    Rifles you can still own in strict areas

    Hey all. I live behind the Iron Curtain in Illinois. As you may know, the powers that be passed an AR ban this year so now we are not allowed to buy semi-automatic rifles that have the "scary" features. It's honestly one of the most brutal gun control laws I've ever read. The state even wants...

    Do you think Smith and Wesson will ever make another 10mm handgun?

    Lately I've been thinking how much I would like a 10mm handgun. I currently own a S&W M&P .40 FS and really like the gun. I reload and my .40 dies can also load 10mm. In the next year or so, I will be looking at getting another handgun, probably something with more recoil than my .40. I really...

    Purchased my first Glock

    As of this weekend, I should be picking up my first Glock. It is a Gen 4 Glock 30 .45acp, barely used with 3 10 round magazines. I am really excited about getting it, and being able to have a magazine release on the left side of the pistol, as I am a lefty. Anyways, what are all of your...

    working on an in-line for a friend

    It is my first time ever looking at the internals of an inline muzzle loader. My friend had it, and knew that it could not fire. It is a Traditions Tracker Model 209. The bolt was stuck. After a lot of cleaning, hot water baths, etc, the bolt came out. Now I can see the breech plug. It is my...

    Concerns about my Arcus 98 DAC

    Roughly a year ago I bought my Arcus 98 DAC in 9mm, for $350 dollars. I haven't had many problems with it so far, but I've put under 500 rounds through it. So far, the only ammo that has been through it is cheap Federal from Walmart or Winchester White Box. Which leads me to my question. Do any...

    Thinking about .223/5.56 rifles

    I've been looking into getting a .223/5.56 semi-automatic rifle for quite some time. I'm not really very familiar with .223 rifles, so I'm hoping you guys could help me with a recommendation. - I'm on a fairly low budget, I'd say less than $900. - I particularly do not care for AR pattern...

    Heads up to those living in Florida

    I'm not meaning to start any fear, just letting you guys know about something. I was watching C-SPAN today while randomly flipping through channels, and caught a bit of Attorney General Eric Holder talking to a Florida Congressman Ted Deutesh(?). I probably butchered his name. Anyways, this...
