I have a 2.25" Smith 66 that has the large, 3 finger Uncle Mikes rubber grips on it.
These grips are comfy but with the short barrel they look kind of odd and they wouldn't lend themselves to carrying this thing well. I like the pack this gun in the woods and sometimes in the winter time as...
I know Springfield used to make the M6 "Survival" gun. I'm looking for something similar to that. This will be a hiking/small game gun, needs to be lightweight. Single shot is fine.
Does anybody else make something like this?
I have never owned a 'blued' handgun before. Plenty of my long guns are, but for the most part I've had stainless or alloy revolvers, and my semi auto pistols have been treated with tennifer or something similar.
I have found a killer deal on a 4" GP100 locally, but it's blued. This gun is...
I generally won't shoot reloads unless I've rolled them myself. I don't expect anyone else to shoot my reloads either.
I think you should just sell the brass (to me), and apply it toward reloading equipment for next time or more factory ammo. :)
Thanks for the info guys. I have narrowed it down to a Savage bolt gun with accu trigger.
I'm trying to decide on calibers now.
- 17HMR, while more expensive than than the others, is still a fairly inexpensive caliber in the grand scheme of firearms
- 17HM2 is quite a bit cheaper, but much...
Bolt gun it is. I'm a big fan of them anyway.
I know I need both eventually (17 and 22), but for now, I'm trying to get a gun built up to take prairie dog hunting with me in the spring.
I have a nice Savage 10FP in 223 rem that is going to be my 'main' gun out there, but if I can get a few...
Thanks for the info. The savage I had was accurate, but I couldn't get the thing to stop jamming. I sold it to fund other projects anyway.
You guys pretty much confirmed what I thought I was going to hear. I want to set up a cheaper rimfire for range plinking, some squirrel hunting and maybe...
Highly unlikely Dicks will do it. Every one I've been to sells long guns only and they do not do transfers. They are just a general sporting goods store that happens to sell guns really.
Good luck getting it sorted out!
I know for the most part a semi gun of the same quality as a bolt gun will be less accurate. A lot of this is shooter skill as well, but it's pretty much accepted that the bolt guns are more accurate.
I want to buy a fun rimfire rifle and set it up as a target gun and maybe even some varmint...
I find 38 to be easiest to load. Straight wall cases, large enough to handle easily, brass lasts a long time and you retain all of it when shooting a revolver. Guns are generally able to shoot 357 loads which means you have less chance of blowing your gun up. You still need to be careful, but...
