So, the wifey got me a High Standard pump shotgun for Christmas. It is branded Model 20. Am I correct that in assuming this was a version of the 200 made by High Standard for a store brand somewhere? Gun points great. Can't wait to shoot it.

I found a Model 59 at the local pawn shop for a pretty good price. However, the gun is sporting a set of worn (and ugly) Pachmary grips. Midway lists a set of factory S&W grips (#852351) that fit a whole bunch of different 59xx guns but don't specifically say 59. Does anyone know if they...

I was browsing the local pawn shop the other day. And lucked into a mid 60s Wingmaster 12 ga in really good shape. For what could only be described as a steal. The only problem is being an older 870, it had the full choked barrel and that was it. I saw on Brownells an aftermarket Carlson...

Will a Sten Mk II loader function with Sten Mk III magazines? As a follow up, how much difference is there between the different Mk magazines? Thank you.

I came into possession of a A-5 Magnum with the long 28" barrel. I'd like something a bit shorter to improve handiness in the field. My question is does anyone know if there was ever a barrel threaded for screw in choke tubes made for this gun?

I walked out of a pawn shop with an Uzi Eagle in .40 S&W on a lark. Good shooting gun. I am a bit befuddled by the magazines. Kahr lists several different types of Uzi Eagle/941/Jericho handguns and some places pay you can interchange the mags with Tanfoglio magazines. I'd like to order some...

I have a Colt M-1991A1 that was a great shooter with it's factory barrel. After a squib load, I started a search for another barrel. I ordered a Wilson and have nothing but issues with it, even after sending it to the factory and having "it reamed to spec" according to them. So, other than...

A cool thing about working at the local pawn and gun is that on occasion you find something real cheap that you just snag for the hell of it. I got a Savage Axis in .30-06 for stupid cheap. So, I'm planning on putting it in a Boyd's stock and putting a .35 Whelen barrel on it post wedding...

Looking at making a used hand gun purchase with my tax returns. Is there any substantial performance difference between the P-90 and the later P-345? I'm skewing towards the P-345 because of the rail. However, online reviews lead me to believe that the P-90 is on par with the SiG P-220...

I recently purchased a Wilson match grade barrel for my Colt M-1991A1. Install required a little polishing to fit, but the Wilson manual said that might be needed. However, the gun now refuses to chamber anything. No Winchester, UMC, or Federal factory loads. Nor any reloads. The only time it...

I recently got a Ruger LCP for pocket carry. Everything I've read has said FMJ is the way to go in .380 pistols. Is there any real difference, other than cost, between Sig 100 grn and Federal 95 grn ammo?

I'm piecing together a .300 Blk carbine build. I saw a Sig Romeo 5 compact red dot at Cabelas. The price in store ($200) was decent and optics planet had it at $172. I have never used Sig optics. I was wondering if y'all had any thoughts or opinions. Thanks.

No zombies this year?

A bit of a detailed request for information here. Anyone ever user the MecGar mags for the Ruger P- series pistols? If so, any feedback? I'm hesitant to buy them from Brownells without doing a function check but they are substantially cheaper than Ruger factory mags with additional capacity...

So, I took my .50 caliber ammo can that is labeled "turkey loads" to the bank and consolidate all the coins and paper script into 15 c notes and ventured up to Atlanta. Had lunch at Hooters with a couple of beers to fortify my courage. And then met one of the Ladyfriend's sorority sisters at...

I'm looking for suggestions on an all-weather (stainless barrel/action and composite stock) bolt action rifle in .30-06 Gov't. I'm looking to spend $500(not including optics) or so on said rifle. Primary use will be hunting.

The LGS has a fairly well done Springfield '03 sporter. Nice wood stock, slightly shortened barrel. Well done scope rings. However, it's chambered in .300 Win Mag which is scaring me a bit. Can the old '03 action handle modern .300 Win Mag loadings? Also, being unversed in Springfield...

So, I've been stretching the legs of my new to me Model 66-2. And I thoroughly enjoy it. However, I'm not a fan of the rear target sight. Anybody have good suggestions for a replacement? Is it even feasible? I generally shoot the "FBI Load" .38 Specials or 158 gran SJSP .357 loads. I...

So, I'm wanting to branch out my collection some. I have a Winchester 1400, Remington Sportsman 58, Remington 1100, and a Belgium Browning A-5. Are there any other American designed autoloaders I should have in my collection? I like guns from the turn of the 20th century up to the mid-1970s...

Due to the clamor over the proposed M855 ban, I dug pretty deep into the LEOPA of 1985 in an effort to best explain it a Fraternity brother who is dating one of the aide's of my senator. That led me down the rabbit hole of various firearms regulations. I'm a younger guy (born in '88) and came...
