Hi. Just wondering when you guys think the military is going to stop using the M16's. Do you think it'll be a few years from now, or sometime later? Also, if the military was to stop using M16's, would there be a surplus of them that could be cheaply bought?

I've been looking around at Colt Pythons recently but I've decided I don't have the money for one. Then I came across this gun called the Colt King Cobra. It's very similar to the python cosmetically, and it's chambered in the same caliber. One thing that I liked about it is thats it's VERY...

I was bored on the computer today and I stumbled across this website: http://www.marines.com/main/index/winning_battles/gear/weapons_and_equipment/m16 This is actually this official site of the US Marines. Something here that struck me as strange is it says the M16 is capable of firing 3-round...

I just went to the range last week with a friend of mine who let me shoot his Sig P229 in 9mm, and a Sig P226 in 40 with a 357 drop-in barrel. I was curious about range experiences with these few calibers so I'm glad I got to compare them. This is for all of you new hangun people out there...

I was looking at Sig's website, after purchasing a Sig P226ST in 9mm, and noticed that they don't make the ST pistols anymore :confused: The only stainless-framed 226's on the site are the X-Five and the elite but there's no more standard ST. When did Sig stop making ST pistols? Why did they...

I was browsing Sig's website just a few minutes ago and I came across this page: http://www.sigsauer.com/SigStore/ShowProductDetails.aspx?categoryid=0&productid=90 According to this, you can get a 45S&W barrel for the Sig P220 (second to last one on the list) :confused: Is this some sort of...

What is your experience with Sig reliability?

Which in your opinion is best for home-defense?

What is your view on the XD(m) vs. XD?

How much do you think I would expect to pay for a really beat up, but still functional, Colt Python?

In your opinion, what is the better self-defense round? .40 S&W or 357 SIG?

I recently bought a Sig P226ST from my local gunshop the other day. I took it out to the range along with some 115gr. CCI Blazer and some 147 gr. Federal Premium. I am not the biggest Sig guy around, but I do know Sigs are supposed to be reliable guns (generally.) So I start shooting the gun...

Are there any conversion kits out there that allow you to convert your GSG-5 to 9mm?

I am a big fan of stainless firearms. I was looking in to buying a baby eagle and was wondering, does Magnum Research make or have they made a baby eagle in stainless before? I looked at google images and I saw a few baby eagles in stainless (like the one shown below) but can't find them on the...

I've been looking around for a good semi-automatic .308 WIN rifle just to plink around with at the range. I hear about the HK91's and the FN FAL's, but I never hear about any relatively affordable .308 sporters out there (like under $1000.) Does anybody know of any affordable semi-automatic...

Yesterday I decided to buy a used Sig P226 in two-tone from my local gun shop. When I got home I realized that my two-tone 226 looked different than other two-tones 226's. The hammer, trigger, decocker, slide release, and takedown lever were all stainless! So I did some research and found that...

I knew something was different about my AK when i bought it, and I just found out what it was! The AK has a wooden stock and a wooden handguard, but a synthetic pistol grip! I've looked at many AK's online, and all of the ones with wooden stock furniture had a wooden pistol grip too. Is this a...

How often do you clean your auto pistols? I clean them after every trip to the range, and I usually only shoot 100 rounds of ammo each range session. Am I overdoing it?

I don't have very much money to spend on a new gun, and I don't want to sell any of my old ones. I really want my next gun to be a mediuam framed 357 revolver. I've narrowed it down to the S&W 686+ and the Ruger GP100. The GP100 is much cheap than the Smith gun. Is there a reason why the 686 is...

Does anybody make a rifle in 5.45x39mm other than Arsenal?
