Just got a Series 70 Gold Cup and had a chance to put a couple of hundred rounds downrange over the weekend. Very nice! Had one FTF, which in my experience with 1911s is pretty good. I can tell this gun was meant for NRA/bullseye shooting, not action shooting. However I'd like to try it at...

Lots of hype on buying 'stripped lowers' in anticipation of a new AWB. What exactly does that get you? If you're predicting a ban like the last one the lower had to be part of a completed rifle prior to the ban. Lowers were available during the ban no problem, you just couldn't make finished...

I'm looking to SBS a Wingmaster I picked up not too long ago. Before I get the stamp I want to find a source for factory 870 14" barrels that I can go to once the paper work returns and I can buy one. Is this something I can get direct from Remington with a copy of the stamp or are there...

My local store had a brace of the 5" .45 XDs (marked Tactical on the slide) for $549. That was quick! They're not even listed on the SA website as a planned product yet!

Where were your guns, the ones you bought new, made? Are there countries you prefer or avoid? Does it matter to you? Here's my tally - US: 14 Austria: 2 Czech Republic: 2 Germany: 2 Russia: 1 Hey! Two to one US!

Imagine all your firearms are gone; fire, theft or natural disaster has cruelly struck home. Adding insult to injury there's no insurance. You've got to start over, all over again. There's no pot of money to help out, just what you usually spend. Where would you start? What would you have...

Man, have I learned a lot! A friend of mine is a lot like I was a few years ago. Very enthusiastic about firearms but doesn't really own any beyond a hunting rifle. Being poor and in college will do that to you. Anyhow it's fun to listen to him wax on about the virtues of the many...

I got a 500 round pack of .45 ACP once-fired "Grade 1" brass from Midway this week on sale. Looking it over it's tough to see how they know it's once-fired. Lots of head stamps with dates that go back a few years. Most were in good condition but nearly all the Federal brass had their...

Can I use any AK-style side rail mount on a Saiga 12? Is there the possibility of a "bad fit" because of the difference in reciever specs from other AK type firearms? I'd like to mount an older 30mm Aimpoint I have lying around. Any ideas on how to best accomplish this with the Saiga 12...

A WECSOG-graduate buddy of mine has successfully installed a pistol grip and folding stock to a Saiga 12 he bought for this purpose before the Ban expired. I'm looking to do the same but want the 19" Home Defense version. Are there good sources on the web (not an auction!) to find these...

... AFTER the ban expires, of course. Right now I have a DSA Type II reciever and that's about it. My G1 was built with a friend in his shop and it works beautifully, however I'd like to get this one professionally assembled (at least the barrel timing part). Where should I be looking for...

Since my last thread got locked due to events way beyond my control let's try a variation on a theme, shall we? :D Let's say you were putting together an urban infantry combat patrol in Iraq performing a sweep for hostiles in known Indian country. You have three squads, three attached...

Any changes or adaptations made due to the AO become common? How about support weapons? More MGs / SAWs? Less Than Lethal ordnance like CS grenades or baton rounds?

Hmmm, curling the middle carpal around the trigger? I guess super ninja training will compensate for the high and left impacts this hold will produce :barf: !

Imagine if you will the Wild West of legend. But instead of the venerable Peacemaker and Schofield more modern designs, those of today, are available. Which of the pistols we know well now would be worn the most on the hip of a careworn cowboy or dastardly desperado? Things like durability...

I installed one of these in a couple of my Redding sizing dies. Definately makes a difference in the stress of running the button through the neck. No more lubing the case mouth either.

Wow! That ten minute segment blew away the entire length of 29 Days Later. For some reason I thought this movie was going to look like Scooby Doo with zombies. Guess not. I guess I know what I'm up to Friday night! Edited to add gun-related content: Yes, you do still have to shoot...

What gun must every discriminating gun collector have to have? In your opinion, of course :D ... I'd say a K-98 Mauser of some vintage is required. They're classic and widely available for a good price.

Hey Folks! Got out to the range both days this weekend for the first time this year and had a blast (literally!). Saturday I was sighting in my varmint AR upper and was I rusty! So today (Sunday) I went back out with my CZ-452 and shot up about 300 rnds over iron sights. By the last 200...
