Bought the rifle in .308 two days ago. Picked up two Weaver 35 bases and put a Nikon ProStaff 3-9x40 on it. When I took it to an indoor range to sight it in, it shot 1 inch high at 25 yards with the reticle screwed to the stop. Suggestions? Thanks! BTW, groups are one-hole, so I expect...

Searched and didn't find anything. Just went to the gun shop and bought a gun, first one in a few weeks. The guy hands me back the 4473 and has me check a new box as to whether I am Hispanic or not. Can someone tell me why that is being asked? Are Hispanics being treated differently? Thanks!

The government cannot PENALIZE me if I don't buy a product, but it can impose a TAX on me if I don't buy a product. Thus, if they don't want me to be a gunowner, they can't penalize me; they just impose any tax they want on me if I own guns, right? Do what we want, no tax. Don't obey, and...

Picked one up cheap yesterday. Manufactured in 1968, obviously well used, but the bore was good. I cleaned it last night and took it to a local indoor range. Only had 25 yards, but with iron sights on a rest it shot a less than quarter-sized group. I love it!

Beginning tomorrow our carry permits will again substitute for a NICS check. Many thanks to those who helped make this happen.

The store I frequent got one in on Monday and I held out until today. It just kept calling my name. I am a fan of big-bore snubs, can't wait to get this one to the range.:D

I know (from TSA website, packing.org, etc) what the rules are for carrying a firearm in checked baggage. I am taking a trip where I will need a holster at the destination, but am not checking a firearm and do not intend to check ANY baggage. Will TSA hassle me if I have an empty leather...

Stopped in at a local store after work to browse, saw a like-new .44 mag Bisley on consignment for $319. The gun is perfect in every way, and that sure seemed like a good price to me, so I grabbed it. Did I do good?:)

Saw it in the gunshop yesterday - Model 29 Hunter, 6", unfluted cylinder, hammer-mounted firing pin. No visible wear at all, very tight. Followed me home...;)

How is it done? Where should it be lubed? Thanks for any help.

I carefully considered all the posts on the .300 WSM both pro and con. I carefully considered my current stable of rifles, and whether the new caliber would fill any obvious gap. This process led to the conclusion that I really didn't need a WSM, so I bought one today anyway! I admit it - I'm...

For a semi-auto. Looking to put together some 220gr for Remington 7400. Anybody got a favorite?

I have all the info on CCW licensing, etc. My question is from a practical point of view. What are the places you are not allowed to carry, etc.? What is the attitude of the local cops? Any info appreciated! H

The owner of the land I lease is cutting the mature timber. Not a clear-cut, just thinning. What effect will this have on the deer population/habits? Will it improve or screw up hunting? Thanks, Hawkman

Fondled it yesterday afternoon, went back today and bought it. Lubed it and put 50 rounds through it. Love the trigger. I am used to Glocks and single actions, and this seems to be right between them. Definite break, and easy to stage. I was shooting Winchester personal defense 230gr hp, no...

Some of you may remember a few weeks ago that i sold most of my guns under a "getting out of shooting" subject line. I -um- "regret" to say that I was not able to quit cold turkey. I still hang around here and other boards. And a gun or two has found its way back into my house - dunno how, it...

I came across an AR-15 lower marked "PWA". Anyone know who/what that is? Any good? Thanks!

Saw one that had just been traded in at the gunshop. Very good condition, leather GI holster in good condition, GI double mag pouch (with mags) on a web belt. Ser no 1376xxx, guy is asking $799. Good deal or not?

Just sighted in my .35 remington with new williams peep sight. On three occasions when I sloooowwwwwllllly squeezed the trigger I got a light primer strike. Similar to the way a smith and wesson revolver that has the strain screw backed off will misfire when the trigger is squeezed slowly...

Any of you guys interested in free bullets? I have .458 rnfp 405 grain hard cast (box of 250) and .45 long colt 250gr swc. (500) that I am not going to use. In atlanta. Hawkman
