Today I ordered a desert eagle 1911 22lr conversion. Grabagun had them for $81 so I took a chance. I have both series 70 and 80 1911s so I figure it should fit something. It looks nice from the picture so I have my fingers crossed. Has anyone seen one in person...

Well I went and did it. With all the deals on the Remington RP9 pistols I kind of got sucked in. I ordered one from Brownells on Sunday for $289 shipped and it has a $100 rebate. It should get to my FFL Wednesday so I shall soon find out if I made a big mistake or I'm pleasantly surprised...

This just a heads up. The bulgarian maks listing on the DOJ safety list expires on 12/6/2002. If no one pays the fees to keep them on the list, after that date your ffl won't be able to get you one. So if you want one now is the time. Mark

Could someone measure the diameter of the recoil guide rod on their witness fullsize .45. I'm trying to find a sustitute recoil spring for a charles daly DDA pistol. KBI doesn't have any. Wolff springs or brownell's doesn't list the DDA either. Mark

This is a heads up for HS 2000 owners. My HS after about 5000 flawless rounds started to develop failures to extract, about 4 or 5 every 100 rounds. As you know the springfield xd is the same pistol. I ordered a new extractor from springfield. The new extractor has a slightly bigger claw, more...

If this has been gone over I'm sorry but I wasn't aware of it. I knew of how all firearms now sold in california have to have a trigger lock or you most show that you own a safe but I was shocked when I was in walmart today. By the rifles they have a big sign that states that if a juvenile gains...

Just passing this along. They have them for $195. http://www.southernohiogun.com/products.html Mark

I have a kimber custom and I'm planning on putting adjustable sights on it. I use the gun for target shooting and for some local pistol matches. I'm trying to decide between MMC sights and kimber adjustables. I guess my main interest is the sight picture. I've seen kimber's but not MMC's. I want...

This session legislators have also introduced a number of misguided gun control bills. These bills are feel-good legislation that do nothing to keep firearms out of the hands of criminals. SB 52 (Scott) and AB 35 (Shelley) require an individual to obtain a handgun certificate (license) from...

I just ordered a replacement barrel for my makarov that is chrome lined. What exactly does chrome lining do? Are they more accurate? Any info would be appreciated. Mark

Hs 2000, pin problem I have a new hs 2000. It is a polymer pistol somewhat similar to a glock. It has a pin that holds mag release assembly in the gun. The pin goes completely through the frame above the mag release button. After firing about 100 rounds the pin walks out of the frame about a...

My russian commercial mak barrel seems to be over throated from the factory. I get case bulges and I was wondering if anyone here has tried federal barrels in their maks. Are they accurate? Also if I get one it will be with the barrel press, how hard is it to change barrels? Thanks, Mark.

Are there any good smiths in the southern cal area that can be recommended? I live around riverside. I want to put sights on my arcus hipower.

I tried to call them today 3 times no answer. I tried to email them and the email didn't go through. Does anyone know what is going on? I wanted to send them my arcus hipower for some sights. I hope they are still in business.

I recieved an e-mail the other day from my sister. I thought I would pass it along. The State of Our Country > > Guess our national leaders didn't expect this, hmm? On Thursday, Darrell > Scott, the father of Rachel Scott, a victim of the...

Can anyone tell me the width of the dovetail cuts on the newer fn hi-powers? The reason I want to know is I want to put mec-gar adjustables on my arcus hi-power. The sights on the arcus and the fn look very similar. I took out the arcus sights they measure .285" in the rear and about .280" to...

I just ordered some mec-gar's for my cz75B. The stock rear sight on the gun is super tight. Any suggestions on how to replace the front and rear sight would be appreciated. I'm thinking I might have to find a smith with a sight pusher. Thanks.

The other day one of our members mentioned that century arms is importing arcus hi-powers now. That caught my attention because I have an arcus and it is great gun for the money. It's accurate and the trigger is excellent after a litte polishing on the sear. The slide to frame fit is very good...

It's made by John Norrell Manufacturing. Has anyone tried these finishes? It seems like it might be similar to gun kote. I was thinking of getting some to try. Here's some info on it if anyone is...

I checked the list today and both the .380 and 9mm Jenning pistols passed the safety test. I thought the purpose of these expensive tests was to eliminate "unsafe" guns like Jenning. What a waste of money. So now in California I can buy a Jenning, Davis or a Phoenix pistol but not something...
