    BoBro Mount: Need advice Extracting a Broken Screw

    I have a BoBro Aimpoint 30mm ring mount that I'm using on my X95. The base is held on by two fairly large Torx screws. I wanted to flip the base to put the QD lever on the opposite side so I didn't scrape my knuckles when racking the charging handle. Apparently, they use red Locktite on those...

    Does a law have to have a valid reason?

    Does a US law have to have a valid reason and effect to be legal? Can something legally (constitutionally?) be against the law just because some legislators feel uncomfortable with it? Can the government outlaw red cars because they are provocative and may cause someone to speed? What is the...

    Double action(DAO), 22LR, threaded barrel: Does it exist?

    I'm looking for a double action only, 22LR handgun that I can mount a suppressor on. I cant think of such a thing. Is there something out there? I love my Taurus 94 22LR revolver, but can't mount a suppressor on it. Looking for a semi auto DAO equivalent that I can shoot quietly.

    So apparently Vista purchased the ammunition plant (plants?) in November and supposedly was hiring a some of the laid off employees back. Has anyone heard anything about them being back in production? Will they still be making Remington brand ammo or other of Vista's products (Federal for...

    FL Congressman says ATF planning to ban pistol braces?

    Truth or ploy for votes in an election year? They did it with bump stocks and nobody gave a damn because they didn't own a bump stock or thought they were a stupid toy. Think they are going to go after pistol braces now...

    Manurhin MR37 'Sniper' Revolver

    Ian from Forgotten Weapons just released a video on this interesting revolver. It's a 357 Magnum used by France's elite GIGN police force starting in the early 70's. They apparently had some strict requirements for this gun including accuracy and durability for a very high round count. They had...

    What is your testing process for a carry gun?

    I searched the forum and surprisingly couldn't find a thread on this, probably my bad search-fu. So you buy a cool new (or new to you) revolver for concealed carry. What is your process for testing the gun and what does it need to accomplish for you trust it enough to bet your life on it?

    What handguns have grip safeties?

    I know there are folks who like grip safeties and those who hate them. There are plenty of threads discussing that. Let's not discuss preferences here please. Let's keep this thread a technical discussion. A list of all handguns that have grip safeties, how they work mechanically and any...

    Hammer fired polymer guns, what's out there?

    I just ordered a CZ P-07 this weekend and will hopefully get it in hand tomorrow or Wednesday. For those who don't know, it's a Glock 19 sized hammer fired polymer handgun. That's kind of an unusual configuration isn't it? What other hammer fired polymer guns are out there? If you have one...

    Who here has a red dot mounted on your carry gun?

    I've searched the web and found good info from Aaron Cowan of Sage Dynamics, and others. I've seen some posts here, but most are a few years old and this is a rapidly evolving area right now since MRDS are still new technology for handguns. I'm considering carrying a Holosun 507C on a CZ P10C...

    Picked up a cool new toy at the LGS yesterday (Maxim 9 content)

    After 1 year on waiting for my NFA paperwork to clear, I got a call from my LGS this week. Very long story short, I was shooting my Maxim 9 in my back yard after work last night. :D The gun is a lot of fun. It's my first experience with a centerfire suppressor and it was not as quiet as I...

    NC: Legislation SB S90 to change CCL process from “SHALL ISSUE” to “MAY ISSUE”

    Please contact your reps about this one. You might have a cool sheriff now, but imagine what happens when you get a bad one elected and he decided no CCLs unless you're one of his cronies https://www.grnc.org/defend-your-rights/recent-grnc-alerts/1068-senate-republicans-to-gut-concealed-carry

    WWII .38 Revolvers how did they reload them?

    To commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day, I'm planning a range session using guns of D-Day. I have a Garand, M1 Carbine, 1911A1, No4 Enfield, Kar98 and a S&W British Service Revolver chambered in 38/200 (38 S&W). I'm planning to use them authentically, loading the rifles from clips...

    Who loves 20" barreled AR Rifles?

    You don't see many 20" AR builds anymore. Have any of you guys bought or built any 20" ARs lately? There have been some great sales on AR parts this Fall, so I decided to build a 20" barreled lightweight AR rifle with modern features (Quality parts, good optics for both close in and distance...

    Calc trajectory for a bullet different than zero'd?

    I'd like to find a common point blank zero of about 2" out to about 200y, for both Mk262 and M193 out of a 16" barrel. Is it possible to do this with one zero? How does one go about calculating something like this? Here's the bullet data: Magtech CBC 5.56 77gr Sierra Matchking: 2630fps...

    Modernizing the A2 style AR15

    My only 20" AR15s I currently have are an A1 type and an A2 type, both with fixed carry handles. I was thinking a while back that it would be nice to mount a light and RDS to one of these for HD use taking advantage of the added velocity of the longer barrel. The 1/7 twist A2 makes the most...
