Is a Glock 17 barrel a drop in fit in a Glock 22, or would some fitting need to be done? Thinking about a 9mm barrel due to ammo costs and just for fun. Anyone try this?

If I have already resized my cases and run them thru the die again (after removing the lube) will they still get stuck? (Just thinking about ways to clean the lube off).

I brought this up in another thread but didn't get any response. If you had 2 of the same model gun would the "tighter" one get dirtier with the same number of rounds fired? Anyone have say a mil-spec and a Baer or Wilson who could shed some light on this?

What ammo does your department issue for the .223 / 5.56mm ? Do you know their reasons why (penetration, expansion, cost, ect.) Also is this for patrol, entry use, or both? Just curious, we always here about the handgun rounds issued but never the rifle rounds.

Handled one today at the gunstore and it felt really good in the hand. It was a lot trimmer than what I thought it would be. Have enough pistols for all my used already (or so my wife says). So tell me some bad stuff about these guns to talk me out it!

I know they are similar but different. Will weaver rings fit a picatinny rail? Thinking about putting a scope on my flat top Bushy AR for load testing.

In what order do you try new things when working up a new load. Say for instance you bought a rifle in a new caliber. You have many bullet weights (from many companies). You have 10-15 listed powders to try in weight variances of 5 to 10 grains (start to max.) 4 or 5 good primer brands...

Does anyone have any idea how close to home most civilian shootings happen? They always say most car wrecks are within 10 miles of your home, I just wondered what it was for self defence? What really got me thinking about this is all the times I have read "I'll just stuff a J frame...

how about a seperate section for movie guns, guns in movies, movie tactics ect. That way the real use of firearms could be talked about wotihout all the hollywood b.s. in the rest of the forums.

A few years ago these were all the rage. Now I never here about them. I'm planning to put an optic on my AR but can't make my mind up which one. C- mores use to be popular, now EOtech's and Aimpoints are. I know Aimpoints are mil-spec (read: durable). What are the other advantages/...

What would you guys pick for an AR? I have a Bushmaster 16" collapsible stock flat top that I'd like to put an optic on. My uses are: back up to the SG for HD, general fun/range work, maybe some 3 gun matches (won't win, but don't want to finish last either). Practical range 0 to 350...

If you had been carrying a SIG220 and were now allowed to carry a Glock (if you buy it) would you make the switch? My co. is in the process of allowing Glocks (any except the compact models). So what do you guys think?

I'm thinking about reloading for my AR and can't make up my mind on which dies to buy for my Dillon 550B. I'm sure Dillon's dies are good, but are they worth the price? I see others that say they cause very little case stretch (less trimming would be a good thing) don't know if these would...

How often do your departments buy new pistols? Just curious as to how old police trade-ins are. I know there are various reasons for departments to trade in guns and I'm sure the # of years varies a lot, but I've been curious.

Has anyone tried a guided hunt, if so what are your thoughts on it. I'm not talking about Africa or exotic hunts, but for normal North American hunting like whitetails, elk, boar ect. Is it worth the expense or is it just buying your venison. I've hunted small game with sucess but...

I'm looking for a stock for my project 98 Mauser. Need light weight, easy to inlet for a XS scout scope mount (already installed) over a steped barrel. Reasonably cheap (see no need to put a $500 McMillan on a $150 mil-surp). Any ideas?

Does anyone other than Heinie make their night sights with the front blade serrated? I'm going to be putting a set on my SIG 220 and prefer a serrated front sight and was trying to figure out all my options.

Has anyone here been to the NRA museum? What did you think of it? Is it worth a trip to go see or not?

Can some one tell me what year the FBI started using the Glock 23? Did they state any reasons for the switch, and/or have they made any comments about it's performance in the field. Do they still authorize and or issue it? (I'm trying to write a paper about why my security...

Currently carry a 220 at work and on my own time. Thinking of downsizing during hotter weather on my own time and was wanting opinions between these two. The 245 is a little bigger but uses the same ammo, the 239 (in 40) would be smaller but of a different caliber. On the other hand...
