    Thinking about getting a Marlin 336

    A .30-30 is a great round in the woods. If you are shooting in open lands out west a .308 would be better. Look at used Marlins. Usually a bunch around and better quality then Marlingtons.

    Good ccw pistols? under $500 dollars [used or new], reliable, ergonomic for a lefty

    I shoot pistols lefty and I have 3 that I shoot without trouble. The LCP is very small and concealable. The SR9c is a great gun, large enough for range shooting, but pretty easy to carry.

    Ruger LCP 380 - the bad?

    I don't mind the trigger pull. I look at it as a safety feature. It is reassuring to know I'm not going to fire it without really wanting too. I painted the sights, yellow in front and white in rear, so sighting isnt an issue. I really wished the slide stayed open on empty. I just switch after...

    Who uses a Pistol Grip ONLY?

    I bought an AR style stock, pistol grip with adjustable stock. See http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/product/SHT-286 I think you need to shoulder a shotgun for accuracy. When I shoot from the hip I'm wild, but shoulder it and im dead on. You can shorten it up for home defense or extend it for...

    whats so good about mosins?

    They are cheap, loud, historic, fun to shoot, and a hoot. Did I mention cheap. I used to take my .30-30 to the range to shoot but I usually leave it in the safe and take my $99 Mosin instead. It is $0.20 versus $0.75+ to shoot and VERY satisfying to shoot. My Marlin is a better rifle, and...

    How Did The Commies Fight With Corrosive Ammo?

    I got a 2 spout bottle in a pouch with my Mosin Nagant. One side is for oil and the other for alkali. The alkali neutralizes the corrosive and the oil lubes. Basic field cleaning kit. Of course urine worked in a pinch. All ammo was once corrosive. Fortunately Hoppes 9 is from that era so...

    I just had to post this

    I saw a show about motorcycle gangs. One MC, name forgotten, carried a long maglight on a belt loop and a lock on a notted bandana in a back pocket. In a fight they had a club ( they called them kill lights) and a brass knuckle. If stopped they could say the light was for night time repairs and...

    What might be a rational metric for determining where the second ammendment ends?

    Get your facts straight Civilians had better arms than the army until the adoption of the M-1. The Kentucky/Pennsylvania rifle was superior to the British Brown Bess musket. The US Army didn't adopt the lever action Henry or Winchester (with rare occasions) but stayed with single shots...
