    how hard to build a gun?

    Used 870 receiver, barrel, stock.... Can you just drop the parts together, or does the barrel need fitting, for instance?

    pumps that unlock after firing

    So, the guy at the range says the Mossies unlock for you, to start the cycling back, and that's one reason he likes them over the 870's. I says,"really? I didn't notice the 870 NOT doing that." Pumped it, (dry, of course!) held back on the pump, and pulled the trigger; sure enough, you have to...

    How many rounds per session?

    I kick out 20 rounds, and I'm done.... As my form improves, I'm sure I'll get more in, but don't think I'll ever get up to 2- 300 rounds like with my handgun. What's a goodly number for practice, say every other w/e?

    Remington semi for SD

    Which would make a better social autoloader, the 1100 or 11-70? Pros/cons? You can put extended tubes on these, right?

    Price check: Marine Magnum

    What's a good price for these puppies. Sounds like a few of us on here have one. I love the looks, and I'm sure the NW would give that finish a run for it's money! I see them for $530. Does that sound right? Thanks

    what model 870?

    I think I want a Wingmaster with 18" plain barrel and 7-shot ext. Do I have to buy the barrel and ext and put it on? Does Rem make this? Another way to put it is a Marine Magnum that's blue instead of nickel. Or a 4903 police blue instead of park. What's the easiest way to do this? Thanks for...

    shotgun smiths

    Who besides Vang and Scattergun Tech does good work? I'm sure there's lots who'll lengthen the forcing cone and backbore, but is Vang "the" guy to port your shotgun? youngun

    Ranger T coming back?

    I heard somewhere that many LE agencies are switching from Winchester to Speer Gold Dot. Could this mark the return of the Ranger SXT to the civie market? I can get a case of Gold Dots for $200. Is the Ranger worth much more than that?

    cut shotgun barrel

    Can you just hacksaw one of these suckers? Square, of course, and clean, but is there more to it?

    express sights

    Would it be silly to put express sights on a home defense gun? Some folks are loving them on their handguns, and say the only downside is they're less than match accurate. Not an issue with a riot gun. What do you all think?

    Billy Bob on SNL

    Did anyone see Billy Bob Thornton on SNL? He had on a hat with ".45s" embroidered across the top. Though it was pretty cool to see a suppressed bolt-action on Saturday Night Live, I was dissapointed to see him strutting down the street holding a BHP (?) with his finger strapped across the...

    wristwatch-bite

    I never shoot with my watch on. Till today. The little wind-up knob kinda digs. Anyone else notice that? What else am I doing different on the range than would be in real life? ....

    Where can I shoot?

    State parks, state forest, nat'l forest (I know nat'l parks are out)? I'm in OR, so if anyone around these parts has an idea of where I can do some target practice outdoors, please let me know. Otherwise, general rules/regulations would be helpful. I tried some searching on FL, but couldn't...

    Who makes an AR-10?

    Besides Armalite, of course. They're the only ones I can find so far. Surely there's others?

    ABC vs NBC

    OK, so we're still watching reruns, but seeing as next week starts the new season, it seems the networks are pulling out the heavy episodes to get folks geared up. Tonight, on NBC (the one who's ER season finally had a rampant gunner shot down by an illegal CCW, and then after demonizing the...

    k-frame anaconda

    ***? -you may ask. Well, I'm trying to figure a way to get an anaconda "for my wife," but she has these tiny hands. I know you can do a lot with aftermarket grips, but just how short can one make this trigger reach? Is this just not gonna happen? youngun

    "Article II" ?

    Seems like just in the last ten or thirty years, folks are now referring to Article II of the Bill of Rights, as "the second amendment." I'm not so sure this is casual. Amendments can and have been repealed. The Bill of Rights was a prerequisite for getting the Constitution ratified, and as...

    python/king cobra?

    Could some of you Colt afficienados please 'splain to me the differences between these two guns? I dry-fired a Python the other day, to disastrous ends (must have one!) and I see this King Cobra for half the price. Do they both (and the Anaconda, for that matter) have that same sweet, light...

    U.S. can't take credit for WWII

    How is it that we seem so quick to take credit for the liberation of europe, when very, very few of us were even alive, much less involved?
