My grandmother found 3 rounds of .38 special in her safe (my grandfather had firearms) and gave them to me last time I visited her. I've never seen bullets like that in a .38. They have a pointed tip instead of a round or flat nose. At the bottom they are marked ".38 special Geco". I looked that...

I've been more into Glocks lately, but I want to get proficient with the Browning now. The rear sight is not centered, there it even a notch on the slide AND the sight. I guess the original owner (I bought it used) did that after finding his perfect POA/POI, but it doesn't work for me! So...

I've found some good deals on bulk 9mm ammo (1000 rounds), and all brands are roughly the same prize. I can get Fiocchi, Sellier&Bellot and Magtech. I've shot a lot of S&B 9mm so far and it's never given me any problems, I like it. But I've never shot any Magtech and not much Fiocchi. Which...

I went to the gunshop yesterday to take a look at what they have at the moment and I've wanted to buy a new handgun for some time now. They had a beautiful FN HP that caught my eye immediately. It's used but in an (almost) perfect condition. Very nice blueing and the internals look flawless...

What can you tell me about that rifle at the bottom of this page: http://www.reloading-center.com/index.php ? The owner told me that it's a very rare firearm, produced in the late 1950s (also mentioned beneath the picture) and that it is the predecessor of the M-16 assault rifle. But was...

I was interested in that pistol for a long time and it will be available soon (May) in Germany. But I just saw an advertisement in a magazine and it will cost 1200 €:eek: What makes that gun so expensive? A USP costs about 700 € (which is a reasonable price IMO) and the new, similar P30 costs...

In the attached picture, you can see a strange handle behind the magazine. Does anybody know what that is used for? I looks like a foregrip, but it's placed on a rather strange and useless place, so I guess it's something different. I've never seen it on the shorter version (L85A1), only on the...

Are pistols chambered for 9mm and .45 more accurate than the one's in .40 S&W for some reason or is it the recoil that makes them a bit less controllable for a lot of people? I wondered about this for some time now since that is the impression I get from reading about those calibers and...

Today I decided to finally get myself an AK. A 47, because I prefere the 7,62x39 caliber. But then I discoverd that - unlike 4 month ago when I last checked on it - they are not allowed anymore. The most stupid thing is, I can still buy a fully-automatic AK on "détention" (have it at home, but...

I can't decide which one to get. I want a reliable, accurate and high-quality pistol. I must be at least as good as my Glock, which I like a lot, but after handling several different guns at the range, I decided to buy something that has a "slightly" more comfortable trigger. I narrowed it...

Which one is the most accurate of these 4? (probably not the AK...)

1. How does the trigger of the Walther P99 QA works? Is it like Sig's DAK or Glock? 2. Same question for the trigger of the Beretta Px4 Type C. 3. Are the Sig Pros available with a DAK trigger? Thx in advance, I'm sure someone can help me.

Well...what else can i say...? Would it be a bad idea to use wolf ammo in my 9mm Glock?

Is an original, Russian AK-47 any better/worse than a modern AK-clone? Which one would you choose and why?

I'm looking for either a Russian Mosin Nagant or German K98...What are your suggestions? Which one should I buy? I have only shot the Nagant, yet and I quite liked it. But I heard only good things about the K98 too, so I consider them both.

I'd appreciate some suggestions on those guns: - Sig Sauer P220 .45 acp - FN/Browning GP/HP 9mm - Beretta 92 FS 9mm (- H&K USP45 havent found a good deal on one of those yet:( ) It will be used for the range only and cost of ammunition is no issue, since I can reload the .45 and the 9mm is...

What are the pros/cons of this round? Except the price of course:( I considered buying a semi-auto in that caliber, just to have something different from the usual 9mm/.40/.45

There are a lot of GLOCK threads lately ("lately";) ) , but I really need your advise. I haven't had much time to take my new Glock to the range yet, but I shot about 300 rounds so far. At the beginning I thought I'd have to familiarize myself with it, but accuracy is still non-existent. Out...

I'm sure there was at least one thread like this, but i couldnt find it:o I prefer the looks of a 4" barrel, but I want the highest accuracy possible...Is there a significant difference in accuracy between a revolver with a 4" barrel and one with a 6" ?

I wanted to share some pics of my new toys;) Finally my Glock 17 arrived and I love it! Last week I went to the gun store with a friend of mine and we found a used Fal and a Taurus revolver...He picked up the Taurus and I couldnt resist the Fal. The guy at the store told me that it was a...
