I found a pretty rare bird today. A CZ P-02. I’ve been looking for one of these guys for a few years.

RCBS 505 scale for $39! That's a heck of a deal. I have used a 505 since I began reloading a few years ago and I have no complaints...

I was reading a discussion in a Dillon reloading facebook group. One of the users who claimed to be brand new to reloading was explaining his plan was to teach himself reloading on a Dillon XL650 Auto Indexing progressive press. Another member cautioned that starting on a progressive press...

Who has good BE-86 or Unique data for the Berry's 9mm 124 gr Hybrid Hollow Point (similar to Speer GDHP)? Looking for something similar to a self defense equivalent load. I would consider other powders as well, but these two stand out from what I've read to far as good candidates.

Saw an interesting Ruger New Vaquero today. Shorter barrel, grooved front strap, rubber grips, wide flat hammer. I did a little internet searching and discovered it was a Ruger New Vaquero Montado. Apparently it's a dealer exclusive (Davidsons), and it was only available in 45 Colt, or 357...

Not sure if this has been mentioned before (I did a quick search and I didn't see anything on it), but I just found a guy that sells adult sized stocks for the Daisy Red Ryder. http://chiefaj.com/red_ryder_bb_gun_to_instinct_tra.htm This is big news to me. I bought a Red Ryder a few years...

Looking around at a local gun store the other day, I spied an older style Ruger SP101 with a 3" barrel and a windage adjustable rear sight (I find the newer, updated SP101 Rugers to be less appealing). I glanced at the price which was around $475, which I didn't think was a great deal, so I...

My first few trips to the range with my S&W 9mm Shield had me really starting to hate this little gun that I wanted so badly to love. My accuracy with the gun was very poor. The grip was too short and too narrow for me to control. The extended mag is funny looking so I added a pierce pink...

I picked up a Springfield Armory LW Compact Range Officer in 9mm (officer sized 1911 with some bells and whistles). I usually load a Montana Gold or a Berry's MFG 124gr RN bullet to about 1.135" OAL for my CZ's, which I shoot most often (and have, so far, had the tightest/shortest chambers in...

Is the Apex Tactical carry kit still worth installing on one of the newer (allegedly) re-designed non-safety versions of the shield? The trigger pull on my gun out of the box is about 6.5#. My accuracy the first time out was a little poor, but I'm guessing I just need to devote some serious...

According to my read of the ATF policy, it is perfectly legal for non-licensee residents of the same state to ship a gun via common carrier (UPS or FedEx are the ones that the ATF calls out). "Q: May a nonlicensee ship a firearm by common or contract carrier? A nonlicensee may ship a...

I bought some moon clips on eBay last year to see if I could fit 45 ACP in an S&W MK II Hand Ejector that had been rechambered from .455 Eley to .45 Colt. Fortunately for the 100 year old gun, the moon clips wouldn't fit, but it started me thinking that it sure would be a waste of $12.00 if I...

Last summer I bought 3 sets of the 2x4 basics work bench legs (http://www.2x4basics.com/WorkBench-Legs.asp). If you are not familiar with them, it's a kit with 4 composite pre-drilled bench legs. You just add lumber for the top and a few under shelves. I have a decent bench right now, but...

I just bought a 3" S&W 632 in 327 Federal, which obviously means I need to start loading every possible cartridge that I could realistically shoot out of this gun - 327 Federal Magnum, 32 H&R Mag, 32 S&W short/long, etc. Missouri Bullet Company seems to have me covered for the 32 H&R and below...

I've been using my large pistol case feeder plate in my Dillon case feeder with much success...other than being made from different plastic,they are pretty much identical. When I was gathering up supplies to load .223 in my Dillon 650XL, I bought a Hornady Small Rifle Case Feeder plate just...

I recent acquired a 22 WMR Dan Wesson revolver. This is my first exposure to 22WMR, but I notice that every few times I reload, the cylinder gets VERY tight. If I look under the extractor star I see brownish yellow burned powder kernels. If I clean them out the cylinder will close without...

As Pre-B CZ's are starting to get scare (around these parts at least), the examples you see for sale are getting more and more ratty, and the price is starting to creep up on even these. Still, I have trouble walking away from any CZ that I can get my hands on for under $400. I picked up this...

Beauty and aesthetics are certainly a subjective thing, but I'm curious what future generations will make of all of this color coating and pattern wrapping of guns. Without anybody getting their feelings hurt, and recognizing that everybody's opinion is valid, even if you don't agree with them...

I was fortunate to find this beautiful Norinco 1911 at a decent price.

I went to the gun store today just to LOOK. I got this stuck to my hand These guns were only made for a couple of years and seem to be well regarded. I also put a hold on a 3" Rossi 44 special with adjustable sights from the same era. A Rossi 720 I believe.
