    Walther PPS Range Report

    I purchased the PPS 9mm several weeks ago and finally took it to the range. I shot several brands of 115 and 147gr FMJ and JHP ammo thru it. Approx 125rds at 15 yards. Not much to say - It ran perfectly with everything! I am a lefty so sometimes with other guns I take brass on the forehead. Not...

    Winchester 94 Problem

    Installed a Ramline stock on my post 64 crossbolt safety model Winchester and now getting lite primer strikes at times. Happens mostly using PMC Cowboy ammo but at times other factory brand ammo as well. Firing pin looks OK and channel has been cleaned. Any ideas? Thanks.

    A Tale of Two Barrels

    I received two match grade drop in barrels this week that I ordered. One was a KKM for my Glock 30. It dropped in and was tight! But thats the way you want it and after about 50 hand cycles it loosened up and appears to be fine. I haven't shot the G30 with this barrel so I don't know about...

    My S&W 5903 Project Gun

    I picked up a 5903 Atlanta Police trade in for $279. The gun shoots reliability but accuracy is only so so. In all fairness I only tried 115gr ammo but I want to build the gun anyway so I didn't spend much time with it at the range after I checked reliability. I am about to install a Bar-Sto...

    Rifle Stock Question

    Is there any way that I can make a new rifle wood stock look aged? I don't want to sand the finish. This is on a new Winchester 94. I don't like the glossey shiney finish look. Thanks.

    S&W 360PD Range Report

    I purchased the 360 used in a private party sale. It had been fired 100 times. This model is the one with the regular red insert sight instead of the light tube. Lock up is very good with no end shake and just a trace of side to side play. Took it to the range earlier this week. Ammo used was...

    How much endshake is too much?

    I have a S&W M67 that has developed some endshake. No signs of battering nor any reliability problems. I shoot only standard pressure 38spl thru it. Should I go ahead and send it back to S&W for repair? Any idea of average repair costs from people who have had this problem? Thanks.

    S&W M10-7 Range Report

    I procured the M10 in a trade with Mikey357 a couple of months ago and took it out for it's first real range visit yesterday. The S&W has a 4in pencil barrel and a reasonably tight lock up. Great trigger as most S&Ws from this era seem to have. Ammo used was GA Arms 158gr FMJ, a few Fed 125gr...

    Ruger P-85 Question

    The P-85 was Ruger's entry into the P series market. There were design problems with the original barrel. These caused problems with accuracy. It is my understanding that Ruger then contracted Bar-Sto to design a new barrel and these were used on later model P-85s. This was before the P-89 came...

    Which Handgun and Vest

    Having just retired from manufacturing maintenance after 35 years and now that money isn't the all important factor I have decided to go into a line of work that I feel I will more enjoy. Being a realist I know I am too old to run, jump over fences and get into brawls I have been interviewing...

    CZ75B SA 40cal Range Report

    Traded for this unfired CZ earlier this week and took it to the range yesterday. The obvious differences between this CZ and my CZ75B Mil Turk other than cal are SA, ambi safety, skel liteweight hammer, poly trigger and full length SS guide rod. I suppose the frame is a little beefier (I didn't...
