A friend of mine offered to let me come to his place and build and AK. I have to tell you having literally drilled the holes, set the rivets and built this rifle is really cool. People who tell you AK's aren't accurate, well I think its safe to say they haven't shot one built properly. We took...

Let me first tell you what I have, then you guys can tell me what to do. I have a mid length AR, with standard front sight, and A2 carry handle rear. I have used scopes my whole life, literally had a scope on my first pellet gun, and want to start over and learn to be better with irons...

With the two guys I know of who went to SHOT show I can't believe they missed out on this gem, it is after all the "Ultimate concealed carry pistol" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FcPXeAf8PY

Posted this elsewhere, but I wanted to ask people who actually shoot their guns so.... Wanted to see how everyone's preferences ran when it comes to single stack 1911 mags. The Colt 1911 I was given came with a factory Colt magazine, and a no name magazine. I was later given a Springfield...

I have a 24 inch barreled Benelli Nova, with the Nordic +5 extension, and two chokes, improved and full. REALLY don't want to sell this, but crap happens... I have the parts to put the gun back in original configuration, and will sell it as a standard 24 inch Nova for $350. Or, if you want...

I have been accused of "overthinking" things, so please forgive me, but here it goes. I have what I would call a nice 1911, for my purposes. If you haven't seen it in my other threads it a Colt 1991 Commander. I primarily wanted one to carry occasionally, take deer hunting as a secondary...

Seems like Sigs (at least the P series) are kind of a niche gun. A lot of departments and military get them issued, (and I understand that doesn't necessarily mean anything) but you don't see them in competition, and only rarely see them being carried as CCWs. I have been carrying a Sig 2022 for...

My Colt 1911 has a long trigger, and I have smallish hands. When I grip the gun properly the trigger sits right at the middle of my finger pad, rather than getting on the distal joint. Am I right in thinking this means I could benefit from the short trigger? Next, are 1911 trigger replacements...

I don't have a lot of experience with Kydex holsters, but I have used a few. My main holster for carry is usually a Blackhawk Serpa if I am wearing a suit, or the weather is cool and I have a jacket. The rest of the time I use an IWB holster. I got this holster earlier this week, and have...

Have to be in Texas or Western Ok? And I am not talking about the known distance, 60 rounds at the same target matches (F/TR), nor am I dissing them. They have their place. But I want to shoot matches like this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=T696gZXd3Xg#! And...

I have a full sized M&P .40 that I would like to trade for a smaller gun. The only thing not "stock" on mine is that I painted over the 3 dot sights. Mine has no safety, and no magazine disconnect, I prefer a compact M&P to have no disconnect but might be ok with one that has a safety. Other...

There is an older man in the community where I live and work who I have gotten to be friends with over the last few years. A few months back he had some health problems and almost died. His health problems were somewhat related to the condition of his house, which was a double wide. Well, I was...

If someone has these, and would part with them, let me know. Would buy, or borrow....

Posted this in the thread about my rifle, but figured it might come in handy to someone here. I read over and over again on a lot of forums that 41.5 grains of IMR 4895, pushing a 168 BTHP was a good all around load, and was a bit skeptical. It is supposedly the "go to" load for M1As shooting...

One of these isn't like the other.... Ahh! The Benelli, it's not semi auto! What do you think? Crappy pic but I think I am ready on the gun side of things.

Trying to find ways of keeping my guns more secure on trips and such. I don't like the idea of taking them in and out of a hotel with me if it's more than an overnight stay, and may take them with me on a week long trip this summer where I won't be able to keep them anywhere but in my vehicle...

I can't remember seeing any sidesaddles on 3 gun shotguns and figure there is a reason why but haven't heard it. I like the idea if keeping some ammo on the gun, and the 4 shell sidesaddle they make for the Benelli seems handy. For a home defense gun, how would you keep extra ammo handy, in a...

Lemme know if you have one, or see one. Prefer a 24 inch barrel.

Planning on getting a shotgun, but limited on funds. Trying to decide between a Mossy 500, or a Rem 870. I have owned both, and don't honestly have a preference, but I do like that the 870s can have extended mag tubes. This will be a dual purpose gun for hunting as well as a...

Got myself a M&P 40, with the plan being to use it as a multiple caliber gun. Here's my question, getting a 9mm barrel for it is almost a no brainer due to the cheapness of the ammo, and making it an option in times of limited availability, but what about a 357 sig barrel? I can't think of any...
