Hello! Welcome to the board! Feel free to let us know how you found us and what you’re interested in? Locations are cool maybe a home range?

I mainly shoot USPSA after some time taking some Tactical classes like CQB but found training was cheaper.

Hey Everyone,

After lurking for a few weeks, decided to finally register for an account. Located in South OC and grew up in a family that had firearms but hardly ever took them out of the safe. Never really got into it myself until a couple years ago when I finally had my own family that I wanted to be able to protect.
Currently on the hunt for something I can add to my CCW rotation as a pocket carry option.
 
Happily stumbled on this after seeing the absolute mess that is CalGuns.net.

This site is much user friendly and most important, actually WORKS.

I'm been into firearms for the past 20 years, and love putting rounds down range as often as possible.

I have 20+ firearms and am always rotating a few in or out but my current favs are my Staccato XC, Canik TTI, and my EPC-9.

I look forward to getting to learn a lot from you all.
 
Hello All,

I'm also here after reading a post on Reddit and the frustration of Calguns!

See you around!
 
Hey everyone. I'm Experimentalist and.... I have a firearms problem. ;)

I've been on CalGuns for a couple decades I would guess.

Keeping fingers crossed CalGuns recovers. Sadly it's not getting better, so hoping to find other horizons here.

I enjoy a variety of firearm related pursuits, from long range marksmanship to personal defense interests.

I'm in the East San Francisco Bay.
 
Another cigar smokin’, whiskey drinking’, gun shooting’ CGN refugee. I shoot CO, LO, and PCC divisions in USPSA (I totally suck at it); member of Coyote Point, Richmond, and Santa Clara Valley Rifle Club (BOD member).

My current rotation is:
JP GMR-15
SA Prodigy
Sig P226 Black Stainless
Sig P320 frankengun
Bergara B14r 22lr
 
I’d been wondering why calguns site was not loading so frequently. Finally noticed the Reddit post about this site. Thanks for this modern alternative. (y)
 
Howdy everyone, I'm Blake The Redneck. Some of you may already know me, I've currently got a motherless 🐐in' mullet and I like milsurps.

I'm a Gen Z Milsurp collector, and I've been active on CalGuns for a few years now buying, trading, and selling. I'm also an lurker on the CAguns reddit forum. Pretty hyped to see a modern alternative to Calguns taking shape, especially with all the outages, dated software, and even more dated hardware of Calguns.

Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful it's still around in any capacity today. I cant tell you the amount of times that i've ended up on forum posts that are damn near as old as I am and are still able to provide useful information about small arms and CA gun laws (especially when I was first starting out, navigating these f*cking laws was a total nightmare). Although its practical use as a medium through which to trade is definitely lacking by modern standards.

Welcome!

I think it's been needed for awhile. As much as some people won't want to move on, the loss of iTrader was the final blow.

Hope you like what's here! If you have any questions, feel free to ask. The community here is pretty helpful.
 
Hello. Just found this site through reddit. Im using it to hopefully sell my M1 Garand. I am getting into the precision shooting world and a lot of that has to do with Texas Plinking on youtube along with many other long distance shooting channels. I also like sporting clays so im either doing that in the winter or shooting long range throughout the year. This website is awesome and i appreciate the simplicity of it.
 
Hey everyone!

Another calguns refugee here. Glad to see this website actually loads!! Go figure. See you at the range guys!

Hi All,

Name is Wolkenflieger which means 'Cloud Flyer' in German. I'm an artist/musician/game-dev and somewhat new to the gun world. I'm also on Reddit under the same name. 'Cloud Flyer' was inspired by a space game I've been playing since 2015 called 'Star Citizen'. It's alpha (still) but I'm an avid tester/player. The guns in that game are incredibly detailed, just like everything else.

I have a CZ SP-01 (newly Cajunized) and a CZ Shadow 2 Compact which I'm selling in the classified section. I'm also about to enter the world of .22 LR pistols.

I'm also a Tesla fan (2024 Model 3 Performance) and space nerd.

I've never been on the old site, and already bought a gun through the classified ads on this site. Good experience so far.

Well-met!

New to the site and came from Calguns but only because I needed to start posting. This is a smoother experience so great job!
 
Hey everyone, from the LA area and just found out about forum on Reddit. Looking forward to see this site grow and great alternative to Calguns.
 
Had been a member before upgrades, all of a sudden I'm "new member". Strange, guess I should tell my wife I've been renewed. Anyway, I have been a lifetime NRA member since the 80's, was a long-time service rifle competitor and attained Master classification. I hated to have to give my rifle to someone else for work so I took classes at Lassen Community college and learned a lot of how -to's. There is still much to learn... I cut my teeth rebuilding Mausers, Arisaka's, Sprinfields, etc. then went to single shot rifles. I have done rolling blocks, martini's and Stevens 22's. Love to make them usable again!
