    Colt 1917

    I love my S&W 1917. My grandpa gave it to me. It's an excellent shooter and quite accurate. I also have massive hands so that helps. Marked US Property with S/N 50xxx. I wish it still had the original grips though.

(It was actually a poor choice since the windchill took the temp down to maybe the teens) Anyways, I had some cycling issues that I do not believe was due...

    Scope for an spr build

    I am trying to figure out what scope to get for my spr. I think I am torn between the nightforce nxs 2.5-10 x 32 and the USO MR-10 1.8-10x. Any advice or input would be appreciated. Edit: I don't have a budget per se, but $2500 would be the most I would want to spend. Less is more but I want a...

    Bi Metal Jacketed Bullets

    I seem to have a habit of derailing people's threads so I figured I would start my own.

    Sweat and Rust

    I would like to start by saying I am an extremely sweaty person. I know my first issue is, after I go shooting, I will store my handguns in a foam case. I know that this is terrible for the gun as the moisture from my hands is on the gun and soaks and seals in the foam lining. I just pulled out...

    .223 Wylde

    I have been looking at a .223 Wylde chambered AR for quite some time. Specifically an 18" chrome lined upper from PSA. The various research I have found online either seems to be contradicting or incomplete. Theoretically the .223 Wylde can be more accurate than a 5.56 chambered AR. I have also...
