    I’m done with Remington

    This thread has given me hope that idealism still exists; at least here on this forum, but unfortunately not among manufacturers, attorneys, and most everyone else. I have read many posts here which praise the service of some manufacturers, but in today’s world, those are exceptions. Most of...

    When did use of hearing protection become standard practice?

    I just turned 60. As a child, I never remember using or even seeing any type of hearing or eye protection. Shot various types of guns with my Dad through the 70’s the same way, but always in an outdoor, hunting- type setting. As suggested in an earlier post, I am pretty sure you would have...

    Do you correct someone if they refer to a magazine as a clip?

    I just found out a week ago, (from my kids), I am "not supposed to" use punctuation in text messages. Oh, the shame! I saw mention of the term "gun" in one or two posts, but the one I still haven't gotten over is not being allowed to use the word pistol in reference to a handgun with a...

    Squirrels in city limits. What are my options?

    There are quite a few threads over in the airgun section if you decide to go that route. From the way you describe the situation, you may have to employ multiple methods. You already know my recommendation.....

    Century Arms C308

    Anyone here have any experience/comments regarding the parts kits sold by Sarco? I too have been tempted by the Century models. http://www.e-sarcoinc.com/Issue28%20(12-1-17).pdf

    Corticosteroids and shooting

    I can't help you much as far as direct shooting experience, but as an RA sufferer, there are plenty of short and long term psychological symptoms associated with the use of these types of meds- IMO, greatly under reported and not well documented. You hear a lot about the long term stuff...

    buds gun shop any good?

    I have had mostly good experience with them. Shipping has been extremely quick, and prices are fairly low in comparison to others I have tried. The whole deal with two different prices is a little irritating to me- it costs more to use a credit card than to send a check or money order. You...

    Multi tools

    I emailed Leatherman recently to ask what the charges would be to repair my 30 year old original. They told me that even though the warranty says 25 years they will fix it for free. I have had better success with the durability of the Leatherman. I also have a Victorinox that I like very...

    Trimports is now importing the SAR .357 magnum revolver

    Does anybody here have a feel for what service would be like from this manufacturer? Do they have centers for repair in the U.S., or would you have to ship international? thanks

    Who doesn't have an AR15?

    I was preparing to buy one last Oct., just because. If I do get one now, it will be built from parts- but it seems like the parts prices have not come down as much as the ready made rifles.

    Kel-Tec PF-9 slide broken; giving up on this platform

    on the bright side- you stopped shooting at just the right time.... a real physics experiment in the making.

    Identifying Mfg.-Replica Walker

    Thanks for the information. It still seems strange to me that a manufacturer would not find some discrete but distinguishing way of marking their product. It looks like the consensus is that I have an ASM. Here is the piece in question if I can get it to upload:

    Identifying Mfg.-Replica Walker

    I am hoping to get some help in identifying my inherited Walker. It was purchased around 1970 by my father. I have read up on this subject, and some people have indicated that quite a few were made without any manufacturer I.D. I have some memories of the box that it came in, but that box is...

    Local Gun Shop vs. Home Security of Guns?

    Well, my hernias start to spasm just at the mention of heavy safes. If someone gets in our house and has the time to look, they will find most of mine, but I don’t have a huge collection, and my home defense guns are spread about strategically, so it would take some time to clean me out. If I...
