    Stevens Favorite .25 cal Single Shot Rifle

    Stevens Favorite .25 cal Single Shot Rifle - Pic Added I have a rifle I'm curious to know what it's age might be. Also curious as to a value but that's really not my primary goal. From what I've read, it's difficult to determine much about these. The condition is not LNIB. :D The barrel is...

    Question about the legality of Airsoft "type" Guns

    Walmart, and other stores, sell airsoft guns that are semi-auto and full-auto that use co2 cartridges. If someone were to, hypothetically, take some PVC and build something that would shoot airsoft pellets using compressed air, would that be a problem? This hypothetical device would not have a...

    Penn & Teller - Split a Bullet on a Butter Knife

    I saw part of Penn and Teller Tell a Lie the other night but fell asleep before the end. :rolleyes: I don't know if this was the lie or not. Based on the video, and Bill Davis' reaction, looks real. Prior to the butter knife, they did it with a samurai sword, not much of a stretch there...

    Shot In My First Steel Competition 5/7/11

    My daughter and I went to the steel match at the Hernando Sportsman's Club last Saturday. We were shooting in the Open Rimfire Pistol class with my Ruger Mark III with a Tru-Glo Red Dot sight.

    Machine Gun Shoot

    A local gun club had a machine gun shoot today. I have never been to anything like this, I am really glad I decided to check it out. It was held on their 200yd range. The shooting line was probably 100 yds wide and it was FULL. 4 vehicles, numerous propane tanks and fire extinguishers, bowling...

    Question about .22 ammo

    I bought myself a birthday present yesterday, a Ruger Mark III 60th Anniversary Edition. :D I bought a 550 box of Remington .22 LR at WM for $18, another :D. I shot about 75 rounds through it, I'm going to enjoy getting to play with this. I had two FTF's, figured it was just the cheap ammo...

    Sig P238 bites casing but doesn't jam??

    Picked up a new P238 yesterday. Shot 100 rounds through it. Twice, on the last round in the mag, the casing did not eject completely, but the slide locked open. I found two of these on the bench. I don't know if these were the two that did not eject cleanly. Seems unlikely. I don't know how it...
