a US citizen so I obviously don't qualify for this but it's not clear...

      Monon trail hours

      I recently heard that the rules for the Monon trail were changed so you can now use it any time. Can anyone confirm that? A while back (maybe 2 years ago) I got some hassle from the police for being on the Monon trail near Broad Ripple around 10pm. They said I couldn't be there after 9 so I've...

      bubbles

      Does anyone happen to know why there are huge quantities of foamy bubbles falling from the sky in downtown Indy, near the capitol? It's been going on for a while.
