    Cast Frame 1911s...

    I hear MANY posters criticize certain 1911s because they have cast frames. I have not heard of anyone with a cast or forged frame crack one. If you are out there, post it. Number of rounds etc. I guess we might keep in mind that Browning CHOSE cast frames for the 40 SW, because they do...

    NEW RIA Tactical

    new RIA Tactical w/Gunner Green grips: She has a very good trigger - crisp and not too light. At the range, 75 rounds of BB 230gr ball without a hitch. was able to hold 7 rounds in 2 inches at 10 yards - and it wanted to throw round after round into 1 inch as I unloaded into a tgt. The...

    Chinese Air Rifles

    Seems like the TF and "X" rifles are nice, and copies of the European rifles. I would guess by owning an SKS, and seeing all kinds of Chinese knock-offs, that they don't have quite the finish of a European AR, but they'll likely shoot as accurately. Anyone have BOTH and can compare accuracy...

    SAFE basement .22 shooting

    I was shooting into magazines. Then I bought a steel bullet trap (thinking it was better). I saw the spattering, and the evaporating bullets and thought oooops! Can it be done safely? Do .22 rounds really give off lead fumes from the primers at the muzzle end? (Some on Rimfire Central claim...

    Fixing an off-center crown job???

    Saw a little 22 in a shop. VERY nice shape OTHER than it looks like someone used a high Speed drill bit to fix a crown, and got is a little off-center - more bare metal on one side of the crown than the other. Can this be fixed with a brass lap and hand drill???? Is it hard to do? (Its $75...

    STEVENS/Savage Model 46

    I saw one of these at a shop: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=117491498 It is marked Revelation 115, and no one seems to know anything about them. Anyone have ANY experience with them? Accuracy experience? Are they REALLY hard to disassemble for simple cleaning? How do they shoot...

    222 Magnum from 204 Ruger?

    I'm sure guys were 'making' 358 Winchester ammo from 308 brass, and 35 Whelen form 30-06 brass back in the day... So why NOT 222 mag from 204 Ruger???

    Sako Vixen

    Saw a little beauty today. Excellent condition, very light trigger - maybe a tad too light. With a cheapo scope. Bore looked great. BBUT.. in 222 mag. What is it worth? I guess 222 mag is pretty much cost prohibitive to shoot. Even the brass looks expensive IF one reloads. But a sweet...

    Win 74 - any good?

    Saw what I thought to be a pretty minty Win 74 today. Interesting gun. It looked to be in excellent condition. Bluing was deep and no rusting. Stock was not chipped or cracked - very nice, although it is varnished. Barrel looked perfect. Not as sleek as my Rem 552, but kinda neat. What is it...

    surface rusting

    What is the BEST way to remove light surface rust form a rifle barrel (50 year old 22)? It is really only blatant in bright sunlight, but it is there. Thanks.

    How do you like your BERSA CC 380???

    Took a look at one today. Lightweight, VERY good trigger in both SA and DA, defanged, small enough for good carry, but still feels good in the hand. What is NOT to like about this gun? Seems better than a PPK or maybe even a Mak to me.

    Mossberg 151M

    What is wrong with the Taurus PT99???

    Saw one in a local shoip today - way overpriced (over $500), but that is how this shop operates. The 99 looked great - nice finish, tight lockup, pretty tight slide to fram fit. It decocks OR can be carried C/L. The DA trigger was long, but quite smooth, and the SA was a tad heavy but TOTALLY...

    Star PD Advice

    $300, Holster wear on the edges, about 90% finish. Barrel looks good, crown fine, shokbuff looks new/thick. Grips are ruined (sanded down), sight screw a little buggered. Feed ramp looks a bit rough (not shiny) to me, but I know they are Aluminum and beat up quickly. Still a tiny...
