    Gun Safe - Houston, TX

    I need a new gun safe. I've narrowed it down to two: AMSEC or Sturdy. I'd prefer to purchase it from a local dealer, but that isn't possible with Sturdy, and a local AMSEC dealer wants $1200 more for the same safe than the prices I've seen online. Has anyone in Houston bought a safe online and...

    Ruger Stops Sales at Gun Shows

    The Denver Post is reporting that Ruger is requiring its distributors to supply its shotguns, rifles, and handguns only to dealers who sell exclusively from their regular place of business. I expect prices to rise. I have always found better prices on Rugers at gun shows than at retail...

    HKs & Primer Residue

    My new USP9 stopped firing after 500 rounds (Winchester USA ammunition). HK said the problem was caused by primer residue on the firing pin and in the firing pin channel. Has this happened to anyone else? How do I clean this area? I don't want to have to return the pistol to HK every 500 rounds.
