Has anyone ever tried these cases? http://www.caseclub.com/gun-cases.htm I am thinking about buying the 7 pistol case and the 6 revolver case and was wondering whether anyone here has experience with them. Are they as durable and water/dustproof as Pelican cases?

Inspired by a couple of cool, fun YouTube videos I saw on the 930 SPX, I took an interest and looked for it at a recent gun show. It was a big letdown. First of all, I found three and all three had loose forend. One of them actually rattled quite badly. What gives? Second, the LPA sights...

Today I bought a SIG P226 Elite SAO that I had been seeking since its introduction earlier this year. After I brought it home and played with it a bit, something was noticeable right away -- the safety was pretty mushy and did not always make the "click" sound and did not always engage the...

I was looking at the Ultimak Rail, but the version for the older pre-2008 Mini-14 has been out of stock for a while now. Does anyone else make a rock solid rail system for the older Mini-14's?

Does anyone have any experience with the Hogue "over-molded" stocks for Ruger Mini-14 and 10-22? I have older Mini-14 and 10-22 and find the curved buttstock not particularly ergonomic. I noticed that the Hogue stocks come with flat rubber buttpads (seem to reduce recoil too). How well do...

I have an older Springfield 1911 "Loaded" -- from the days when this model was made with staked on front sight and the edges were extremely sharp. A while back when I lived elsewhere I had the edges softened somewhat by a local, no-name gunsmith. I haven't used the gun much, but I am now...

http://www.sigsauer.com/CatalogProductDetails/p226-elite-sao.aspx Does anyone have any idea when these would be available? I always liked the SIG pistols (had a P229 once and have a P225 now), but never cared for their long double-action triggers. A P226 in SAO would be much welcome (yes...

Has anyone here tried putting a side rail mount with the Aimpoint T1 on an AKM-clone? I know the cheek weld turns into a "chin weld" with the side rail mount, but T1 is pretty small, plus with a Vltor stock adopter, one can mount a check-riser on a polymer stock. If anyone here has some...

I am seeking advice about mounting an Aimpoint on a carbine. I plan to use the Larue quick-detach mount, but have not decided on the height. My carbine has backup iron sights that are flip-up and low-profile when flipped down. The question is, should I opt for a taller mount so that I can...

I just bought some Magpul and Lancer magazines from AIM, Inc. to use in my new SIG 556 Commando. The 30-round Magpuls with windows seem pretty sturdy and slick. The followers move smoothly up and down when I push them with finger. The 20-round Mapuls, however, are not so slick. When I push...

What do most folks consider to be the minimum number of standard capacity (not neutered) magazines a gun owner ought to have for his pistols and rifles? 2? 4? 6? 20? Right now, I have at least 4 per gun (some a lot more; only one less, the newly purchased P225), but I am thinking of going...

Does anyone have any experience with either of these stocks for Mini-14? http://www.cdnninvestments.com/mini143.html http://www.cdnninvestments.com/rumit6co6stn.html It appears that the first one collapses AND folds, while the second one only collapses. I would appreciate any...

Since I recently purchased a SIG 556 Commando, I thought I'd join the above site, except for some odd reason, my e-mail is banned???!!! :confused: I tried to find the e-mail for the administrator, but I apparently need to register and log in first! Has anyone else had trouble signing up...

I have been hunting for a SIG P225 for a while, and only recently became aware of two types that are available online: The European P6 Police Trade-in, which seems to go for about $270 online and the "certified pre-owned" SIG P225, reconditioned by SIG armorers, which seems to fetch about...

Could someone recommend a good online store for a high quality AK clone and also for Sig 556 (esp. Commando Carbine version)? I found a local FFL willing to do transfers for $22 per gun, and I'd like try out the FFL, and now I need a good online seller. Thanks.

http://www.leesburg2day.com/articles/2008/07/03/ashburn_today/news/ab689sclub070308.txt It appears the club will operate as a "country club" of sorts for civilians. Does anyone in Northern Virginia have more information about this place?

Has anyone ever used this company? http://www.dandjgunrepair.com/ And if so, was the experience positive?

I saw one of these at the last local gunshow. I really liked the looks and it seemed to balance much better than the base model SIG 556, which was very front heavy. I was amazed how much of a difference half a pound of weight up front made in handling. However, I did notice that the SIG...

I am thinking about purchasing a firearm to celebrate the birth of my firstborn son. I would engrave it with his name and birthdate and present it to him when he reaches suitable shooting age (5 or 6, depending how mature he is at that time). At first I thought of buying a youth sized rifle...

My memory is fuzzy, so I cannot recall the details, but I remember something about Sweden deploying less lethal service rifle of some sort (I think there was a brief article in the American Rifleman). Could someone more knolwedgeable confirm this or otherwise clarify this as a hoax? The...
