Just showing off my Stainless Covert. Just had it re-finished & the jewel work done. What you think?

With all the talk lately of ammo & reloading components prices going up & possibly shortages, got me thinking I should stock up my reloading inventory. Being a newbie to reloading, I've never had to endure any shortages. In relation to reloading components, I'm looking for opinions for a...

Picked up a new (20 shots down it. "Kicked too hard!!") Rem 700 300 Win Mag ADL with a synthetic stock on a trade today. I want to put a heavier wood stock on it. There's plenty on eBay but I'm not sure about this LA & SA thing. I'm assuming its a LA cause its a mag but I just want to be sure...

Had the day off & was bored so I grabbed the rifle & headed out to my shooting spot to test & play with some apps I downloaded off the Android Market. One is a range finder that works only with a mil-dot scope called "Mill Dot Calculator" I found it works pretty well when the scope is set to...

Need some help/advice guys. Now that I'm hand loading, I'm finding that we are shooting more! My father in law has a complete lead melting set-up & 400lbs of lead ingots he just said "Take it if you want it. I don't need it anymore"!!! So I want to start molding bullets for .380 auto for now but...

I was watching this hunting show today called The High Road. I think the hosts name was Keith Warren. He was Elk hunting on a ranch in Riggins, Idaho. He had some bad luck with his bow so the last day of his hunt he used his Glock! It was a .45auto, had tricked out sights & what looked to be a...

Anyone hear about a 20% ammo price increase starting May 1st? I've heard it twice today. Once at a gunshow this morning & again just now at the LGS. The LSG said to stock up on ammo because of this increase but I kinda think it's just a "Buy more" stunt. Something to do with metal prices...

I hope I'm not thinking I'm starting a new thread just to find out it's been done before. I didn't bother to search to see if it has. If so please forgive me but if not I hope we can have fun with it. I've just got into the whole "Target Pistol" thing & I was telling a great Aunt about it today...

At first I figured it was gonna be your typical "Beef Jerky" day the the Gunshow. High prices & junk. It was one of those "Smaller" local shows so I wasn't expecting much. The low $4 cover charge was the first "Ok, I'm already ahead" moment of joy, because the usual $10 cover around here is...

I don't have or ever had a 1911. A guy at work heard me talking about firearms & asked if I could help him idenify this pistol. I told him it looks like a standard 1911 but I'd post a thread here to see if I could get more info on it. Its says on the slide ...pat.apr.20.1897.sept.9,1902...

Ok guys laugh it up. Went out plinking today & the slide on my Walther P22 cracked in half below the ejection port!! If I could figure out how to post pictures with my iPhone I would (Maybe someone could chime in on that?). Anyways, just lastnight I responded to a thread defending the P22 &...

I went into Wal-mart today to buy some bulk .22lr to go plinking. When the guy was ringing it up he asked me if it was for a pistol or a rifle. I thought I didn't hear him right so I said "What?" He said that he needed to know if it was for a pistol or rifle & if I didn't answer the question, he...

* * * * ** To carry a gun is civilized! ----- THIS IS THE BEST WORDED PRO-GUN ARGUMENT THAT I HAVE EVER READ. *Very good article. As the Supreme Court hears arguments for and against the Chicago, IL, Gun Ban, I offer you another stellar example of a letter that places the proper...

Ok so the wife came home from shopping today & what did she have, a Bersa .380cc. The problem is it won't strip off the rounds when I rack the slide. Haven't fired it yet. I tore it down cleaned it & lubed & still same problem. I did notice that if I rack the slide REALLY fast, it seems to eject...

Buddy of mine just bought a model 689 in .375mag. It was used looks like it's in good shape. The problem is after putting some .38's & .375's through it, the cylinder release thumb tab rattles when you shake the pistol. I'm not a wheel gun guy. Never owned one but told him I'd post a thread here...

Ok guys I finally get to come to you all for help & advice. So I found a "Varmint" rifle that I'm interested in. It's a DPMS lower cambered in .308 with a 24" heavy fluted stainless barrel, Versa-Pod Bi-pod & Magpul PRS stock. It's used but I looked it over & seems in good condition. My main...
