    Click... and nothing

    I guess it could have been an already spent primer, but a lot of things have to go wrong for that to happen. First, a spent primer has to not end up with the rest of them. Then this spent primer has to somehow get mixed up in the supply of new primers. Then this spent primer has to go unnoticed...

    my remodeled Mini-14

    Very nice. I bought my Mini a few years ago (without the ATI stock) and really wanted to put the ATI on it for the pistol grip, rails, folding stock and forward grip possibility. Bought the stock, installed it and, for a number of reasons, didn't like it. I figured the Mini didn't need to...

    7.62x54R....?

    The 7.62x54R was invented in the year 8,000 BC by Mother Russia and the round was used to make the dinosaurs extinct, so that Mother Russia could expand and rule the world. That was awesome, I also loved the AR/AK/MN chart. I bought my 91/30 from Buds and have only shot it once but was...

    ruger new model blackhawk .357 with bisley grip frame

    Why is the free spin pawl such an improvement? I have the 6.5" SS Blackhawk and am quite happy with it. The click-click-click is what makes it different from the double action. Now the Bisley grip is interesting.

    Next gun: .357 Revolver

    Get a Ruger GP100 and you'll never look back. It's arguably the strongest DA out there and it's the best looking. I'm no Smith hater, I just think they're overpriced. When I bought my 4" stainless GP100, my wife fell in love. And previously she couldn't care less about revolvers. She...

    Pocket Carry. Really?

    I have tried repeatedly to carry IWB; I just can't do it without proclaiming to the world "I have a gun!" I am 5'11" 190lbs and unless I wear a coat and big baggy pants, the IWB option is gone, even with the LCP or LCR. Seems to me that most proponents of this carry style are bigger guys...

    revolver handhold

    I've never been a fan of the "thumbs forward" grip, although it seems to be the only thing taught today. I place my support thumb over my firing hand thumb and this works for all platforms. I think consistency is key here and this grip keeps my digits well clear of any moving slides, revolving...

    .357 Magnum vs. .44 Magnum, pros and cons!

    If it's down to the 357 and 44, go with 357. If you're not going to hunt with it then why pay a dollar or more per round just to punch holes in paper. Get yourself a Ruger GP-100 and you'll never regret it. 38 special wadcutters punch holes in paper better than anything I've shot and have...

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    I have a NAA Black Widow and carry it every day in my pants pocket in a pocket holster designed for the LCP. The pocket holster doesn't hold the revolver or conceal it any better, it just helps to keep some of the lint and dirt out of my gun. The Black Widow is my backup gun in the winter...

    How many of you were converted to revolvers?

    I grew up in auto loaders and always believed they were the only way to go. I remember debating with a friend why he wanted to buy a revolver when autos were far superior.... you've heard it all. One day I bought a NAA mini revolver in 22 magnum and thought "wow this is cool". Soon thereafter...

    S&W J-Frame .38 Special or Ruger LCR?

    Ruger has an amazing product with the LCR, that standard grip is very comfortable, the trigger and sights are good. The only downside is the rattle that seems to be common to the LCR, but it is not a problem in routine concealed carry. My wife carries it every day now and I will never see it...
