August 20, 2021, Biden just signed executive order banning russian ammo, for the poisoning of Nalvany!!! WE are getting punished. Just bought a case of 7.62x39 Tula before prices go thru the roof. New sanctions imposed today under the CBW Act include: 1) Restrictions on the permanent imports...

Fellow 45 ACP enthusiasts, it has always surprised me how very few 45 ACP shooters that I encounter at the range or the store seem to know about the 45 Super and 450 SMC. These two rounds are higher pressure (32,000 psi) but identical in size to a regular 45 ACP round, and can therefore be shot...

I have read and seen videos exalting the virtues of motor oil as very efficient, long lasting gun lube that is resistant to heat and fouling. What are your views on this? What would be the benefits/cons of using motor oil as gun lube (besides the obvious: cheaper cost). And WHICH motor oil...

Anybody has experience with Minuteman Ammo? Do you recommend it?

My 7.62x39 AR (by Atheris rifle) is great and I am happy with it, but the only issue is that I start having light primer strikes after roughly 200 rds. I installed an "enhanced" firing pin in it so that it could deal with harder russian ammo primers. I purchased (but have not installed yet) a...

The only reason I do not own a Beretta is because all my other pistols with a safety are such that the safety is taken "off" when the thumb lever is down and it is engaged when it is up. I do not like the idea of having a pistol with a different mode of operation. But I see that the...

Since carry guns and phones can be more or less in the same price category, I thought it would be fun to ask which of the categories in the poll describes you? If you want to mention age group that might be helpful too. I would speculate that younger folks care more about electronics and older...

If you found a maimed animal on the curve, maybe it had been struck by a vehicle and had its hips or bones broken, struggling to move or get up but still alive. Picture this being a deer, elk, hog, or even a coyote or stray dog. What would you do? And what are the legal implications of...

Hello all, I have a very cheap ($30) OWB paddle kydex holster that fits my Glock 21 perfectly, and if I really really push and jam I can make my EAA Witness Polymer Compact fit. The holster would need to be just a smidgen wider at the slide for the Witness to fit perfectly. Is there a way to...

Hey all, when shopping for holsters I can never find the EAA Witness listed as one of the many pistols that the holster is made for. Often CZ-75s are not listed either (the Witness is a modified clone of the CZ 75). Some of my holsters for the Glock 21 work with the Witness, but not all...

I knew nothing about this, there is always something new to learn in the firearms world. I was looking at guns at the gun counter when this fellow and I started a conversation, and he told me about his preference for 45 ACP because the bigger caliber round performs great with snakeshot loads...

I only started considering a firearm for self defense when I turned 40 (I am now mid 50s). I had owned long guns for recreation and hunting before. My fiancee and I were returning to our tent after a soak in one of the remote natural thermal springs in the Colorado South West, when a big black...

According to the Army, these are their personal weapons: About the Army: weapons The AR-15 is not there, because although it looks similar to the M4, it is not the same and everybody knows that it is not capable fully automatic fire. But the "weapon of war" in their list? The Remington 700...

See here: CNN: weekend mass shootings CNN is going out of its way to report every shooting incident in the country as if it were a mass shooting. It seems as if they are trying to create the idea that an epidemic of "mass shootings" is afoot. And I am worried for our rights. I don't know what...

Hello, I am thinking about building an AR rifle (barrel over 16" length) in 5.56. Would it make sense to start off with an AR pistol lower such as this: Palmetto Shockwave Pistol Lower, - No Magazine for flexibility in case I'd like to turn it into a pistol in the future? What would be the...

With the shortages of late, ammo is hard to find. 7.62x39 is no exception, but although I have been able to find the 122gr from time to time, it is IMPOSSIBLE to find the Tula (or any other) 154 gr SP. Does anybody know if they have been discontinued? Or is this (hopefully) just a temporary...

My two EAA Witness (Tanfoglio) pistols have a thumb safety that can be engaged when the hammer is down, which completely locks the pistol. I like this configuration for AIWB carry as I think there is no conceivable scenario in this universe or any other parallel ones in which I could blow my...

Do you know what AR stock this is? (brand, model...) I'd like to buy one if I can find it. Thanks

A few weeks ago I asked in this forum the following question: What AR parts to hold as spares in case not available? After the mess that just happened here in my neck of the woods, the President called for the banning of "assault weapons" 3/23: President Joe Biden on Colorado shooting: We can...
