    Who knows about Leupold Scopes?

    The difference is in the adjustments. Rifleman's are 1/2", the VX-1's and up are 1/4"

    777 For a Revolver

    I use full charges of 777 3F in my Ruger, a steel repro 1858 Rem 44 cal, and a steel repro Navy model 36 cal. In my brass open top guns I usually shoot Pyrodex but I have used reduced loads of 777 3F also

    Can 32 S&W (short) ammo still be found?

    I know Remington ran a batch of 32 S&W this summer. We got a case at the gunshop I work at. Once people knew we had it in stock again it flew out of there. We wound up getting another case just to try and keep some in stock. As far as 32 long we have no problems getting them and have a few...

    Screaming deal on M&P Shields

    They wholesale from around $340 normally so maybe a few jobbers/wholesalers got a good deal on them from S&W and are passing the savings onto the dealers. Maybe they the fixed recalled models?

    Midway dropping "FFL dealer" pricing

    I got an email from Midway effective 1-1-14 they will no longer be offering dealer discounts for FFL holders. Granted it wasn't much of a discount but it was something. This applies to type 01 FFL holders as well as us 03 C&R FFL holders.

    For Those Of You Who Prefer A Pietta '58

    I have 2 1858 Pietta's One 5.5" 44 I got from Cabelas for $179 and one 36 cal 8" I got from Dixiegunworks.com for I believe $249. Both are put together very nicely. They are not as nice as my Ruger Old Army but for the price I am very happy with both Piettas and will buy another. When...

    Pocket 9mm suggestions for guns without issues

    Pacmayer makes a grip sleeve specificly for the LC9. It makes a heck of a difference in the feel of the gun and slips on very easily. It costs less than 10 bucks.

    Do I need a .45GAP?

    I have a friend who works for the NYS Police. He said they are transisioning away from the GAP. The guns are being replaced with 45acp's. So there should be a glut of Police trade ins in the near future. I believe there are around 6000 troopers statewide

    Thoughts on the 681?

    The New York State Police were issued them in the mid Eighties. If you're lucky enough you'll come across one of them. They were marked on the side NYSP. I shot my buddies when he first became a trooper, very nice handling gun even with full power loads. Good luck with your search!!
