So I just got my first "black rifle" a colt LE6920. and while I like the iron sights I would like to get an optic for it. My birthday is coming up in about a month, and I was thinking of getting an Aimpoint PRO, (well it would be from my wife, but i'm sure you know how it is) I was...

I have a new Colt CCO pistol, and I noticed when shooting it last week the fired brass seems to come out with some very light parallel scratches from base to mouth. Upon disassembly and cleaning it appears the rifling looks fine, but the chamber looks dark, almost tarnished. I have not noticed...

So my father is taking the leap into title two weapons, and is looking for a supressor for a 22lr, to be used on rifles and pistols, its not going to be used on a full auto, but probably will be gettin a lot of use, as he is in a location that allows him to shoot off his back porch, if he feels...

I just ordered a set of these: http://www.surefire.com/EP4-Sonic-Defenders-Plus Surefire sonic defenders, to wear when I am hunting, after a trip last wednesday. I had two "incidents" that have my left ear still softly ringing (I can hear it in a quiet room, but a fan or tv drowns it...

Does anyone have any experience with the Duracoat shake and spray kit? I am looking at refinishing a savage 93R17 that has some surface rust on the barrel, no pitting, but it looks bad, and the bluing looks worn reguardless. It shoots well, just not very pretty. I'm assuming I need to...

So I have been looking at an autoloadoing shotgun, (thanks for the replies to my post about the browing maxus, but I have decided to go with the benelli Vinci). So that brings me to my question, while the benelli comes with several chokes, I will need a couple more, and was wondering if...

I am in the market for a new autoloader, and I have been looking at the Browning Maxus. I am looking for a "do everything" gun, (I know there is no such thing, but you know what I mean) I would like to use it for assorted hunting as well as clays. I would probably get the 3" gun, as I...

I am potentially in the market for a new rifle in the next few months, and I have been looking at the browning x bolt. I was wondering if anyone had any experience/ opinions? I was in particular looking at the stainless model with the black synthetic stock. Probably in 25-06. please let me...

So I am going on a trip next week, and will be doing a lot of shooting, I would like to bring stuff to clean my gun, so I wont have to buy more when I'm out there. So... Can I put small bottles of CLP etc (non-arisol) in my checked luggage? I can't see why not, hairspray and other things...

I hope you guys can help diagnose my 1911 problem. I have a springfield "loaded" 1911 that has been giving me some problems. It was purchased new in august of this year, and this marks the second time it will be going back to sprinfield for repair. The first time was for an out of spec slide...

So my last thread was more about springfield CS, so I thought I'd start a new thread about my new decision. After a failure of some sort with the Springfield ILS that caused the gun to malfunction, and the hammer to fall to half cock when the trigger is pulled, I am in the market for a...

I sent off my new Springfield loaded 1911 last week to Springfield due an out of spec slide stop that was causing occasional premature lock back with hollow points. It also had one fall to half cock when pulling the trigger. The gun was new and only had about 200 round through it when I sent it...

What is the difference between the hornady 350 grain flat point and round nose bullets? Other than the obvious, are they designed for different velocities, or does one expand more than another? this will be for a marlin 45-70 guide gun, if anyone is curious.

I am going to gunsite in october, (very, very, excited, by the way). I currently have a blade tech double mag pouch for my 1911, which will be my gun for the course. I was wondering from anyone with experience with gunsite, or other shooting schools think this will be sufficient? or would...

are there any possible problems that might arise from using grips cut for an ambi safety with a gun that has a left side only safety, i'm referring to a 1911 by the way. I have a set of VZ alien grips on my gun, and I like them, but the gun is going back to springfield for some warranty work...

So i just got a springfield loaded 1911, and it has been 100% with factory mags with ball and hollow points. I also picked up some cmc powermags, 6 to be precise. and they all work 100% with ball ammo, but they refuse to feed on the last round with hollow points. both gold dots and xtp. they...

So I have a question for the experts here at THR. There is a very good chance of me going to Gunsite for their 250 pistol course this winter. The closest to a "duty sized" handgun I currently own is a HK USPc45. which is a great carry gun, but I feel is a little small for the kind of work...

So I am looking for a new set of grips for my smith 686+. It came from the factory with the hogue mono-grip, but I have never liked the way they fit. the finger grooves are in the wrong place and the way the grip tapers feels weird. I was looking at a set of Ahrends grips, and I was wondering...

I am going to be picking up a 22mag shortly and I'm looking for a scope. It will be mostly for varmint hunting and target shooting/plinking. Do I need a rimfire scope or an adjustable objective, or can I use a centerfire scope? I'm thinking 2-7x33? Just looking for some advice or opinions! Ps...

does anyone have a mini red dot, like a Burris Fastfire on a revolver? and if so, how do you like it? I am thinking of putting a Fastfire on my 686+ and I was wondering if anyone had any advice. pictures would also be neat!
