    Hi-Point Popularity

    Good Afternoon All, Ok, yes, I said the nastiest word I could say on TFL...Hi-Point. I hope I don't get banned :) Recently, I have noticed that I can't find these darn things (in 9mm) anywhere. Yes, why do I want one? Curiosity for the most part. I want to try it cold, mod it a little and...

    Effective range for a red dot on 22 rifle

    Ok, I have the standard 4x scope on my .22. I hate it. I'm going to replace it with a red dot, but, as I thought about it, how far can you zero one out? Granted, a .22 isn't made to shoot 400 yds, but, I wanted to know how far y'all would feel comfortable.

    Cleaning/Wear questions

    Good Morning All, I was gifted a Westpoint .22 S/A. It's fairly old, but looks in good shape. I took it to the range a week ago, and it stovepiped every 3-4 shots. The spring felt strong, the extractor looks good and the tube feed was clear. However, every time you charged the weapon, it...

    Confused on Grading

    Hey All, I was snooping on Gunbroker, trying to get a value on my Bulgarian Makarov. Wow, does my head hurt. I saw weapons that looked like roadkill that people were trying to get $250 or more out of. Other sellers had "Very Good" or "Excellent" marked on condition, and they still looked...

    S&W 22a vs. Beretta U22 Neos

    Good Evening All, I'm considering one of these pistols, but, looking for comparison opinions. I've heard that the recoil buffers on the 22a need replacing on a regular basis. Does the NEOS use the same design? How is the NEOS breakdown compare to the 22a one button barrel removal? I know...

    Proud of my Family

    Good Afternoon Everyone, I took my family (Wife, 23 yr old daughter, 12 yr old son) to the range for the first time on Saturday, 7/2. To preface, fun was had by all, and they learned several valuable lessons. The night before we left, my wife told me that she's going to go, because it'd...
