I said I would let you know my thoughts when I got my Taurus but I never did. :D Anyway, the fit/finish of the gun is superb. The blue is really nice... really dark. The best blue job I have ever seen on a gun (but that isnt really saying much). The trigger/action felt like someone...

I'm the gun guy at work- though the good kind. To my surprise (in Baltimore, MD especially), I have been well received. I dont preach about it and only provide my opinion/insight when asked or if I feel that I have something useful to add. I organized a work shoot and let everyone who...

Beyond all of the other outright lies in this article, did anyone else laugh out loud when they read this part? Why are knives on this list and since when have they been regulated like cars and drugs? I dont know too much about the author personally, but I bet he wouldnt be too happy if they...

Had just received my first pistol (Walther P99 - 9mm) and was still living at my parents house at the time. My mom was very anti-gun and it took me and my Dad forever to convince her that it was ok to have a pistol in the house. Loving every second of holding that Walther, I played with it...

They are, but apparently you have to be 21 to buy a pistol gripped shotgun in a gunstore. I dont know why, but thats how it was explained to me at a local shop.

Funny you mention this... Going to Dicks to pick up a Pardner Protector as soon as I get off work (my wifes christmas present to me). They have it on sale for $159 with an extra $10 off coupon. It will be hard to beat that price anywhere. I have read that it is a very, very serviceable...

I think I may have read that thread on TFL. Apparently, a certain run of Redhawks had a problem with corrosive barrel thread materials (grease or loc-tite or something). Thats the only thing that makes sense with how this happened. AFAIK, the barrels and cylinders on Rugers revolvers are...

I am far from a revolver expert (I am just kind of getting into them, actually), but I doubt even the biggest S&W fanboy would say that their revolvers are made as well as they used to be. Lots more MIM parts and less refined finishes... basically the "easy" places to save time and money...

Yep, If you have the funds for the Smith, by all means buy it. I'm sure it will be a great gun and last you several lifetimes. The 586 you linked to is probably the best looking S&W in current production, IMO. If you are finding the Smith a little too expensive, look at the Taurus. While QC...

A topic that brings up both happy and sad memories... The sad: I received my first firearm from my father when I was seventeen. Unfortunately I received due to the fact that he died on the day that I graduated from High School. It was his Mossberg 500 deer gun and it was just about his most...

There is no doubt in my mind that, generally speaking, S&W makes a better product than Taurus. That said, I do not think that S&W makes a $200-300 better product than Taurus so I chose a Taurus 66 as my first revolver (in blue, which S&W doesnt deem popular enough to produce any longer...

Yeah, something seems to be fishy... If the gun is indeed transferrable, buy it without thinking twice. You could rebuild the entire gun around the actual receiver and still come out over 10 grand under what they are going for. Be very cautious about this though; you dont want to go...

Wal-Mart definitely carries it, just not in the shooting section. If you look in the "laundry" section (where hangers and ironing boards are), they sell containers designed to keep moisture out of closets. Thats what I have been using. The container is good for 60 or 90 days and is about 4...

Hello All, I am seriously considering a Taurus Model 66 in .357 magnum as my first revolver. I would be buying the 4" blued model and would eventually be matching it with a Marlin lever gun in either 30-30 or .357. I have already done the AR's and plastic fantastic pistols and am now in the...

RRA here... I am sure that there is nothing wrong with DPMS and I would not hesitate to buy one just on the name but I wouldnt trade my RRA's for any other semi AR15 (including Colt). The RRA's are extremely well made. They have a very tight fit and both of mine (middy 5.56 and M4 style...

Maybe you should ask if its new or surplus and when it was manufactured if it is surplus. I personally dont have any experience with Norinco, but I'm sure with that information, someone will be able to help.

So last night there was some movie review show on. It was a british chick and some dude. Have no idea who they were but they must not be too popular because they were on at like 1 a.m. Anyway, the British chick starts going off about how violence does not deserve violence, how people should...

Motorcycles, Knives and Flashlights. I pretty much fit the mold. Wife to be says I'm insane. I say Im an American. :D

I'd go for the .223 even if you already have one. The .223 is just a more accurate cartridge (and whats the point of having an inaccurate rifle?). It also is more accurate over a longer distance. Beyond $$$ factory loadings, the cheap 39 is steel cased plinking ammo. Nothing to really get...

I'm about 90% sure that it is to mount another one of those dart guns to it. Kind of like "stacking" them on top of each other for more firepower. You can apparently build huge foam dart shooting monstrosities (sp?). I have one of the "nerf" brand dart guns for my cubicle at work. It has a...
