    The folks there appear to be a very pro-gun group of folks - it seems like a good number of people brings guns to work (leaving them in their cars of course). The work looks real interesting, too. :)

        I admit my prejudice, that was my first thought. I blame watching too many western films in childhood for that. And some contemporary YouTube videos. :)

                        just out of curiosity, how are you leaving your guns in your cars? aren't you worried about it getting stolen? here's it's a crime to leave your gun in a non secure environment (which is why mine is in a secure location at home when i'm not shooting it)

                              Probably Nevada or Montana if I were to guess. I know the state I am in is pretty gun friendly. The problem is convincing the girlfriend to let me drop $5k for a 0.50 rifle.

                                    Then you'd be surprised at how often it's NOT the case. As I've already stated, Texas ain't the most gun-friendly state in the union...

                                      Probably Nevada or Montana if I were to guess. I know the state I am in is pretty gun friendly. The problem is convincing the girlfriend to let me drop $5k for a 0.50 rifle.

                                      What you are aiming for, Barret? In New Jersey you need a gun permit for a slingshot (no joke – it’s a law).

                                        I am actually looking at the Barrett M98B 338 Lapua. But when I recently picked up my 12ga, the store had a Bushmaster 50 there for the same price. Here I need a permit for supressors and automatics. Getting a permit involves getting the county Sheriff's approval (which involves a few checks into your background) and paying your $200 lisence fee for each item. CCW is a seperate permit that isn't nearly as hard to get.

                                          How is a locked car not a secure environment?

                                          because all it takes is 20 seconds to break into one (unless your windows are shatter proof)
