Am I the only one who likes them? This one is definitely in the mouse gun category, http://www.naaminis.com/lrifle.html as is my High Standard DM-101...

More info on something we're all too ready aware of. "Hunters and gun enthusiasts are learning a tough fact these days: Bullets don't need to be made of silver any more to cost a lot of money. Reuters is reporting that, thanks to the high price of metal and constant demand from militias...

I just got the latest flier from Midway today, and I can't believe the prices for ammo any more. Not just factory ammo, but even reloading supplies. Good Lord! I think they've just about doubled in the past year. Looks like I'm going to be using my .22 rimfires more often, but even those...

Hi, folks I got my walnut grips for my Beretta 92F today. Now all of my little hand cannons are sporting fine wood grips. The plastic grips on the 92 were perfectly functional, but I just like wood better. I though I'd share a photo. Regards, skeeter

I'm looking for plans to make a bullet trap for my basement range, and can't find any. Something that would handle .38/9mm. I've got a .22 bullet trap, and it works fine, but I'd like to shoot the bigger iron sometimes. Yes, my air-handler has ducts in the basement and a HEPA filter, so I'm...

I'm not looking to make anyone jealous, but you likely might be. The little Beretta is my M87 Cheetah, which I paid plenty for ($650). The larger one is my new (old) Beretta 92F, which I got from my cousin for a better price -- free. I've always wanted a 92, but couldn't bring myself to...

I do like my little Crosman 2250B CO2 rifle for shooting on my little (25') range in my basement. However, I've never liked the skinny trigger on it. I searched all over and couldn't find a trigger shoe for it, but I did come across someone on the net who made his own. I wish I knew who he...

"LANSING -- A man tired of burglars nearly blew off his hand when bomb-like devices he set around his house exploded in his presence instead, authorities said. Victor Iacobescu, 50, ran to a neighbor's house Thursday with a bloody towel wrapped around his right hand. "Apparently, he was trying...

I heard a noise that sounded like it came from my garage last night. It's attached to the house, and I was pretty sure I had all of the doors locked. Well, I grabbed my .38 to investigate, but to turn on the lights in the garage, I would have had to open up the inside door and stick my arm out...

Like many of you, I've got a safe brimming with a bunch of fun toys to head to the range with. I added one more to the arsenal today, but a little different -- a new air rifle. I already have two pneumatic airguns, a Crosman rifle and a Benjamin pistol, but they're both 40+ years old and...

A few weeks ago I got a police & fire scanner, mostly for the entertainment value. (Amazing what goes on around you on a Saturday night that you never hear about.) Well, today was a little different. I got up this morning and flipped on the scanner to discover a bank robery in progress. That...

There have been quite a few threads lately along the lines of "Is the revolver obsolete?", "Is a .38Spl adequate for SD/HD?", "Does a snubby make for a suitable carry gun?". Well I just happen to have a S&W 2007 Product Guide sitting next to me, and thought I'd summarize their offerings...

Let's hope this one quietly fades away. :( Bill Prohibits Remote-Controlled Killing Of Animals POSTED: 5:18 am EDT July 27, 2007 BOSTON -- Massachusetts would become the 34th state to ban hunting via an Internet connection under a bill passed by the House on Thursday. By a margin of...

This article in Newsweek (by way of MSNBC) describes a survey showing a substantial decline in the numbers of hunters and fisherman over the last 5 years. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19262063/site/newsweek/ It disturbs me a bit, but I can't say that it surprises me. In my neck of the woods...

When I first got into waterfowl hunting some 30 years ago, lead shot was the norm. Now just about everywhere it's steel (or some other non-lead shot) required. My shotguns are SKB SxS doubles, and I was told never to use steel shot in them, as it would cause the barrels to bulge at the chokes...

After shooting for more years than I care to remember, I find myself being drawn back to shooting my .22s. Revolvers, semi-autos, rifles, they're all fun. With the price of centerfire ammo going somewhere over the moon, the little .22 is just as much fun, and easy on the wallet. You can...

1) .22LR 2) .22 Mag 3) .223 4) .243

I got one today, and it was only 5 bucks. All I have to do is drill a 1/2" hole in the steel front door, and I should be able to handle that once it warms up a bit. Is it worth putting in? I have had neighborhood kids trying to get into my house a couple of times when I've been home. By...
