[QUOTE=bassplayrr]My company sells the Streamlight M3 tactical light; how do you like yours? Have you seen the new M6? The thing has a built in laser pointer/aimer, it's pretty sweet.

-Chris[/QUOTE

the M6 came out a month after I got the M3 taclight. I wish I have gotten the M6. They are not cheap either. I like these taclights cause it leaves one hand free instead of holding another flashlight. Only thing I didnt like is the battery cover. Everytime I open it Im afraid I would break it. I dont want to leave those li-ion batteries in and cause a leak.

im locked and loaded for 21st

Where are you located?

Some good Gun Shops are:

Canyon Sports in Martinez

The Traders in San Leandro

Reeds Gun Shop in San Jose

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here's the CA firearms rulebook:

http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/forms/pdf/cfl.pdf

Prior to purchasing a firearm, you need a Basic Firearm Safety Certificate, which you have to take a test for, at a Gun Shop.

Here's the Handgun Safety Certificate Manual:

http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/forms/pdf/hscman.pdf

and the study guide:

http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/forms/pdf/hscsg.pdf

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You must purchase one of two types of gun locks at the time you purchase a gun:

One is a cable attached to a padlock, and the other is a device that mounts to your trigger guard.

The only exemption from having to buy one of these locks when you buy a gun, is if you already bought a lock at that Gun Shop within the last 30 days.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Once you purchase a handgun (not sure if it applies to long guns), the dealer has to hold on to it for 10 days while the D.O.J. conducts a backround check on you.

You had better not be a convicted felon, and even certain types of misdemeanors can prohibit you being able to legally own a firearm.

Any other info you might need is right here:

http://caag.state.ca.us/firearms/

For additional info on concealed carry, go here:

http://packing.org

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you have any other questions, reply here or PM me.

leo and I are still working on the times, but it looks like we'll start with a BBQ around 12 or 1, then shoot over at the range. The Picnic areas are walking distance from the range.

I put a post about this up in Meetings & Events.

PM me if you're going, and I will add your name to the roster in the above thread.

Can't believe I missed this thread. I'm down to go. I have a few buddies that might come and bring their guns. I've been shooting my SIG P226 in .40 alot lately. I love that pistol.

I was there 10:00 to about 1:45, only saw one other WRX. A WRB wagon that I have seen at the range before. Did any of you guys go. On the way down 9 I didn't see any wrx's going up.

dude I got there at like 2-3PM, was late because I was trying to wake my friend (Arrkash) up, then I took the long way there (was supposed to take 92-85-9-35), the whole way on Skyline from 92 to 9, but the ride was fun!

I stayed until range closing, shot about 3 boxes of ammo, and took off.

Yeah next time I'll organize the meet better...
