    Glock 27 aftermarket barrel

    I have had my Glock for about a month now. It is the most ugly little gun that I have ever seen but is has now grown on me. In any event I'm lead shooter and to be honest I shoot a lot of lead at any given time. So far the little 40 has only seen brass since I am up in the air with everything...

    When it all goes so wrong

    This is a 40 S&W fired out of my Beretta 96. This is the first reload in over 15 years that went bad. The first one and second one fired with no problems then came the third round. I knew something was wrong pretty fast when some debris hit my face and I noticed black marks on my right hand...

They are knowledgeable with gun safety and have shot just about everything I own. My oldest isn't a hunter but on occasion...

    Original 45-70 Springfield Trapdoor

    This has been in the family since at least the 1880's. I can remember shooting it when I was a kid in the 1970's. My dad gave it to me in the mid 1980's. It is in very great shape and I even shot s deer with in three years ago. It is still pretty accurate and has seen more than a few boxes of...

    25-06 My First Rifle Reloads

    I’m new to rifle reloading and I have had great success with my first reloads though it took me a little trial & error to produce the first ones. I have reloaded pistol rounds since 1993. It has been a simple process put powder in the Dillon 650 and out popped round after round. I never had the...
