    Bushmaster advertisement

    Rightly or wrongly, Bushmaster has now become a household word. If the name was little known before this incident, this is no longer the case now. Again, rightly or wrongly, I'll bet the sale of Bushmasters skyrocket.

    I was firing Remington's Golden Sabre 357 today at the range with the Colt revolver and when the sixth cylinder started to rotate up into the firing position, it jammed.

    I was at the range the other day with my son, having a good old time putting holes in targets. He was shooting a SIG. Darn near jam proof product, I feel. We were shooting PMC's 40 and .45 cal. Then his gun jammed. How can that be I thought. I looked at it. The bullet case was just a bit to...

    1991A1 spring plugs

    I keep reading about problems with plugs blowing out of models 1991A1, 1911 and that style of pistol. Is this a real common problem? Does the plug just shoot out of the gun when it fails? Is the aluminum guns more prone to this problem than steel ones? You info is appreciated.

    Caliber of choice

    Seen an article the paper today. It mentioned numerous weapons of our Special Forces in our seize of Kabul. I found it interesting that it mentioned the caliber of the pistol was a .45 cal.

    Hey guys, I've noticed on other forums, you can sign out when you leave. If a person got on the computer you were using, they could not edit and make posts without signing on first with your password. I think that would be a good idea for this forum. It would be an option to sign out. If you...

    What if pigs could fly?

    What "if pigs could fly"? What if you had a job in the government, all you did all day long is name things. Like for an example, some one had to name the A-10 WartHog. Which I find very ironic that a "PIG" reigns down death from above to a people that despise the animal. I think I would name the...

    What does bin Ladin want?

    1911 Achillies Heel

    In you opinion , what seems to be the Achillies Heel of the 1911/1991A1 semi auto? The part that seems to fail the most. The one part if you could change to make it last longer, you would.
