    Hi-point JHP45

If I hold JHP45 like what I do with XD45, the thumb on...

    The handguard screw (in front of mag well) keeps getting loose and I lost the screw. Is there a solution for the loose screw (preferably not some permanent sealant)?

    After AIM went OOS on it I haven't seen Mosin Nagant any where... I am looking for one under $250 shipped (not $600+....). I probably should have got one when they were like $80....

    Every time I go to the range the front sight gets lose... This time I had a close look and it seems Ruger used red loctite (at least it's red, not blue....) Ruger C/S told me to use blue loctite. Is this normal? Or my gun has been used? When I received it the gun does not look very new...

    Ruger MKIII 22/45 assembly hammer position

    I have a Ruger 22/45. I noticed a few times the bolt wasn't held open after the last round. I opened the bolt and saw nothing. How can I be sure there is nothing stuck in the barrel? How can I safely check it? A mirror?

    Today I had 2 fail-to-fire at the range. It was around 35F. I pulled the trigger halfway, get a clear view at the target and slowly pulled the trigger all the way down. It did not fire. The cartridges look good (Brown Bear HP), a very light strike on the primer compared to normally fired...

    Routers/switches stop bullets?

    I am just curious. Computer is probably not a good choice for cover, plenty of videos on youtube shows that. But I can't find anything on routers/switches. Those enterprise level routers/switches are so heavy.. Maybe they can do better than computers? Anyone has experience with shooting...
