I searched through the forum but didn't see someone mention my problem. I duracoated my XD Service slide and barrel and apparently put it on too thick. When I put the slide together and on the frame it locked up. Now I can not get the slide off the frame, any suggestions for how to remove...

I bought 1 20ga Raptor for my girlfriend and 1 20ga Raptor for my 'don't feel like beating up my B-guns.' I like them so far, they shoot well and are really reliable. Also I paid $185 apiece for them brand new.

I see you are in Dallas, I'd keep an eye out for a used gun as there are always a ton here in Houston/Dallas/Austin. Remington 1100 or 1187, mossberg 900, browning semi autos, beretta A300/A400, the list goes on. I'd personally suggest a gas operated semi auto. Less recoil than inertia, pumps...

I was trying to find a skeet range in Houston that you have had good experiences with. I googled it and found a couple options but wanted to see what the great people of THR thought, and if you had any specific recommendations or harsh critiques of a range. Thanks in advance.

Where did you find some values? I'm only finding browning gold hunter when I've looked. Thanks.

What do you think about a trade the browning for a springfield xdm 3.8 9mm?

My friend is looking to sale or trade his Browning Gold 5L in very good used condition. It is the gloss wood with blued metal with ribbed barrel and several chokes. The wood is in perfect shape, no gouges or scratches, the metal has some places where the blued has worn thin but not much and not...

I was wondering where reloaders in the greater houston area buy bullets and powder? Or if there are any good places online to find bullets or powders?

Also, what loading blocks would you gentleman suggest?

Thanks for the suggestions! I already have a set of calipers and about 10 books on reloading. Just wanted to see what all you had found to be helpful and such. I'm gonna have to look into the baking plates. Thanks.

Alright so I am finally getting my reloading equipment, took a lot longer than originally thought due to unforeseen circumstances. I'm getting into it slowly so I'm buying the Lee starter kit, electronic scale, a variety of reloading books, 300AAC dies, and .270WIN dies. Is there anything...

Craig we need more pics! That looks awesome and vent hoods are very smart.

I was taught from a young age to rely on logic and reason more than emotions. Almost every anti gun person that I've seen or read about lacks logic and reasoning and is ruled by emotions. When someone says they "feel safer knowing there aren't guns in the house", its emotion hence the "feel"...

I feel like you should see if there are any ranges or such that will let you try a couple shotguns in your area. It's hard to really know how a gun works with or for you without trying it out. Also it doesn't matter whether or not a gun is expensive or not as long as its of good quality and...

Nice pick up! Give us some pics of it cleaned up and a range report.
