Excellent. Thanks for the quick, informative response.

Here's a stupid noob question. It appears from the discussion above that the SA trigger is just drop in and go. Is this correct? Can the same be said for the match hammer? Thanks, brianb

Great advice. I personally consider my gun handling as my 'introduction' to a new shop or new sales person. It's my way of establishing credibility and getting the relationship started the right way. THANK YOU for mentioning the muzzle. I get REAL bugged when people sweep me. It's a gun...

I refer to my carry piece as 'My Companion'. That way I can inform the wife that I'm strapped without alerting the uninitiated.

I'm fine with it, so long as the same measures are required for every other 'dangerous' piece of portable property that people own (cars, atv's, boats, chainsaws, weed eaters, knives, hammers, wrenches, lumber, etc.) My guns should not be placed under different legal considerations from my...

Has to be the Chauchat. Nothing like an open sided magazine for muddy trench warfare!

280 Rem factory ammo in a 280 Rem AI barrel. I'm shooting the same ammo that the original owner shot. I've ordered a heavier hammer spring from Bellm. Several have responded on other boards that adding a hammer extension to the Encore can cause this. I need to get to the range and try...

That I didn't know. I'll check that this evening. Thanks for the suggestion.

I took my Encore to the range over the weekend and it won't fire. It's light-striking the primer. It leaves a dimple in the primer, but no ignition. The firing pin looks 'healthy' and extends fully when I press it from the hammer side. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I just...

I'm with 10X. If I have any say in the matter, I'd MUCH rather keel over in the middle of the woods, under the watching eyes of nature than under fluorescent lights and the gawking stares of co-workers. brianb

Yep....all that cardio is REALLY bad for you. Just ask the American Heart Association. Sheesh. The lengths that some of these ninnies won't go to with their little agendas. Next, they'll be telling me that my obsessive practice sessions with a 70lb bow are bad for me. I must...

Check your history. When a government disarms a population, vast atrocities and mass killings follow. Gun ownership safeguards the society as well as the individual. The second amendment is the guarantor of all the others.

I'm about as p*ssed off at President Bush as I can ever remember being at any president, Clinton included. I just don't see where it meets the 'high crimes and misdemeanors' requirement. I could be wrong. If I am, then tell the Senate to 'get some'.

I consider 9mm to be fun for plinking and competition, but won't carry it for self defense. My cousin was forced to kill an armed robber in his place of business several years back. He put two rounds of 9mm HP, center chest. The guy walked out of the store and died in the parking lot. He...

I have an RWS/Diana Model 52. Not cheap, but a whole lot of pellet gun. For varmints and the like, I use the .22 cal Predator pellets. They're about double the cost of good RWS wadcutters, but I'm not shooting paper with those. They hit HARD. I've found the Model 52 to be plenty accurate...

I can't wait to hear the liberal spin on why this one should be banned.

Who's this poser?? Any real goth would have the pistol in his MOUTH. :evil: 'Cause life sucks. Real goths NEVER smile.

He's giving us back to Mexico!! :cuss: :banghead: :banghead: :cuss: We're gonna be butt deep in illegals!! :what: Who is this clown and what did he do with the guy we elected Governor of Texas for two terms?!?!

I am compensating for a criminal justice system that has failed to instill the fear of just consequences in would-be criminals. I am compensating for a popular culture that glorifies the criminal element and paints the law-abiding as out-dated.

I've never understood the Fed's choice of .357Sig for the Air Marshall's Service. They chose a great platform (the Sig P239), but why the high-penetration round? Forget overpenetration. Who'd want to be on a plane when a .357Sig is discharged. I once owned a P239 in .357Sig. Loud doesn't...
