I've been looking at the American Spirit Arms Super Mount, Rock River Arms, Armalite, and Wilson Lo-Mount Tactical one piece mounts. Does anyone have any experience with any of these? They all look very solid. If eye relief isn't an issue, can you go wrong with any of these? I'm going to put a...

I just bought a Mark XIX in .44 Mag so I'm still having the guy who reloads for me experiment with different powders. What is the cleanest burning powder you've used for this weapon? The problem I'm having is that the ammo functions for the first 50 rounds or so and then the slide starts to fail...

I bought a box of 9mm and 45 acp. I'm concerned with the 45 ammo because it looks like there's some type of media around the primers. Has anyone else seen this? Also, the 45 ammo doesn't have the red sealant winchester usually puts aroung their primers, the 9mm had the sealant. Any thoughts? I...

I was trying to shoot a CCI shotshell thru my S&W 625. First I tried shooting it without a moon clip and the round didn't go off. I inspected the round and the firing pin had not struck the primer. I then fired it with a moon clip and this time it went bang. I tried to open the cylinder and it...

I purchased a holster from Dillon made by Kramer for my S&W 625. I also purchased a really good belt at the same time. It's called the Wilderness Tactical belt. Both the belt and holster provide the best support and fit I've ever experienced as far as how the gun is held and the rigidness it...

How important is it to clean the black rings INSIDE the cylinder of revolvers (by were the case and bullet meet) and what is the most efficient way to do this? I'm also having a hard time cleaning the same black ring you get on the forcing cone. How important is that and what's the best method...

I'll soon be picking up my 625 and I need to buy some accesories. Are all moonclips created equal? Is one brand better than another? Same question on demooners? Is the California Comp Works brand any good?

I'm about to buy a S&W 625. I'm not going to ccw. Mostly for target shooting, home protection. I'm leaning towards the 5". Any good reasons to get a 4" instead?

Hi all! I'm going to start hunting this year. Pig is something that interests me but I don't really know if I'm going to like the meat, etc (don't really want to hunt something that big that I'm not going to eat). I don't want to invest money on a new rifle and scope until I find out if it's...

I'm thinking of using a cordless drill for cleaning handgun bores. I would attach a rod and bronze brush and use some type of solvent of course. What do you guys think? Will this damage the bore, specially the rifling in any way? I'm just tired of spending so much time on cleaning the bore. I'm...

What is better for self defense: a hollowpoint that stays together or one that the jacket separates from the bullet?

At what distance from the shooter are most IDPA targets set at? If they vary, what's the range? Thank you for any info!

Which bore cleaner works the best? It seems that I'm unsatisfied with all the bore cleaners I've tried. I've found elbow grease to be the only remedy. Does anyone else have this experience? I've tried Hopes, Sweet's, Outers, etc. By the way, I only shoot copper jacketed bullets. Thanks!

I'm looking at the Weatherby, Remington, and Winchester. I don't want to spend more than $800. It will be in 30-06 for hunting various game.

We've all heard how ss is more brittle than carbon steel, but ss is more corrosion resistant, etc. I'm just wondering if anyone has had any experience or witnessed any metal outlast another. For example, will a ss revolver or auto crack/bend (or whatever) before a carbon one feeding them both...

I've never owned or shot one. How's the workmanship on Davis Derringers? Are they accurate? (I know they're not for target shooting) Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Who do you think makes the best revolvers and why? Please set aside cost and any prejudism (ala S&W)! Thanks!

Has anyone had any experience with the new Remington (710?)? It's the one that comes with the scope for about $400. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I know the factory doesn't recommend this but is it safe to convert a Glock 22 to 357 sig by just switching the barrel? Should the recoil spring be changed as well? Have any of you done this? Who makes the best barrels for Glocks? Thanks for any info you can provide.
