    Gun Control in masquerade

    Compromising, capitulating, and being apathetic in dealing with the anti-gunners is the same approach the Republican Party has taken with the leftists, for many decades, to the point of obscuring everything that defines America's greatness. A rather powerful free Classifieds in Utah (affiliated...

    SNIPER/LONG RANGE/Hunting Rifle

    For the sake of this thread... here are MY definitions. LONG RANGE is a distance well beyond 350 yards. A SNIPER RIFLE is any rifle which is designed, accurized, and specifically setup for the purpose of making a head shot on the target, animal or human. A HUNTING RIFLE weighs less than 10...

    LONG RANGE

    As I understand it, every major rifle manufacturer makes a Long Range rifle, i.e. Remington makes the Sendero... QUESTIONS: How do I find out what the other manufacturers offer in off-the-shelf long range rifles? Which is the better platform to build on, a 700 SPS or a Sendero...

    Nikon BDC reticle?

    QUESTION: DOES ANYONE KNOW THE HISTORY ON THIS? When Nikon first ran their new BDC reticle... the circles were large and thick... Later... Nikon started making the reticle smaller and finer... I recently heard there were "refurbished" models available? But I can't find anything on the...

    7400 Remington problem

    Remington 7400 (30-06) When mine is fired... the recoil releases the magazine latch. (Happens to all five mags) The retension spring seems a little weak and there is no stronger spring available from Remington. Anyone else had this problem? How can it be fixed? Thanks for your help...

    I really like this 3" revolver I just bought... I'd like to get parts for it. Does anybody carry parts for the High Standard, Sentinel Mark IV, 22 Magnum/22LR, two cylinder combo? (Fixed sights) Is there a spring replacement kit available? Does anybody make a rubber grip for this gun...

    Quick change barrel for the TC Encore?

    Newby to the Encore system... My OPINION: It is a multiple-step-pain-in-the-butt to change a barrel out on the Encore... not to mention the "screwing" around with the screws getting bunged up or lost, etc. Shotguns have had quick-change forearms and breakdown hook-ups for going on a couple...

    Sights for Ruger SRH??

    I need advice on the best sighting system and way to sight my revolver for elk hunting. Recoil from my Ruger Super Redhawk recently broke my cheap NcStar red dot. It wasn't the best... but I already owned it. :rolleyes: I tried going back to the factory open sights, but I cannot get it...

    Ruger SRH

    I recently acquired a .44 mag in the Super redhawk and posted a question here on TFL... However, I decided I wanted a 454 so I traded for one... It's been given trigger work and the SA is absolutely wonderful!! The DA is also very smooth but the trigger pull is still stiffer than I'd like...

    Double, Single or DAO?

    I have had confusion with this, so I looked it up on Wikipedia... and if I've got it right; "Single Action" is when two actions are required to cock AND fire a revolver. "Double action" is when a single action is required to cock AND fire a revolver. "Double action ONLY" is when the revolver...

    Grizzly gun

    I have a Super Redhawk I picked up for a song... 44 Magnum with 8 3/8" barrel, I think. Can I reasonably use this for a reliable Grizzly gun while on the elk hunt? And, can I shoot elk effectively with this caliber out to a maximum of 150 meters? I would appreciate your input...

    Tikka T3 Ringmounts

    Does anyone know where to get ringmounts for this rifle? I don't like the Optilock system which costs about 30% of the cost of the rifle... and I don't want bases... I would prefer to use the integral grooves and ringmounts which sets the scope lower. The aluminum rings that come with the...

    Help with 460 S&W

    Help! I have taken a cursory look at the reloading data for the 44 mag v the 454 and velocities being matched, the only difference seems to be about 10+ grains of bullet... then I checked the 460 and the speed is really up there... :eek: And so, I imagine, is the recoil. :rolleyes: duh...

    Tikka T3 lite .300 WinMag

    I am looking at this rifle for elk hunting... I have heard they are especially accurate... (Sub - MOA) Does MOA mean inside the 1 inch circle? Or is just cutting the line considered MOA? I'd really like to hit a dime every time at 100 meters. Can the Tikka T3 Lite .300 WinMag produce...

    Be aware

    The NRA just published this... It pertains only to Washington, DC... but it will set a Federal and, therefore, a national precedent. It removes several "infringements" on private gun ownership. And greatly strengthens and rejuvinates the Second Amendment of the US Constitution. With 248...
