    Duh, Lubricant really helps a gun cycle....

    I bought a used Beretta 21a 10+ years ago and have never liked it because it didn't cycle well and was totally unreliable as a result. Well, today I was digging around in my safe and came across it again. I took it out, really scrubbed it good and then lightly lubed with gun butter. We went...

    Bushnell Holosight Battery issue!

    I sent my Holosight back to Bushnell to have the Reticle adjusted and just got it back - What I am concerned about is that they had put a large piece of paper in the package with bold 20? font print stating that if it was not going to be used for over 3 days, the batteries should be removed to...

    Pertaining to my last thread about closure

    Mike Irwin makes a perfect example. Harsh and abrupt. I thought this forum was above that - May have to look at THR again.

    Pre-Ban Gun versus Pre-Ban Magazine question

    First, I know we can not give each other legal advise, so let me be clear that I am not asking for that.I own a post ban NRA Mini and live in NY State.

    My Mini-14 is here!!

    I broke down and bought this even though I dont really need it. Just don't want to ever be in a position where someone might tell me I can't buy one (If you know what I mean, without turning this into a political thread!). Anyhow, it shoots, handles and looks great. What would you guys put on...

    Bump Firing

    Hey guys, I stumbled across this on youtube and it appears to be a technique that essentially makes a semi fire like an auto - Check out video. Would this be considered illegal?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Va1TXGSCXk&NR=1

    My Sig C3 is about 1 1/2 years old and I truley love this gun. I had a few feed issues right off the bat that were fixed through breaking it in and them replacing the external extractor. After about 2,000 rounds, I noticed a crack in the barrel bushing and contacted Sig - They sent me a newer...

    Let's talk tactics:

    Hey guys and gals; For those of you that own your own land/range, what kind of targets or tacticle targets do you use. I am bored with my range - I have 0-25 yrd wood backstops for targets, 50 yard and 100 yard metal targets. I want to add more realistic pop up or training targets to...

    Biometrics Safe

    Has anyone been using these - I purchased the one when my kids were getting a little older and quicker at finding stuff - I use it by bedside and if I am in shower or just need a place to put my main carry gun for a short period - It saves me a trip to the safe. It is good in that it is...

    1911 firing underwater???

    Moderators, pardon me if this is previously posted (I searched, but didn't find it). I saw this in G&A and googled it: http://www.dlsports.com/underwater_handgun_shooting.html Pretty interesting that the glock was not as reliable as the 1911 - I am sure the custom 1911 played a role in that...
