what does FTF mean?

[Bitter Clinger]

tryed to search it and all I could find is that it means first to find. That does not sound right

[Irving]

Face to Face, referring to a Face to Face transaction. People prefer face to face because in order to ship a weapon, you have to work through an FFL which adds on extra cost and unnecessary back ground checks and stuff.

[BigBear]

Could also mean "Failure to Feed" if you're having issues with a handgun/rifle.



I had the hardest time figuring out all the different acronyms and even jargon in the gun culture.

[Circuits]

Also, on occasion, "failure to fire"

Good question Bitter Clinger.

I remember having to ask the meaning of LOTS of acronyms used on this site when I first signed up - and I still see some that I don't understand.

At first I was afraid to ask - too many bad experiences on other forums for showing weakness/ignorance. I soon found that my fears were unwarranted as everyone was happy to share their knowledge with me (as I'm sure you can see is happening with you on this thread).
