    Can you tell me about the Savage Model 5

    I recently picked up an older Savage Model 5 at the local gun shop. It needed a good cleaning and a little care, but seems to be all there. Looking for as much information as someone can tell me about age or anything really. From what I can tell the model started in 33, and and the checkered...

    Marlin 60: buy new, or buy old ?

    I would like a Marlin 60. I like the idea of an inexpensive plinker, I have other firearms to do other stuff with. What is your opinion? Buy a new one for $159-179 or buy an older (1970s or so ) used one and why? New ones have more plastic right? Are there part availability problems with...

    How do you compare guns when shopping?

    This is a great place to learn, but one has to go to the range eventually. I was comparing several 9mm a couple months ago. Xdm, SR9, g26, g19, and so on. Point is after a bit I started not loving or disliking any. More of an eh...it's nice. This one is better here or that feels ok.. I had...

    22lr in a 22 magnum revolver

    Aside from the split casings and possible extraction issues, are there any other reasons not to use 22lr in a 22m revolver?? The reason this came up is the SP101 in 22 currently is.a.22lr only. I figure it will come out 22m before anything.else. My single six is fine.with both cylinders but...
