Hi, all, My 10/22 mags needed some cleaning, and I noticed the dire warnings in the manual about not disassembling them. Ruger suggests soaking them in solvent. I'd like to use an inexpensive and relatively nontoxic solvent for this. Any suggestions? Thanks, - NF.

One of the Mythbusters episodes was about firing guns underwater, and that got me curious. Unless they took proper care of the guns afterward, they'd wind up with some very expensive pieces of rusted junk. So, if your gun were somehow to fall into the water, how would you prevent it from...

After seeing another member with an ID of Something Wolf, I did a member search. We've got 94 members whose names contain "wolf" and one "wolves." What makes 'em so popular among gunnies, anyway? - NF P.S. The popularity winner is probably Something Gun: 532 hits.

Hi, all, Scuzeme if I say some ignorant things about silhouette here. I've never shot it before. Last winter, I put together a 10/22 ultimate, with the intention to use it for silhouette someday. It's got a Green Mountain fluted stainless barrel and a laminate stock, which makes it pretty...
