Sure. It just strikes me as similar to buying a Ferrari and then putting knobbies on for use as a lawn tractor. Yes, it will do, but......
The difference is having the choice.
I believe you have hit the nail on the head. A fellow with even just a bit of experience can get his scope-sighted rifle to hit where he wants,...
I suppose the outrage is that the gentleman bought a Model 41 and then treated it like a Mk II - leaving the cognoscenti to wonder why he didn't...
That looks great. I have used the stuff myself. In my experience it may need to be renewed every ten years or so, depending on how much fondling,...
Aside from the main point - which is a good one - I am terrified that we have become, at least temporarily, the barter economy that the tinfoil...
If that comment was out of line then I apologize. But you've bought one of the finest target pistols made, presumably spending four figures, and...
Whoever told you that has no idea what he is talking about. To the best of my knowledge, every brand of competition .22 uses some type of wax. In...
Yeah, I'm also a little confused about "fixing" one of the finest pistols made before even shooting it. If it's unreliable now the OP will never...
Those few of us who still enjoy iron sights tend to insist on high quality. That means that even on rifles fitted with irons at the factory, we...
These are great guns. My example is reliable with any decent ammunition, though I stick with standard velocity stuff. I have not needed to make...
I rarely need better than .001" resolution for handloading. I have some fairly high quality tools for other purposes, but my cheap 40 year old...
There is no one resource. There are several good "all-around" books for the tyro. Lyman's "cast bullet handbook" is very good for that aspect of...
I missed out on a Bowen-made K-frame in .25 ACP, a few years back. It was such a silly thing that no one seemed interested. It sat in the display...
Fifteen grains of H110 behind the 160 cast would be (and often is) my choice. The load needs a maximum crimp, but gives top-end performance. (As...
Here in southern California, there are metal detectors at every entrance. That ensures that there won't be any guns at all in the place - it's...
My one and only experience with them was similar to the OP's. I also did not find them any more convenient to carry or load as compared to a flask...
Very generally speaking, when discussing lower end scopes, a bit of additional money does tend to buy a lot of extra quality.
As already noted, I suspect this is an easy at-home fix. On a more general note, I tend to farm most things out to the local gunsmiths. This can...
I'm with CraigC on this one. It's a neat idea - I'd love to have a companion to my .500 revolver - but it's awfully expensive, and to my mind,...
Separate names with a comma.
