    medium power pellet rifle

    Like to keep under 100, go to 200 if need be. Last one I shot, rated at 1200, even with a magnum pellet, was moving much faster than I wanted (i.e. pretty much ruined the target).

    medium power pellet rifle

    I know Gamo made one, but it appears discontinued and I can't remember the name to search. Regardless, what I'm looking for is a .177, running 8-900 fps, with noise abatement built in. Prefer spring, willing to consider pneumatic. Any ideas? Thanks, all.

    I need a place to hunt (IL)

    Located in Chicagoland, willing to travel as necessary, have hunted Green River and Iroquois County in the past, with mixed results.

    I need a place to hunt (IL)

    My guess is that they're catering to bird hunters, then deer. Small furry things aren't high priority.

    I need a place to hunt (IL)

    Anyone willing to open up their land for small game hunting and/or trapping (rabbit, squirrel, upland bird, possibly furbearers)? Myself and possibly one other hunter (it's his first season, and I don't want to eat squirrels taken before the first frost kills the parasites, so state ground is...

    Is there a name for this kind of finish?

    I think that's a result of the heat treatment. Probably wrong though.

    need a coach

    Picked up a very large frame semi auto pistol (yes, that one), and my friend who was going to teach me how to master it died unexpectedly. Looking for someone in the Chicago-land area who can teach me to tame the beast. Anybody? Please PM. Thanks.

    How often does Ruger make stainless MKIII's? What's the next best alternative?

    Could always try teflon coating as well. Not cheap, but it does the trick.

    history lesson

    While I freely admit to being a Ruger guy, I don't know much of the mechanical history. So educate me: what led to the development of the gp100 over the security six? Thanks, all.

    Went to Black Rhino Concealment, haven't had a chance to try it out yet.

    15-5 Trigger Won't Reset

    If you do end up opening the side plate, don't pry it out. Tap the left side of the frame with something that won't mar, like a wooden screwdriver handle, and after a few taps the plate will come off.
