I'm not all that up on the AR pistol caliber carbines, but I've been into the Ruger PC carbine simply because of its magazine well adapters. I can see the pros/cons to both systems, but I'd like to hear from others which of these two platforms is better. The real interest for me in 9mm carbines...

I was just thinking, if Kel Tec can make the KSG with two loading tubes, why don't they make a dual tube lever action rifle? Think about this: A 20 inch .44 Magnum with two 10 round tube magazines. Not only does it increase capacities, but say you were using a suppressor, you could have subsonic...

What are some good cheap lasers? Originally this thread was about pic rails that could mount onto a Ruger Charger. I found what I was looking for on Amazon, so I'm all set. Now what I need to find is a laser that I can mount onto a pic rail for the Charger. I'm not planning on only using a...

I hit the range today because it was decent out and I wanted to do some shooting. One of the guns I brought was my LCP and the same thing happens every time I shoot an LCP. I'll shoot a few mags worth and I'll be fine, but what happens is about 20 rounds in, I get the shakes. Now, my LCP is the...

About 6 months ago I made a thread asking about various .45 caliber rifles and which was right for me. Thanks to a lot of you guys, the possum especially, we came to the conclusion that .45-70 was not necessary for what I would use it for. Because I own .45 Colt revolvers, there's definitely an...

This here's my list of handguns and rifles that I'm looking at getting in the next few months, I'm just having trouble which order to get them in. Henry .327 Big Boy I've been wanting a .32 rifle for a long time now so I can test .32 H&R Mag reloads using Trail Boss to get subsonic. I plan to...

Gentleman, I'm looking at getting a Ruger Charger either today or this weekend and I want to get all my ducks in a row. The Charger doesn't come with iron sights, so an optic is needed and I prefer it be a scope even though at most I'll probably be shooting this at 50 or 100 yards at most. My...

I was thinking about these two .35 caliber cartridges the other day and I was wondering: in a rifle, does the decent power of .357 Maximum and the versatility of being able to shoot .357 Mag and .38 in it make up for the lower velocities compared to the .35 Whelen? Also, what could one...

This is probably a common question, sorry if I'm bringing it back up. This is sort of going to be a part two question that's been spurred by another thread I made. I won't go into the details of that thread, but the question I have is what firearms or replicas of firearms that use fixed...

By Antique Fireams I mean firearms that are made prior to 1898 that are not chambered for commonly available ammunition. I had the thought a few days ago about how to get around short barrel rifle/shotguns legal definition so I don't have to file paperwork, wait, pay $200 tax stamps and the...

American Tactical has come up with an adapter to fit into AR-15 lowers that will work with Glock 9mm magazine. At first I thought this was cool and that it might give the new Ruger carbine a run, but then I looked at the price and I said no. https://americantactical.us/5864/detail.html Idk...

I'm sure many here already know about this, but I'm just finding out about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2HLmxKbgfc Unlike the .22 LR single shot Lifecard, I actually can see this being a useful defense tool. A bit big for a two shot derringer? Yup, but when you go to the beach and...

I'm not a big advocate of .25 ACP because it clearly has a lot of limitations, but some gun is better than no gun. When it comes to the .25, used guns that have been out of production for a long time appear to be the best options. Two that I've seen that are often highly regarded are the Baby...

I don't do competition or match shooting much, but when I can shrink my groups, I'm a happy man. Years ago I was all about the fastest .22 LR because it was more powerful, but now I'm realizing that standard velocity is difficult to beat in the accuracy department. I understand that subsonic...

I've been watching auctions on .22 revolvers for over a month and the past week, I've seen two guns sell for over $400 used. Now, you would likely say, "$400 for a used .22 revolvers is pretty good. I'd love to buy a S&W or Ruger for that price." Here's the thing: they weren't Rugers, Smiths...

Back in 2014 I remember seeing Winchester BJHP .40 going for $20/50 rd box. I was tempted to buy a bunch of it back then, but decided to just grab one box. Well, the thoughts come back and I'm having trouble finding the same ammo, at least in the same box. There's plenty of .40 WWB JHP ammo...

I was watching Ian of Forgotten Weapons Q&A video earlier today and one of the questions he got was what .22 Short ammunition could be used today to shoot the S&W Model 1 revolver that was made for black powder .22 Short, which to Ian's knowledge (and my own) is no longer made. Ian's response...

I like revolvers, they're versatile, cool, and reliable. I've been thinking about 9mm revolvers because I think they'd make a good backup gun for a 9mm pistol or just a good concealed carry gun on its own. In thinking about 9mm revolvers, I thought about if they'd be okay shooting .380 from...

I may be getting an offer to work for a manufacturer of 80% AR lowers in an engineering capacity. I'm not a big fan of 80% lowers because I think they're a waste of time and money and I wondering if accepting a potential offer would be worth it. I don't know how popular 80% lowers are and while...
