    NIB, 70's Mauser Luger 9mm. Worth collecting?

    I was in a local gun shop today and saw something I have never seen. I don't presume that just because I have never seen it, that it is rare or something. It was an unfired Mauser Luger in pristine condition. The gunshop owner estimates that it was made sometime in the 70's, and called it a...

    Anyone have experience with the FN Five seveN?

    I am wondering about the viability of this gun. What does the ammo cost? Twenty rounds of super fast 22 caliber in a safe action intrigues me.

    Anyone use "Dupont Teflon Multi-use Lubricant" for guns?

    The stuff in the blue bottle, that flows as a liquid, and sets up dry. I curious if this would serve a s a good lubricant on Stainles Steel gun reciprocating parts, or if a liquid such as CLP would be superior. I realize that this stuff would probably do diddly for corrosion prevention...

    Wolf Ammo. Is it still garbage?

    Today I gave my local gun shop guy a hard time for continuing to carry, and offer the only discounted sales prices on Wolf .223 ammunition. Was I too hard on the guy for making my point? This ammo seems to be pure garbage. The steel case's laquer finish goes gummy in the chamber and you are...

    Awesome Glock service.

    I come to find out that my Glock 20, originally purchased some ten years ago, was in need of an update to make the firing pin more safe under adverse gun cleanliness circumstances. I sent the gun in last Thursday to Glock, via UPS. I get the pistol delivered back yesterday! Talk about...

    Question: Shipping a Handgun via UPS

    When shipping a handgun by UPS, I have been advised by the manufacturer I am shipping to, to not reveal to UPS minion that a hangun is being shipped. This is done for only one reason...

    Glock firing pin upgrade question

    I have an older Glock 20-2nd generation, that I now understand "needs" a firing pin upgrade. I found out about it on the Glockmeister site, but they offer no details as to why one should get it. I mean an exact reason, not a generic one, like "for your safety". Does anyone have a feel for the...

    Guns in movies question, Kali specific.

    Can anyone explain to me what reasoning there is that entertainment companies are given so much preference in the wording of anti-gun legislation? I mean, what reasoning is there that film-makers need real guns, not replicas, anyways? It seems that film-makers are exempt from "assualt...

    Glock 10mm to .40 S&W Conversion

    I am looking to convert my Glock model 20 10mm to .40 S&W. I've looked everywhere for any details on this matter and all I have found is a myriad of sellers of conversion barrels, but nothing else. No instructions, no magazine reccomendations, nothing. Anyone know of any details on...

    S&W Model 617 problem

    I have a .22 cal Model 617 Smith and Wesson in stainless. 6" bbl. The cylinder hangs if I use any hot ammo (hyper velocity), i.e. Stingers. It seems that the cartridge case backs out of the cylinder and presses against the rear face of the frame upn firing and creates excess friction, not...
