    How Much is this M1 Carbine Worth?

    A friend is interested in selling me this re-arsenaled 1945 Inland M1 Carbine. It does not appear to have any import marks. Does anybody know what a fair price might be? Thanks.

    G19 Gen4 - Trigger Creep

    I picked a G19 Gen4 today. I am curious about the trigger, as it has more creep than compared to my Gen3 G19 and G23, which both break fairly crisp after the initial take up, and after reset. The Gen4 has noticeably more travel after the take up but before it breaks. Is this typical off Gen4s...

    Ruger SP101 Reassembly Help

    I'm trying to reassemble my SP101, and after I reinstall the trigger, I cannot pull the trigger, it is locked up. Everything I've read and watched says I should be able to pull the trigger and cycle the action normally at this point. The transfer bar is in the correct location. Any help here...

    Mag Release Sticking - Springfield XDS

    At the range today, my mag release starting sticking all of a sudden, meaning no matter what side the button was depressed from, the button would either stay in on or very slowly return. After examination it appears the right side of the magazine catch is dragging on the adjacent magazine...

    Small Hole on Outside of Barrel Chamber

    While cleaning my Springfield XDs 9mm after its first 120 rounds, I noticed this tiny pit on the outer left side of the chamber. I did not not notice it when I performed the initial field strip and cleaning prior to shooting it for the first time, but it's possible I just missed it. Although...

    Springfield XDs 9mm

    I'm a Glock shooter and fan, always have been and probably will be, but their failure to offer a single stack sub-compact has forced me elsewhere. I've carried a Ruger LC9 on and off for almost 2 years now, and although it carries well, it is one snappy SOB. So I picked up an XDs 9mm Friday...

    Kel Tec Sub2000 - Last Round Failures to Eject

    My Sub2000 has less than 500 rds thru it, and I have experienced several failures to eject, all on the final round of the magazine. Sometimes the failures are stove pipe in nature, and other times the case is jammed against the breech at some random angle. It has happened with at least 4...

    Blue Gun Question

    I'm thinking about buying a Glock 19 Blue Gun mostly to practice drawing, and also as a trainer for new shooters. I see that you can by them "weighted" so that they weigh the same as the real thing. My question is, does that weight also account for ammo in a loaded magazine, and if so, is it...

    How To Attach Chart to Rubber Stock

    I would like to attach a small laminated ballistics chart to the side of the Hogue overmolded rubber stock on my 10/22. I tried duct tape which didn't hold at all. I don't want to use any glue that will be difficult to remove in the future. Any suggestions?

    Looking for a Handgun Rack

    Can anybody recommend a decent handgun rack for my safe that will hold 6 guns, including some revolvers (one being an Ruger SRH .454 w/ Scope), a full size 1911, and a compact 1911? As low profile as possible, I really like the Greystone Rack linked below except for the turn around time...

    Kel Tec Sub2000 Questions

    I just bought one of these, and have not shot it yet, but noticed a few things I'm curious about. First, when folding the gun in half, the detent in the buttstock doesn't perfectly align with the track in the front sight base that it locks into. I've read that canted front sight bases aren't...

    Looking for a Slender Compact Gun Case

    I'm looking for a lockable soft case that is just long and wide enough for my Remington 870 with an 18.5" barrel. All the soft cases I'm aware of are wide enough to accommodate scopes, optics, and accessories, and have handles. I'm looking for something as short, compact, and low profile as...

    Transporting Shotgun in Vehicle

    I just purchased a new SUV, and discovered an excellent hiding spot for my Remington 870. I live in Virginia but very close to MD and WV that I travel to often. I also travel into DC occasionally. My question pertains to the legality of transporting the shotgun out of state. I plan to keep it in...

    Kel Tec Sub2000 - $495

    To my surprise, a LGS has one on the shelf, a G17 model, and I've been wanting one for a while, but he wants $495, that sounds too high. What do you guys think?

    LC9 - Long Firing Pin

    I received a replacement slide from Ruger last week, and while inspecting it I noticed the firing pin is noticeably longer than the older one. It's so much longer that pushing forward on the exposed rear of the firing pin without depressing the firing pin block allows the tip of the pin to...

    Ammo Can Gaskets & Oil

    This may not be the best place for this, if not my apologies. Anyway, I store all my ammo in ammo cans. When I first started doing this, I would apply some Breakfree CLP to the rubber (neoprene?) seal gaskets with a q-tip, because I once read somewhere that this could help increase their...
