In the January 2003 issue of Dillon's Blue Press there is a very nice lady with a very nice rifle. Looks to be an AR15 style, but at the same time it looks like perhaps it's a .308? Sorry about the small pic, but they didn't have a full size on the site. Picture #6. If you look on the cover...

I finally got my new 870 scoped and now I've got to take her out to get sighted in. They were out of brand I had previously used, Winchester BRI 2 3/4" Sabots so I got to do some browsing. Well, the BRI slugs are 1oz travelling at a rather sedate 1350 fps and still they thumped me pretty...

I did a thorough cleaning on all of my weapons the other day and was wondering how I was going to fit more guns in the safe. That's when I took a good look at how many magazines I have and thought, hmmmm..If I store these elsewhere I might actually have a lot more room. At the same time I though...

I did and was very surprised at the results. At my last range session with my 21" rifled barreled 870 I decided to see exactly what a load of buckshot would do to the target at 15 yards. That was of course after zeroing with my slugs. The results? With a 2 3/4" load of S&B 00 Buckshot I had...

Fellow Shooters, I purchased a Romanian SAR1 7.62x39 AK imported by Century Arms a few weeks ago and had a problem with the weapon double tapping on the first range session. I did a basic function check and narrowed it down to a fault trigger pack (Hammer/ Trigger/Disconnector). Not wanting...

Anyone here using these for hunting? These were the most economical priced slugs I could find at my local store. $825 for a box of 5, 2 3/4" BRI Sabot Slugs. I picked up two boxes to shoot at the range for a mini test, but I'd also like to hear of anyone who also uses these. 1350 FPS...not...

This is on the Cabelas Catalog. The Hastings "Metro" barrel extension. It adds 32" to your barrel. You get 85% better patterns at 40 yards. I wonder...anyone purchase one of these?? Perhaps for home defense? :D Good SHooting RED

I decided to get a Mossburg 500 with the turkey length barrel and add a rifled choke tube for deer hunting this winter. My options are to either use a weaver type base or to get a saddle type scope mount. I'm thinking of going with a weaver base, but I have a couple of questions. 1. What base...

Well...I went the cheap route today and instead of picking up another can of Gun Scrubber for $6.97 a can I thought, hmmm...Walmart brand carb cleaner is just .97 a can. Wow...I save 6 bucks. Thats a box of 9mm ammo!:p I had heard somewhere in a forum that Gun Scrubber is just glorified carb...

I was rather surprised today when they caught the suspects. They weren't ex Spec Ops soldiers gone awry. They did not have a weapons cache that included numerous evil "assault" weapons or grenades and antipersonnel mines. No specialized vehicle hardened against attack. No "glorious" firefight...

I was recently looking at one of the links over at AR15.com and read this article from the Washington Times. This is one section.... Meanwhile, the hunt for the sniper continued as investigators cast a net over the region's gun community, confiscating sign-in logs from shooting ranges...

I happen to be looking at new BP rifles today and noticed that the barrels seem to be a lot thicker than those designed for smokeless powder shooting. Is there a difference in the type of steel used for the barrel types, or is it just tradition that makes the BP rifles so heavy? I'm sure they...

Today was the range day to test my newly assembled Rock River 9mm AR. While there I decided to do some unscientific testing of my own..just in case I am ever attacked by 1/4" steel plate.:p :D I'll start with the 9mm. The upper and mag block are Rock River Arms while the lower is a Bushmaster...

I was re-reading "MARINE SNIPER" by Charles Henderson and happen to come across a chapter on page 117 (for those who have the book) that had me wondering. I took out some to get to the point.. The recoil sent the Unertl scope sliding forward in its mounts as the bullet cracked across the open...

I'm building a Post Ban 9mm AR and initially couldn't decide on whether to go with the A1 or Rock River LE type stock. The A1 stock was only 5/8 in shorter than the A2 stock so I decided to go with the RR LE and DPMS 1" stock spacer. The stock spacer will be in either tomorrow or Friday and...

I was doing some weekly cleaning on my guns today and I noticed that the gas tube on my FAL is loose. The nut that connects the gas tube to the upper reciever is tight but I can still turn the gas tube 2-3 turns either direction before it starts to tighten up. Being a gas operated weapon I would...

Internet buying was something relatively new to me. Now I'd venture to say that a good 50-75 percent of all my purchases for weapons and parts are via Internet. I'm almost positive that many more buyers just like me are out there are using the intenet to conduct transactions that were formerly...

Well..I finally got one. I got me a big ol gun!:D I purchased a G1 built on an Imbel reciever from a local builder at the Tallahassee Gunshow and finally got to try her out for a run today. First Impressions The quality of the Belgian Kit and Imbel reciever was superb. It appeared to be a...

I need a source other than DSA or Brownells for a DSA scope mount for an FAL. I tried DSA and they are out for 2-3 weeks. I also tried Brownells and I don't think they have the correct one I need listed. Their price is 100+ dollars. DSA wants $68 I believe. Thanks ReD

I know I can find a gun show listing in the Shotgun News and Gun List papers, but is there an online site that I can go to for information? Thanks Red
