Is there any word/rumor as to if Henry will be offering their .357 (and .44) rifles with the side loading gate (and tube option) too?

I recently picked up a Sig 365 for EDC. I carry Speer GD 124gr +P in my G19s but I think I want to explore non +P options for the 365. That would eliminate the Speer GD Short Barrel ammo. I see a lot of people recommend the 124gr HST, but not sure if that applies to shorter barrels...

I tried the lever gun thing and just don't like the action (I know that is heresy to some) for a few reasons. Stumbled upon a pump .357...

I've heard great things about Sako rifles and really like the specs on paper (barrel length (20"), irons, detachable mag) of their Black Bear: http://www.sako.fi/rifles/sako-85/85-black-bear However, buying one would be sight unseen as I've never come across one in a store Yesterday, I got my...

Been thinking about getting out of ARs for awhile (although now is not the best time because prices are so low). They really don't do anything for me and I may need room in the safe. That being said, I have a lot of .223/5.56 ammo and some 10 round AR mags. What I'm trying to decide is if I...

Turning 5-0 in the next 2 months and would like to get myself something that is missing from my collection - a nice bolt gun in a medium caliber. My criteria are: Caliber: .308 or 7mm-08. 6.5x55 Swede (and other 6.5 calibers) was considered but smaller than I'd like. .308 about as high on...

Came across one at a local shop and know nothing about it. Google-fu didn't turn much up either (mostly seeing info on the 1201). Short barrel (18-20" I believe). Rifle sights. I'm assuming an inertia gun. Are they a pre-decendant of the M2? Any thoughts on current value or parts compatibility...

My situation is I'm hosting a skeet/trap shooting birthday outing and while most of those attending have shot rifles and pistols, most haven't shot skeet/trap, and those that have don't own shotguns geared for it. One guest has and will hopefully bring their 20g o/u for others to try...

I was looking at 590s this weekend and was toggling between the 2 sight options. I don''t want just a plain old bead. I seem to be gravitating towards the rifle sight option for quick pickup and longer range shots (50-100 yards) at the range. No special purpose other than a fun gun. Opinions...

I got to rent a few different pistols this weekend and discovered the great ergos of CZ pistols. I want one...........but can't figure out which one fits my needs from their website. Held a 75 Compact and it felt great but it had a safety (don't want) and controls only on left side (need them on...

I've had 2 ARs for a few years. I bought them because my thought was "I should have 1 (or 2)". I like the concept of their modularity and ability to change/add calibers....even though I've never done it. I've invested in a lot of ammo and magazines (bought the magazines because they're now...

In the market for a 5.56 (not just .223) bolt action rifle and am wondering if there are any that I'm not looking at. Currently, the ones that I know of that meet my criteria of: 5.56 1:9 twist (or faster) Iron sights Are: CZ 527 Mossberg MVP Scout/Patrol Ruger Gunsite Scout Am I missing any...

Up until this point, I standardized my collection of semis going with only 9mm. The reasons: ammo was cheaper and increased capacity (ex. G19) vs other calibers. Now I live in a state (CT) where I can only carry 10 rounds (I can keep my mags that hold > 10 rounds, just can't carry them). I...

Been trying to research bolt action rifles and there are tons out there. My criteria are: Either 30-06 or .308/7.62 Less than a 20 inch barrel (18 inch being most desired) Fixed magazine (read that they are better than detachable) Ideally have iron sights but not a must have. Less than $800. I...

I am in the process of crafting a letter to my senators and representatives to express my opinions on the impending anti-gun legislation that is bound to come their way. In doing so, I would like to include links to articles where armed citizens helped to thwart an armed attack, whether aimed...

Seeing one of my worst nightmare scenarios on the news yesterday (Oregon mall shooting) really has me thinking. I'll preface by saying that I read a Tom Clancy book a few years back (forget which one) and a part of it involved coordinated terrorist attacks (shooters) in shopping malls and it is...

I've been researching bolt action .223/5.56 rifles (Remington 700, CZ 527, Steyr Scout, Ruger M77) and have a few questions: Can you shoot 5.56 in a .223 bolt action rifle? I know you can't in a semi-auto (AR, Mini), but there seems to be some debate on bolt-actions. Why are some bolt action...

I'd love to be able to rent/try each of these before buying, but that's not going to be an option. My question to those to who have tried both: which has less felt recoil - a pump (SuperNova) with the ComforTech system (stock) or an inertia driven semi (M2) without the ComforTech system ? Both...

Finally shot a shotgun for the first time and definitely want a semi-auto 12 gauge. Shot the Saiga 12 with Winchester rifled slugs (2 3/4). I'd say the recoil was a 6 or7 on a scale of 1-10 (10 being horrific, 1 shot and done). How does the Benelli M2 (Tactical) recoil compare? I am considering...

Been out shopping for a new rifle and I'm pretty sure I want a semi-auto .308 (no bolt action or pump action). I've got about $700 to spend. That puts the Benelli R1 and Browning Lightweight Stalker out of my price range (plus the mags are ridiculously expensive). My first choice would be a...
