    Glock G41 confirmed?

    Hey all! I was just browsing one of my favorite blogs, the The Firearm Blog, and found this article (http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2013/12/04/glock-41-45-acp-13-rounds-mrsp-775-confirmed/) which apparently seems to suggest that Glock is going to offer a new .45 caliber, 5.3'' barrel...

    Izmash AK-107 ready for export!

    I'm really surprised no one has posted this yet THR. The AK-107, with the balanced recoil feature, is about to hit the civilian market!http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2013/03/06/saiga-mk-107-the-civilian-ak-107-with-balanced-recoil-arrives/ Assuming this clears the ATF, we could all very soon...

    Barnaul "Brown Bear" ammo. Good, or not so much?

    Hey all! Despite the current shortage, I have the opportunity to purchase some "Brown Bear" 123 GR HP or 125 GR SP ammunition for fairly reasonable prices to use in my AK-type rifle. I have previously had excellent experiences with Golden Tiger ammo, but I haven't really tried any Brown Bear...

    Optics for Saiga 7.62x39

    Hey all! Looking at (eventually) mounting optics on my Saiga 7.62x39.

    Perplexing malfunction, Kimber 1911

    So, I suppose it was bound to happen. I Had my first two malfunctions on my Kimber Custom II today. :( I was shooting, and the pistol locked to a slide lock position with the last round still in the chamber. The odd thing was that the back of the round was about 1/2" BEHIND the rear end of the...

    Hunting Psychology

    Hey all! To preface this, I've been a target shooter for a long time now. I love my guns, and shooting is honestly one of the most important things about who I am. The problem I have here is with hunting. Long story short, I took a rabbit today, but had to finish him off. Basically, I broke his...

    I'll take stolen for $150, Alex.

    So apparently a local "transient" tried to sell a customized Para LDA for $150, and got caught. Turns out it was a stolen gun. Couldn't have guess that one. Anyhow, that got me thinking... If y'all don't mind sharing, anybody else have any stories of deals "too good to be true?" Here's the...

    Anybody know about the Croatian PHP pistol?

    Anyone ever heard tell of a Croatian PHP pistol? One of the "regulars" at my lgs has one and showed it to me about three weeks ago. (he said it is the "long barrel" version) He said he shoots it at a few local matches, just because no one else knows what it is. I have no other evidence for that...

    CZ in .40 S&W, 10 or 12 rd mags???

    Hey, quick question.... Do the CZ-75s in .40 S&W come with 10 or a 12 rd. magazines? The website seems to show that they come with 10 rounders, but my LGS had one with two 12 rounders (which I should have bought)... :confused: I really like the CZ, and I dislike the 9mm, so a .40 CZ is close...

    LGS CZ 52 Rumor: Fact or Fiction?

    So I was handling one of the CZ-52's in my LGS today. The owner came over and asked if I'd ever heard about the accuracy proofs built into the CZ-52s. I said no. He held the slide a certain way, and showed me a series of pin-prick marks across the top of the slide. One of the 52's had three, and...

    Anybody CCW the CZ 2075 RAMI?

    So, I was over at my local Scheels, and saw a RAMI, NIB, for $350. It looked like a fine gun, was small, light, and had a high capacity. The funny thing is, I don't ever recall hearing of anyone carrying one. Does anybody here shoot/carry a 2075?

    Looking to get AK, $750 budget. Ideas?

    So, I'm looking at getting an AK-47 (or a AK-type clone) in the near future. My budget stands at around $750. What, in your opinion, is the best rifle that I can get with this amount of money?

    Trouble with my almost new FNP 40. :(

    So, I've had an FNP 40 for about 6 months now, put under 500 rds through it, love the gun, accurate, ergonomic, etc. The problem: So I take it out to the range, pull the DA trigger all the way back to the point where it can't move because it's against the frame, and it refuses to go off. To be...
