I discoverd what a lot of you already know, target shooting is fun; and expensive.

I am looking at a pair of old Berretas; one is a Model 76 in very nice shape and the other is also a Berreta but a Model 72. Before I decide whether to buy I, of course, want to shoot them. So I field stripped them to be sure they were lubed and clean. Fine for the Model 76 but on the Model 72 the take down lever was stiff and once it did move the pistol partially opened and is now locked up and nothing (nothing!) moves. Won't close up and won't slide the rest of the way off the frame. Moved maybe 1/2 inch and that is where it is now stuck. Any ideas and how to get it to open up the rest of the way? I really like this weapon and it is also in very nice shape. Obviously can't take it to a gunsmith if I don't own it yet.

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Up to that time, we had no way to defend ourselves. We have become very proactive in our Constitutional right to defend ourselves. We are active members of the NRA and the Virginia Citizens Defense Leage (VCDL). We have armed ourselves, took Concealed Carry classes, applied for and are awaiting our CCPs. Until those permits arrive, Virginia is an open carry State and we have been exercising our right to do so.

We both, along with our 31 year old son, attended a VCDL Rally yesterday in Richmond. VA. The Rally was held along the roads that Virginia Delegates were travelling on their way to a nearby conference. Traditionally this annual conference has been held at the same venue, that is NOT gun friendly. The message that VCDL was sending to these delegates was that if they do not support gun owners rights, we will not support them at the polls. Unfortunately, our voice went unheeded (just like in Washington, D. C. ) and the delegates voted to held their conference in the same location next year. We members of the VCDL are not discouraged. We will be back, at the same location, next year.

The Patriots -- those who believe in the Constitution and the rights that it affords our citizenry -- must NEVER tire of our efforts to preserve and defend our Constitution. We must remain vigilant -- we must stay informed -- and we must be proactive. If we don't do it, who will? If our Constitutional freedoms are lost, we will have only ourselves to blame. ]]> http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/conservative-wife-and-mom/55-2nd-amendment.html http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/osmosis/54-massachusetts-non-resident-pistol-permits.html Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:31:33 GMT FYI - laws (or rules) have changed recently.

Before September of this year Non residents needed to attend a state approved firearms class, submit fingerprints, photo (passport size), fill out questionere and a check for $100. This for the privilege of carying for 12 months....

Now for the changes:

All of the above except a phot and fingerprints, they do this in Chelsea MA.

So one needs to send the application and $100. I did this in early September for renewal and did not get an appointment for photo and fingerprints until mid October. Once they take your fingerprints and photo you must wait 3-4 weeks for the fingerprints to be run, and permit card to be mailed to you.

So a two month renewal process for a license that is only good for 12 months. Also, the new requirement making all out of state applicants show up for photo and fingerprints in Chelsea has most likely purged at least 50% of applicants due to the inconvenience.

Renewals will also require full fingerprints each year, I was told that "fingerprints change" so you must show up each year.....

Massachusetts residents - Wake up! These changes are occurring behind closed doors and become law without notice or imput. ]]> osmosis http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/osmosis/54-massachusetts-non-resident-pistol-permits.html http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/harydana/53-biltmore-whos-who-scam.html Thu, 15 Oct 2009 05:22:53 GMT Is Biltmore Who's Who a scam or Rip-Off?

Well, I think we need to seriously look at that prospect in a couple of forms.
Peaceful revolution: Absolutely the best option! We need a revolution at the polls. People need to get off of their asses and go to the polls in record numbers and vote out their current representatives, congressional and senate, and break the cycle of career politicians who are not accountable to their constituents but are beholden to the myriad of lobbyists who financially influence their votes for bills that are not in the slightest way what is best for the country. DO NOT RE-ELECT ANYONE! This is the only way the people can take back their government and country peacefully. If the current politicians see that they're being held accountable then they will do what they always do; back down, regroup and then come back later with Plan B which is still not what is best for America.
Armed revolution: Absolutely the LAST and least desirable solution, but it should not be discounted unless you want to hand the country over to an avowed socialist and like minded politicians who will continue to use their political position to consolidate their power and stay in control indefinitely. Make no mistake about what the "health care" and "cap and trade" bills are all about. It's about control and power. Both are methods to consolidate their power, raise taxes and take more control over our lives with less and less regard for what is best for the country.
This country was born through revolution that overthrew a tyrannical government that excessively taxed it's subjects without any regard for how it impacted their lives, like we have now. Yes, chaos would be the order of the day and this would definitely be the ultimate option, but perhaps that is what it is going to take to take back the America we grew up in and love and the country that many of us have fought for and served in the military to help
preserve our way of life -- the envy of the rest of the free world.
Does it have warts? Sure! Is it perfect? No! But why else do people from all over the world strive to get here legally or illegally?
Because they know that it is, or was, the land of opportunity. How many people are trying to sneak into Russia, China, Cuba or
Venezuela?
So, perhaps the fate of our country will rest in the hands of people who are willing to fight, literally fight, for our freedom. If you think that this is not a pretty picture you're right. But would you rather see that or watch our country become more and more socialist with less and less regard for individual rights, Sheeple who
just go along with whatever the government wants to do; the path of least resistance. When you get 51% of the population that depends on the government for either entitlements or a job for a living, then you can expect that the government will have taken over and the people have lost.
Let's choose option #1, get involved and peacefully take our country back! ]]> OUTTAHERE http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/outtahere/48-revolution.html http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/elitetacticalsolutionsllc/46-ky-ccdw-ohio-ccw-instructor.html Tue, 21 Jul 2009 01:34:38 GMT Hello,

Just wanted to put in my two cents' worth on the CPX-1.

It's worthless, unless your idea of a good personal carry is a single-action pistol. To wit: each and every time you fire this "weapon," you have to turn the safety back to "FIRE," since every time you fire it, the safety jumps back to "SAFE."

This pattern persisted after contacting the manufacturer, and receiving a new and improved safety. It was easy enough to install, and it seemed to be stiffer to operate, which I had hoped would translate into staying where I put it. Lo and behold, the problem persists, and I'm at a loss as to my next step. ]]> Lorito http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/lorito/45-sccy-cpx-1-waste-money-time.html http://www.usacarry.com/forums/blogs/tristateccw/44-pistol-poker-night.html Mon, 06 Jul 2009 01:41:45 GMT Starting in July 2009 we are starting pistol poker 50% pay out.
