So my boss called the other day and is giving me a nice year end bonus. I thought about buying another gun (.45) but I got checking ammo prices and remembered all the reloads I've shot with my dad. I have no previous experience with reloading (I did however read the newbie thread here.) My...

I bought a 686 about a year ago for $400. After shooting some .38's in it I stepped up to full .357 mag loads. The cylinder began to bind after about 2 rounds. I was able to get it unstuck, but it will bind with full mag loads everytime. One thing I found was if I run Blazer aluminum .357 in it...

I've seen numerous threads with pictures of beautiful spotless wheelguns, and I want to know how you get the cylinders clean of all that excess carbon? My .357 is SS, and I can't seem to get it clean (which is why I have owned primarily blued guns!) What's a guy to do? Helpful advice please is...

I was all hung up on getting a new shotgun, then I started running my home accounts and found out my wife had spent a bit more than she let on. New plan, I went and bought a new Browning Buckmark 22lr. Pretty nice little pistol for less than $300, and a whole heck of a lot cheaper to shoot than...

for alot of us "New Shotgunners" can some of you old hands explain the technical terms? I keep reading Heel, comb, fit, cheek piece, gas feed, and Inertia feed. I used to really be into sport shooting, but I had an old Mossberg Mod500, now I'm searching for a quality gun for around $600, but the...

I went today and looked at some shotguns, and I was wondering if I could get some opinions on good entry level shotguns. Also for Skeet shooting is an over/under better than a pump? I fell in love a Browning 12ga. pump, but then they have a gorgeous Mossberg 12ga. over/under. The Browning is...

Is this a decent price for a used G19? It has a little wear, and has been dropped, it has some damage to the butt where it's actually chipped (a chunk is knocked out, the dealer guarantees the same as a new one) but it seems sound. Thoughts? I can buy NIB for $100 more. I'm thinking new, but...

really lifetime? I have an older 686 (it's stamped 1987 inside the grips), and it tends to bind on full mag loads. I can shoot aluminum Blazer .357 in it just fine, but I get one, maybe two .357 brass rounds and it's bound up. It eats the heck out of .38 loads, brass or otherwise. Thoughts...

I am an admitted "Wheel Gun Guy" and I'm not ashamed of that fact, but I need something I can conceal a bit more easily IWB. I have read a bit about automatics (again I openly admit I know VERY little about them) and I know I'm wanting a single stack for the slimness. Caliber is a non issue as I...

Not sure if this is allowed, but didn't see anything against it. Got neat photos from the range, firing line, competition..or just plinking? Let's see 'em. I stole this idea from NatJonB.........I'll go first, since I'm proud of the fact that my son isn't afraid to shoot.... shooting the .357...

I usually hang out in the Handgun forums, but I want to ask a question about my most current purchase. I bought a rifle from my father last Easter. It is a Ruger M77 25.06 with a 4x scope (not sure of maker.) It was made in 1975 (according to the Ruger Serial# search, if memory serves) and has...

I am looking into purchasing a handgun for CC, but I have NO experience carrying. I am a cowboy style shooter with a full leather rig for my S&W686 .357mag. I also have a Ruger p95 9mm for home defense (my wife liked the way it handled.) My issue is, I work in convenience stores, and I want...
