    New Lever Action Option

    Has anyone ever heard of Taylor's & Co lever actions? They just released a 1892 Huntsman that is designed to be a light weight carbine. I've never heard of them before. Here is an article talking about the new rifle series. Here is their website. Side note: Their 1911's are well priced...

    Springfield Professional

    I am thinking about ordering a really nice 1911 and I've considered Nighthawk, Wilson, Ed Brown, and Les Baer and I just keep coming back to the Springfield Professional for the relative exclusivity of it. Does anyone know what the current pricing and lead time is on these? Last I checked lead...

    Colt Trigger vs S&W trigger

    I inherited a colt Python and a S&W snub nose. The differences in triggers is so vast I have a hard time naming the two guns in the same sentence. Can a competent smith turn the S&W trigger into what the Colt Python trigger is?

    Gun related new years resolutions

    Well, its getting to be that time of year again and this should prompt most of you to start coming up with some that are actually meaningful. Most times I've only got a few days to think of one and I never arrive at a good one in such short time. Mine is to transition my spending to spend less...

    Stress relieving and factory Rem 700 barrel

    I see people on here talk about light barrel and heavy barrel shouldn't shoot that differently when they heat up. That any good stress relieved barrel will shoot well with the thin barrel just heating more rapidly. I am familiar with some metal products manufacturing processes but stress...

    AR15 for 2 year old

    I have a son who is 2 years old. I am considering building another (I've already got one not bare bones) bare bones, no frills PSA AR for him so that when he is old enough he will surely have one. I am thinking of buying it and building it now just in case I cant in the future for lack of...

    War Belt /Tactical Belt

    Post up your "War Belt" setups or "rigs". I am looking into getting something but the market has so many options it's crazy. I currently have a Wilderness Tactical belt with the 5 stitching so its a little more stiff but not polymer lined. I was wondering if this belt would be useable for...

    Springfield Range Officer in 9mm

    Sorry to get you all excited but shouldn't they offer it? I'd take a TRP in 9mm too if they would offer it.

    Looming restrictions and value/price of 1911

    What is everyone's take on how the looming restrictions will affect 1911 prices and values? I'd like to get one, and I could get it now, but I'd rather save a little more first. If buing now means I save even $200 then I'd prefer to buy now. The reason I ask is 1911's will seemingly be...

    Conversation topics supporting gun rights

    Lets have a thread (sticky anyone?) where we all can dump any opposition we have faced in recent gun control conversations and the well thought out responses to those oppositions so that we can sound like we know what we are talking about and can make sound arguments against the antis. Here is...

    To show your support for the firearms industry wear clothing from firearms mfg's over the next few weeks. Make us visible in society so people can see at Walmart and the shopping mall how many people really are honest gun owners. That the guy checking out behind them wearing a S&W Tshirt or...

    Need new/used rifle - and suggestions

    To add, just bought a rem 700 ADL for $379 with sporter weight barrel. Gun is very light. Did this at the range while sighting in. The far left hole is my fault. So I'd say rem 700 though I don't know that this level of accuracy is common. I may have gotten lucky. I've seen lots of folks...

    Barrel break in, how many rounds?

    To be clear, this is not another how do you break in a barrel thread. I do not wish to discuss procedure as there is more than enough information regarding procedure out there. My question is, regardless of procedure how many rounds would you put down range before really trying to sight in for...

    Aftermarket hunting stock Rem 700 ADL

    Does anyone have experience with an aftermarket stock on a Rem 700 ADL? Most of what I have found have been target style stocks and I want the rifle to still be comfortable in the field. I am considering the McMillan A-3 sporter or the McMillan Hunter. Does anyone have any other...

    Free floated barrels and modern production

    It seems like a free floated barrel is a known improver of accuracy. Why do rifle manufacturers still make guns without free floated barrels? Seems to me it is not a cost to mfg issue, simply a design change from jump street. Anyone have any idea why not all modern rifles made have free...

    Building Bolt 700 vs buying and modding

    I am looking into building my first bolt rifle. I recently built my first AR (in the last 24 months) and am in the process of building another. The first was a more serious build, this second one is more of a plinker for the wife and/or a loaner for a friend to come shooting carbine matches...

    Concealability S&W M&P 45c vs Glock 23,19

    I used to have a G23 that carried very well but I got rid of it because I wasn't a fan of the .40. I have a CCO 1911 in .45 ACP now that I love but I am looking at the M&P line of pistols. My question is how does the M&P 45c carry as compared to the compact Glocks? The ergos of the M&P are...
