    Fun and Games with Laser Sights

    When I was in LE we did a lot of building searches. Mostly alone. I use to carry a Mechanic's inspection mirror in my coat pocket for peaking around corners. OK, now I'm retired and just "play". The last few years I developed a liking for CT Laser sights. Mainly I think they are a great...

    Whats wrong with turtles.

    My wife's mother lives on a little farm in Eastern OK. She has a nice little bass pond on the place. My wife takes an annual road trip every spring and I figured next spring I'd go with her and thin out some of those bass. MIL said I should bring a gun and kill off the turtles on the pond...

    Mosin M91/30 sights---it works

    Most of these I've been around shoot high. Mine when set on the 100 (yard/meter or what ever they use) shot 8 inches high at 100 yards. I want this for CMP Vintage Military Rifle Matches so I want it dead on at 100 @ the 100 mark, cause I'm not into favors if I don't have to. I did some...

    Thoughts on FAFA, LESA, and Commerce Clause

    I was reading the Nullification Topic which got me to thinking, but I didn’t want to hijack the thread so I started this one. The Firearms Freedom Act, or Made in Montana, Wyoming, or whatever state basically says If it’s made in (Montana, Wyoming, etc) and stays in that state, it doesn’t come...

    The Cheapest Gun Around

    I got up early, made coffee, built a fire to take the chill off, waiting for my granddaughter to get up to brighten my day, and started re-reading old post. Reading the "Whats Next" thread on the C&E forum, and about the 8X57 topic got me to thinking, "What is the cheapest rifle out there"...

    Shoot What You Carry

    Just got back from an ICORE match. I shot all stages "TWICE". Once with my Model 64 Smith and six speed loaders, my normal ICORE gun. I figured I don't carry the '64 for SD, I carry a 642, in my pocket, w/out speed loaders. Practice is nice, but nothing like shooting competition on stages...

    CMP Games

    Not bad enough that for the CMP GSM vintage rifle matches you have to have a Garand, Springfield, Vintage Military Bolt gun and Carbine, but now you have to have a Vintage (pre-1950) sniper rifle for the sniper rifle matches which will be included in the CMP Games. Now I have to buy another...

    Sad News

    Except for a few high priced Auction Sales, CMP M1 Carbines are all gone. Rumors out of CMP tell us their wont be any more. Glad I got in on the chance to buy a piece of history while they were still available. They still have Garands but who knows for how long. I screwed up on the...

    Lead Removal Hint

    A while back I was visiting with some BPCR shooters ( who by the way use soft lead). I found out they were using Turpentine to remove lead from their barrels. A short demonstration appeared to show it worked. Yesterday I went through a pretty heavy session of shooting (lead/WW) with my 642...

    Which is the better battle rifle? M16 vs. M1 Carbine

    This is not met to be a debate on the two, but since I got my CMP Underwood Carbine it’s quickly becoming my favorite rifle. My father was a vet of both the South Pacific in WWII and Korea. He loved the Carbine, saying it was a better combat rifle then the M1. He even bragged about killing...

    Mosin Nagant again

    I got my M91/30 (after picking trough a pile for a good barrel) with the intention of shooting Vintage Military Rifle Matches. It took me a while to figure out the stripper clips and while doing that I've only shoot my gongs at 100 & 200. Today I decided to see what it would really do. I...

    Speed loaders for an 870

    Anyone know of a good, fast speed loader for a Rem 870. Shot a shotgun steel match and found out my old Rem 870 police gun can't compete with those fancy FNs with drum mags.

    There will be a 2-gun match at the Spearfish Gun Club, Spearfish SD on Aug. 22nd. Come watch me make a fool of myself, I'm going to shoot an rack grade 1911a1 and CMP as issued M1 Carbine. No doubt I could do better with my Series 70 Gold Cup and White Oak Service rifle, but I bet they wont...

    Lead Removal

    I arrived early for a shotgun/steel match yesterday so decided to visit the rifle range to see who is shooting what. Bunch of guys were shooting BRCRs with lead bullets, I noticed a couple them were using Turpentine Lube to clean their barrels. I asked about it and they gave me a demonstration...
