My father-in-law has given me a gift, that he wants to make sure is kept in the family. A National Postal Meter M1 Carbine. I also was given six 30 round mags, 1000 rounds of reloaded ammo, and about 1000 rounds of new ammo. A replacement trigger group, a replacement bolt stop pin, and...

I picked this up at the gunshow in Dothan AL on December 3rd and have just not got around to posting pics. I have always wanted a 27-2, or a 28, figuring the prices of the 27s would make me buy the 28. Well, at this show, I found the this 27 marked down from $750 to $650!!! I had already...

I stopped at a small town gun store yesterday on a work trip, and lo and behold, they had this very reasonably priced compared to some of the re-finished beat up, dinged high priced Colt Detective Specials I have seen at gunshows... Original finish, locked up tight, trigger was good, Colt...

I picked this up Thursday and have not fired it yet, but I am thinking about removing the spike bayonet. I seem to recall reading that removing the bayonet could mess up the sighting on the rifle though? Anyone have a M44 with the bayonet removed? How does it shoot?

I went to the gun store to look at this: Mosin Nagant M44. While at the counter to pay for the M44 I noticed the Model 19-2. The GS owner said, "This pistol must have had an action job. It has the smoothest trigger I have ever felt." He was right. The action is butter smooth. Needless to...

I have a Savage 99E .308 I put a (cheap) scope on to replace some Bubba-ed Williams peep sights. When I first got the rifle, I bought some cheap ammo, Monarch .308 steel case. It fired fine in the 99, but would not extract. I had some Federal, some Winchester, and some Remington, all old, but...

Okay, I am conflicted. I have always wanted a Model 70, and even though this is a new one, it feels terrific. 30-06 Featherweight or the Sporter version. Both feel great in my hands. Either one is $669. Trouble is this gun store is having a sale on Tikka T3 Hunters, guaranteed 1 MOA accuracy...

A few weeks ago, I found this one in .308; Savage Model 99E. My first. It has a P in the oval in front of the lever, which I am told means 1963. Today, at a gunshow in Dothan Al I found this old re-blue-ed Savage Model 99 in 30-30. I didn't REALLY want a 30-30, but it had $249 on it, and the...

I went to the gunshow today with the hope of getting a Blackhawk convertible .357/9mm. I did not find a convertible, but did find a new model Blackhawk. I also found a sweet barely fired Colt Cobra that I really wanted, but the guy would not bargain unless I had cash, and all I had was my...

First, a big "Thank You, Sir" to STAINZ for steering me to Ranch Products. I called, they gave me another number to call, and I then sent them a check for $35 for 100 .45 ACP moon clips. Got them about ten days later. I took them to the range today, along with some Blazer Brass .45 ACP I found...

At my request, I got cash for an early Father's Day instead of the usual after shave, shirt, and/or tools. So on Saturday, I headed to Montgomery AL to the big gunshow at the Renaissance Hotel and Convention Center. I was looking for a Ruger SP101 with Crimson Trace laser grips, preferably...

I've been looking for a Classic Model 1917 or a Classic Model 27 and after a call to the Bass Pro Shops in Prattville, AL, the gun-counter man said he had a Model 1917 for $649! I remained calm and said, "Did you say $649? And that is a Smith & Wesson Model 1917? With the Lanyard ring?" Yep...

I found this at my parent's house. I bouhgt it in the Mid-1980s (I think) and when I went off to college, my brother and cousin raided my closet and I STILL have not got back all my firearms, holsters, etc... I thought the Nylon was gone for good, but it was in a seldom used closet full of old...
