    I have an early T/C Contender with a .22lr barrel and a Pachmayer grip. The action will not open, nor will the sear catch the hammer. Any hints?

    Keltec P15

    Keltec discontinued the old P11, and has replaced it with the P15. New gun is striker fired, holds 12 in "compact" mode, 15 with larger mag. Weighs about the same as the old P11. The gun has a grip safety, rather than the ever-popular trigger dingus. Tritium/fiber optic sights.

    Rossi .32

    Tomorrow I pick up my first .32 long revolver from the FFL. I have always wanted. .32 long, but just never got around to buying one. That changed a couple of weeks ago when I found this one on an auction site. This is not the usual "J" frame sized Rossi, but a pre-1968 gun that is very close...

    1911 bushing in Series 70?

    I have a relative that is having a hard time dis/re assembling his Series 70 Colt 1911 a1 with the collet barrel bushing. Can I swap a standard bushing into the gun, or is his barrel oversize? I don't have it here to compare, and I need to order a barrel bushing for him if it's a direct swap...

    Has anyone used Proxibid for a gun purchase?

    I won a handgun auction today and got an invoice for the sale. On the invoice it states they will not do shipping-it must be arranged by the buyer! You would think they would make this plain BEFORE you bid. I certainly didn't notice it. How in the world would one "arrange" shipping? The only...

    Has the NRA done this to you?

    I looked at my bank account tonight and saw "NRA membership $40. " I have been a member for a long time, and I usually renew for myself, my wife and my daughter every year about this time. But I have NOT given them permission to charge my credit card or bank account. Tomorrow, I'm going to...

    Using mini shell in the 870

    I have an 870 and a Chinese 870 clone. Will they handle mini shells/and if not, is there a mod to allow them to shoot them? I know about the Opsol for the Mossberg. Is there something similar for the Remington? Thanks in advance.

    Better SBS pistol pictures

    Took some better pictures of the SBS that i built. 20 Ga. 16" overall, 10" barrels. The only thing I didn't do is the checkering on the pistol grip. I cut the barrels, filled the rib void, installed the sight, made the pistol grip, engraved the action, engraved my maker info, nickel plated the...

    New shotgun!

    We are remodeling and cleaning out my deceased mother in law's house. We knew she kept a 3" Rossi .38 handy, and we were quite sure it was her only gun. My wife was cleaning out the last closet, and found a like-new Savage 242 over/under .410! It was loaded in the closet.

    Time to finish this one!

    This Remington Model 6 .22 was my dad's first gun. I destroyed the finish when I was a teenager, so in 1989 I decided it needed a little prettying up. Got it about half finished, and life got in the way of the project. The receiver will be silver plated, barrel rust blued, not sure about the...

    New grips

    I decided my little Bauer .25 needed a set of fancy grips, so I made up some laminated abalone stocks for it. I think they go well with the polished slide and small parts.

    Hand loading shotgun shells

    Having never reloaded a shotgun shell in my life, I find myself with the need to do so on a limited basis. I need to produce some lower-velocity buckshot loads for my 20 ga. 10" barreled pistol. Can I use a Lee Loader to reload plastic shells? I know it's slow, but I only need a few rounds...

    "Carry Rotation"

    I see this term a lot lately. Please take this advice in the spirit in which it is given-from a very experienced carrier. If you have a "carry rotation," it darned well better be 2 of the same gun, or models that are extremely similar. I know you guys are very serious about carrying to protect...

    Polymer AR lowers

    Even though I have a couple of AR 15s, I'm not much of an AR guy. I'm thinking about buying an 80% receiver to replace one of my AR receivers. While I have the equipment to mill the aluminum receiver, I have been toying with the idea of getting a polymer lower. Am I insane? Wait- don't answer...
