I bought the 200 model and after installing realized the 100 would've probably been fine. I had to bottom out the elevation to keep POI from being high and raise front post nearly to the limit. That being said, this is the best accessory for the SKS IMHO..nice groups at 75 and 100 yrds. I had...

I think the necked down pistol rounds are the self defense and combat rounds of the future. The velocity increase, the penetration, the feed reliabilty are an improvement. The .357 sig is getting close to a .357 mag...the 5.7 will become even more popular IMO. I think there is something on the...

I've always preferred light and fast...you can get it lined up for the next shot quicker and the gold standard .357 seems to prove that the closer you get to rifle balistics the better (fast with pentration and expansion). I've been playing with some 95 grain 9mm and I don't need a chrono to...

I'll echo what was said before..that is some nice woodwork. As for the Phoenix, I had one on a lengthy loan from a friend and was amazed at the accuracy..even with the short barrel. It did have an issue with occasional light strikes. I guess the springs in this gun are it's weakest link...

+1 on the RWS..I don't have a Glock, but it definately cycles in my BHP better than other ball ammo I've tried (I do have the beefier 18.5lb spring)..and the price is right.

I'm not speakin' to a situation that has gone past negotiations. If needed, in defense of person and property, I will take any action necessary to stop a threat (and kill if need be). A neighbor of mine held a perp at bay in a convience store until police arrived. He didn't blow the guys brains...

I would absolutely fight to defend my families lives and my own by whatever means necessary! I had a good friend shot 3 times at an ATM in the early 90's..she lived. The a'hole got $35 and he shot her as he ran toward the car!!..before even demanding money! She probably wouldn't have been in a...

Much more BG's these days are armed with cheap pistols. A drunk who wants to scrap is a different issue. I don't know how many people get mugged at knife point, but I bet it's a lot less than with pistols. Unfortunatly, I think muggers have the advantage. They lie in wait and get the drop on...

In open carry, cocked and locked, cond. 1, one in the tube..etc. makes a lot of sense and seems safer than it would be for CC IMHO. I was brought up understanding that a safety is a mechanical device that CAN fail. It just seems more could go wrong with a CCW in condition 1..like that idiot...

Ordered and received some Federal 9mm 95gr JSP's from CTD. I plan on running thru a few mags this weekend. Anyone have experience with these? I was reading they were requested by British SAS. I have my doubts about such a light bullet. My BHP seems to favor 124gr ammo, I have had some jams with...

Just to update.. I stopped by a recommended local gunsmith to have this checked out. He seemed impressed by the condition of this 1890. He was pulling me toward a restoration job (quoted about $300)..said the last one he did was in real bad shape and cost about $800 to completely restore (I...

I've often wondered what rifle the stingers were optimized for? Same as DBR I haven't found one that shoots them accurate enough. I like them in my pistols..Heritage revolver and Ruger mk..

Thanks klineia, I think I'll do what I can to get this functional..My 10 yr old son can't keep his eyes off of it since I brought it home!! I know he would love to shoot this thing! and so would I !!

+1 on the Ruger's..My MKI will shoot anything in LR without fail. I mix up stingers, yellowjackets, golden bullets, thunderbolts, aguilas, etc. just to try to make it jam. It cycles all perfectly. Even when neglected for a time..it just works!

A guy at work asks me and another if we know anyone who wants a couple of old .22's that need work. I say "I'd better not, if I bring any more guns home my wife will probably shoot me with one of them!!..but what are they and what do you want for them?" He doesn't have a clue on either ones...

sorry to bump this thread back to the top...but I need some input from some of the hi pwr folks. Does a new recoil spring need to be "broken in"? I decided to beef up mine to a 18.5lb and had read some of Stephen Camp's info regarding this.. I had several fail-to-eject's and one stove pipe while...

in regards to the blackpowder versions, how long does one want to leave it loaded up with a cap, powder, and ball? If this was your everyday carry piece would you want fire it all out every week or once a month and load up fresh? It just seems like you wouldn't want it sitting around a long time...

I've never had an ignition problem with any ammo in the NAA..even some really old thunderbolts that looked like they had been sitting in a damp cellar for a decade. They did shoot way low though...much like the stingers. The yellowjackets and the aguila's hit pretty close to POA out to about 10'...

I took my NAA .22lr out for it's checkup this weekend. I used to keep it loaded with stingers, but saw the velocity results at the NAA website: http://www.naaminis.com/lrvelnew.html and I switched to a mix of Aguila 60gr sss and yellowjackets. I fired all rounds thru a 1 1/2" phone book..the...

While handling this thing today I felt a little more at ease with it. It feels robust and cylinder lockup was tight (cylinder does turn the wrong way). The barrel was tight. The cylinder seemed to tighten ever more as trigger is pulled. The grips are rubber and comfortable. I still wouldn't fire...
