    Bud's gun frustration

    In defense of Bud's, and all other retailers who do business ethically, the organization should train up some new staff. Normally working online with them has not been all bad. After buying product from them several times in the last couple of years, there was one instance where communications...

    What's your "never buy" gun?

    Buy what trips your trigger. I like ruger and Smith Wesson wheelguns but I won't buy either companys autoloaders. Any Colt is fine with me, auto or wheelgun. I like Brownings and Sig's. I have never, ever had a problem with a Sig. A P220 railed, a P232 (for the wife) , a P245 and a P239...

    Help me with my gun ADD...

    Keep the Sig! If you need something slightly smaller for Concealed Carry, consider the Sig P239 in .40. It's a solid shooter. Eventually for myself, I am looking a a 1911 w a 4" or 4.5" bbl. Haven't had one in years, but just want a 1911 to have it. Wish I could afford an Ed Brown, but I am...

    Recommendations on M-4 purchase

    I am very happy with my S&W M&P 15. I got a good one. Accurate, good trigger pull from the factory, solid as a Colt. But thats my opinion.

    What can I do with a Mini-14?

    There isn't much you can do with it other than waste a lot of ammo. I keep mine for "home defense". I put a hogue black synthetic stock on mine. I tried scoping in, but that wasnt worth a hill of beans. The iron sightss kinda suck in low light. put a flash suppressor on it. Accuracy, has...
