Tourist shooting range near grapevine?

I'm going on a work trip this weekend to grapevine and want to go to a range. I know a bunch about firearms but I've never shot. Any recommendations for ranges near grapevine that aren't tourist traps and are good for beginners?

TexanArmory.com is still updated!

Hey there,

It's been awhile since I've checked in on the texas side but seems like you have some good options with https://texasarmsexchange.com .. I'm still updating texanarmory.com with all fixes and patches but just curious what do you think of texasguntrader so far? It seems like they've largely rebounded from the security hack or people just continue to deal with the issues there.

I'm just dropping in as we have some modern platforms and looking to see how texas can get the word out. Also, would you guys be interested in more classes or training of that sort with different instructors?

The other community I've been building up is up to 42k members so the software is good and battle tested. So I'm curious what you guys would need to make life better.

Onyx Arms wants to supply weapons to domestic terrorists

Onyx Arms in Schertz wants to supply weapons and funding to domestic terrorists.

Onyx is well known in the cloner community for selling retro AR parts. I found this comment from Onyx Arms on an Instagram post discussing the story of a US Army soldier who was arrested for making terroristic threats against the Jewish community in Louisiana.

As you can see in the picture, the owner of Onyx Arms is blatantly calling for financial donations for this sick individual and even goes as far as to say that they want to give him weapons to go kill innocent civilians. Truly disgusting behavior. Do not support this business with your money.

The original source of this screenshot is the atlas.news3 Instagram account where Onyx posted his comment.

Stripped Screw

What started off as simple maintenance (Oiling up my edc) and replacing the battery on my dead optic ended pretty funny . I stripped one of the screws but ultimately was able to get the optic off (literally)

TX Carry Compass... forum?

Well, yeah. I'm working on it. The idea is having a fast and simple forum. It's being built from scratch, so there is no data at all. For now, the accounts are separate from the main app. Go check it out and share your feedback: https://txcarrycompass.forum/

If you don't know what TX Carry Compass is, go to txcarrycompass.app It's basically a replacement for texas3006 and its available for Android, iOS, and the web.

Buying a handgun through private sale — how worried should I be about it being stolen?

Hey everyone, first-time private sale buyer here. I found a decent deal on a firearm through a private seller and I’m seriously considering it, but one thing is making me hesitate — what if the gun has a stolen history? The seller has the original case, manuals, and accessories, which to me feels like a good sign that it’s legitimately theirs — but I know that’s not exactly foolproof.

Is there a reliable way to run the serial number before buying to check if it’s reported stolen?

Do most of you bother checking, or do you just trust the seller?

Have any of you unknowingly bought a stolen firearm and had to deal with the fallout? What happened?

Is this even a common problem or am I overthinking it?

I want to do this the right way and not end up holding something that causes me legal headaches down the road. Any advice or personal experience is appreciated. Thanks.
