    All The Same Handguns

    Wow! The notion is a good one. I have thought for the longest time that I should get a little focus on what I am doing. Too many revolvers, various calibers, too many differnt semi autos, various calibers. Maybe if took some of the ideas from the original post I could actually get better...

    Why are hard cast bullets so great and FMJ so bad?

    Thanks 41 Mag I always try to do my part in helping. Been shooting for a few years, not much problem with bears here is NW Ohio but I having been having a battle with a groundhog for 3 years. Think I'm going to call in air next. Semper Ho & Gung Fi

    Why are hard cast bullets so great and FMJ so bad?

    After reading through all of this I am staying away from attacking bears. I might attack beers! I will continue supporting my right keep and arm bears, but not with beers.

    Best Pocket Carry in 9MM ?

    CPX2 isn't for everyone. I have one and like it. I also like my J frames 38s for ccw. CPX2 has a lot of good features, but if you don't shoot DA a lot it could off putting.

    Which Is A Better .357? Colt, Ruger, Smith?

    I voted for the Dan Wesson pistol pac because I've owned one and they are great. I also have two Taurus 357s a 4" stainless old one and a 6" blue new one. They are great guns.

    Remington 22lr Pump

    Hi Thanks for insight. You are correct about "poor form", I do get that. I never want to be seen as someone who might take advantage of another's lack of knowledge. All of the points you make are right on, and I will consider your advice. At the very least I'll give it a good cleaning for...

    Remington 22lr Pump

    Hi A friend tried to give me an old Remington pump 22lr that his Father left to him. This gun was from 1909 - 1911, serial # RW 129xxx. It is in 80% condition, needs cleaning and has never been "messed with". It has an octagon barrel, and his Father used in Camp Perry matches in 1940 or so...

    What is the best new 9mm pistol for under $600.00?

    Hi Probably not at all. Tarus was an easy target to bash, but too many owners have had them for a long time and have had very good experiences with them. Have had a PT 92 for 5 years and not probs at all. Great heavy gun. Fun to shoot, accurate, reliable.

    Want a pistol and need some suggestions

    Hi I'd go along with the suggestions about a 357 4" revolver and shooting 38 wadcutter target loads. My wife has one of these and a 3" 38 special, (both stainless) she really enjoys shooting both, and does very well. (Mostly better than me). Of course later on your going to need a 1911, a...

    Beautiful Marlin Stock

    Yeah, I tried just lighting money in the back yard, but the fire didn't last as long as a good bocote, paduca, rosewood, purple heart, teak, jatoba, wenge, etc. I found out that curly sassafras burns too quickly. I like to stay with the South American,and African hardwoods. Oak, Mahogany...

    Beautiful Marlin Stock

    Hi thanks for the support. Not sure if I have the talent for actually doing woodwork for others? I have done a lot of woodworking over the past 40+ years, and have turned a lot of very fine wood into very fine expensive firewood!! It does, however, give me a reason to buy lot's of tools...
