Has anyone else saw this? Think it's going to happen? Still take two years and a different president. http://www.al.com/outdoors/index.ssf/2015/05/civilian_marksmanship_program.html

Had same problem with older Walther P22. I was able to find out that the firing pin had a spur or rough spot on the side. Sometimes it would catch in the firing pin channel causing a failure to fire. I removed the firing pin and used a small file to smooth it out, this simple fix was the cure...

1. You must get a sponsor, either in the house or senate. 2. It must pass committee, probably judiciary - look at the some of the fruit loop names on that. Remember committee can add to it, take away or change the wording. 3. It must pass three readings in the house or senate before it goes...

How long is long range, depends on where you live. And how inexpensive is inexpensive, depends on how rich you are. I guess my question is want do you want it to do, and how much do you want to spend.

I planned on putting a Trijicon Accupoint on a 308 bolt rifle. Wanted to get the 20x and love everything about the scope, including Trijicon's website that says it is assembled in the USA. Got ready to buy one and picked it up at Cabelas only to see clearly on the side it says Made in Japan...

Not unless they get an administration change. The military sent out a letter to agencies that got M16 through the lend lease program, wanting them checked to see if any had tritium sights and to return the tritium sights because they were "RADIOACTIVE" and "RESTRICTED". It was almost like they...

Department price on a plane glock with plastic sights, common model like 22 or 17, is $362.00. Individual officer price is $396.00. While wholesale seems to ride around $450.00, and average retail from what I have seen in my area has been from $499.00 to $550.00. Yes the LE model comes with 3...

Glock recommends the recoil spring get replaced every 2000. Some may think this is a lot, although at about $4.00 a pop it's no big deal to me. Your other springs should still be good, although if this is your carry weapon and replacing the other springs gives you a piece of mind then go for...

Guess what I learned after buying a green laser, especially since you live in Montana this will affect you. Go to Lasermax website and look at the operation temperature of a green laser, definite not Montana friendly. This is true for all brands of green lasers. I know the red is not as...

Neither round is a dog, both leave confidence for self defense. The .357 feels a little sharper on recoil. Although my experience is brass is more readily available in 40. And the 40 has proven easier for me to reload.

This is exactly how Ruger handled my LCP. I got a box and called, UPS showed up the next day and took it next day air. When Ruger was done with it, came straight home to me. The legal resource I like is NRA.org, click on the ILA tab and go to gun laws. Lots of current info on federal and...

I've shot ported Glocks at night, and they actually are not that bad. I felt no affect on my night vision. Although my greatest concern about self defense, remember you have to be able to shoot, move, and COMMUNICATE. The db level increase of a ported barrel seems to put things that were...

I was told that Sig upgraded the P232 mostly to get it approved for California Sales. I looked on the California approved list before posting this and noticed the P230 is not there, while the P232 is approved. I could be wrong about this and someone might want to check my work.

Mr. Michaelmcgo, it isn't a panic issue as much as a search for the truth. Does the Glock have flaws? yes it does, all man made things do. And until the Heavens deliver us a handgun every pistol in existence will have a weakness of some sort. The Glock argument almost reminds me of my friends...

Try this, we are not all built the same. Find a way to shoot both and your mind will be made up. In a way it takes out all the bias.
