Kind of a range report: I am visiting the fine state of PA this month and brought my NIB Bushmaster Gas Piston Carbine with me. I took it to a public range today. The mid-range targets at the range laser at 47 meters. Okay, close enough to a 50 meter zero. I should have thoroughly cleaned...

Well, I've wanted a gas piston 5.56 for over a year now - came close to buying the FN F2000 (didn't like all of the parts), had the money on a Sig 556 but at the last minute traded to the Bushmaster. It is going to be about two weeks before I get to shoot it. Anybody that owns one have...

There are so many holster makers out there that I know nothing about so I thought I would seek some advice - I prefer leather, with thumb break, carried outside on a belt - what do you suggest and why?

Got a duffle bag stolen on Christmas Eve. Inside was my hunters safety card. How do I get this replaced? I am a resident of KS but my hunters safety card was received in CO.

This is my vent: Christmas Eve I made a stop at the Holiday Inn just outside of Columbus Ohio because I wanted to take a hot shower and sleep in a bed. The hotel has signs posted at all entrances that state something to the effect absolutely no firearms allowed in the building. Left a rifle...

Picked up a 32 round extended magazine. Why? I don't really know but I have it now. I have fired 96 rounds out of the magazine (kind of fun). The magazine moves back and forth somewhat but has not had a problem functioning. Has anybody had any type of malfunction using an extended magazine...

Today, I visited Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell located in Philadelphia, PA. Both locations had airport type walk through metal detectors and x-ray machines for removeable items. I did not expect this. I had taken SEPTA(rail) into the city. If I had a pistol on me I would not have...

I bought a deer cart this year as I am getting older and will be deer hunting alone this year. The cart is in an L shape with the longer side being the pull side. How should I put a deer on the cart? Antlers up on the long side (I am concerned about my safety with this) or upside down on the...

Lets say you have a 22LR zeroed dead center at 100 yards on level ground. If you took that same zeroed rifle and placed a target exactly 100 yards downhill or 100 yards uphill what effect would this have on the point of impact? I had heard that shooting downhill requires holding below normal...

Found this coin today going through some junk. Back in the late 80s myself and two friends were shooting a tube fed, semi-auto, 22LR, Marlin with open sights. We wrapped up with an agreement that whoever could hit the penny (about 20 yards) would win a free pitcher of beer courtesy of the...

It was a time of war, you were going on an expedition, and you might have to defend a farm? and throw in a couple of zombies. I would take a lever action 357 with a tang sight for longer distances. My ammo would consist of 38 wadcutters (quiet for small game), some 357 158 grain hollow points...

I've always used a rod, brush, jag, patch to clean my rifle bores but I am thinking about buying a boresnake. It looks like a bore snake would be considerably faster. I have a few questions before I buy: How do you use solvents with the boresnake? How do you use lubricants with the boresnake...

I live in a different state but will be in PA for awhile (through deer season) for work in the Valley Forge area. My out of state deer license includes small game. Squirrel season starts tomorrow, rabbit follows a week later. I am looking for your tips on public hunting areas, hunting...

Was looking a a CZ Mannlicher that had a tangent rear sight. The rear sight easily adjusts with a slide from 25 meters to 200 meters in 25 meter increments. I had never seen these sights on a 22 LR before. I am really interested in this 22 LR because of the sights. Can anybody attest to the...

Went to a rifle range today. Some guy lit the trash can on fire to get rid of all of the paper jammed in the can. Another guy yelled at him for doing it because there could be live rounds in the trash. I know I have seen live rounds in the trash before. The guy that started the fire...
