    1895ss Microgroove worth buying?

    I have an opportunity to buy a Marlin 1895ss Microgroove barreled rifle for about $150 in perfect condition. Would I be better off paying the extra money for ballard rifling in a newer Guide Gun? Can you get a new barrel? It seems like a great deal, but I want to be able to shoot Buffaloe...

    Where CAN'T I shoot my AR in California?

    I have jumped through all of the hoops. I have registered my Bushmaster here in California. I carry all of my documentation in a zip-lock bag in the stock. I seem to remember talk about restricting where you can legally shoot "Assault Weapons"- even legally registered and owned ones- in...

    Kahr K9 Range Report

I loaded my range bag with 250 rounds of ball ammo and 50 rounds of Speer GDHPs for my break-in session with my new Kahr K9. Got in my car and drove...

    Airguns for Turkey in California!

    As of this year it is legal to hunt turkeys with airguns over .20 caliber. This should open up turkey hunting to those of us in suburban/semi-rural areas infested with turkeys but without enough land or understanding neighbors to use a shotgun. Any thoughts? I am excited enough about it that I...

    Kimber UnGlocked me yesterday

    I took my first 1911 type pistol I have owned to the range yesterday- a Kimber Classic Stainless .45 with night sights and rosewood grips. OH MY GOD! I fired 250 rounds. Not one failure. I am amazed by how much better I can shoot this thing. After using my Glock 19 for a long time I have...

    plywood test II

    I think this is a very important topic. If we play nice, maybe we won't get sent to our rooms again. Based on my own completely non-scientific experience and "testing" I would be afraid to use a .223 rifle in a home defense situation if a shotgun was an alternative. Here is my logic: 1) Your...

    Streisand and Perot RANT!

    ABC is giving Barabara Streisand free airtime with Barbara Walters to bash Bush and stump for Gore. CNN is givng Perot free airtime to endorse Gore tonight on Larry King. Barbara and Larry will just sit back and smile. HOW THE HELL CAN WE FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LIBERAL MEDIA MACHINE! HOW CAN...

    Waiting periods can be fun.

    I am in the middle of 11 days of pure, unadulterated bliss. Like a kid on Christmas Eve for 10 nights, I anxiously await November 3rd. At 10:00am I pick up my new Kimber Classic Custom Stainless .45 auto. Do any of you share the feeling I have as I walk around with my receipt and pick-up tag...

    How can you shoot 1MOA @ 100 yards w/ open sights?

    Another post prompted me to plea for help. I have perfect vision. I am a better than average rifleman/ pistolero. Why can't I shoot groups under 4-6 inches at 100 yards with standard dovetail open sights like all the gun writers do? At that range I can't be sure I am aiming at exactly the same...

    Bullets are just lead and copper RU486 pills

    They both do the same thing, just at different stages of human development. A woman should have the right to control the future of her body. This includes using lead and copper RU486 pills to prevent a rape or assault anywhere she goes. I support her right to choose! Freedom of Choice...

    Best way to learn self-defense?

    I have read with interest the many posts regarding different martial-arts and their efficacy in actual "street-fights". What set of skills (as opposed to specific animal poses and schools of discipline) are most important to learn in order to improve an individual's defensive capability? What...

    .308 or .44 magnum?

    Deer season opens on Saturday. I will be out hunting Blacktails in the Sierra Nevada mountains (small deer). We will be doing some drives. Shots are rarely 100 yards. Most are under 50. Which of my two rifles suited for the task should I carry- my Remington Model 7 in .308 with its Vari-X III or...

    EMERSON!

    According to James Baker in this month's Shooting Times magazine: "I don't want you to lose sleep over this, but Judge Garwood and I, between us, own enough guns to start a revolution in most South American countries." One of the 3 judges on the panel made this closing remark to DOJ attorney...

    Please keep him in your prayers...

    I found out tonight that my Dad's best friend- the guy who took me hunting for the first time- was seriously injured by a Cape Buffalo while hunting in Africa. We have few details so far. Apparently he was charged and gored very badly. The lower half of his body is a mess. A lot of muscle lost...

    Parker Hale shotgun parts?

    My friend has a Parker Hale Semi-Auto shotgun. It shoots 2 3/4 shells only. He needs a replacement bolt handle for the gun. (It came loose and fell into a duck pond many years ago while I was shooting it, so I am trying to help my friend find the part.) Do you know where I can find parts for...
