    Congrats on your new lens! The lens has a very nice bokeh. I like it! What kind of lens and camera if you don't mind me asking?

    New Years resolution--drop weight on my MK11 BV

    I have a 2011 or 2012 Savage MKII BV. This is similar to a 93. It has a beautiful and good feeling laminate stock and a heavy barrel. It has a BSA Sweet 22 scope. The rifle is very accurate. The problem is it is heavy. The heavy barrel seems to be the culprit as the gun is very front heavy...

    Recommend a lever gun in .357/.38 Special

    +1 to the Marlin 1894C 357 Mag. Older style without safety. Add a peep sight and you'll have a blast. It's short barrel makes it easy to control (coming from a petite 5'4" woman). Here's a 1980. I shoot mostly 38s due to price. BTW, the electric tape padding was added from previous owner, but I...

    Opinion on an unfired late 60s Remington 870

    Good feedback. I will look into a mag extender if anything. I guess it's time to de-virginize it and go shoot some clays ;-)

    Opinion on an unfired late 60s Remington 870

    It is beautiful as is. After hearing these comments im just thinking should i keep it that way n buy a tactical shotgun. Its open bore n 20" for those who r curious.

    Opinion on an unfired late 60s Remington 870

    I have a beautiful, never been shot 12 gauge shotgun. It doesn't have sentimental value to me. I target shoot only. It was a good deal and I thought it would be a good "cabin in woods" protection gun as well as a shooter. I believe it's a 1968. The wood and blue is in great shape. I know this...

    Shooting .357 Magnums

    Female here with tiny wrists and I can attest that your Ruger with 357 Mag at 158 gr load is fine. I find I target shoot more with 38s just due to the cost. I have a Ruge 4" Security Six and a Smith 6" Model 19--both are fun with 357. Yes, they are louder and yes, they will recoil a bit more...

    Recommendation on a 45 ACP for woman

    ugaarguy, you make great points with forged vs, casting and Kimber's safety. I need to get over the poor user-experience of Springfield's website which is why I dissed them from my short-list. I really do like the PX9151LP. I'll see if I can get a hold of one in town to get a feel for it. Thanks!

    Recommendation on a 45 ACP for woman

    Torn between Kimber Stainless II and ATI Thunderbolt. PRICE IS SURPRISLING CLOSE. KIMBER....its a Kimber what else to say. ATI is more aggressive in styling but is 3 lbs...heavy but would help with recoil. Help me decide.

    Recommendation on a 45 ACP for woman

    Love the Government (hmmm never thought I'd say that) I mean I love that Colt Government. Any opinions on Kimber Stainless II out there?

    Recommendation on a 45 ACP for woman

    I do not plan to carry it This gun is for target shooting and protecting household. Target/range shooting is primary.

    Recommendation on a 45 ACP for woman

    I'll fill you in on what I currently shoot and please comment on what you think a good 45 ACP handgun would be for an average sized hand woman. My biggest concern is hand fit/control over recoil. My price range is $700-1100. -CZ 75...love this SS 9mm gun even though it's slightly to big for...
