    PK380 or LC9

    I currently own a PK380. I love the way it handles and shoots and I have never had any issues with it whatsoever. It's usually my carry gun when wearing shorts or riding my motorcycle. I really thought I'd keep it forever. Here's the dilemna. I finally was able to look at a LC9 at my LGS...

    What type barrel for slug or buckshot?

    Currently I have two 870 Express, one has the 26 vent rib barrel with Modified Rem Choke and the other is an 18" fixed Cylinder choke barrel. Can I use slugs with the Mod Rem choke (for deer) or buckshot/slug with the fixed Cylinder (for home defense)? Thanks in advance.

    M&P 15-22 ammo

    I mostly use CCI AR Tactical, CCI Standard Velocity and Federal Auto Match ammo for mine. Of the three the most accurate is the Standard Velocity. All three have functioned about 99% of the time. I have tried using Remington and Winchester but they seem to leave my rifle dirtier with around...

    Cutting down your barrel

    I have a Beretta A3901 that I want to customize and make it a HD gun. First thing I want to do is take to local gunsmith to cut the barrel down from 28" to 20". My question is, does the action get affected by shortening up the barrel? What type of sight can I put on it besides a bead? Thanks...

    Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic or Aimpoint Comp M2

    I'm looking on updating my red dot on my M&P 15 OR to either an Aimpoint Pro or the Comp M2. I used the M2 (M68 CCO) on my last tour and am very familiar with it. I like everything about it. I've read a little about the PRO. It's cheaper and already comes with a mount. However, I have...

    7 vs 8 rd 1911 magazines

    I'm new to 1911s. I was looking up spare mags for my SA 1911 Milspec and I noticed the different rd capacity. My factory mag is 7 rd and I was looking at some mags that has 8 rd cap. If I buy the 8 rd cap mags, will it stick out the bottom a little. I know it's probably a dumb question but...

    Decision's decisions

    So the wife not only gave me the go ahead for another pistol but she is giving it to me as a father's day gift. I thought I was set on a SA 1911, but now I just don't know. There are so many different ones to choose from. What caliber, manufacturer, use, etc... Already in the safe are PK380...

    Golf Ball Target at 200 and 340 yards

    Off another post I saw a question of how hard would it be to shoot a golf ball at 300 yards. So I thought why not just do it. I had zeroed my Rem 700 .223 with a 4-12X40 Redfield Accurange at 200 yards using Hornady 55 gr SP and took five shots at the first golf ball at 200 yards. I made...

    Rem 700 ADL Varminter bolt hard to chamber

    I have a Rem 700 in .223. When chambering a round, the bolt is really hard to lock down and it shaves the rim of the case. With the chamber empty the bolt engages easy enough. This happens with all ammo I have used. Anybody run into the same problem? What is your solution/suggestion?

    7.62x39 AR Upper

    I have seen the new 7.62x39 AR uppers (Bushmaster, Olympic and DPMS) at Cabelas. Most of them are sold out. Are there other companies out there that sell these uppers, maybe for a little less than what they sell at the big box store?

    DSA

    Anybody own a DSA AR? I was looking into to their uppers and wanted to find out a little more from owners. Please don't try to sell me on another upper by other manufacturers. I just want to know if DSA uppers shoot well and are reliable. Thank you.

    Wife's XDm 3.8 9mm

    I bought my wife her very own XDm 3.8 9mm for her birthday. We took it to the range today and she was very happy at the ease of shooting and the minimal felt recoil. She shot 2 inch groups at 15 yards. I think we have a winner! :)

    Used Gun Purchase

    I'm very hesitant when it comes to purchasing used guns whether from a gun shop or individual. Is there a way to track by serial number a history of the gun such as manufacturing date? I was about to buy a used 92fs but the guy behind the counter couldn't tell me how old it was. Maybe he was...

    XDM

    My wife and I were looking at some guns at a local Academy and she really liked the XDM Compact in .40 cal. Any personal experience and opinion about this model and caliber. She usually shoots a SIG SP2022 in 9mm and is very comfortable with the full size.:cool:
