    Trouble in my 1911 paradise.

    Gentleman. Here is the story. I own Para Ordinance 1911. Great gun, for me anyways. I have it for just about a year, shoot it on weekly bases, love it. But today my world crumbled. I took the gun to the range, put about 300 rounds down the pipe, all good. Took it home and as hundred times...

    Gentleman. I need to find me a good gunsmith working somewhere near Cleveland Ohio. Rather simple job, changing the barrel on my Savage 112. From 22-250 to .308 I'll supply the barrel unless the gunsmith has one handy. I asked few people in local gun shops, they want me to do the work...

    Changing caliber in Savage 112 rifle.

    Gentleman. Quick and dirty. If i wanted to change caliber from 22-250 to .308 in Savage 112 rifle, swapping the barrel will be enough ? Done by the gunsmith of course. I believe 22-250 is using the necked down .308 case so the bolt face and extractor will work, yes ? I'm not really worrying...

    Help me spend my money ;-)

    Gentleman. Slowly but surely I’m drifting into the direction of good bolt action rifle in .308 caliber. Or something equal to it. I’m not a very big fan of magnums, 30-06 is also a little much. I doubt I’ll be shooting the rifle at the targets further than 300-500 yards away and I’m not a...

    Barrel life for pistols.

    Gentleman. I'm so used to shooting rifles that i still have basic questions about pistols. In general, what is the barrel life for most of them ? My new pistole, Sig P250 has the barrel where wall thickens is maybe .093 inch. It looks like really fat soda straw. I wonder how many rounds do...

    Olympic Arms AR’s, where do they stand in AR World?

    Gentleman. I have an Olympic Arms K16 in my sights. Very nice looking setup, flat top, 16 inch bull barrel, nice scope, iron sights plus other bells and whistles. All brand new, never fired, in the factory case. Now, I don’t know much about AR’s, hence the question. How is Olympic Arms...

So i dropped everything i was doing and went to install it on my rifle. Well, i did in 15 minutes but...

    First revolver, what can you guys recommend ?

    Gentleman. I think it is time to buy me my first revolver. But i'm not looking for something new and modern. I love the look of top break revolvers. There is just something in the design that makes me want to get one. Not many of those out there. I'm thinking older H&R model but really want the...
