has anybody had any experience with this brand? a friend that i've been dove hunting with lately wants to get his own shotgun. he's been using one of my 11-87's thus far. i've never heard of this Tri Star brand or read anything about them in any gun magazines so i didn't know their history at...

thanks! for all the input everyone :)

responses i got Barrett's M82A1. i went to Leupold's website and can't find anything on the Mark 4. would the VXIII's not hold up? i just sent my application in to FCSA so i haven't heard anything back yet.

i just picked one up and am looking to put a scope on it. any recommendations about what to get or what not to get? i don't need mil-dots or other purpose reticles, fine duplex will work for me. i'm just looking for something that will stand up to the abuse that the 50 BMG will put it through...

American Spirit a co-worker of mine bought one and it was horrible, didn't work most of the time if at all. it looked to be very cheaply made. granted that's a sample size of one but that's as much as i know about them. based on that experience, i would never purchase one. your results may...

anyone here know about this? the manual that came with the weapon mentions an FN sight tool and adjustment manual, which it did not come with.

loaning guns? i've never had a problem with this. i would even loan out my Uzi (but not the MP5) but i think it's written somewhere that i must be in complete control of my Class III items at all times. i've only had 2 people ask and both times went without a hitch. one guy was a sheriff and...

freedom it's the one thing you can't have unless you're willing to share it with everyone else

according to the book i have, Traveler's Guide to the Firearms Laws of the Fifty States, personal machine gun ownership is prohibited in Kansas and in Missouri, they are allowed if classified as C&R. this book was also published in 2001 so it's possible that those prohibitions have been lifted...

not bolted. someone would be hard-pressed to move it with all the contents. plus there's the stairs they'd have to contend with. not saying it couldn't be done but it is definitely not a quickie job. and i second the use of the modular safes. i purchased a Zanotti Armor safe years ago for...

JWarren i keep mine on the second floor in my home. it's 500 pounds empty and has been upstairs for about 5 1/2 years now without showing any signs of problems. i don't live in an earthquake-prone area though so that might make a difference. the only thing i would suggest is keep it next to...

guns and vehicles Dodge Ram 1500. i would've thought the numbers would be heavier on the truck-owning side..... a little off-topic but another relationship i've found in general with the firearms community is the connection between shooters and motorcyclists and also to a lesser extent...

hello all a co-worker of mine turned me on to this site. it looks to be an extremely active site, unlike some other (non-gun) ones that i belong to. i started shooting in 1993 (in California of all places) and just got deeper and deeper into the hobby/sport/obsession or whatever you want to...
