I love turkish firearms and i'm looking to add something to the handgun stable. I'll start by saying I have an XD service that i've done trigger work to and is very light although reset is garbage. Stock I'd consider the XD trigger to be pretty terrible. I shoot it occasionally but don't...

I'm obsessed with off hand pistol accuracy lately. What do I mean? Fist sized or smaller groups at 25yds and beyond in a slow fire environment. You know just shooting and not really self defense training as a whole(although it has crossed over). Some things that I think have helped me but may...

I'll start by saying i've never done an upper build and slightly confused on what i'll need and want to make sure I don't miss anything. .300 barrel Stripped upper BCG Rail Gas block/tube Ejection port cover Charging handle I have all the tools needed and have broken down my current upper a...

Have any of you noticed any trends in collecting firearms that would allow you to determine if something is going to increase in value or is it a crapshoot? I'm not talking about election panic AR's here. Classic firearms that outrun inflation or panic buying. Basically if you had a hefty...

So I've given my Beretta CX-4 the go ahead for a bedside rifle. Ive worked up blue dot loads with impressive results before(90gr 2090fps/124gr 1650fps). The blue dot performs very well in 9mm carbine and even outperforms +p+ at non +P pressure. First I live in a very pro 2nd state(FL)...

Why a 9mm? I cast and reload 9mm dirt cheap. Matching guns to ammo. Chronograph + custom 9mm loads from a rifle = fun. Option 1 Buy a gen 2 sub 2000 probably spend around $500-600. Ive owned a gen 1 and loved it but a guy made me a stupid offer to buy it at the rang and had to($850). Pro - it...

I was just wondering if its a pipe dream to find a versa max with a camo stock around 900 used? My Father in law said he would give me one of his other shotguns if I find him one under 1k ;). Basically has anyone found/bought one for around that price?

I was just wondering what a good group is offhand at 25yds..? I mean I know I shoot okay but just wondering where I stack up. Here's a typical 25yd group shot with a 4" Springfield XD service(5 shots)

I have a dedicated upstairs nightstand gun and usually have my CCW nearby otherwise. I get tired of having to go back upstairs and get the nightstand gun to put it away in the safe. I have considered using my CCW as a nightstand gun that way its always with me. I read that many people keep...

I was just curious what the average is. Overall value not price paid and guns only. Poll is private.

Anyone calculated if a .22lr is sighted in at 50yds what the point of impact is for each mildot at varying distances? assuming 1280fps 36gr bullet(wincehster 555 bulk) Basically if you sight in at 50yd you can use the lower mildots to shoot at 100 and get you close because of bullet drop and...

I can use slower powder(blue dot) for my 9mm rifle to achieve some impressive gains but could you do the same thing with .40? my 9mm loads through a sub 2000 124gr @ 1650fps 90gr @ 2090fps Both loads are non + p pressures but close(think 9mm nato).

I am researching a inexpensive AR build(first one). I know delton kits are good but the turn around time can be like 4 months which would probably make me a bit antsy. This is the kit http://www.del-ton.com/Rifle_Kit_p/rkt100.htm I found a complete M4 upper with tapco stock which I assume is...

In the days where tiny single stacked CCW's and comparing them by tenths of ounces... weight matters. Also double stacked guns carrying 15+ rounds where once again weight matters. Anyone else feel that this is easiest way to cut weight?

I think a .357 sig carbine would work great for our troops for urban situations but dont really have any data to back that up(couldn't find ballistic info on .357 sig rifles). I think it would be flatter shooting and more effective than .40. Its also a market that is untouched by other...

What have you found out there where you get a ton of gun for your money? Mine would be(off the top of my head) Keltec pistols(not a p11 fan though) Ati 92c Part for part clone of the Beretta 92 centurion and has great reviews(have one on the way:D). A little older of a deal but the Arcus...

First off I will say that my neighbor is a ex-marine semi-pro/pro MMA fighter. He is a very big guy and not what I would call a great guy. We are cordial and I try my best to keep it that way. Lets say someday He decides he hates me enough to to attack me. Not a situation where he asks to...

I got a deal on a Hungarian Mosin M44 for $75(go for 150+ around here) that I couldn't pass it up. I had a M38 that I liked but didn't have much opportunity to shoot it after I moved to south fl because only 1 local range is outdoors and 100yds(hate that range too). I am on a strict firearms...

I have been reading around and the common suggestion is 1000 rounds per caliber. In what situation can you see yourself shooting more than 50rds of ammo at at time without either yourself or the bad guy being dead? Assuming you are the good guy then the other guy had to have a gun and be...
