    FAL OR PTR-91 Please Help

    After handling several PTR 91 rifles and months of researching different rifles pros and cons I decided to get a PTR 91. The only problem with them is you might have problems with the lowest quality surplus ammo that has tar sealant that makes the ammo water proof, gums up the flutes. All...

    Looking for most reliable Stainless semi auto (exclude 1911s)

    I would suggest a Sig they have several stainless models in a variety of sizes and calibers, but new ones are probably out of your budget. A used stainless Sig might fit the bill.

    Starting to feel foreign, the 1911.

    To me the 1911 is an American icon, I refuse to buy a foreign made 1911. Especially when there is so many excellent made 1911s made right here. Colt, Dan Wesson, Kimber, S&W are just a few. I have been in the same boat, wanting a US made 1911 but not having the money. The best suggestion I...

    I Like the S&W ILS

    You can buy all the used guns you want but you will eventually be burned. People thank more powerful is better, firing way too powerful of shells through their guns and eventually something gives. When it does they sell it, before it gets noticeable. Majority of the time its something you can...

    I Like the S&W ILS

    You can examine every millimeter of a used gun, but only when you fire it can you be sure of its function. I seen and experienced many excellent shaped used guns go bad despite examining it.

    S&W 1911 Trade in for a Springfield Trophy

    I did the exact opposite. Bought a brand new Springfield 1911 and it was crap from day one, tried different magazines different ammo nothing worked. I had no choice so I sent it to Springfield for repair and it worked for about three hundred rounds before it crapped out, got rid of it. Like an...

    Too bad CZ doesn't make a revolver

    I imagine being a Dan Wesson they will be made in their plant in New York. If this is the case like their 1911s, then they will be expensive.

    .357 recommendation for beginner: S&W 686 or Ruger GP-100?

    I know function is what counts but I never seen a Ruger with out a cosmetic flaw of some sort and their trigger pull need modifying right from the box. I never had any of these problems with my Smiths.

    My Pain and Disappointment: Smith & Wesson

    I was in the market for a new revolver, what I wanted was a 629. I went to my local gun store and being a Smith & Wesson distributor he had several Smith & Wesson's in stock. I inspected all the models that caught my eye and everyone was perfect. Not a single thing wrong with any of them...
