    Who has experience with the New PPK?

    I had a chance to shoot one last weekend, and I was surprised at how well it shot, and at 25 yards too. It also has a good trigger for this type of handgun. DA was a little heavy, but smooth. I found one in my local gun store. The trigger was the same as the one I shot this weekend. So, I...

    What makes the M14/M1a

    maintenance heavy? I have shot them on occasion, but confess I am not an M14 expert. I keep hearing / reading how they need to be rebuilt or "overhauled" often in order to preserve the accuracy. I am assuming rifles above the standard grade. If this is true, why is it so? Thanks

    AR-24 Range Report

    This past Sunday, I took my son to a local indoor range. He is in on leave from a tour in Iraq with the U.S. Army. He is on his second tour, and was glad to be home. I might add, we were glad to have him home. We started out just before our range time at Wal Mart acquiring four boxes of...

    Does anyone have any experience with this shotgun? I am interested in reliability and function for intended purpose. I realize that the Marines adopted it, but I do not know, if it has had enough field time to prove itself. Dobe

    Need help with a P7M8 holster

    I will be picking one up this week, and I may actually go CCW with it. I prefer the 1911 in .45, but the P7 seems to be a great handgun for concealed carry. Anyway, I would appreciate any advice you can give. I have already posted on the Cult's website. They gave me some great advice, but...

    Out of all of the handguns I own, I do not own one alloy frame. I am about to be the proud owner of a LNIB Beretta 87. I was wondering if any of you have ever notice an accelerated wearing, perhaps in the slide fitting, on your alloy frame autos. Dobe

    LC Smith -

    I am thinking about buying an LC Smith (1970's edition, Marlin Co.) that I saw today that is in almost mint condition, full and modified chokes, and of course a true sidelock. The price is $1220. Is that in line or not? I need to know. After tomorrow I will be out of town, and will not be able...

    Colt Gov Mod. .380

    Just wondering if any of you have or do own this pistol, and if so, what you think of it. I saw a stainless full size (not the Mustang) used of course, and I am curious what the going rate for one in great shape. Dobe

    I know that this has been posed many times. I did a search, but could not find anything. I am looking to make a purchase of a high quality range bag for autos and revolvers. The type of shooting is combat-style / plinking. Thanks in advance, Dobe
