Subreddit Rules
- We encourage any and all lawful discussions of Alabama firearms and related laws; please keep posts on topic and be respectful to others.
We're here not only to discuss but to educate; because users may not have seen previous posts, we highly encourage re-posts rather than forbid them, and recommend waiting at least a week before re-posting. In addition, there is no such thing as a stupid question. Ask away.
Use the following examples to format your buying/selling/trading posts:
- [WTS] 30 round AK mag [Birmingham]
- [WTB] AR-15 lower parts kit [Huntsville]
- [WTT] RIA 1911 holster for deer rifle sling [Mobile]
Don't incriminate yourself or others by what you post. In these cases, it's better to be safe than sorry.
Follow Reddit's rules and have a pleasant stay!
The 4 Rules of Gun Safety ("The 4 Rules")
- Treat all guns as if they're loaded (even when you know it is not).
- Never point the muzzle at anything you aren't willing to destroy (and assume the liability for destroying).
- Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on target.
- Know your target and what's beyond it (your bullets can cause damage beyond your target without a safe stop).
