Got a new B/P revolver and am running into a brick wall trying to find #10 percussion caps.

I am looking at a Taylor's brand 1858 Remington Steel 5.5" .44. I am not familiar with them and am curious about their quality. Any thoughts appreciated.

My brother-in-law got this revolver from his father. The barrel is marked 32-20 ctg. i can not see any S&W logos on it. I have also never seen the the style of cylinder lock that is on the crane. It has all the looks of an early Smith & Wesson. It does have "Made in USA" stamped on the right...

I bought this gun from a guy that had no clue what it is. I think it is an 1861 Navy Sheriff by Pietta. It is .36 caliber. Am I correct?

Finally got around to shooting my AR-15 pistol yesterday. My gosh what a hand cannon! I did manage one dead on bullseye shot. That one was from a rest at about 35 yards. The rest of the rounds made about a 3" group. Not bad for firing small artillery that close to you face. Dang this thing is loud!

I have been reading about using the Loctite 380 for gun sights. Is this a viable option over drilling and tapping holes?

Is anyone familiar with one of these shooting tables? I like the looks. Wondering how sturdy they are. I am a big guy (over 6 feet at a little over 300 lbs,). I have an on property shooting range so it won't get moved much once I get the overhead cover built.

Anyone buy one of the Mod 10's without barrels thay J&G Sales has? I'm thinking about it as I have a 4" mod 10 barrel laying around.

Saw this posted on Facebook. Anyone hear about this? Bob Hess June 1 at 2:07 PM · For all of you out buying ammo? The two pictures are a recent ammo purchase at a Walmart. After purchasing the ammo it was noticed that the neck was cracked on one of the shell casings. So every round was...

My RIA 206 came with the wood grips on it but included another set of grips with it. I put the other grips on and what a difference. I liked the change so much, I ordered a Hogue Monogrip for my Redhawk. I love wood grips, but I should have done this a long time ago. They both fit my hand so...

I did a couple of AR-15 80% lowers in the raw recently. Followed the directions by scrubbing with a sotchbrite and detergent. Followed with a good rinse, then a good wash with 91% isopropyl alcohol. Let dry and applied the blackening with a foam brush. I am not very pleased with the final...

I have been thinking about my Christmas present that I get myself every year. "What about an AR-15 pistol in 7.62x39?" I ask myself. "Well, why not?" I answered. Who makes a reasonably priced complete upper? I can only spend about $450 on myself this year. I already have an 80% lower that...

Thoughts on this scope? I have a few Simmons scopes. Only one has ever given me any problems. The crosshairs wouldn't stay put. I just put this scope on my AR. Haven't had a chance to sight it in yet.

I belong to an MG car forum and the subject of owning and carrying guns came up. I am really surprised at the number of negative comments coming from people in Australia. I just would have thought that they would be a little more pro personal freedom thinking. I used to think when I was younger...

I am thinking about a RIA M206. Just looking for a small revolver to carry while working around my 10 acres.

Friend of mine gave this all metal Colt SAA replica today. MGC-Made in Japan. I read some say they were movie prop guns from the 1950's. Say a couple on the internet that sold for around $150. Seems hard to believe it's worth much but you never know.

Has anyone used a 3/32" end mill to cut the rails on a 4140 steel frame? I have done some milling over the years on my 3 in 1 mill/drill/lathe but never with this small of an endmill. HSS with flood cooling? Carbide dry? Or is a key way cutter the best way to go? My equipment is all manual.

Just got an email this morning from Surplus Ammo. They are moving from Washington state to Montana. No specific reason given. Hmmm?

First day I had several failures to fire. The slide would close, but not enough to push up the loaded chamber indicator and the gun would not fire. Rack the slide and fire the next round. Put the previous failed round back in and no fire. Is the chamber cut a little short or the case a little...

I just received my new Ruger 10/22. The magazine latch wouldn't work and the bolt catch didn't work. I pulled the action out of the stock and discovered that the pin that holds the latch in was missing. E-mailed Ruger about the problem Friday evening and got a response yesterday that a new pin...
