Following my complete shoulder replacement surgery over the winter, I can't do the amount of training I need to in order to compete in 3-gun at more than the very lowest level without chronic shoulder pain. I've taken another path and am getting back into bird hunting this year (also expensive...

I’m selling my 3-gun pistol to fund another project. It’s a greatly upgraded Gen 3 Glock 17 with a lightened trigger spring, and the stock sights have been replaced with blackout back and fiber optic front target sights. I’ve installed an extended mag release, as well as a Dawson Precision...

I’m not reloading .223 anymore and just finally dug out all the brass I had collected from the past few years. I have 31 pounds of mixed 223/5.56 brass, a little of it tumbled but most just as picked up at the range. I’d like to trade for 9mm brass or maybe even 9mm ammo. I could count it...

I'm wanting to shoot the Arkansas Sectional Multi-Gun Match next weekend, but having a new college student in the family has put a real cramp on money available for shooting. I found a few things I don't need that I'm offering for sale to help out. All are FTF in Tulsa area, or I can bring them...

My red fiber optic fell out of my front sight this weekend (Glock 17). When I was putting in a new piece, it got me thinking about the fact that fiber optic is available in both red and green. Which do you guys use, and why do you choose that color. I'm happy with red, but haven't tried the...

I haven't seen anything posted on this, but I saw Bryan out at USSA yesterday setting up stages for this weekend's pro series match. He said we are shooting our regular club match on Sunday, and it will include the four pro series stages, plus a couple of classifiers. I just thought I'd pass the...

Quick question. When I go the outdoor range (USSA), I take a bunch of target stands of mine and a couple of pieces of steel, set up 10 or 12 targets in different stage type settings and shoot them with rife, pistol or both. It's interesting, a lot of fun and, I think, productive. I do a lot of...

For Christmas I got the rest of the parts needed to put my new AR together, and my son and I built the lower last week. When I went to do the upper, I realized I needed a barrel nut wrench and an upper vice block to do it without tearing anything up (I've never put together an upper receiver...

I've picked up my 24-inch M3000, and added a +8 Nordic tube and an MOA oversized safety and charging handle. I've also ordered an aftermarket follower that I hope will help with the little bit of a sticky feeling I have when loading. I still haven't opened the loading port any, but plan to do...

I have a couple of things here I don’t need so thought I’d list them here. I got excited about my AR build and prematurely bought this AP Custom handguard (standard rifle, 12.375-inch length) before I bought my barrel. I ended up going with the 18-inch Nordic barrel with rifle length...

I'm trying to get into 3 Gun, so have been shooting my shotgun a lot, mostly cheap 7 1/2s and 8s from Wal Mart. I was cleaning out the garage today and ran across a bunch (one whole case unopened, plus six more full boxes) of Federal copper-plated Number 6s from a pheasant hunting outing several...

Palmetto State Armory is having free shipping today and tomorrow. I managed to get some Independence 5.56 55-grain fmj for $7.69 per box of 20. With no tax or shipping that's a pretty good deal -- under 39 cents apiece.

I have been reloading .223 and 9mm all year with good results, and finally got around to loading some ammo for my deer rifles. I worked up a good load for my .270 that I'm pleased wth, and have given up on my daughter's .243 until I can get a different powder since what I was using didn't...

Hope this is in the right place to post this. I didn't find anywhere that seemed more appropriate. OK, so I shoot my rifle and shotgun pretty well, pistol not so much. I keep hearing people say "focus on the front sight," and just realized today that because of my vision I simply can't "focus"...

I just found this site yesterday, and wish I had a few days earlier. I finally got up the nerve to shoot my first USPSA match, which wasn't easy becaue I figured I wouldn't know anybody there. I went out to USSA on Saturday morning at 8 and nobody else showed up! Then the next day saw the...
