    Went a Little Nuts with the Lanyards!

    Got an itch the other night to put swivel lanyard rings on a couple of single actions. Even my Officer's 1911 couldn't escape!

    Norinco Before & after (Pics)

    A few months ago, I stole this mint Norc at a show for $299: Here it is now. I "modified" the grip safety to resemble a Commander's and it's pretty darn close. Bought a Commander hammer on eBay that dropped right in. Added a $5 main spring housing from eBay. Put on some Pearce rubber...

    Has Anyone Seen a Stress Crack Like This Before?

    I'd like to hear from anyone with experience with this type of problem or has seen it before. This is a close-up of a little crack in the breechface of my stainless 357/9mm Blackhawk next to the firing pin hole bushing. I don't know if it's new or has always been there. I think it's new as...

    Anyone with a Factory DAO SP-101?

    I'm looking for a little help. Could someone with a factory double-action only (DAO) sp-101 remove the hammer from the gun (safely) and post a decent picture of it from the side so I can check out the side profile. I'd appreciate it.

    How do I "Bob" a Hammer for true DAO?

    I have a 3" SP101 and I'd like to convert it to DAO. I'm okay with cutting off the hammer spur. I just need to know where the single action notch is on the SP-101 so I can remove it. Has anyone done this who can also photograph the hammer (removed from the gun) with this mod so I can compare...

    10mm Witness Extractor and Slide Stop Problems

    Since I bought my Witness 10mm NIB last year, it rarely got through a full mag without choking with a spent case caught parallel in the ejection port (not stovepiped). I took a closer look and noticed that the extractor was putting no tension on the headcase at all. Anyway, last night I...

    Does anyone here own a Ruger P90 AND a P91?

    Can any owner of these TWO pistols tell me definitively if the slide/barrel of the P91 be put on the P90 frame? I'm not talking about safety issues or anything like that. Can it physically be done is all I'm asking. Thanks.

    How to make a Ruger 10mm?

    Anybody know if it would be possible to convert a Ruger P91 or P94 in .40 to 10mm just by reaming the chamber? Would the P91 be the stronger candidate? Can the Ruger take the extra pressure and abuse? Any mag issues? Thanks for any info.

    Need Help with "One Rifle" Decision

    I'm looking for some opinions on a choice of rifle. I've decided it would be wise to own a centerfire long gun. This rifle will be my only centerfire rifle. It needs to be an all-rounder. Primarily, this will be a SHTF scenario long gun. Otherwise, this gun will be for fun/plinking...

    Cartridge Display?

    Does anyone know where I can get a hold of a poster or brochure that has a size comparison display of all (or most) modern cartridges? I'm talking the whole cartridge, not just the bullet. Marlin Firearms usually has a display like this in the back of their catalog for all the calibers that...
