General Discussion / Re: Hurry up with those permits Chief
« on: August 30, 2022, 05:38:18 PM »
The State-Certified or National Rifle Association Firearm Instructors are responsible for determining the
course of fire to be performed by the applicant that will allow the Instructor to certify that the applicant is
proficient in the handling and use of the firearm involved. At the minimum, the proficiency course of fire
conducted by Firearm Instructors should consist of the following, with a passing score of 75% or greater.


the instructor determines the course of fire
so does this mean the applicant needs to do all 3 of the courses of fire?  or just 1 selected by the instructor?

Strategies and Tactics / How not to shoot a revolver

From Hickok45, I always have to laugh when watching this.

Logan on the radio this morning.

1) People will need an NRA certified class, which most handgun owners already have. So hunters ed won't fly.
2) Shooting requirement is highly probable and NRA instructors can dictate it and sign off on it
3) He emphasizes the liability of using the gun again.
4) No word on pending apps
5) They are close to finalizing everything, and again expects to sign off at end of Aug at the latest. He stated again that he will be signing CCWs.

All the above is verbal and can change later. Lets see what's on paper and what the legislature does.

It's my understanding that Hawaii does not honor NRA pistol classes taken out of state?  I took a class in Texas years ago.

I will write my Senators and send a letter to all the Senators. I know what the response will be from Hawaii, but I need to reach out to the other members, because I personally feel that I have zero representation in Hawaii.

Anyone ever take apart an old golf ball?  SCOTUS has removed the cover, now the rubber band winding will start to unravel.

Flapp_Jackson and drck1000, thanks for the ideas. I have an old Lohman sight vice but don't want to use it for solvents and such. Maybe an adaptation of a smaller bench vise would be the ticket. Thanks for your input.

I have revolvers, auto's, and long guns. Right now I would like to get something for the pistola's so I don't have to use both hands. I can clamp the guns in my shop vice with plastic inserts but it isn't very convenient to use. Something I can use on the bench would be best. Mahalo

I bought a Tracker safe last year from Lowes with (BI) delivery to the front door included in the price. I had a buddy help me get it in the house. Looks like they still offer this service. took about 1 month to get the safe.

Got my Bargain GI 1911 from Buds. It's made by a Turkish company named Tisas. Since there were so many good reviews I ordered one and after inspecting it I can say it was probably worth it, though i wont know  for sure until my next range day.

I have one of these on order from Bud's. My son has one and he is very happy with it.  :thumbsup:
