    Carl Gustafs 6.5x55....enlighten me.

    Okay....I'll be honest I'm a bow hunter at heart, rarely touch long guns outside of shotguns and 22's for squirrels. However, working part time at a shooting range/gun store I've fallen in love with a few of the older guns that have just been sitting on the rack...just clueless on them. The one...

    Inherited Piece...no clue

    So it's been sitting collecting dust but I really wanna get this piece up and running again. From the data on the gun itself it is an Armsport Inc. Model 5018 blackpowder pistol. It doesn't say but appears to be a 44 cal, but again brand new to the blackpowder pistol scene. Anything I need...

    Alright 44 Mag ammo round for deer...

    My SKS is going to be turning into something more practical, a .44 Magnum Lever Action today...my question is what round do you .44mag shooters have for deer hunting? Buffalo Bore is the one recommendation I've received from one person...but want other options? It's a Rossi 92 .44 Mag Lever, so...

    Rifle advice...

    I'm looking a little more in the future than I probably should but the chances of me going to Tennessee this upcoming year for whitetails is looking pretty positive (friend's 200 acres). The thing is though while I'll be primarily Bow hunting...he stated I should also bring a rifle depending...

    2011 Whitetail Harvest Thread...

    I realize with this forum gun seasons will bring the most pics but figured I'd get a 2011 Whitetail Thread started...because as we all know it's a blast just seeing what everyone else is getting. I got this guy October 15th with my Missions Venture compound and a 100gr. Grim Reaper broadhead...

    Mossberg 195D-B stole it pretty much...now curious?

    Went into a LGS to get a .44 blackpowder pistol looked at (inherited it for free two days ago)...and 20 minutes later I walked out with a $53otd Mossberg bolt action 20 gauge model 195d-b. At the price he offered to give it to me I couldn't resist, it's clean operational but does need a magazine...

    Wanted to share a Piebald button buck we got running around!

    This little guy has been on our trail cams for some time now and I figured I'd share some pics with you guys. We've contacted every hunter we could think of in our hunting area to form a collective agreement to let him walk this year minimum. Some of them stated they'll try not to shoot...

    So I was at Walmart earlier tonight and low and behold it's one of the few that guns are coming back to...and that my friends is when this happened: -Me, standing at the shotgun stand turning it slowly looking at the prices, more or less just out of curiosity...you know trying to itch that itch...

    May be getting my hands on one of those H&R 410/45lc single shots from a buddy who bought and never uses (stealing it for the $ it's gonna run me). My quesiton is for those who have a 45LC in a rifle set up, what factory loads would you say would be best for deer or what loads have you seen...

    Practicality....deciding what to do with purchase?

    Okay guys so here's the question? I understand some of you have the ability to simply have a mass collection of firearms, to an extant this may not apply to you much, but roll with me for a second still. I recently bought an SKS, not much of a practical purpose because I'll never use it to...

    T/C Impact sight in and review

    Okay, I posted what seems like forever ago that I decided to buy the new affordable Thompson Center 50cal Impact for the days I actually decide to trek into the woods with a gun and not my bow. I finally got to shoot it yesterday. I'll admit this isn't typical of me but I used no bore sight...

    PF9 slowly becoming a fan

    So I entered the realm of small CCW a couple months ago with the purchase of my PF9 from my lgs. First thing I did was put the hogue jr slip on it as well as get a pinky extension on the magazine. Quickly put a box of 50 rounds through it with if I remember right one feed problem but otherwise...

    College to stop playing National Anthem

    Just thought everyone might get a kick out of the stupidity of Goshen College, located in Goshen, IN. They are a private school who are pacifist and in their latest move towards backing that "belief" the National Anthem will no longer be played anywhere on campus...ie all athletics or other...

    Maverick Bolt-Actions

    Okay, I've had great luck with Mossberg/Maverick shotguns..but rifles? I've heard good and bad about their rifles. Anyone here have one? Any good? I'm looking at picking up one of their .243 Maverick bolt-actions for coyote and possibly deer if I ever go somewhere that allows rifles. Did you...

    New to me PF9...

    Purchased a PF9 this past week at my LGS (also got a hogue grip for it...based on many people stating it helps alot). I absolutely love this guns feeling, now that the hogue is on it, it melts into my hand and just feels like part of my body. It's slim form allows for pocket carry (big pockets...

    Scope discussion for muzzleloader...

    So I'm finally deciding to go away from the walmart specials in scopes and get a decent one for my T/C Impact (I've always been fine with the $40 specials, shot 2 inch groups at 100yards with old Traditions 209). But I decided to spoil the Impact more than I usually do. Now if I was going to...
