    Buying my first AR15. Need input

    I've been happy with both Spikes and Stag. The Spikes rifle I have, I put together myself. It was very easy and I got the features I wanted without paying for stuff I didnt want. PSA has great deals and that's what I would probably do if I ever wanted another AR

    Best 1911 for under $1500? TRP?

    I have about 1500 rounds through my Springfield MC Operator. Runs great. I only have 250 rounds through my Dan Wesson. It's had a few teething problems but it's much tighter and has better attention to detail than the Springfield. Once I have the DW broken in, ill carry it. The MC...

    Browning 1911 .380

    I may consider one as a replacement for my colt .380 government. I love the little colt but is definitely an up close gun as accuracy stinks past 5 yards. I still carry it but feel like it's a poor compromise and am starting to carry a Dan Wesson ECO 9 as soon as I get a good holster for it...

    Gun cleaning

    I won't carry a clean gun. Maybe I didn't put it back together again. I don't keep them dirty dirty but my carry gun and night stand gun gets test fired after cleaning.

    Some SA Range Officer questions

    I put a Heine ez lock sight on mine and I put a different thumb safety that wasn't as sharp on it too. I haven't carried it but certainly would in its current configuration. Runs great.

    Why aren't there BHP clones in the $450 range?

    I wish I'd keep my DalyHP. The finish is really nice the sights are good and it is easy to c&s parts it. I sold it bc I.hated the roll Mark. Short sided of me. It really was a nice gun and would have been perfect to keep in car or pack.
