    Are All Current Rugers Garbage?

    i love this post! It made me laugh. I love Ruger but really can’t say exactly why. I am one of those guys that can buy something that is “the most reliable item in the world of its kind and has never been documented to fail!” And it will fail me. And vice versa. People avoid the Glock 44 and buy...

    My LETSGO-15 build is mostly complete!

    Thanks for the positive feedback everyone! I didn't realize there was a Dog Face Pony Soldier Version, that would be a great addition to the stable. I noticed on Gun broker that people had bid a couple of LETSGO-15 stripped lowers above $100. Silly. Now for a question. With an empty magazine...

    My LETSGO-15 build is mostly complete!

    :rofl: Yeah, I think they really missed the opportunity, it should have at least been the LETSGO-14 or maybe even just the AR-14. Oh well, maybe they will do that in the future.

    My LETSGO-15 build is mostly complete!

    I really wasn’t intending on building another AR but on a whim I had to buy the “LETSGO-15” stripped lower from PSA. Naturally, this lead to the need to decide on and acquire all the other Lego parts to complete the build. I figured I would eventually buy an inexpensive upper from PSA but while...

    Muzzle devices ??

    I am very new to the AR world. So, I have essentially no experience with different devices aside from the device that comes on the Ruger AR-556 MPR and a standard AR flash hider. That being said, both me and a gun shop buddy of mine were very impressed with the complete lack of movement when...

    The M*CARBO purchasing experience

    Happy to hear that they are consistently excellent in their interactions. I received the last part of my order today. I can't wait to see how much of a difference the trigger for the Savage makes.

    The M*CARBO purchasing experience

    I recently made a purchase of rifle and handgun parts from M*CARBO and figured I would share that experience. For those that do not know M*CARBO stands for Military Carbine Brotherhood. They are a firearms accessories company that make quality parts for many different makes of firearms and they...

    Smith and Wesson M&P 15 22- tell me about them

    Not sure where the rumors of reliability issues are coming from. I researched the heck out of .22 AR’s and it seemed that very few ever had problems and that these were by far the most reliable and realistic option. Using that research, I decided to buy one for my daughter as her first gun. It...

    Western Washington Public Lands

    Ah, bummer. I’m quite familiar with areas up near the border but it has been many years since I have spent any time in the mountains off Hwy 2.

    Western Washington Public Lands

    Where exactly in Western WA are you located? That would make giving you locations a little easier.

    Do you guys take all this that seriously?

    I suspect that the answer to your question as to why we argue things to the level that we do is, this is a gun forum where things are discussed. If a topic comes up and a question is asked then people are going to discuss it. If everyone answered these questions simply by posting “Meh...” I...

    Glock 17 or Glock 19x?

    I have both a Gen 4 Glock 17 and the Glock 19X. It amazes me we still have people pulling out the whole "The G19X was built backward, it was answer to a question no one asked" line of dribble. Yup, it was such a bad idea that they came out with a black Gen 5 version of it and everyone that owns...

    By and large, gun cleaning products and lubes are a marketing gimmick.

    I think this all comes down to what is easiest and most convenient. And what is logical in the face of marketing gurus. While dish soap and water may work just fine, it is easier for me to sit on the couch or stand at the gun bench and use a little bottle of cleaner than it is to risk death by...

    Would it be dangerous?

    Your use of the word “backstop” in conjunction with THE REST OF THE STORY and the context in which it was used was absolutely not a problem. The reading comprehension of others seems to be the issue.

    Why does printing matter?

    Well said. I personally believe the worry over printing is very overblown. I went the worry route at one time too. I was carrying a Glock 23 and decided I needed something smaller so bought an LCP. I spent a lot of time checking out my printing in the mirror with the G23 and finally had the...

    Firearms Neophytes Panic Buying

    A small woman in her 40's came to the LGS today and said "I need some ammo for a 45" Gun guy asked her if it was a 45 auto or 45 long colt. She said "45". He asked if there was a slide on it and she said it had a slide, not the "round spinning thing" After she was given some ammo for the 45...
