Black duck armory?

Has anyone had any slide work done at Black Duck Armory in Findlay? I’m looking to have my P10’s slide cut and would prefer dropping off and picking it up.

Building a handgun at 18?

Although I cannot buy or sell a handgun under 21, could I buy parts and build one? I’m not sure if a frame counts as a handgun so please let me know

Struggling on where to sell

Have a few that are collecting dust and really struggling with how to sell them without grabbing my ankles.

Sig p938 Legion, P227 FDE, and Sig Scorpion 1911 5.11 special edition. Pawn/gun shops will give me like $400 for all 3 combined. Gun broker fees suck. Is there any good way?

CCW on school grounds

If you are a CCW holder, does OH law permit you to carry on school grounds? I was under the impression you cannot and the firearm needs to be in your car.

Staccato in NEO

What gun store (if any) in the greater Cleveland area stocks Staccatos?

Also, do any of the ranges, if any rent them?

Meat shoots and gun raffles

Hi everyone - I have a question. Back in IL, where I grew up, some of the VFW halls had what they called a meat shoot. Basically you pay to shoot against 9 other guys, and the person who's shot hits closet to the center of the target wins their choice of a meat cut (turkey, bacon, ground beef, pork loin, etc). Thry had 10 targets set up so everyone shot at the same time, at their own target. This is done with shotguns (typically 12 or 20 gauge) and is a nice little fundraiser for them, plus a way to be social and interact on weekends.

Is there anywhere in Ohio that has anything similar?

Also, what's the best way to keep updated on gun raffles that occur?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Who has the best ammo prices in the northeast?

Hi everyone. I moved here a few months ago, and have been shooting a bit more regularly since then. I'm running low on 9mm and need to restock. Do any local places have particularly good prices? Or is everyone about the same? Is any place known for gouging, or other shitty practices?

This is in Northeast Ohio. So, Summit and the neighboring counties.

Buckeye Lake Armory lives again!

Howdy,

Some of y'all knew about Buckeye Lake Armory and how it closed it's doors recently. Happy to say it's reopening in the same location under the ownership of a fella and his wife. I'm going to try to get them on to reddit when I can.

They're going to keep the low transfer fees, are working on a new website, and will be posting more details on the Facebook page to give more info on when they expect to open.

A soft open is projected sometime in November. It's primarly going to be an AR and custom build store but I'd like to hear your input on what you'd like to see on the shelves. Even if they don't have it during the soft open if enough people ask for something, and actually buy it, they'll do their best to keep it in or will absolutely order it in for you.

Give me the list and I'll pass it along and come see the owners when it opens!

Not sure how to send the links without the post being deleted but I'll figure it out.

Thank you kindly,
OGA

Conceal carrying in a car

So I just want to know without a CCW license you can conceal carry in your car as long as it’s on your person? I conceal carry in a cross body bag and I want to see if it’s legal for me to carry it while driving. Online it says a few contradictory things so I want to clarify if how I’m doing it is legal or not.

Shops near Toledo that pay the most reasonable prices for used guns?

I’m looking to liquidate a number of guns and I’d like to get as much for them as possible. I really only want to sell to an FFL/Shop to avoid the hassle and risk of selling to an individual. What shops within an hour drive of Toledo pay the most reasonable amount for used guns?

19 year old Carry.

Hello,

This has been said before but I had a little more to ask. I am looking to carry a handgun that would be gifted to me. I am currently 19 years old and living in downtown Cincinnati. When walking around at night to come home from work it can get a little sketchy and I just mainly wanted to feel a little more protective. Is there a good way to go about this or would it be a bad idea? I know I would have to put it in my trunk every time I would drive anywhere, but most of the time I am walking outside if I am ever going anywhere so it wouldn't matter as much. I just wanted to see if anyone had some suggestions or if this is just a bad idea all together. Thanks! (Also wanted to mention I was born and lived my entire life in Kentucky and was raised with guns. )

Need help

New ARP owner

A few days ago I went to range USA to buy a arp. The guy picked me out a 10.5 in barrel (.300 blackout)pistol. After picking out everything I wanted to go with it, they told me that the serial number was not correct in their system. They had to wait for someone who has access to the system for them to correct it. So I had to put the gun in layaway until the issue was corrected. My question is have any of you experienced this? How long does this process usually take, because it’s been about 3 days so far? I appreciate all answers

On a road trip, just wondering if stores like Cabela’s/Bass Pro check ID for residency on magazine purchases? Or is that just for ammo

Recommend a 410 for my son?

My 9 year old loves to go hunting with me, hes very small for his age so he usually just follows me and hangs out in the woods when we go hunting. I'd like to start getting him involved too.

Before anyone says anything, this will not be "his" gun. In the sense that Im a responsible gun owner and it will stay locked up with mine and he will not have access without me. He will also carry during the hunt unloaded and I will have control over his ammunition (I plan to carry the ammo until hes ready to actually fire with my guidance).

Anyways, Im looking for a 410 with a smaller stock. He loves going to the range and shooting with me but the problem is his arms are too small to really have control so he has to sit on my lap and I hold the firearm while he aims and pulls the trigger.

Cheapest NFA/Silencer transfers in NEO, Columbus, or anywhere in Ohio?

I'm getting a silencer direct from a manufacturer and trying to save some dough. They're asking who to Form 3 it to.

I used to have a nice relationship with an extremely small shop local to me who did it almost at their cost with Silencer Shop, but they closed.

What's the cheapest transfer fee you guys know of right now? Bonus if they'll use Silencer Shop as I have unlimited Single Shot trusts (I also have another NFA trust but the Single Shots are so hassle free). Even if they're slow I'm okay with that, I'm more looking for value and reliability that they won't close while awaiting approval.

Northeast Ohio - Akron, Canton, as far west as Sandusky, East to Painesville is preferred, and as far south on 71 to Columbus area if it's really inexpensive, almost anywhere in Ohio if it's practically free. (I know it won't be free but for like $20 I can find an excuse to go to Cincinnati).

Thanks!

ETA: ETA: I already have an eft of my fingerprints, if it makes a difference.

FFL in Dayton Area

Hi Everyone!

I’ll be relocating to the Dayton area for work in the coming months. Any good, reputable FFLs who are friendly and not expensive for transfers? I’m moving from PA and my FFL is amazing, $20 for long guns, $25 for pistols. TIA!

PS: any good shooting ranges that don’t limit speed of shots fired? I’m cool with indoor and outdoor(mostly ever shoot indoors)
