    SS choked barrel for Mossberg 500

    Hello, So a while ago I bought a Mossberg Mariner (the stainless one) to keep around for bear and home defense. Now I want to shoot a turkey with it. Does anyone know where I can find a SS barrel threaded for a choke? I have looked and looked but they all seem to be blued. Although function...

    CA AK quick help?

    Hello, Can I run something by you all out in CA? I might be moving that way and I have an AK. It has detachable magazines, a muzzle break (NOT a flash hider) a fixed stock and a pistol grip. If I ditch the pistol grip and get some 10 round mags, will my rifle be CA legal? Sorry, I...

    How come my XDs will not lock on an empty mag?

    Like the title says, my XD9 almost never (it has once or twice) locks back on an empty magazine. I had an XD45 a while back and it only locked back intermittantly as well. Is this my gun, me or just a common thing with XDs? Can I do anything to fix it? I have tried it with "full power" ammo as...

    Lee turret as a single stage question.

    Hello, I am about to start reloading (which seems to be a statement that I am making with dishearteneing regularity...) and I have one quick question. I am thinking about going with the Lee Classic Turret press. I know you can disable the mechanism and use it as a single stage press. My...

    18" barrel .308 1/10 twist. Bullet Recomendations?

    Hello, I am about to get my "scout" rifle back from the gunsmith after getting the barrel cut down to 18.5". The rifle is a Stevens 200, .308 with a 1/10 twist rate. I am also about to start reloading. I have a small amount of experience with reloading but this is my first press of my own...

    Help with a selling price (Rem700-300WM)

    Hello, Can someone give me an idea of what a fair price for my Remington 700 in .300 Win Mag would be? I don't think it is any "special" model, just an average looking hunting rifle. It's used with about 30 rounds fired through it. No real dings or scratches to speak of. Thanks a lot, Dan

    Single-stack or centerfeed .308 magazines?

    Hello to all you wonderful people, I need a single stack or centerfeed .308 magazine, preferably not much longer in size than a 20rd M1A mag. Manufacturer immaterial, but I would like 10 rounds. Does anyone know of any? Why? I am working on building a Stevens 200 into a "truck gun"...

    Blue plastic 9mm cases?

    I was out at the shooting spot and found some weird cases. I don't have a picture but they are pretty straight forward. They are made of blue plastic with a metal base (where the primer is), 9mm stamped on the case. Are these paint rounds or something? If not, what are they? Thanks, Dan

    Tech Sights is cool.

    I love my Marlin 60 Tech Sights peep sight setup. It came loose from it's base. Tech Sights sent a new one ASAP after just a quick back and forth by email. Can't ask for more than that. Thanks!

    I don't care if it HAS been done to death: XD9 vs G19

    So, I am going to buy my first 9mm tonight. In this corner: XD9 $419.00 I had an XD45 Tactical (wish I still did) and it shot good. That is the extent of my XD experience. In that corner: Glock 19 Gen4. $605.00 I shot a Glock once. It was in .357 Sig and had a compensator so not very...

    Wild West Guns getting a TV Show?

    I heard it but I can't remember where. Is it true? I know WWG gets a lot of flack for the way they do business. I have actually always liked dealing with them. Then again I have a thick skin and actually enjoy "gruff to the point of comedy" as a customer service technique. Honestly though...

    Conversion barrels and accuracy.

    Hello all, I am feeling a touch of the new gun fever lately (maybe you saw my 1911 thread?) and I have always wanted a .357 Sig. I shot a Glock a few years ago in .357 with a compensator on the extended barrel. I loved it. Also I am becoming less and less a fan of the .40S&W. For less than...

    Low cost, US made 1911?

    How's everybody doing out there? I have found myself wanting a 1911. Never owned one, never shot one. I used to have that old black Crossman 1911-style BB gun when I was a kid though. Since this will be my first 1911 I really want to err on the side of "cheap". I am a fairly experienced...

    Does anyone have a suppressed Mosquito?

    One of my fantasy guns is a threaded barrel Sig Mosquito (the .22 autoloader) with a suppressor. With tax time coming up shortly I thought I would put some feelers out to see if anyone on here has any experiences with them, good or bad? Some questions: How much was the suppressor? Are...

    .308 muzzlebrake help?

    Hello folks, So it is finally happening, I am "truck-gunning" my .308 Stevens 200. Part of it is that I want to chop the barrel down to 18" and add a brake to it. I have no idea what I should be looking for in a brake. I do know I want accuracy and hopefully less muzzle blast and flash...

    FNP40 Holsters?

    Hello, I am looking to get a holster for my FNP40. Does anyone have any recommendations? I am thinking about a cheaper one, as it wouldn't be an everyday carry or anything like that. More of an "outdoors carry" so concealed or open, it doesn't matter. In summarry, I don't have any idea what I...

    Steven 200 w/ blind mag to detachable mag?

    Hi fellas, I have a weird obsessiion with "scouting" my .308 Stevens 200. It is a blind magazine (internal magazine attached to the reciever). I am wondering if anyone has ever seen a conversion kit to allow for the use of detachable magazines. I have seen a few kits that work with center...

    Hello guys, I have a quick question. Is anyone running a fixed 10 power mildot scope? I am looking to buy one for my rem700. I would like to spend between $500-$700 bucks but would consider basically anything up to $1000. Just thought I'd ask around to see if anyone has some experiences...

    Can I use 10rd mags in a 13rd XD45?

    Hello folks, Can I use 10rd magazines in my XD .45 that came with the hicap mags? Because I can get a couple tens for really cheap and I would like to use those for practice so I can leave my HD (13rd) mags loaded to avoid stressing the springs over time. Did I mention they were...
