    Glock 20: what aftermarket barrel do ya suggest?

    Man, it's been a loooong time since I've posted here! Until recently I hadn't reloaded anything in about 6 years, but I recently came to own a Gen 4 Glock 20, and would like to get back into the reloading hobby for it. Is there any sort of consensus as to what aftermarket barrel to buy? I...

    Installing a front night sight on Mossberg 500....

    New Wilson Combat CQB. Did I go overboard?

    LOL, the answer is, "no friggin' way." This thing is gorgeous and shoots like a dream. Just picked her up Friday night and shot 100 rounds today. A little shameless look-at-me thread. :D Forgive me!

    Is Desert Eagle "in" with Walther on the P99-AS? (pic)

    I found a gun that looks and functions EXACTLY like a Walther P99-AS. It would be a blantant patent infringement if they are separate. I want a Walther P99-AS but this Baby Desert Eagle is NIB for $580 and I will certainly buy it if they're together and it's the same gun. If you KNOW whether...

    *sigh* Which 9mm should I get next?

    Hey gang. :) I've had a few bucks in my pocket lately that's just itchin' to get out. I'm thinking I need (LOL, yeah right) a new 9mm. Not really looking to fill a given role; more just a fun range gun that may eventually serve as a console gun in my truck. It won't be for CCW so a full-size...

    HK USP Tactical: what is this thing?

    Found this pic somewhere on the net and I'm curious what that dealio is on the muzzle. Obviously not a suppressor, I'm guessing it's just some sort of "fighting bezel" to make his Tactical more Tacticooool. ;) Kinda neat looking, though.

    S&W 625-10: what do you think?

    Always wanted a .45acp snubbed revolver. Found a NIB 625-10 in a local gunshopmaked at $975. I've dealt with him before and am sure he'd come down to $900 for a cash deal. Good buy at that price? Seems many online are selling for well over $1000. Thanks. :)

    Do you clean a gun before selling it?

    Every gun I have ever sold had me hovering over it for a half hour, cleaning it with patches and Q-tips, oiling the barrel and slide rails and just polishing it up in general. I wanted the buyer to be impressed when he field stripped it and couldn't get dirt on the patch, no matter where he...

    For those who send ammo via UPS.....

    I've never done it before. I have a 10 lb. box to send. I'll need an ORM-D sticker, I know. How much should I expect shipping to be? I'm sending it about 600 miles, a couple of states away. $25 be enough?? Thanks. :)

    Can't turn the elevation screw?

    I just bought a Kimber .22lr conversion kit for my 1911 and cannot turn the elevation adjustment screw at all. I can turn the windage one just fine. There is nothing at all mentioned about it in the instructions. Any ideas??

    Probably an easy question for the AK crowd.....

    Howdy again gang. :) I'm a handgun guy, so my rifle skills are rusty at best. I have a 30-yard range at which I shoot and today I tested out a semi-auto AK clone for a friend who just bought it. He wants it set accurate at 100 yards, but with my range limitations at 30 yards, I had only...

    Do people really think you must Overnight UPS a gun to an FFL?

    That it is ILLEGAL to not Overnight a gun via UPS to an FFL or manufacturer is one of the most parroted lines of ignorance on the interwebbery today. :rolleyes: You, as a private citizen, can legally send a handgun via Ground UPS shipping to an FFL licensee. Yes, yes, you are breaking UPS'...

    Good red dot for a Ruger MKIII?

    Hey gang. :) I'm looking for a quality red dot scope for my Ruger MKIII. This will be used in low light conditions at 25 yards or closer (dispatching coons and 'possums). I have $80 to spend. What do you suggest? Thank you! :D

    Any bad batches of H&K USP .45acp?

    Hey gang. I'm considering a trade for an HK USP in .45acp that he thinks was made in the late 1990s. Does anyone here know of any problems associated with guns made during that time or problems with that model in general? When did they first offer this model? Thanks a bunch! ;)

    Can I use lead bullets in my Marlin 1895?

    Hi gang. I have a Marlin 1895 in .357magnum and would like to use lead bullets in it, but only if it's safe to do so. I'd be using Laser-Cast 158g LRN bullets if that factors in. :) Thanks a lot folks!

    Beretta 92FS Inox rear sight removal

    Holy heck, the thing is IN there! I'm used to doing this on Glocks, where all I need is a punch and hammer, but this is in a totally different league. I've gotten advice that I need to disassemble (remove) the safety levers first, and that somehow will release pressure on the sight to the...
