I recieved some spare parts from a friend who upgraded his AR. I need to get all of the other parts but I don't have a fortune to spend. I was thinking of combing gun shows for used parts. Any suggestions/tips/retailers to help me build this thing out? I'm not looking to build something...

Anyone know where I can buy .454 (or .451, .457, etc) balls in bulk? Maybe 500 or 1000 boxes.

Assuming that detonation in a real danger, where should I start worring about it in my light loads? I use Unique in my .357 loads behind a 158gr LRN. I've found that I like 5.0 grains. That seems to fill the case about halfway when it's on it's side and covers about half of the flash hole...

Let me make this disclaimer right now - I've never shot a black powder gun before. I'm very familiar with modern firearms, firearm safety, and handloading. I know basically how the BP guns work. I recieved a 1851 colt army .44 pistol made by Pietta for my birthday. It was one of those packs...

I just bought a Marlin 60 .22lr rifle and was wondering if anyone knew of someone who makes a peep sight for this rifle.

So I've just started reloading for the .357. I'm looking to work up to a good light target load. I'm starting with 5.5 grains of Unique behind a 158 LRN. My question is how much should this charge fill the case? I'm looking at alittle less than half full. Does that sound right? I'm weighing...

I live in south Louisiana and a friend of my Stepdad's gave me 200 nickel cased .38 special rounds. The catch: they were in an ammo can in his house while his house was underwater during and after hurricane Katrina. They weren't loose, they were in their boxes and the boxes are in pretty good...

Is there any advantage to using steel dies for straight walled cases? Someone was telling me that carbide dies only have a carbide ring and it can belly the case near the base. Is that true?

Does anyone have any suggestions on a set of grips for a Ruger GP100 to suit a guy with big hands? Most of the reviews I'm reading are saying that they're good for small or medium hands. I think I need some bigger grips!

I'm thinking of buying another SKS for the sole purpose of tricking it out. I'd like to see some pics of SKS's y'all have gussied-up.

What are tech sights? Are they like peep sights? I keep hearing people talk about putting "tech sights" on the SKS, can someone give me a link so I can see what you're talking about?

What is the difference (if any) between Monarch 7.62x39 and Wolf 7.62x39?

I went to the range today and my friend shot his 30-06 and gave me the brass. It's 60 once fired, boxer primed, 30-06 millitary brass. They are not cracked or mangled (altough I'm gonna double check to make sure). I've got the boxes they came in and I can take pics of them and the headstamp if...

What the real difference between single and double based powders? Someone told me that single based powders are corrosive. Is that true? Does one burn cleaner then the other?

How accurate is Wolf ammo? I use it in my SKS and it seems to go all over the place. If it's not the Wolf ammo, what should I try next to juice all the accuracy I can get out of my SKS? P.S. I shoot iron sights at a 10" gong at 100 yards.

I've got it down to these two revolvers. The Ruger GP100 with a 6" barrel or the Taurus 608 with the 8 3/8" barrel. In my neck of the woods, these guns are within $10 of each other new. I'm looking for a pure target revolver, never to be carried (that's whan my Makarov is for). I want a long...

I'm looking at getting the Bianchi Professional 100 holster for my Makarov. Anyone use this holster and had any feedback before I drop $45 on it?

What powder would you reccomend to use in a short barreled (3") pistols? I'm looking to make target loads for my Makarov and I'm kinda confused as to weather I'd want to use a fast burning powder or a slow burn. Does anyone have any load data for IMR powder in a mak?

What kind of powder do you use in you 9x18? I would guess that a fast burning powder would be the best - but then again, what do I know? I'm going to reload for cheap range trips, so I don't need anything too hot. Just some target ammo. Any suggestions?

I was wondering if anyone had any advice on a good aeresol gun lube.
