    Another One

    Well I did it again. lol Another 1911. Funny how this happens to all of us 1911 guys. I put this one on layaway. The Story. I've been looking for a TRP and a TLE II at a decent price. I've also been taking a liking to the Range Officer model too. However I wished that the Range Officer...

    Vaquero Question

    Looks like the old man wants a Vaquero. He keeps eyeballing them while we're at the shop. I'm wondering which "flavor" to get him. So here are things to concider. 1. He's retired, he has arthritis in his shoulder so his shoulder is more felt recoil sensitive than it used to be 2. He grew...

    I got one finally

    So I finally got a Glock 27 like I've been saying I was going to do. Friend of mine at the local shop sold me one of the Glock 27 Gen 4s they got in. I already had an old Glock OWB holster somebody gave me and this week I went and bought a dual mag pouch and the Pierce +0 grip extension. But...

    Got A Question

    Ok here is the deal. The old man is nervous about me reloading in my room. I've stated that I'll be more than happy to buy another gun safe and store the stuff in there. However his concern is tracking some of the powder on the carpet. Probably thinking it's going to be a fire hazard or...

    A Different Question

    Ok so we commonly see "the top 5 or 10 most gun-unfriendly states in the US". What about the top 5 or 10 gun-friendly states? What states are they? I know one is Tennessee. Pretty nice gun laws. But what about the others?

    These Moments Do Try Me

    Ok. I'm getting this PT1911 ready for .45 Super. I dropped the 28# recoil spring kit in it only to find it will not cycle the slide far enough back toward the rear to activate the slide stop and short strokes it enough to make it fail to strip off a round from the magazine. It's a Wolff...

    Wow somehow I'm not buying this story

    Ok went to the range with my XD-40 last night for more fam fire. Needless to say, I think I got it down after I dropped the 19 lb Wolff spring in. 24 rounds and only one missed and even then it nicked the target. First 12 were pretty much surgical, next 12 were for rapid fire drill and that's...

    700 Project Question

    Ok, I'm wanting to build a Remington 700 in .300 Win Mag Seems like people do build 700s but very little info as to how. What do I need to build it? Are there any "How tos" like there are with other rifles. Brownells had a how to but it was ill informing because it only centered on need to...

    Kimber Question

    Ok I got this sweet thing on layaway at the local shop. Dude says if I can remember correctly that this 4 inch lil sweet thing is made of Titanium. I dunno if that's true or if I heard him right as I was staring at it in my hand contemplating if I should go for it or something like it (I know...

    Mk VII Desert Eagle Issues

    I just got this thing. Got a pretty good deal on it. Bore is like glass it's so smooth, sights need new tritium installed though. Anyway here is the issue at hand. When I fired my .44 Big Brother (That's it's new name, Big Daddy is my .460 magnum revolver) I noticed continual jams of the...
