    Artillery Shell Info/help needed!

    A friend gave me this the other day... When he first handed it to me I went 'hlly cow' (well sort of) then he said don't worry and took it back and pulled the casing off to show there was no 'powder' in it and was thus 'safe'... the next two things I noticed were that the primer has not been...

    Scope vs Iron sights theory....

    I need some clarrification here... I've recently started shooting a rifle a good bit. This is a 10/22 standard factory barrel and trigger group with high scope that I can still see the iron sites through the rings. My targets at both 50 & 100 yards are 9" paper plates with a quarter size...

    Ruger 10/22 Stock and Scope Question

    I picked up a Ruger 10/22 in stainless steel yesterday (1995 mnf). It strangly has was I've discovered is called an International stock. The wood is one piece that goes all the way to the end of the barrel with a stainless cap at the end. I don't want this stock, am going to replace it. So...

    Locked the Pat McManus thread?

    But let a debate on Battle Star Galatica and their plastic guns and which is the best 'star ship' x wing or what ever go on for pages? I was looking forward in the Pat McManus thread to when we got to his sister... 'the Troll'. I think Pat even talked about guns sometime... was going to go...

    I guess there is some kind of rule on this, didn't really understand because there are a lot of other 'lame' discusions on this list. Anyway... three weeks ago in my town (Greenville, SC) we had one major weather event. Ice storm to beat all. I'm talking trees falling on people, cars...

    What is Parkerized?

    This has been on my mind for a while, but always forget to ask. What exactly is Parkerized? Is it only on Military weapons and how is it different from the standard blued version?

    Springfield 1911 trigger problem

    I, out of a whim, bought a Springfield 1911 A1 about 2 months ago... this was the millitary parkerized version that had an adjustible sight added. Seemed like a good pistol... then a few weeks ago I had the opportunity to pick up a stainless steel version of the same pistol... here's the...

    good grips for Walther PPK

    I just purchased a Walther (Interarms) PPK in stainless steel. Besides Hogues wood grips (they don't seem to have rubber ones for this model) is there any place that offers good grips for this little pistol. They need to be small to fit my wife's hands.

    I've got a Star model FM in 22 long rifle and it is a jammomatic... is there an ideal brand and type of 22 long that might work better in one of these? It seems that 22 autos are prone to jamming, I've also got a little Berretta 22 but it does a lot better only jams like ever 20 or 30 rounds...

    Compact CC Auto wanted

    I'm needing a small auto for concealed carry. I've pretty much narrowed my choices down to either a Walther PPK or a Sig 232. Since I'm generally a 357/38 guy I'm afeared the 380 is too weak a load for what this pistol is ultimatly intended to do. Is there a good 9mm parabelum pistol of this...
