    What's the cheapest .22 LR currently made?

    That's not a semi auto. I'm considering getting a .22 rifle that can shoot cheap .22 ammo that my 10/22 doesn't like. The cheapest I could find is Rossi bolt action for under $150 online, I'm sure there's more out there even less than that, but IDK.

    Getting an itch for .17 Rimfire

    Years ago and even up until last year I had never considered buying anything smaller than .22 because I'm not a competitive shooter and I don't have property infested with varmints. However, I'm always interested in something different and I do appriciate seeing five shots that all touch at 50...

    I'm about done with gunbroker

    Haven't been posting much on this forum as there's not much to say these days thanks to the continued shortages, but I have kept my eyes on gunbroker as that's the only place I'm ever going to find certain, unpopular guns that I plan to buy and also the occasional impulse buy when I get bored...

    Thompson Center and CVA single shot questions

    Since Taurus can't or won't keep up with supply/demand of the revolvers that I want and other stuff on my list isn't available, I'm getting itchy for other guns that interest me and I've long had a single shot pistol on my list. I'm starting to look again, I've nailed down the calibers I'd would...

    S&W I Frame prices?

    Looking to get a .32 I Frame or Colt Police Positive. Doesn't need to be in immaculate condition, just in good condition to shoot, so cosmetics don't matter. I've never considered getting one of these before, but I want another .32 and one that's cool. I've been waiting for very long barrel H&R...

    What else besides AR and AK that uses popular, common mags?

    Apologies if the title is oddly worded, I try to keep titles pithy. Anyway, state I live in is looking at and likely passing a mag capacity law and I am trying to think of what I can buy that I dont already have. I figure the M1 Carbine and Mini 14 would fit the definition. Not interested in...

    Apparently Winchester is getting in on the .22 defense ammo

    Winchester Silvertip .22 LR, a 37 grain segmenting hollow point designed specifically for short barrels. Compared to the solid bullet used in Federal Punch, I think this segmenting bullet may be a good idea considering the Lucky Gunner tests showed that the core of segmenting .22 ammo penetrates...

    Entry level shoulder holsters?

    I'm thinking I'd like to try carrying in a shoulder holster. Key word there is try, it's not something I'm dead set with doing 100% of the time for the rest of my life. As such I'm not looking at spending $100+ on a rig, so I'm looking at the low end of the price range just to get a feel for the...

    What are the most affordable big bore antique cartridge revolvers?

    By big bore I'm talking .41 and up and by antique I mean pre 1900. Asking because Mike Belivue's video today on antique guns for self defense has me thinking and currently the biggest caliber that is affordable would be a .38. No sure how much the Colt 1892's go for now, I remember a few years...

    Magnum caps

    For the first time this weekend I shot a single shot muzzeloading pistol, a Lyman Plains pistol in .54 caliber. The only tin of #11 caps I had was CCI Magnums, so I used it and it worked fine. My question is is there anything wrong with using magnum percussion caps over standard caps? What guns...

    SHOT Show 2022 is next week

    I've generally been unimpressed with the past few SHOT shows, but this is the first one we've had in two years so I'm thinking we're going to see quite a few new products that have been in development for a while. We've already had the .30 Super dropped on us by Federal and S&W, now Springfield...

    What's available for .22 top breaks?

    Excluding the NAA Ranger and H&R 999 Sportsman. Been waiting forever for the Taurus 942 to become available and it's clearly not going to be anytime soon, so I may as well keep my eye out for something else and a top break .22 would be fine so long as it's under $400.

    Smallest "good" .22 Double Action?

    While I like my NAA's and their build quality I do find their function limiting in that to make them more concealable small grips have to be used and their spur triggers are just not nice. I have learned how to shoot with them, can hit 10 inch plates at 50y with the Minimaster, but for up close...

    Where are the Taurus revolvers?

    I buy online, so I can't speak to what LGS have in their displays, but online retailers, if it's a revolver made by Taurus, it's Unobtanium right now. I've been wanting a snub Aluminum frame 942, the 7 shot .357/9mm 692, and lately the Circuit Judge revolver rifle and NONE of them are available...

    Do gun prices seem to be going down?

    I'm starting to see guns that were selling for hundreds more than what they were during normal times start to creep back down to 2019 levels. Is it just me or are others noticing prices on guns normalize?

    Black Powder vs Smokeless velocity for .32 and .38 S&W

    Since the topic involves black powder and BP cartridges are pretty much a reloaders only thing these days, that's why I'm putting the topic here. Also, y'all here in the reloading section are smart fellas who always give me good responses. So, I saw a .38 S&W H&R topbreak for under $150 and it...

    Will Ruger make spare cylinders on request?

    I'm wondering for their single actions if I wanted to buy a second cylinder in a different chambering (say .45 ACP for the .454 Super Blackhawk or .32 S&W Long in the Single Seven) does Ruger do that?

    I love the Lee Auto Disk

    When I got my first powder measure to charge on the press I went with the then new Lee Auto Drum. It was cool to finally be able to throw a charge while I belled the mouth, but it wasn't the most consistent, probably between +/-.15 grains. Fine for anything that I planned to shoot in the Redhawk...

    Ruger 9mm P series prices

    I checked out that green and yellow website because I'm still looking for a P90 (I'll get you, my pity) and wanted to see what the P series in 9mm were going for and I was a bit surprised to see they are going for about $400-425. For the times right now to see well made 9mm's going for such...

    Bullets for .22 rimfire?

    I've been considering getting one of the kits for reloading .22 so I could load blackpowder (seems like the safest powder to use for reloading .22, lol) and the kit comes with a bullet mold, but it's a single cavity basically and IMO not even worth the time to cast and I've zero interest in...
