I recently started looking around for a bullpup but I found they were either nearly impossible to find or very expensive. Then I discovered that High Tower Armory makes a bullpup chassis for the Hi-Point 995TS carbine. You take the action and barrel out of the Hi-Point stock and swap it over...
There is a very brief article in the Baton Rouge Business Report saying that a national firearms retailer is opening a store and range at Millerville and I-12. It did not mention the store name though. Does anyone know more details...
Are any of you handy and do some carpentry? My Black and Decker circular saw is an early 80's model and I have used the heck out of it through the years. It struggled to cut the last time I used it so I am looking to finally replace it. So what is the best circular saw to get? I have been...

I know that steel shot is required for duck hunting, but is it required for dove hunting? I have not gone dove hunting in 5 or 6 years so I wanted to check to see what the current law is.
I am looking for a small emergency radio to use in case of power outages and hurricanes. Can anyone suggest a good one to get? I saw the Eaton FR360 at Lowes for $50 but the reviews I read on-line were not so good. I did read some good reviews of the Midland ER102 radio.
Has anyone taken their concealed carry permit class at Bass Pro in Denham Springs? If so, how was it? I am thinking about getting my permit and I live a few miles away from Bass Pro so I am considering taking the class there.
I stopped by the Wal-Mart in Denham Springs and I saw they have a DPMS AR-15 for $587. I do not know anything about this DPMS brand rifle, but that isn't a bad price for a basic AR.

Where in the Baton Rouge area can I buy a Hipoint carbine? I know that Hipoints are considered crap by most people so very few gun store carry them. The carbines get very good reviews. I am looking for the newer model with the tactical stock.
I am thinking about getting a Taurus 24/7 OSS .40. Do any of you have one? If so, what do you think of them? From what I have read on-line, they are good guns.
