    When am I in the wrong

    Amongst the buying frenzy a friend of mine is really wanting to get his hands on an AR. He owns a few handguns and we have been to the range together. He cant find what he wants and asked me if I would sell mine. Now I am not looking to sell mine but I am certainly not married to it. I do...

    Why trim this case

    Ok I don't have a pic of it handy but I can grab one, not much to see really. I am new to the whole 'roll your own' thing and I am stocking some components. I recently received an order from Graf and Sons of several items including some once fired brass. The order was for a semi-auto pistol...

    Which one is overlooked or over shadows

    Almost without fail this happens every time I am discussing or viewing some of my collection. My 10/22 draws a blank expression and a 'anything else in there?' Doesn't bother me but what is it that bores people about this rifle. My boys and I have a BLAST plinking on the cheap and I can put a...

    1911 help

    I love my RIA 45 but I feel like the ejected casing is coming close to being as dangerous as the bullet flying down range. How can I get the ejector to stop throwing everything so far and fast. I wouldnt trust anybody elses advice but y'alls.

    Mythbusters, Again

    Sorry if this has been mentioned already but last night on Mythbusters they took a look at a myth originating from the civil war where two mini balls fused in mid air. They tested this in a container in the parking lot. My question is can they do that? I know that yes they can because they...

    Anyone familiar with Texas CHL

    I was going to buy a more suitable gun for my ccw but I have decided that I like, and am comfortable with, my P89. I know that this will 'print' but I am not above the idea of a fanny pack. Am I under the correct assumption that whatever I can get to fit in this pack is ok to carry as long as...

    Sighting in a blackhawk

    So I picked up this BLackhawk on friday. The Gent I bought it from tells me he had some different sights on it and when he put the stock one back on he didn't mess with it. I am no sharpshooter so I would like advice on making sure this sight is set as close to correct as possible to make me...

    Police arrive after apprehension...

    A while back someone had a thread about how to lay your ccw down when told to "drop it" by a LEO. This got me thinking about this hypothetical situation. I hear a burglar downstairs, grab the piece in the nightstand and take a peek. Catch a guy red handed and he is too scared to make a run...

    No ammo to be fired at this range please!

    A local range I visited for the first time this weekend had a sign with the range rules clearly stated, posted next to the pistol stalls. At the bottom it said no steel or FMJ ammunition. What should I pick up to use while at this range. It was my first outdoor range trip and I really enjoyed...

    Ruger ejection problem

    Right after I bought my P89 my buddies P85 started having trouble with FTE's. Other than limp wristing, which has been ruled out, what is the next most common cause for this and best way to fix it. My theory was that the ejector spring thingy (sorry I dont know what it is called) is worn or...
