    Ruger sp101 sights question...

    I am looking very seriously into getting a ruger sp101 357 Wiley Clapp version with the 2 1/4" barrel. My wife and I shot a regular 101 at our range and while I loved the gun and my wife shot it amazingly well, we both HATED the sights. The stainless sights over a black target were impossible...

    Thoughts on intentional free-bore.

    Howdy guys. I've got a very nice 60's or 70's vintage custom Mauser (09 Argentine action) in 7mm mag that I decided to use a Hornady COL gauge on to determine optimal bullet seating depth. To my shocked surprise, I was able to completely push the bullets out of the case before they...

    Browning buckmark UDX vs Ruger mark I, I I or III Target

    Want to buy a good shooting, reliable 22 auto pistol and I've narrowed it down to two basic choices. A Browning buckmark UDX or a Ruger mark I, II, or III Target. Years ago I almost bought a buckmark silhouette but never did. I also came close to getting a Ruger with a heavy barrel but never...

    Need help choosing a 22 mag handgun

    Howdy all, I'm trying to help out a coworker. He's wanting a 22 mag handgun for in his truck. He has a fairly good size cattle operation on the side and wants a 22 mag handgun that is cheap, small and reasonably reliable. It will be used to occasionally dispatch a dying cow and maybe a few...

    Rem 870 jamming issues. Need answers ASAP

    Howdy all, Probably a question that's been hashed around already but I can't find an answer in my searches so I gotta ask. My daughters boyfriend is new to guns and recently bought a Rem 870 express 12 gauge. They've gone out shooting a couple times and he's having a blast but they are...

    Who uses a scope on their hunting handguns???

    Okay... I've got a Ruger Super Blackhawk, Bisley Hunter in 44 mag that is a real good shooter. A coworker offered to sell me a Leupold M8 4X scope for $100 that has never been installed on a gun. He let me take it home and give it a try so I put it on the pistol yesterday. I hope to get it...

    Western Arms - Uberti 357????

    Okay, typical question time.... Anybody have one of these or anyone familiar with this revolver? I've got a coworker wants to sell me one. Supposed to be a good shooter (aren't they all?) 5.5" barrel, case colored frame, brass trigger guard, walnut grips, fixed sights. Don't know the model...

    Is this "adequate" accuracy?? pics added

    Hi guys, just went and shot my new toy today and I thought I did okay but that I certainly have room for improvement. Just wondering how my shooting compares to you all who are good at it and do a lot of it. The "toy" is a Ruger super blackhawk, Hunter Bisley in stainless steel with a 7.5"...

    Aftermarket grips for Ruger Bisley????

    Is there such a thing? I'm talking about something like the pachmayr grips, not just the same contour hard grips in a different material than the factory grips. I just bought a super blackhawk hunter, bisley version 44 mag and would like to put a more comfortable grip on it. I used to...

    Stevens 94C 410 shotgun dissassembly instructions needed.

    Okay, I've got a Stevens 94C 410 single shot with a broken firing pin. I'd like to find some basic written instructions for teardown. Doesn't need to be anything super detailed, just basic sequence of events and the typical "do this" or "don't do that" type stuff. A good exploded view...

    shotgun barrel dent removal at home with pictures.

    Hi all, First time on the forum and my very first post. Looks like a real cool site. I thought I'd share a recent repair story with ya'll. However, like all stories, a little background is probably in order. All my life, I've always wanted a quality SXS shotgun similar to the Fox...
