    Bore Snake - Dry, or...?

    i just bought one and i've been told these can be used dry or with a solvent of some sort. seems like dry wouldn't do much. so i'm asking here - those of you who do use one, do you put something on it, or not?

    Possible future purchase(?) gold cup trophy

    i found a used colt 1911, serial number gct003xx, blued for 875.00. slide felt a little loose, as seems typical of the colts i've handled. does the low serial number make it a good bet, or not so much? i'm not sure when the gcts were first produced - 1999? also, does anyone have an opinion of...

    SA 1911 Loaded: fixed versus adjustable

    i'm talking sights. the difference in cost is substantial (more than 150.00). is there a big advantage to having adjustable sights? will fixed sights be greatly advantageous for idpa? or would it be better to just stick with the 9mm cz75 for idpa? the springfield loaded would never be a gun...

    surplus and/or C&R purchase suggestions

    hi, just thought i'd dive right in and start a thread as my first post. thanks for letting me join in! i'm interested in purchasing one of the following: p38, cz52, cz82 or a makarov. i wouldn't mind owning all of them eventually. i might be purchasing online, sight unseen, which makes me a...
