    Guys, does any one know of a lightweight free floating full length handguard for a LR308 with a bull barrel. I got a great deal on this rifle and am looking to shave weight off it. Thanks

    Boar hunting in Tenn.

    Okay guys, need your advice. Several of us are planning a boar hunt in Tennessee in October. My plan is to take my .308 bolt action to use, but I want to have a sidearm for closer ranges. I own a Taurus Gaucho in .45LC and am wondering if there is a load that would be useful in this caliber...

    New (to me) CETME

    Okay guys, I had been eyeballing a CETME at my local shop for a couple of months. A couple of weeks ago I bought it. It is a Century and has been previously owned. I got it out to the range and ran several different ammos through it (about 50 rounds) without failure and with very good...

    Okay guys, I need your help again. I have a '70 series Government Model that I have had since '92. I bought it used, it came with a set of sights on it that I don't believe are factory. The front has an orange blade, and the rear has a (for lack of a better term) "U" shaped white outline in...

    1911 series 80 safety

    I know this is going to sound foolish, but, what will happen if the firing pin safety "post" is removed from a 80 series pistol? My 70 series doesn't have one, obviously, but it was designed without one, will removing it from an 80 series cause any problems, either safety wise or operationally...

    Colt Defender

    Okay, I need you guys, to give me an idea what may be going on with my Defender. I had a new trigger and a magwell installed on it about a week ago. I only got the chance to take it to the range today, when I loaded it and pulled the trigger, nothing happened, no bang. I manually cycled the...

    training schools

    If this subject has been covered, I'll appoligize now, but I seached and didn't really find anything to cover my question. Is there a list on here that has, lets say, the top 5 or 10 practical training schools? Places like, Thunder Ranch, Blackwater, Frontsite. I'm in Kentucky, and may be...

    Colt Defender Trigger

    Okay, I need some help. I bought a Colt defender today, and got a great price on it. Anyway, the only thing I don't particularly care for is the plastic trigger. Call me old fashioned, I think a trigger should always be metal. So here are my questions. Does the defender take a standard 1911...

    left handed 1911

    I'm fairly new around here, so I appologize if this has been asked before. Recently, someone suggested to me to try to shoot left handed. I had hand surgery years ago and its definately has effected my grip. I didn't realize how much until I shot my Taurus .40 left handed. I actually shot...
