Would i be able to conceal carry a S&W500?

Im not saying at all that i would do so, i just want to know the legality of conceal carrying one due to its immense power and enormous chance of shooting through the intended recipient and damaging property or even worse harming another civilian.

Locktite or NO?

Ruger American gen 2. I noticed my pic rail was lose on my gun never checked when I first got the gun and put the scope on. Took everything off and 2/4 screws were not even close to tight got everything screwed back and torqued to spec around 25lb on the base I read that’s it recommend not to use LT on base rails if you torque properly. What’s y’all’s opinions should I take it back if and use some LT?

Pistol Braced Carbine, what caliber?

So, been looking into PCC's, mainly in 9mm, but no I am considering a .556 or 300 Black Out. I kind of like 9mm because if the cost of ammo, but I am not opposed to 556. 300 Black out seems gtg also especially if you want to suppress.

I would love to hear from you all that run one or the other of these. Don't be shy about posting pics of you want as well.

Silenced Bumpstock Equipped Short Barreled Rifle

How many people would be interested in seeing a video of how a Silenced Short Barreled Rifle with a Bump Stock does at like a shooting range, you know like Post-Cargill Bumpstock Prohibition being overturned, and all. I mean the goal of the experiment would be to see if a full auto rated silencer would make a bump stock equipped short barreled rifle more controllable, and accurate.

Mossberg Maverick 88 Security vs 590 9-Shot with Heat Shield and Pistol Grip

I would like to get a shotgun with a 18 to 20 onch barrel, to have around the house. I will never upgrade it, barely use it except to take out to practice shooting it and if I ever need for security. The only real difference for me is the extra shells that the 590 holds. Is it really worth the extra $250 for the 590, in my situation, or is it a waste of money for what I'm looking for.

Favorite pair

Out of all my handguns, these are my favorite striker fired and hammer fired 9mm. H&K VP9L with Holosun SCS green, TLR-1 HL, flared magwell, Handleit grips (rough texture for best grip), extended slide release for thumb rest. Tisas Duty DS " with Holosun SCS green, TLR-1 HL, used Prodigy for both the flared magwell (needed some filing here and there to fit) and the Handelit grips. Holster is a Black Scorpion Gear. Mags 17 round and Prodigy 20 round...the 17 capacity are Checkmate, planning on buying a pair of 20 round versions (they are used Staccato 2011) and HK Vp9 20 round).

Is it better to squat or go prone with my AR during a home defense scenario?

Is it better to squat with my AR aiming around the bed or to just lay prone around the bed?

I don’t have a stairwell so it seems like the best idea is to barricade myself in my room and aim the AR around the bed to pop em when they come in without being seen

What are your thoughts on Americans taking up arms to protest against a president and their actions?

I am not for this, I am just curious what you guys think, but I have seen many people online making fun of Americans for their access to guns but not using them to do anything about the current administration over the tariffs and such. Do you believe that things that have happened recently in the USA warrant people using the 2nd amendment for what it was intended for?

Personally I believe it is an overreaction to take up arms, I think certain people on this site are too delusional and out for blood, looking for easy ways to change things.
