    Chinese Mausers? Any good?

    So I just called the local gun shop and asked them if they have any Mausers in stock (since my girlfriend said that she'd buy me one for our anniversary. :D I got a good one, fellas!), and he said that he had one Chinese Mauser in stock. Now call me stupid (please don't, really...;) ), but...

    Stupid 1911 owner

    Hey all, I have a colt 1991-a1, and I have no problem field stripping it for standard maintenance, but I have finally made up my mind that I need to really tear it apart and give it a good scrub-down. I was wondering if there was anywhere online where I could get a good pictoral guide for this...

    Some Ruger disassembly instructions?

    Hey all, I have three Rugers (a Slab-side Mk II, a P89DC, and a 10/22), and I would like instructions for detail stripping them. I am talking about disassembling the trigger groups, firing pin assembly on the P89, etc. I can field strip them fine, but I'd like to learn more about the trigger...

    A new Ruger toy!

    Hey all, I work at a Gander Mountain store, and we had our associate family shopping nite tonight, which entails the store being closed to the public, and all of the employees get to buy things at big discounts. For the first time ever, they decided to give us 10% off on new guns, so I took...

    Para-Ordnance P1445 opinions

    Well, I just came across some unexpected money, and I have the opportunity to buy a stainless nib para ordnance p1445 for $585. So tell me, is this a good deal? I've had a hankering for a 1911 for quite a while, and this seems to fit the bill. So, does anyone have any pros/cons for this gun...

    Crossdraw holsters?

    Hey all, I'm kinda looking around for a new holster for my P-89, and I've lately been interested in cross-draws. Anyone have any recommendations for any brands that make cross-draws for a P-89? Thanks, Parke1 ------------------ "Um, that's a muzzle loader. Only use that for protection if...

    Home carry?

    Ok, I have a feeling that not a whole lot do this, so I feel compelled to ask. How many of you that live in non-CCW states (like me here in OH) carry while on your property? I know that lots of members always keep a firearms nearby for home protection, but how many of you actually carry while...

    Well, I got a new toy

    Hi all, Earlier today I spotted a nice used gun that picqued my curiosity, and I wound up buying it (of course). I am the proud new owner of a Smith and Wesson (WWAAAYYYY pre-sellout, obviously) model 916 12 gauge. It's the plain 20" barrel model, with a 5-shot tube, and a front bead sight...

    My good gun deed for the day (longish).

    Well, I did something to be proud of today. I decided to spend some time at the local sporting goods/gun shop today, so I could drool over the goodies therein. I had spent about half an hour playing with various guns (mainly the Ruger GP100 that I've got my eye on) when I realized that I'd...

    Ok, I did it; I bought a new toy.

    Well, I couldn't hold out any longer, and I just had to buy myself a new toy. I mean, three months is WAY too long to go without buying a new gun, so I went out and got myself a Ruger 10/22 All Weather model. I've already put Weaver See-thru mounts on it, as well as a Bushnell 3-9x32 scope...

    Any updates on the situation in Hamilton county, Ohio???

    Well, August 11th has come and (almost) gone, but I have yet to hear anything about what happened in today's hearing regarding Ohioans' lack of pro-CCW laws. The last I knew, the judge that suspended the gun laws in Hamilton county was supposed to make a final decision today. Any word? Parke1

    Who carries in non-CCW states?

    Okay, since I live in a state where it's illegal to carry at all, this has been on my mind for a while. How many of you live in states where carrying is illegal, but still do? I realize that it could mean getting in to a lot of trouble, but when it comes down to it, I'd rather have it on me...

    Indoor shooting at home with a .22?

    Ok, I'm going to assume here for a second or two that I am not, in fact, out of my mind. At one time or another, I thought that I saw an ad in a magazine (Sportsman's Guide?) for this little steel box contraption that you could hang a target on, and shoot at with .22s. Has anyone else heard of...
