    Pull through cleaning Kits

    I recently picked up a gunslick pull through cleaning kit and absolutly love it. is there some reason I don't see these as often as cleaning rods?

    A while back I saw a book on how to machine your own gattling gun at a gun show, the dealer was explaining to a guy that it was perfectly legal to build a firearm from scratch as long as it was not for resale and the gun itself didn't violate any restrictions (I think a gattling gun is not...

    Why did S&W drop the SW99?

    I have a SW99 compact and have also put a lot of rounds through my buddies full size. Does any body know why smith and wesson dumped it? I know you can still get the walther p99. It seems so much superior to the M&P's my only complaint about the gun is the mag release, to close to the trigger...

    Gotta love the media!

    I came across this today http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2009/07/ak-47/4/ I love how they say the "clip" has been removed. The well informed writer must have known a lot about the subject (it looks to me like there is a little more than the "clip" removed;))

    Is it just me?

    I have a handful of semi autos, and I usually carry a semi. however when I am looking around the gun store it is always the revolvers that call to me and If I am shooting just for kicks it is almost one of my revolvers (when I am shooting a hand gun any how).
