I live in the suburbs, but if I had to spend some time on a ranch or farm, I'd probably retrofit a CZ-452 Scout with a full-sized stock to end up with a deadly accurate .22LR bolty with a 16" barrel. With the adult-sized stock, it would be a CZ-452 Carbine.
Put some 1" Uncle Mike's swivels on...
Thank you for posting this info graphic.
Folks, we have a duty to commit these numbers to memory and to share them intelligently with the GFW. Practice reciting these stats until you can rattle off one sound bite after another. The other side has been doing this for years with smoke and...
Another viable option is to simply replace the front sight with an aftermarket XS tritium sight, like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Std-Dot-Tritium-Rug-Lcr/dp/B0035LVWN0/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
It's about $65 and takes 10-15 minutes to install with the right tools. Almost all of the...
I'll add a few ideas of my own:
TALO:
- Con: Larger, bulkier
- Con: May not fit in all holsters
- Pro: Maintains softer grip
- Con: Laser must be turned on
- Pro: Laser is parallel to barrel
CRIMSON:
- Pro: Maintains overall size & shape
- Pro: Fits in all LCR 22 holsters
-...
I'm really liking the Ruger LCR 22 as my first CCW, but I'd want to get something with a laser. There are two choices. What are the pros/cons of each one?
LCR 22 with TALO Laser
LCR 22 with Crimson Trace Laser
Did a bit of research on my own, and it looks like small of back is a BAD choice. Apparently if you fall on your back, you can badly injure your spinal cord. Some police forces have banned them or are phasing them out.
For deep concealment, something like a Guardian 32 ACP paired up with a...
Can someone give me a quick sketch of the different flavors of concealed carry holsters and the pros and cons of each?
From the El Paso Saddlery site, I see the following choices:
- strong side
- dual position
- cross draw
- IWB
- pocket
- shoulder
- paddle
- small of back...
Take up trap shooting! I taught myself to shoot trap with both eyes WIDE open.
Once I started doing that, my scores went up, and I began to shoot 25's consistently from the 16 yard line. It took me about 6 months to really make the switch, shooting 2-3 rounds per weekend.
I used a blurry spot...
Curious if anyone has an opinion on the El Paso Saddlery for elegantly crafted holsters for concealed carry? I have one of their shotgun toe guards that I use for trap shooting, and it's one of my favorite shotgunning accessories. Very well crafted.

I have a feeling this old gun will outlast me! I take good care of all my guns (and guitars and amps), and I can't think of any reason why my small collection won't be viable 150 years from now.
And that's how it should be. Steel, wood and iron wins out...until they inevitably lose the battle...
What kind of surface was the gun on for the "After" pictures?
I've always wondered how that's done. It's one thing to use a woven mat type surface as a backdrop, or to photograph a gun outside on some weathered decking. But my favorite shots are like yours: on a pure white background that just...
I say go "Old School".
Heavy? Check. Durable? Check. Can hold 15+ rounds? Check, if you get the 32-round drum attachment. Under $650? Well, 3 out of 4 ain't bad!
No worries! It's all good. ;)
I've been having fun today researching accessories and spare parts for the Mak. I'm so glad I decided to get a Mak and not a pre-1968 Walther PPK .22LR. Sure, some day I WILL own a PPK .22LR, but for now, the Makarov will scratch my itch.
I didn't realize how...
What about something like a Polish P-64 instead? Then you can go with a a ballistically superior 9x18. These are very small guns but like everything from the Iron Curtain built like a tank.
Hehe! Well, it's a reasonable question...and a good answer from Arp32, too. First, you need to define what a "shooter" is. If I occasionally shoot my near collector-grade EG Mak, does that make it a shooter?
It just seems a shame to keep a purdy gun locked up in a case 24/7.
If I do get...
I really appreciate all the feedback, pro and con, on my new purchase. Although I am a little surprised at the strength of some of the negative comments and finger waggling.
As noted, like 99% of the folks on this forum, I work hard for my money (although this gun was funded with winnings...
Wipers FTW! LOL. I never expected to quote another forum user who also likes the Wipers. "Follow Blind" was the first Wipers album I bought in early 1987; still remember the first time I listened to an entire Wipers album cover-to-cover. I was blown away.
After "Over the Edge", my #2 pick is...
