Dan Wessons are very solid and can be found in your price range - the best value in revolvers.

I've got a Mini and absolutely love it. It has never ever failed, shoots about 2 MOA, and is really good for what I use it for. I've got bolt actions to shoot the lights out, the Mini is for filling the air with lead. It eats cheap UMC ammo (no steel) and, finally, is not an AR. Try this...

Don't have those two you mentioned, but I do have the Stevens 200 and Marlin XL7, both considered budget rifles, in 30-06. Both are great shooters, stock triggers can be made nice. The Marlin does have a much more user friendly recoil pad.

I've got 2 - a 3-9 BDC on a 30-06 and a 6-18 on a .223. I have about 140 rounds through the 30-06 with it and probably 100 rounds with the .223. Both hold their zeros very well and the clarity is what is to be expected of a lower-end scope. Both get a bit fuzzy at the higher powers. I've...

People sure seem to like their 17s.

A friend of mine said manufactureres were going to make guns in this caliber again. Any input?

Heard about the S&W scandium 44 by a great story teller. Probably hurt me more than him.

-When you buy tequila bottles shaped like shotguns and pistols to display in the house.

-When your fantasy football fee is waived because you just bought another 30-06 and couldn't afford it without taking a loan. -When the gf's hands are too small for your pistols and you buy the ones you want, telling her you thought they'd fit. -When you are invited to the sporting clay range...

You gotta have the log and pictures 1) for bragging on the boards (you know the guy who is showing off his 1911 among his 27 others in the same picture) and 2) for insurance. You can't take a picture of something that isn't there.

I'd like to have the full bird someday, but not the shiny obnoxious ones that are out there. They would be perfect for not-so-concealed carry.

I picked one up last year at Cabela's for $300 and it looks like it was shot about twice. Hell of a pick up at the time and wouldn't mind having another...

When it comes to arthritis problems, I have a different opinion. When I or my dad have a flare up, it seems to hurt when you use your fingers, wrists, elbows, etc. in the usual way. I have a Ruger 22/45 that you can pull back by squeezing between your pointer and middle finders with little...

If you find a baby desert eagle, try it out. It's pretty rare where I live and others that try it ooh and aah about it.

I have both the Stevens 200 and Marlin XL7 (long action, I know). Both are very good, especially for the price point, but I prefer the Stevens . You can tune the trigger a bit and I may have lucked out, but I like the stocker very much. The Marlin does have a nice stock butt pad, though...
