    Older Mossberg my friend has.

    Agreed that it being "older" does not equate to more valuable. This is very common shotgun made for decades by Mossberg. It is tough and reliable but certainly not a rare collectors item. It probably cost him $250 or less brand new in 1999. I would imagine you could find a comparable new...

    Paul Barrett’s: Glock, The Rise of America’s Gun

    I read the book and enjoyed it very much. To the author's credit, I did not perceive the book as overly biased or political. It is primarily the story of a product and the company that produced the product. Of course, since the product is firearms it was all the more interesting to me (a...

    Herters Ammo?

    It is comparable to Wolf or other steel case ammo. It's fine for target practice. If the price is right, go for it.

    Federal Ammo From Wal Mart

    I've shot a bunch of it in 9mm. Good ammo for a good price. Buy it.

    Good sale on pistol ammo on Cabela's websit

    Found some good sales on ammo on Cabela's website that I stumbled upon. Their steel cased private label pistol ammo was on sale for as low as $8.99. If you use that for plinking, it might be a good chance to stock up. I've never used but I would assume it's comparable to Wolf, etc. I'm not...

    Safety tips, pointers, and info for newbies

    You may want to check out the NRA website. They have various literature on gun safety and related topics available even if you are not an NRA member. Your state's conservation department (or whatever they may be called in your state) probably has a website as well that could have some helpful...

    Beretta Neos Misfeeds

    Don't get discouraged yet. When I first bought my Neos, it had the same problem. It is a bit finicky with ammo (as many .22s can be). I eventually tried CCI Mini Mag and CCI Blazer and it shot with little or no problems. After a brick or so of the CCI it began to shoot much better with most...

    Mossberg 500......

    Need help with Beretta Neos

    Thanks to the good folks here at THR, I found out that there was a recall on the Beretta Neos due to a firing pin problem and sent mine in for the free repair. I now have it back and took it out to fire it for the first time since the repair. It is now misbehaving and I don't know whether to...

    Steel Ammo, So Tempting.

    Shot tons of it through my Glock 17 with no problems. I'd go for it unless your manufacturer has a specific warning or it would void a warranty (which is unlikely). Great for range practice.

    270 versus 30.06

    They are both great. An average .270 will have a little less recoil but will definitely take care of business.

    Inexpensive .22 LR Pistol

    I have a Neos and have enjoyed it very much. The grip is very comfortable and ergonomic. Yes, you do have to get past the looks. It does have an unusual "sci-fi" look to it but it shoots very nicely and the price is right. That being said, Ruger and Browning Buckmark are also very good is...

    Remington 870 or Mossberg 500

    You can't go wrong either way. It just comes down to price and personal preference. Both will last a lifetime with normal use.

    Recommend Me a .22lr Handgun

    All good suggestions so far. I'd like to put in a plug for the Beretta U22 Neos. Granted, the design is a bit funky, but they are reasonably priced and shoot well. Also, they come with two mags. I've enjoyed mine very much.
