    Sight removal and installation tool

    I'm looking for a universal (well within reason) sight removal and installation tool to change the sights on my 1911, glocks, and walther semis. I'm a bit flustered with the many choices I've sen at brownells, midway etc. Anyone have one that they have used and like? If its a quality tool that...

    Stinger Pen gun

    I'm curious if anyone has any firsthand experience with these. They were also branded as Braverman pen gun as well from what I gather. They're classed as a normal pistol not a AOW which is sort of attractive but they're CRAZY expensive from what I've seen of the few auctions. Kind of keen to buy...

    Ruger SR22 slide peening

    After around 4500 rounds through m little SR 22 the left under side of the slide was showing some abnormal wear just aft of the slide stop notch. Called up Ruger and they said they'd like to look at it and possibly replace the slide altogether. I sent it out on their dime 5/4 and got it back...

    Where have the classified sections gone?

    I've tried logging out and back in but they don't show up and if I click a link to a thread in the classified section it says I'm not authorized. What the heck, I'm an active member and I've bought and sold through the forum before??? :confused:

    Accidental discharges Modern vs. historic

    I'm wondering how common it was to have AD or ND with revolvers and 1911's vs todays glock / walther / ? striker fired trigger safety style pistols. Lots of people seem convinced that every person with a glock (just a convenient example, I own and like mine_ is going to shoot a hole in the...

    Full auto 10/22

    I've heard that there is a Drop in auto sear type setup for the ruger 10-22. I'm thinking this would be a great setup and heck I can afford to shoot .22 on auto. If anyone has any info on this or has used one I'd appreciate some more info. Thanks!

    Finally got the Ruger 1911

    Finally got my first 1911 and went for the Ruger. I swapped out the stick grip panels which are really nice but I prefer the hogue grips with the finger grooves. It was 100% reliable through the first 120 rds. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    9mm AR?

    I've been playing with the idea of getting one of the AR's chambered in 9mm. Not sure if I should just get an upper or if I should get a purpose built and matched upper and lower. Anyone have experience with these? THANKS

    Barrel leading!

    I've been shooting since I was a little kid and I've never seen leading like I got today in two different .22's I had with me. I shot about 200 rds and all of the sudden accuracy went to crap. Finished the mag and brought target back in (was shooting at 10yds) and saw the keyholes, switched ammo...

    Value of a police trade in S&W model 10

    I bought a police trade in smith model 10 last fall and its a great gun but revolvers just aren't my thing. What's it worth if I trade it in or sell it here on the boards? Not looking to get huge money for it or anything just wondering what fair market is.

    RI ccw permit?

    I currently reside in CT and have a ct carry permit as well as a few other states that offer non resident permits. I've inquired briefly with the state about moving to ri full time and what it takes to get a carry permit and everyone I spoke to made it sound damn near impossible. Anyone have...

    Hornady Steel match

    My only experience with steel case ammo has been wolf in my AR. Hornady now has their steel match ammo which they are selling as a premium ammo both for long guns as well as hand guns. I'm confused. I thought only the rusks used steel case and only because it was cheap???? What the hell, I'm...

    New SR22 range report

    I bought a new sr22 on friday because i've been looking for a new plinker. I bought a p22 almost a year ago and I bought a Beretta Neos in december but something about the sr22 really caught my eye. Some people have described it as a new and improved p22 and I can't disagree but that's an...

    Just picked up a Garand!

    Took a couple days off now that I'm back in the country and went to the CMP north store in ohio. Very very cool shop with some serious Garand gurus / nuts. I'll post up some pics of the rifle tomorrow when I'm home. I picked a Springfield special grade with a new barrel and new furniture. Spent...

    Disappointed with new beretta neos

    Finally got a chance to shoot my new beretta noes last night. On about the third mag the was a slightly louder pop and I saw a bit of a flash from the ejection port, looked more closely and there was a spring hanging out of the chamber! What the %$#@! Extractor was gone. Not sure how it failed...

    Funny range experience with Ruger SR 1911

    I went to my LGS a couple days ago to see what was on the used case and to maybe pickup one of the ruger 1911's I have been eyeing. They had one for rent as well so I figured I'd give it a go before I plunked down the money for my own (I'd never shot a 1911 prior to this:eek:) I was amazed at...

    Checking my ccw on the plane

    Second time flying with a gun. Sitting outside the little special screening room now...... It's really a fairly painless process. More people should exercise the right. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
