My cat got into the top of my closet and peed on a Jennings .25acp in a box. I found it some time later as a mess of white powder and rusted metallic bits. Ah, the days of idiotic purchases. They served the purpose of keeping the ignorant from doing stupid things. I think I got three rounds off...

I was in a local gunstore+range Sunday on the day of the mass shooting at Greenwood Park Mall at around 1pm. Walked out around 2:30, delay due to NICS with a Taurus GC3. They had it on sale and there is a $25 rebate from Taurus. Final price with rebate is 239+ tax. I have great difficulty...

Briefly, now that the supreme court is a tad more constitutional leaning I expect a large swath of good results. I was highly concerned Kavanaugh and Barret were not what we were fed. I'm not wholly convinced but the recent rulings are a very good sign.

Guy Relford is an attorney who did an enormous job getting Indiana constitutional carry passed. I just missed most of his show on the "safer communities act" and the podcast won't be up for a month. You could send an email and ask for a link to his take on it. What I did hear he sounded a bit...

I can't say it's perfect but when I got the safety warranty repair done for a 7.5" Beretta Neos the trigger was much improved and as an added bonus the safety actually worked all the time. If you've not gotten yours fixed I'd recommend it.

It is finally a win and I will do my best to reward those who worked so hard for it. Good 'ol Holcrumb sent his oath breaking lackey the head of the state police to get it squashed and that other oath breaker on the committee did their bidding but the legislature did an end run around them and...

New is under 250. The laser is almost as much if you got the fancy one and had it installed and bore sited. So under 500 or so.

Agree on this. Permatex does not hold as well. 242 is good for ferrous. 243 is somewhat resistant to oil contamination but you should use a degreaser. I prefer this as it will work with both ferrous and non-ferrous and does not need a primer with non-ferrous. It is however a bit more expensive...

I stumbled on this site doing some research on some ammo a friend sent me that I thought might be more valuable than the already exorbitant price online and found this site. After scrolling through page after page of "Out of Stock" I found two boxes of Montgomery Wards Hawthorne .22lr and three...

There is a milspec on parkerizing and it should give you the thickness variations for a large list of variables. I could not find an electronic copy on the dod server for those so it's probably obsolete. You might find it at a gunshow.

Scroll down for Brownells offering. I've used that for the lugs and Ed's Red for the rest of the gun. On a persnickety .22lr bolt action I used the factory grease for an Epson printer meant for the bar the print head road on. It is high temp and is quite remarkable in keeping the rifle running...

There is J-B® NON-EMBEDDING BORE CLEANING COMPOUND And there is J-B® BORE BRIGHT

The military has never embraced it. They did test the concept. Hydrogen is out as it embrittles metal. This guy was assassinated for providing such technology to the Iraqis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Bull
