    Stupidest idea for gun control yet

    25 year minimum for not locking up your firearm inside your locked house? Dangerous principal when they might be the ones deciding what “crimes” you’ve committed. This idea continues to demonize firearms. If my firearm is not evil why is the sentencing longer? A firearm is a tool, the...

    6.8 SPC 6.5 Grendal

    I don’t have any insight, but I am currently making this decision myself. Started on the 6.8 side, but now I’m leaning 6.5. My build would primarily be for punching paper. The above information has been helpful.

    S&W R8 Moon Clip Help

    My R8 does not like moon clips. Firearm came with 3 that measure between .024” and .026.” With the .024” the cylinder will barely close and rotate. I have found some moon clips that measure .020” supposedly. When they talk about brass compatibility are they talking about the thickness of the...

    P239 is Disco - My Unexpected Love

    Just found out my beloved Sig Sauer P239 is being produced no more. Heartbreaking. I never wanted to love this gun, but here we are. It was an impulse buy 8-9 years ago because I wanted something in 357SIG and the P239 is what I found. Sure it’s ugly. Yes the magazine tops off in a hurry...

    Model 70 Scope Rail Help *SOLVED*

    Spoke with Winchester and Warne. Confirmed that 3.5” is the correct spacing for a .308 in this rifle. Warne said that Winchester puts the .308 in WSM actions. Apparently SA doesn’t always mean SA cartridges. Thank you to all who replied.

    New Model 70 WSM Scope Spacing on SA? *SOLVED*

    Spoke with Winchester and Warne. Confirmed that 3.5” is the correct spacing for a .308 in this rifle. Warne said that Winchester puts the .308 in WSM actions. Apparently SA doesn’t always mean SA cartridges. Thank you to everyone who replied.

    Model 70 Scope Rail Help *SOLVED*

    I already purchased the one it should have been. That’s when I discovered the fit issue. I don’t know enough to know if the WSM receiver height is different front to back vs the SA to cause zeroing issues. Wondering if my firearm was made “differently” or “incorrectly.” Sounds like it is...

    Model 70 Scope Rail Help *SOLVED*

    I just purchased a new Model 70 Extreme Weather in .308. The center scope mount holes measure 3.5” (WSM) instead of 3.25” (SA). Is this an issue or do I just need to buy what the gun measures instead of what it “should” be? Thanks

    New Model 70 WSM Scope Spacing on SA? *SOLVED*

    I just purchased a new Model 70 Extreme Weather in .308. Purchased a Warne picatinny rail and it does not fit. From what I can find via EGW center hole spacing should be 3.25(SA), while the gun measures 3.5(WSM). Front and rear hole spacing is correct, just not at the same time. Has anyone...

    Barnaul "Brown Bear" ammo. Good, or not so much?

    I run Silver Bear when possible, but have not had any issues with Brown Bear when used. Silver Bear is a little easier to spot spent cases for cleanup.

    AK DRACO issue resolved?

    Hey guys new member. I have a DRACO 7.62x39 pistol that has had some FTF double feed issues. I believe that I've tracked this down to the ejector not clasping the fed round and thus not going into battery. I soaked, cleaned, and oiled the bolt and so far seems to be letting the bolt carrier...
