    CZ 527 Ebony Exclusive .223

    Mine arrived today. It was everything I'd heard it was. Beautiful wood, sculpted and checkered stock, bluest hammered barrel I've ever seen and a polished bolt like it was a piece of art. I don't know if this was a one off or the beginning of a new import period. The gun was tested by CZ on...

    Winchester 1894 25-35

    I just inherited this rifle. It is a saddle ring carbine with a Lyman site. Serial number dates it to 1921, which is consistent with what the person who gave it to me said. Anyway to tell if the Lyman site was original to the gun? The action is smooth as silk and aside from some ranch and...

    Deal or No Deal?

    I have a chance to pick up a CZ 83 .380, NIB, with two boxes of Federal reduced recoil JHPs, for $300. Guy bought it for his wife and she wanted a wheelgun. Don't really need another semi, but seems like a smokin' hot deal. Any body got one?

    .357 Needed

    I'm looking for a .357 revolver. I have a .357 lever gun and like the idea of a revolver that uses the same ammo. Leading candidate is the S&W 686 w/ 3 1/16" barrel. I've been away from revolvers for a long time and wonder if there is a competitive alternative. Primary uses will be HD...

    Won my FFL--now need optics for my MINI 14

    Well, second place, but still, second place pays $800. I've decided to add optics for my Mini-14 and load up on ammo for the remainder (since this is technically "found" money:)) I've got the NRA model, had it about a month and like it a bunch. Been looking at either a holosight (eotech 517)...
