I'm looking for some load suggestions. My son wants to shoot my Ruger rifle... just because he likes the rifle. It's 30-06 caliber is still a little too much for him to handle. I want to load some "light" load for him to shoot that's still accurate. This will be for paper shooting only out to...

I want to take my M1 Garand on a hog hunt next month. I never shot any hunting ammo in my Garand and just want to make sure it 's okay to shoot it. I was thinking about using Federal Premium 150 grain Power-Shok soft point as I have several boxes of this ammo. BTW. how does military 30-06 ammo...

I have been looking to add another plinker rifle to my collection but not another AR or AK design rifle. Last night I found a used Armalite AR-180B rifle at the local gun shop. It felt like a nice light weight plinking rifle with the convenience of using AR magazines. I know nothing about...

Teach me about corrosive ammo. What component of the cartridge is corrosive? Is it the powder or the primer... or both? Is the corrosive component some how better or offer advantage over the non-corrosive one? Why did some countries manufacture corrosive military ammo as late as 1970's when...

I picked up an older S&W model 36 revolver today from a friend who has had it for more than 25 years. It's a 38 Special caliber with 2" barrel which is what I wanted but I just noticed that the front sight is narrower than the Model 37 Air Weight that I had purchased about 15 years ago. The...

I have a pair of late model S&W model 10 revolvers. One in 3" RB and one in 4" SB. These are my primary CCW and home defense guns right now. Since I want to be able to shoot these revolvers as well as I can I had decided to get a nice trigger job done on them. Few years ago I sent out the 3"...

My brother was going to buy a used 308 Winchester rifle for hunting. He had about $400 to spend on the rifle. Today I found a new Remington SPS in 308 Winchester for about $540. I thought I would give him the difference between the two and have him get the Remington instead. Both my father and...

Anybody know where I can buy virgin (or once fired) Lake City 7.62x51mm brass? I have been looking and asking for a while without success. I had one local guy sell me some but they were obviously reloaded several times. Thank you.

I picked up a Remington 700VS rifle in 223 caliber with the thought of learning to shoot small groups at ranges out to 300 yards (max distance available around here). I need some recommendation for a scope for this rifle. I think I would like something with about 12X power max. I was...

I picked up a used Remington 700VS in .223 this weekend for what I think is a good price. From the looks of it the rifle is typical 700VS model with the heavy 26" barrel, jewelled bolt and black/gray HS Precision stock. It is in very good to excellent condition and barrel is clean and sharp...

I'm liking the smooth trigger on my Glock 17 more than the ribbed one on the 19 model. I would like to try a smooth trigger on my 19 to see if I like it more. Can I just take the trigger and trigger bar assembly from my 17 and put it in to my 19? Are they same or different?

I've heard from guys at the local gun shop that Winchester 94 rifles will be returning to the market by end of this year or next. They said a lot of other previous Winchester rifles and shotguns will return too. Anybody else heard of this too or are they just blowing smoke up my pipe?

Looking for some suggestions on concealed carry holster for my model 10 and 13 3" revolvers. I'm 5' 10" and 180lb. with 34" waist so I'm not a small guy. I would like suggestion for one OWB and one IWB style.

I went by the Pawn Shop near my office today during lunch time. They occasionally have interesting stuff and have gotten good prices if I haggle with them. Today they had a case full of S&W model 10/M-P revolvers... about 20 of them. They were all civilian models as none were marked with PD...

I have one Browning gunsafe dedicated to storing just handguns but I'm running out of space. I have layed shelves on the entire inside of the safe to maximize the space and keep each gun laying up on one of those wire stand that looks like dishstand but it is not very efficient use of space...

Okay, here is the short version... One of my neighbor is a very nice older lady of about 65 who lives alone with her two little dogs. She owns a Walther P-22 which she now wants to keep for self-defense. My wife and I take her shooting once or twice a month so she can get some practice and...

Looking for some grip recommendation for my 3" model 10 with round butt. Want to use the revolver for CCW so I'm looking for a compact grip of rubber or wood with minimal size. I have average size hand but short fingers so I prefere something that does not cover the back strap. I found this...
