Gun Law Question

Im currently living out of state temporarily (in NC) and wanted to get a handgun for self defense but I cant buy a gun in the state I’m temporarily residing in. Is there any way I could make this work? If a family member bought the gun in utah and gifted it to me to me when visiting would that be okay? Not sure on the legality so I would appreciate any help!

UT gun exchange bots/scammers

Anybody have the same issue where you are selling something and you'll get messages to buy and then you go to meet up and they suddenly don't exist? Try to call and the line is disconnected or rings forever.

Been happening a bunch lately.

SLC Area Range Partner

I am looking for someone who would like a shooting range partner in the SLC area. Someone who has the time and ammo to shoot once a week or at least twice a month.

I usually go alone because the people I go with live up north, and/or aren’t able to shoot much. I frequently go to Doug’s in Taylorsville or Legacy in West Jordan, but I’m game for other places around the SLC area.

Utah law that prevents govt facilities from banning guns

I can't seem to find the law that prevents govt facilities from banning firearms or some variant of this. I'm curious if this somehow exempts U of U sporting events? I spoke with security from Eccles theater and they advised me that they are legally forbidden from banning weapons, even though apparently promoters can require it. I got surprised by a weapons check at Eccles for a show a couple weeks ago. No warning at all outside the venue or in emails from the venue about the event. Thankfully I wasn't carrying, it would have been a long walk back to the car.

Trying to sell a rifle

I've been trying to sell a Ruger AR, haven't had any success on UGE. I've tried to post on Utah Gun Hub but I get an error anytime i try to add images, and it won't let me post the listing without images. Aside from going to a local gun shop, where else can I sell?

Utah Gun Exchange

Anyone else having issues with the site? Myself and several other users I know can no longer see phone numbers. Even when logged in. They say it’s due to upgraded security to prevent spamming. It has basically made the site worthless to a lot of people. They no longer respond when I ask them to fix it.

10k recce run

https://youtu.be/9ZNV2HKn8ew?feature=shared

Did a video on our experience with the 10k recce run last Saturday. It was a lot of fun, saw a lot, learned a lot. we went over the stages, our gear, build out, how we conditioned, how brutal the trail was, and who went to participate in the event. there will be another one held in June so gear up ladies and gentleman.

Need a gunsmith who's competent with sxs shotguns

I have both a vintage box lock & sidelock that I need some work done on. I've never used a gunsmith before so I wanted to see if anyone has a recommendation. Thanks in advance.

Ps: Does anyone know where I can legally shoot tannerite? I have a ~200lbs pumpkin that I think could be fun to see go kaboom.

New Utah Resident looking for a good place to buy ammo.

Never owned a gun as a civilian. Used the same M9 and M16 for 4 years in the Navy but now that I live in a free state, owning is becoming my new favorite hobby. Now I'm looking to stock up on ammo. Maybe 500 rnds of .223/5.56 and another 1000 of 9mm. Any website / store suggestions?

SBR problem

https://preview.redd.it/szkx5hfqwqwd1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=82dc24946d965bfde938ff78ce53bb17352c4617

I bought this lower and want to register it as an SBR. Last time I chose 'AR-15 pistol,' but that model is incorrect(WEAPON SERIAL NUMBER AND/OR MODEL SHOULD MATCH EXACTLY AS IS STAMPED OR ENGRAVED ON FIREARM.

PLEASE RE-APPLY WITH CORRECTED INFORMATION. PROVIDE THIS DISAPPROVED CONTROL NUMBER IN THE ELECTRONIC

DOCUMENTS TRAIN-STOP OF THE NEW APPLICATION. REFUND REQUESTED.). Could you advise which model I should select? I plan to register it as a 5.56 SBR. Thanks very much.

Stiffler SM19 Complete Slides

SM19 Viper FDE Complete Slide

Shop News

We're working on turning some of our SM19 Stripped Slides into Complete Slides which will be ready to swap onto any G19.3 compatible complete frame whether Glock OEM, PSA, SCT, Geisler, P80, etc and be ready to use.

As for the Prototype Gen 1-3 SM17 Ported Slide we've been working on, we're still doing some finishing work on it to get it range test ready. Once we complete that and it passes the range we'll begin working on setting it up for larger scale production. Still no timeline, but we're making progress.

Thanks to everyone who reached out with questions and support.

Stay 2A everyday.

Where to buy a shotgun used??

Hey all,

I'm currently looking for a cheap (>$500) shotgun to learn how to shoot clays, preferably used from a private seller so I can get a little bit of a better deal. I've been having trouble with Utahgunexchange (I can't see people's phone numbers); does anyone have any alternative suggestions of where I can go to find someone who might have a shotgun for sale?

Thank you all in advance!

Looking for actual gunsmith with lathe skills for custom work.

Can anyone recommend a professional gunsmith that has experience with working on a lathe to reprofile and thread barrels? I have an irreplaceable barrel that I want worked on.

I asked on fb a few years ago for a similar request and was recommended a guy with "good reviews" who turned out to be so bad I had to get the work finished elsewhere... hoping to not repeat that experience.

Utah Multigun Matches

Are there other places than SLPSA and The Farm that hold multi gun matches in Northern Utah that people are aware of? Looking for a few new matches to try out, mostly shoot in Idaho due to them having lots of matches. I tried a bunch of searches but wasn't finding much.

Any shops that specialize in vintage firearms?

Are there any gun shops in Utah that specialize in vintage firearms? I’m not necessarily looking for shops that only carry vintage guns, but does anyone know of shops that carry a good selection of vintage used guns that aren’t absurdly priced? It’s getting stale going into gun stores in my area and seeing nothing but flat top AR platforms and poorly made American made AKs

New to UT

Just moved to Utah about 2 months ago and I’m looking for a group of shooters to train with. I’m slowly accumulating gear and want to work on my marksmanship and skills with like minded people. Hoping to find a good group of people to shoot with.
