Just for future reference. I am happy to continue the struggle with my .22 for now but I know that it will not do everything I want it to do in the future. What would I be looking at if I wanted a rifle that could take me between 100-300 yards really easily, stretch out to 600 when I get the...

I've heard about groups that have bought firearms in bulk and provided training for people at the end of which they take home the firearm they trained with. I feel like this is a great way to provide arms to those who otherwise wouldn't be able to get them. I think it's a good thing to provide...

We had a similarly titled thread where a forum member confessed to getting a bunch of gear together and driving a good distance to a competition and wondering when everybody was going to show up before finally driving home. That member found out upon arriving at home they showed up on the wrong...

My little brother was asking. He has a Ruger 10/22 that he's learning basic marksmanship with and has been talking about moving up to another. We were in Gander the other day and he pulled out a .223 box and asked if that would be the next step. What do you guys think? Something low recoil...

I was looking at this and noticed that they included it only on fully automatic versions: http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h6/ottonsure/CZ75FullAuto.jpg Does anybody know if the ATF has made a statement of whether or not this is considered a foregrip? I know putting a vertical foregrip on a...

I have an idea for a firearm accessory that I'd like to have created and see if it's feasible for a market. Obviously I don't want to give away too much but I need to build a type of small vise that uses friction to secure itself to the slide of a pistol securely without using any drilling or...

Saving up for a rifle I'm doing a lot of research on the options that are available out there that aren't an AR-15, just to see what's on the market that nobody ever talks about. Two rifles that really interest me are the Steyr AUG (especially the A3 model) and the HK53. Both of these say that...

We did Christmas a day early at my house. I got a great take this year with gun stuff. My parents ordered me a CZ Kadet Kit from a website called Delta 3 at the beginning of the month. I chose them because they were the only place that listed the item in stock and not back ordered. They state...

No hate, just curiosity. Saw on article in the American Rifleman magazine about the Just Right Carbine in 9mm and .40. My family was talking about and I was curious about what the point was of an AR-15 platform in a pistol caliber. We do have one in .22 because it's so cheap and easy to shoot...

I have a friend that works at an overnight drug/general store chain. He happened to be off one night. On that night, a robber walked in and pulled a gun out of his jacket immediately and pointed it at the head of the clerk working there. He got what he wanted and then shot the clerk in the head...

I want to compete in 3 gun sometime in 2014 and I'll hopefully be getting enough money soon to fund a rifle if not the shotgun as well. I originally had a RRA Competition AR-15 picked out. However, I really love CZ products and I'd like to show that. I know there are plenty of great CZ...

I want one of these for training and since Christmas is coming up it would be a great time. Problem is, I'm having a terrible time finding on! There's one on ebay that I'll consider but I hate bidding without a buy it now option. There's another auction on gunbroker for over $600 right now...

What are some strange malfunctions you've had with your firearm? Hopefully while at a shooting range where it's not life or death, but any good stories. I'll start with mine. * I was at the range with my family and my mom was shooting her Sig P238 and there was a guy shooting next to her with...

I've decided I want to pursue shooting much more heavily than I have been, and part of my goal is to start shooting competition. I'm in the middle of a job hunt now to finance this venture. I've been doing some research and now I'm researching rifles. I've come across a rifle that, on paper...

Just saw this new video for a drop in "bump fire style trigger" by TacCon http://gunssavelives.net/gear/taccon-set-to-release-bump-fire-style-drop-in-trigger-for-ar-15-that-gets-close-to-legal-full-auto/ I always thought the bump fire stocks were cool but they seemed very impractical and...

I decided recently to really get more serious about my shooting. More reading, working out (especially upper body), and a lot more practice. Problem is I can't get to the range very often and I can't afford the ammo. What I can afford is dry fire practice. I did some reading and worked on my...

Sorry about all of the threads in T&T lately, I just have interest in a lot :) I was reading another thread about trigger pull and recoil management as it relates to the 4 steps of learning (unconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, conscious competence, and unconscious competence). The...

What countries are there that are friendly to firearms and their owners? Countries where you can get a permit to carry a weapon (and it's feasible to do so -- not a NY situation) and there aren't too many restrictions. I'm not sure I would consider Australia friendly, for instance, since I'm...

As it was explained to me the other day, a Rossi Ranch Hand is legal because it was built in that configuration as a handgun. You couldn't cut a regular rifle down, and I don't think you could add a full length stock (without NFA of course) but as is it's a handgun. It just got me thinking...

I have a problem dealing with what should be stressful events. Minor things stress me (a totally different conversation) but big events that should be red flags kind of pass me right by. It's happened most recently while driving. I have a learner's permit so I have to drive with somebody of a...
