    I picked up an IWI Zion 15 (Z-15)

    So with everything going on politically I decided now would be a good time to pick up a new AR. Sold my ancient (but very reliable) highly modified Smith and Wesson M&P 15 sport w/ La Rue Tactical quad rail etc to a buddy who wanted a black rifle. First impressions: LIGHT! Damn. Coming from a...

    Lefties: Do you think IWI will ever release a "Tavor 6" ?

    So let me tell you what I mean and why I'm asking. I'm a right handed, left-eye dominant rifle shooter. I tried for years to be able to shoot right handed and it just doesn't work for me. My speed and accuracy go into the toilet. So I shoot rifles left-handed. Luckily the AR-15 is pretty lefty...

    1969 (I think) Browning Hi-Power picked up for a good price...

    Story-time: So a lady I'm friends with at work has an elderly father is very ill/senile. She knows I'm into guns and a couple of days ago she told me that he has "a pretty big gun collection" and that she's an only child and she is selling them off. Her husband "who really knows guns" has made...

    Bought a Glock 43, shot it at the range some (with Pics)

    Dad just gave me his 30 year old Browning Hi-Power…I have a few questions

    So my Dad just gave me his 30+ year old Browning Hi-Power. He is keeping his Colt Trooper Mk III for home defense and his Colt Cobra for carry. He says that I can have the Hi-Power on the condition that I don't "expletive it up with a bunch of flashy expletive." Up until about a year ago...

    My Gen3 Glock 17 just turned 15,000!

    In 2006 I got rid of a handgun that I hated and bought a Glock 17. The salesman told me that Glocks were "harder to shoot well" than other brands, had a mushy trigger but were incredibly reliable. Over the years this Glock has become by go-to pistol. I've been posting about it since I bought it...
