    XCR questions

    Anybody here on TFL have an XCR or experience with one? Just curious to know your thoughts on the rifle, general opinion, likes/dislikes, would you buy again, those sorts of questions. I'm toying with the idea of getting one in 6.5 Grendel, I have no real purpose for the rifle, just like...

    Erma Luger

    Gunbroker is a pretty dangerous website, if you don't have pretty good self control, I'd advise you to avoid that place. I already had a Stoeger .22 Luger, but I got to reading about the Erma .22's, and decided I "needed" one. The earlier .22 Luger copies, the LA-22 and EP-22 are primarily...

    ARX 100

    I started a thread a while back about this, but that thread didn't turn out too well. So, lets try again. Anyone have experience with the Beretta now that its been out for a while?

    How many

    rounds do you shoot before you call your gun reliable? I read a post on another forum that basically said 80,000 is how many it took for your gun to be claimed "reliable". That number is ludicrous, and I think it must have been a hastily written math error on his part, but it got me wondering...

    ARX 100

    I've seen the MAC review, but has anyone here tried them out yet? I figure this gun will have a pretty rough start, the polymer construction, issues with mags, and the fact that it isn't an AR. On top of all that its somewhat pricey. So anyone have experience with these yet?

    Tell me about Lugers

    I did a little bit of reading the other night, and from what I gather Stoeger still owns the name "Luger", but doesn't currently produce or import anything under that name. I also read some about Aimco, or Mitchell Lugers, but these aren't being built anymore either correct?

    What range...

    Do you typically shoot your .22 rifles at? I guess I'm looking for some sort of goal to work towards in distance and accuracy. I am using iron sights currently, and don't really have any plans on scoping my .22.

    Spotting Scopes

    I bought a cheap simmons 20-60 spotting scope a while back, and have difficulty seeing the holes in the targets past 75 yards(yes I am hitting the target, juts usually have to walk out to check it). I'm looking for suggestions for a decent scope, what are you using?

    1911 Grips

    I'm looking for government size 1911 grips, double diamond, or checkered wood, not too particular on what kind of wood, but I'd like to have either Marine Corps medallions, or the Vietnam service ribbon medallions like the ones in American Rifleman's March catalog, any idea where I could get...

    S&W 909

    A 909 in pretty good shape showed up at the pawn shop the other day, and I'm trying to talk myself out of buying it. I tried looking them up on gunbroker to get an idea of what they go for but I couldn't find anything. Anyone have experience/opinions on these?

    8MM Mauser

    My K98 Mauser just got back from the gunsmith after a rebarrel, and I'm looking for some reasonably inexpensive ammo to feed it. Any suggestions? The two prospects I found were Sellier & Bellot, and PPU, anyone have experience with these? Thanks for any replies.

    Anyone make

    A Vietnam era M16 lookalike? Basically what I'd want is the fixed carry handle triangular handguard and as light as possible. If no one makes a complete rifle I assume I could build one myself?

    Grip Safeties

    What are your thoughts on grip safeties? Like, hate, don't care? I know the XD's have grip safeties, but are there any other current production handguns(barring 1911's) with them?

    Mauser question

    I've got this old K98 Mauser that looks like the barrel was never cleaned, its basically a smooth bore(or rough bore). I'd like to get it in shooting condition again. I recall reading somewhere about a barrel sleeve someone put in their Mauser, is this feasible at all? Or shy of just getting...

    Marlin 80-DL

    I recently pulled one of these out of a dark corner where it had been hiding for I'm not sure how many years. Has some rust, and its missing the magazine, but it seems like a solid little rifle and I've taken a bit of a fancy to it. Anyone have any experience with these or know where I might...

    Pocket Hammerless

    I'd had a Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless on my to buy list for quite a while, I was looking more for a .380 than the .32, but when this showed up at the pawn shop I jumped at the opportunity. I've only been able to shoot it once, but I was pleasantly surprised at how soft shooting it was, more...
