    I have this old...

    Spanish Mauser that has been sporterized. I want to do something with it. I would like to make it a 308win. I like the stock that is on it but it has some sort of waxy stuff in it to make it fit the contours of the barrel/action. I don't mind the 8mm cartridge but it just isn't very...

    Just never know...RKBA...

    Interesting afternoon at the store. All my work was done and I started surfing the web on Friday. An employee of mine came into my office to ask a question and states "ew, I like that 1911 who is the maker?". At this point I am a bit floored. He is an openly gay male who describes himself...

    Idea for long range accuracy?????

    I have shot 3-d bow competitions for a long time. I have recently started trying to reach out there a bit with my rifle. Buying a new rifle has helped feed the need ;). Today I shot my usual at 300 yards....3.75" spread CTC (average, some better some worse). I have nothing to compare this...

    .357mag/.44 mag question...

    How much more "kick" can I expect out of a 7.5" SRH .44mag compared to a 6" GP100 .357? I have never shot a .44mag and contemplating getting one for hunting/plinking (can you really call it plinking with a .44 mag). Any input is appreciated. Beentown My local pusher has a NIB SRH .480 for...

    Ruger and the .22lr

    Something I don't get and maybe someone here can shed some light for me. Ruger is a company that IMHO knows how to do the .22 long rifle. The thing that has me stumped is why there is no full size DA 22lr revolver:confused: I currently have one of there semi pistols and 10/22. Sure would...

    Looking to purchase a CZ 82. Is there a certain distributor that provides better units? If I have a choice myself what should I look for? It is a 9x18 Marakov for $219 hand pick. Good price? Anything else that you would recommend over it? Any thing else? Thanks in advance, Beentown

    Looking for....

    Hey all, I need some help. I am looking for a Beretta 92 compact or centurion. Couple of things: Does Taurus make something similar? The compacts do take the same mags as a full size 92fs? Anyone else make a clone (a good clone:p)? Thanks in advance, Beentown

    Taurus...I know, I know...but

    Any experience with New Taurus .22lr revolvers such as the 94? I need another long barrel .22 and can't afford the huge price demanded of the 617. I wonder why Ruger doesn't make a GP100 equivalent .22lr. Beentown

    1911 decision time...help

    OK guys I need input. Both pistols are NIB. In this corner...Kimber Custom II $729 versus Springfield Loaded $799 In my mind the pro for the Kimber is the price. The Springfield pro is that I like the company (already have a M1A1, XD9, and XDM9). This will be my first 1911 so I really don't...

    Funny moments...

    I was doing some dry fire exercises tonight to work on trigger control on my XD. Well after a few hundred I took down the pistol just to see how clean it was when my wife started chuckling at me...I didn't even notice but I had the slide close to my nose smelling the best perfume on the market...

    First time ND'er...Glad I followed the other rules...

    Had my first ND today. I was shooting in my back 40 range and had some family out there with me. I was shooting a Bersa .380 one handed and someone started moving past the firing line beside me. I put my left hand on their arm to stop them while trying to decock the hammer with the safety...

    Davidsons???

    Heres a Noob question. I have seen Ruger GP100's with a 5" barrel on GB. It is not on Rugers website. They say they are Davidson's exclusive. What is Davidsons? It seems they are a supplier. Can a local shop order through them? I would really like to have one because I have a 4" and love...
