m110 howitzer 8 inch gun be in the right spot off the muzzle break and the compression wave will blow out a windshield. but when you are tired enough you will sleep like a baby next to one during a fire mission.

when i was in high school we used to clean the shooting teams target 52c s about twice a year. now if i remember right the round count was between 4000~6000 rds when they got cleaned. bolt actions well if i think about it maybe once a decade. now semi autos when i start seeing trouble. after a...

ruger mark III target of what ever barrel length you chose. have 2 that i hunt squirrels and rabbits with. well mine are the older mark IIs one is a 6 7/8th tapered and the other is the gov bull barrel model. have a single six but when i go to put meat on the table the markII get pulled out...

me i would blow it off. the nics check is no big deal and only a phone call. i can understand a shop being a little careful these days. wait till you have a shop tell you are trying to do a straw buy on a c&r with 2 c&r holders. you would be sirprised the amount of shops that will not recognize...

a mac of any flavor is a fun range gun if you don't mind a brick with sights that has no real good way to hang on to. i have a semi auto mac m10 in 45 acp and yes the grin is hard to wipe off. the sterling semi auto pistol in 7.62x25 looks tempting also. large capacity smg based pistols can be...

my vote in the non traditional colors is dura coat http://www.lauerweaponry.com/item-detail-colorchoice.cfm?category=220&colorchoice=dcr_66.jpg&colortype=stock done 2 pink ARs with duracoat pink lady. and yes if you want a nice pink instead of a dirty pink you do need to use the white under coat.

sounds like sear slippage and hammer follow though. check the trigger pin and also check the sear/hammer mating surface. as it is a brand new gun get a hold of the of the retailer/manufacture.

if i only buy one gun in three years i have broke even in the transfer fees. now were i live i have a hard time finding a dealer that will do transfers. especially on c&r type stuff so for me it was a no brainier. the savings at some of the suppliers is just icing on the cake. last gunbroker...

next time she brings up you leaving the gun in the car ask her "what if the car gets broken into??" then explain how the "apr fools day" joke really got you thinking about that. if done tactfully she won't have any ground to stand on other then the normal girl stuff that makes you lose the...

when shot high power i keep logs on my rifles. now i just keep a general running total.

falling block, break open are as simple as they get. now in an auto loader a true blow back open bolt is right up there. i have a semi auto 22lr that has 2 trigger parts a barrel a bolt with no extractor or firing pin. just a cap on the end and spring. the mag is the most complicated part of...

just a side note on the ffl. i have dealt with an ffl who would not open a box. he would just put it on the side and wait for you to show up and let you open the box and let you do the inspection. now is this 11 days after you shipped it or 11 days after the ffl received it or 11 days after he...

yep what is right for me may not be right for you. i lived in a place for awhile were i packed 24/7 and every room had a couple of guns. now not so much. heck were i am now the keys stay in the pickup and very rarely is there a loaded gun in the house. i will be getting a ccw soon more to get...

when you compare the 30 carbine to it's true contemporaries, IMHO, the subguns rather then rifles or pistols. the 30 carbine round is a potent round but like the 7.62x25 it suffers from a problem with over penetration with a FMJ bullet. with a good soft point bullet it is much better. remember...

bought many and would buy again. as typed cosmetic wear is the biggest problem. one other thing is some depts will put stamp/brand a property number on the frame. the last batch of glocks i seen from the mich dept of corrections had armory numbers branded on them. not to bad but the pistols were...
