    Feg amd 65

    My TGI AMD-65 has worked flawlessly and as accurate as an AK variant with a short barrel can be, probably as accurate as some of the longer barreled AK's. I did a lot of research and picked the AMD for some of the same reasons you mentioned. Small, lightweight, folding stock, and chrome lined...

    savage 10FCM scout

    I don't know about "serious faults" Mine shoots very well about 1/2" at 100 and about 1" at 200. I'm at about 250 rounds out of mine. I am not a fan of the magazine, for me it is difficult to change magazines easily. I just pretend its an integral magazine. The sights on it do not seem very...

    Amd 65

    I have a TGI AMD-65 with an FEG receiver, and they are parts kits, with in my case a longer muzzle brake that mimics the original. I do not remember reading about any problems with them. I have tried many different magazines with mine and have had no problems at all. This guns has always...

    .45 Carbine recomendations for under $1,500

    I had a Masterpiece arms 45acp carbine. It was very reliable, and I had no mechanical problems. They use common grease gun magazines, and if you get the side cocking model, mounting a red dot or scope is nice. The thread pitch on the barrel is unusual (11/16x16) so you will probably need and...

    Mini-14 vs. Mini-30??

    I am quite fond of my 6.8spc mini, just another option in caliber.

    Best 44 Mag Lever Gun?

    Last year I bought a Marlin 1894 in 44mag, added an XS forward scope mount and a fixed EER four power scope. This combo for me is great, with my hand loads it will shot a sub 1 inch group at 50 yards and at 100 will shot about 1.5 inch group.(with a good rest) Mine does not have Microgroove...

    How long does S&W take to mail a factory letter ?

    Mine took awhile, in fact about 7 or 8 weeks of waiting, and I just forgot about it, until one day it just arrived in the mail. Believe it was about 10 or 12 weeks. GJW1911

    Need info on Colt LWT Commander XSE 45ACP

    I had a LWT commander XSE and my only complaints were the front cocking serrations, and the edges were SHARP! I really thought it would be possible to shave with that gun. On the other end it was completely reliable and was a very nice gun to carry. I have since switched to a Defender and...

    H110? 158g LSWC loads

    I use and Oregon trail 158, with 2400, and a standard CCI primer this powder has given excellent results in my 357, when fired out of my flat-top blackhawk.

    Looking for my first Revolver.

    I would not listed to the gun counter guy, Taurus makes good guns, but bad ones get out no matter who the manufacturer is, I had a older Taurus 357 that would lock up after one or two rounds. However I had a PT-92-AR that was an excellent gun. With that said, I would and did buy a Ruger...

    300gr Speer GDHP in a 500mag

    I have some 300gr speer GDHP bullets that I use in the 50ae, has anyone used these bullets in the 500 S&W mag? Have looked in my reloading manuals, and done some searching but have not found anything yet. Would it be OK to use reloading data for the next size up bullet? Or is there...

    best .44 mag sa

    I will voice another vote for the Rugers, I own a 44 SBH 7.5" barrel with an action job and porting (great hunting gun), and a 44mag Vaquero 5.5"(packin pistol). Both are more accurate than I am as well as robust. The only advice is, keep the screws tight!

    Which 1911 brand/finish?

    Dan Wesson streamlined their product line (changed and removed models) and made made improvements to their guns this year (forged frames, replaced MIM parts, etc.), they also reduced the total number of guns output as well. Look for a used Dan Wesson. I have owed colts, and Springfield's...

    My age group...

    When shooting I sometimes see the same types, while very annoying I try to say away from them. Most of that demographic I have seen shooting, they are dangerous to others around them. I also, like you mentioned see the other side of that. When I am out shooting an ak, gsg, or desert eagle...

    How many rounds to break in?

    I don't know about a "break-in period" but I would not trust to carry a gun unless I had put at least 250 to 500 rounds through. My Kahr CW45 was dead reliable out of the box, without their "break in" but I would not trust it until I had fired 500 reliable rounds (witch it did, right out of...

    If your main carry pistol is a 1911 type: end of day storage?

    Condition one all the time, except my weekly range trips where it is removed from the holster, fired, cleaned, put back in condition one and re-holstered.

    Which Kydex reinforced dual layer leather daily wear belt?

    I bought a comp-tac, so it is the only one I can comment on. It is a great looking belt and well made, has really held up over the past year, I believe the Kydex really helps to when carrying concealed. I would recommend it based on my own experience. In a month or so I will end up...

    1911 Antiquated...

    I love my 1911's, mine have been completely reliable and just plain fit me. With that said a Glock is a work horse, very reliable, but do not stir my soul the way a 1911 does. GJW1911

    Help Selecting a 1911

    I would try to find a used Dan Wesson, any model. Besides being completly reliable, and very attractive, there is no billboard on the slide of my DW CBOB. GJW1911

    What do I do with this gun?

    I had one after a year of occasional shooting (probably 300 rounds) the slide cracked in half, vertically. The first forward inch of the slide came off while firing. I decommissioned the gun, glued the gun shut and glued the front piece back on, after removing the fire controls and trigger...
