    Multi purpose 20ga under $1000

    I'm looking for suggestions on a multi purpose shotty under $1000. My only shotgun at the moment is a home defense 870. I'm leaning toward a 20ga auto, but I'd LOVE a SxS. It seems (from my reading here) that higher quality may be had in an auto vs the same priced SxS? Also, I haven't done...

    Marlin 1895GS replacement iron sites

    I got my dream job in Alaska, they paid for all my moving expenses from Utah, so I bought myself a new Marlin 1895GS Guide Gun to reward myself. I broke a small plastic part of the rear site on the gun within 10 minutes of getting it home. :cuss: My question is, what kind of iron sites...

    Ammo through Canada

    How much ammo can I transport through Canada (by car) to Alaska? Are there any restrictions on caliber, etc? I've done the research on transporting firearms (8 of my 13 have to be shipped :fire:), but I can't find the details about transporting ammo. I sure hope I don't have to sell...

    Saiga 12ga as an Alaskan survival gun

    Please discuss the idea of using a Saiga 12ga as a multi purpose Alaskan survival gun. I'm thinking along the lines of situations such as: Your bush plane went down but the radio is busted, or your ATV died 70 miles from the highway, or you inadvertently stumble too close to a sow grizz...

    Scratched up stainless: How to "fix"

    I scratched up the stainless steel receiver of my new Marlin 336 XLR carrying it on a sling. The receiver must have been rubbing against a metal rivet on my jeans, or maybe a buckle on my backpack. The scratches are NOT deep. What can I use to "brush" the scratches out of the steel, or...

    Alaska blacktail deer

    Has anyone hunted blacktail deer in Prince William Sound, AK? I'm planning a blacktail hunt as part of my trip up there in August, and I'm trying to figure out where to go (within PWS). From Whittier, I have access to a 28' bayliner. The boat barely has enough range to make it to Montague...

    My handguns

    Here are some pics I took of my CZ P-01 in it's new holster from HBE Leatherworks (www.hbeleatherworks.com). Great holster. I'm very happy. Also, a pic of my other handguns. I'm more of a rifle guy, but I think my limited handgun collection covers all the bases - for now at least.

    Build a foldable shooting bench

    I saw this on a local classifieds and instantly though it would make a nice shooting bench. It's not my ad, and I'm guessing that just from the pictures it would be easy to figure out how to build. http://www.ksl.com/?nid=218&ad=1000821&cat=188&lpid=

    help me rip this guy a new one...

    The following is taken from an email from my anti friend: "If you really care about not getting raped or murdered, you have to wonder why the US has BY FAR the highest rates of murder and violent crime in the developed world -- much closer to the rates you find in Colombia and Mexico City...

    Frustrated by anti friend

    I just have to vent... I emailed a bunch of my friends a link to the petition against H.R. 1022. One of my friends emailed back and said, "I'm not sure I agree with you. I think automatic weapons should be illegal in the US, just like they are in every other civilized country" This is a...

    sale suggestion

    Here's a suggestion that some of us might want to use when we buy/sell/trade an item on THR or elsewhere when the sale is not FTF. Use a third party. Find another member, possibly a moderator, and ask if they would receive payment as a middle-man. When the 3rd party receives payment, the...

    Kel-Tec subcompact as BUG?

    Does anyone carry a Kel-Tec as a BUG, or a pocket CCW? What model is generally regarded as Kel-Tecs most reliable 9mm? I know in general Kel-Tecs aren't too reliable, but I'm interested in the idea of a very small pistol as a BUG and like the price point of a Kel-Tec.

    New XD-45

    I just picked up a new XD-45 bi-tone 4" stainless package. I sold my XD-40 tactical to "upgrade" to 13rds of .45. Also, i grew tired of carrying the longer barreled tactical - even open carry while hiking... I was just wondering if anyone has noticed if the .45s, or maybe the 4" models have...

    5.56 ammo in a Saiga .223?

    Are there any issues with using mil-spec 5.56 ammo in a .223 Saiga, or was the chamber designed for both? Just a simple, "Yes it's fine" or "No, I wouldn't do it" is all I'm looking for. I'm sure the technical differences between 5.56 and .223 have been beaten to a bloody pulp. --Grizz

    A favor: CDNN catalog upload

    Would someone upload the newest CDNN catalog (.pdf file) and attach it to this thread. I can't access most gun-related web sites at work due to my company's filtration software. Thanks so much! --Grizz

    I was just over on the Saiga forum and saw this thread: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?showtopic=14473 Anybody know about these AK clones (STG-2000C)? The price sure looks decent ($380) for hammer forged, chrome line bbls. Im just wondering how they compare to Romanian, Saiga...

    Girlfriend's roommate attempts to grab gun off my belt without asking!

    Situation: I received a frantic call from my girlfriend, late at night, explaining that she got home from the store to find the front door to her house wide open. I happened to be 5 minutes away, so I told her I would stop by. Since I was so close, we decided not to call the police until I...

    Anyone else not been able to access the Utah DWR website in the last month or so??? What's up? I can't find a new address? Now is the time of year for limited-entry applications, so I'm getting a bit frustrated/ worried.
