    New Ruger LC Carbine in .45 ACP

    If it proves accurate, it would make a great non NFA suppressor host. Great for eliminating feral hogs under 75 yards I would think. I think Ruger hit it out of the park with this one and they should have released it before the 5.7 version IMHO. It's like a good quality Hi-Point carbine. Not...

    Taurus introducing New Rifle

    Not sure why anyone would buy a Taurus bolt action for $1k when they can get a really nice Bergara or Tikka for around the same price. Especially if it doesn't bring anything new to the table. But I have an open mind, maybe it will surprise.

    Rossi R92 45 Colt Chambering Issue

    I just looked at my old Navy Arms 1892 in .45 Colt (made by Rossi) and it doesn't have those notches. Of course it feeds pretty much everything with no issues except MAYBE some types of wadcutters if my memory serves. I honestly can't fathom what the point of those notches are. While a feed ramp...

    I Passed Up A Grail Gun Yesterday

    That is a really fantastic story. I've fallen in love with firearms under similar circumstances. Mostly old nostalgic guns from times of a bygone era. But it doesn't mean you really need the guns, unless it some sort of bucket list thing I suppose. I remember the first time I fired the M240B in...

    Heirloom.22

    A $1,500 budget will rule out any new production Anschutz. Used rifles should be in that price range though. However if this budget includes optics I think going the CZ route would make a lot of sense. The CZ 457 is a really nice rifle and it comes in a variety of models, many of which are...

    Spare parts for AR 15

    I'm not suggesting anything, that's all you friend. I just simply stated my personal strategy. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether or not they care or if it is moot or not. You do you. It can be difficult to get individual parts hence getting kits may be a more effective way to get...

    Spare parts for AR 15

    It's a rather complex question because due to the economics of mass production, military spec AR-15's have become much more available and at cheaper prices. That said, with modern manufacturing techniques most mil-spec AR-15's are very durable tools that should last a long time. I am talking...

    Spare parts for AR 15

    Your experince is certainly valuable and appreciated, but your perspective is narrowly applied to current times. The ONLY reason to get spare parts for a gun is to keep the gun operating when those parts are no longer available. Either the parts are no longer available due to some disaster, are...

    Good AR?

    BCM would be a really good way to go these days. Daniel Defense used to offer stuff like that (and I have one) but their rifles tend to be a bit tricked out with fancy rails and furniture these days. Colt also makes a civilian M4A1 and a M4 trooper. The only downside to BCM is that you might...

    I like my $450 Extar EP9 Gen2 more than the CZ Scorpion - Tell me why I'm wrong

    The Extar is awesome, glad you seem to be happy with yours. Given the price point, Glock magazine compatibility, ergonomics, low recoil, reliability, durability, light weight, and ability to accept accessories, I do think it is really hard to beat as a large frame pistol/PCC. You don't even need...

    The Winchester Gun Store

    I saw this store the other day and immediately came to the same conclusion. Prices and inventory are too good, which means it is too good to be true.

    Extar EP9 "Gen 2" - Does it still have an adjustable trigger? + Buffer tube quesion

    No worries. You are going to enjoy it, it really is a great little weapon. I can keep all my rounds in a grouping smaller than a fist at 25 yards with rapid fire. It also has very little recoil which you already know. Get a nice red dot and a weapon light for it and you have an excellent home...

    Extar EP9 "Gen 2" - Does it still have an adjustable trigger? + Buffer tube quesion

    I bought one a few weeks back and it has the adjustable trigger. That said I didn't notice a huge difference when adjusting it, maybe a couple of ounces? And yes the buffer tube has the protrusion on the buffer, I am not aware of any way to remove it. The brace that comes with the Extar is...

    KEL-TEC shipping $200K worth of SUB-2000's to Ukraine

    Yes well I fought in Afghanistan as well and we all know how disgracefully that ended, all the blood and treasure lost while granting the enemy a near total victory. The War in Iraq has ended with Iraq becoming a friend of the Iranians. And we all know how Vietnam ended, pretty much the same as...

    KEL-TEC shipping $200K worth of SUB-2000's to Ukraine

    The Soviet Union does not exist anymore, it's a rather important distinction. Ukraine was part of the Soviet Union so this war would not be happening if the Soviet Union still existed. You are probably referring to the Russian Federation which is not even a communist country. Also, I couldn't...

    KEL-TEC shipping $200K worth of SUB-2000's to Ukraine

    That is real cute. But NATO after WWII was largely the creation of the USA. Not a small, weak country. It was organized to stop the communist Soviet Union, which collapsed over 30 years ago. Still it expanded to 13 countries afterward. Why? Oh maybe to sell some small countries protection with...

    KEL-TEC shipping $200K worth of SUB-2000's to Ukraine

    Hey, Kel-Tec is free to do what they want. I had a Gen 1 S2K and it was a great gun. Overall Kel-Tec is an innovative company that sells some interesting and unique weapons. I only sold it because I got a nice profit for it and I had a 9mm carbine that suited me a bit better. But I gotta...

    KEL-TEC shipping $200K worth of SUB-2000's to Ukraine

    These Kel-Tec rifles will have absolutely NO impact on this conflict. It is just virtue signaling and a publicity stunt. Also the arguments that Putin won't stop at Ukraine is kind of stupid because every Nation West of Ukraine is NATO and it would bring us WWIII where no one wins. If Putin...

    In Your Opinion, What Is The Best Bullpup Shotgun?

    A semi auto, tube fed bullpup similar to the KS-7 would be perfect. Kinda like a modern High Standard 10b without that weird buttstock. Too bad no one makes something like that yet. I plan to stick with the 5 and 10 rounders for my bullpup since that is more than enough for most situations. I do...
