    Looking for feedback on Troy Delta battle rail

    Or the Charlie. I'm looking to upgrade my M&P 15 handguard. I have a Mgapul MOE on it but want a longer rail to mostly be able to get my support arm out farther. I like to the look of the Troy Delta, I don't need a lot of rail space so prefer a non-quad and I'd also prefer to keep my front sight...

    Availability of .38 spl 158 lswchp?

    Are the "boutique" manufactures (Buffao Bore, double tap, etc.) the only ones currently offering the old "FBI load"? I can't seem to find any even "out of stock", instead it's discontinued or not available or something. Where is the Remington, Federal or Winchester? Just another part of the ammo...

    10mm ammo issue

    This round was in a loosely packed box I just received in the mail. It's a 200gr XTP that should do 1200 fps. Hard to know if it suffered this damage from packaging or shipping, but nonetheless, is this something the manufacturer should be aware of? I was surprised the rounds were loose in...

    LGS update FW, TX

    This was the first time I've dropped into this gun store since the "happening" (aka panic). They are generally highly priced, but I've used their range, gotten my CHL there and I do like their gun smith and get all of my smithing done there (his prices are very reasonable). I thought I'd see...

    Camping compromise gun, animal vs. people

    When out hiking or camping (in a place you can legally carry, openly or concealed) what is your gun of choice? Is it a compromise gun for all occasions whether you expect to meet backwoods pot-growers or a bear? Or do you weigh your likeliness of meeting either one and adjust your preferred gun...

    Another "What scope for my AR?" thread

    I've got a Sport coming and I'm in a conundrum on what optics I want to put on it. The role of the gun is paper puncher, predator control and HD. Since predator and HD is within the "scope" (pardon the pun) of this gun's usage I know that a non-illuminated reticle is nigh impossible to use at...

    Traveling from TX to Maryland

    We are driving from Texas to Maryland this summer for a wedding there and will be staying with a relative in a private residence. I have a TX CHL and see that Arkansas, Tenessee, and Virginia have reciprocity, but of course MD does not. So it appears, from my understanding, that I can travel...

    .350 Rem Mag, model 700 worth?

    We've got an older Model 700 in .350 Remington Mag. that's been sitting too quiet for too long. I think less than one box of shells have been put through it. It's not a common caliber, so that makes it a little trickier putting a price on it. Also, I guess Remington has reintroduced it in the...

    What choke in Stevens 940B 20ga?

    Just like the title asks, I inherited a Stevens single shot 20 gauge 940B that takes 2&3/4 and 3" shells, but I don't see any mark of what choke it may be. I'm guessing it's probably M or IC, but have no idea. Thank you.

    Mossberg's new Ar rifles

    http://www.mossberg.com/products/default.asp?id=45&section=products It's in the new Guns 'n Ammo too. They're going full on into the market with .223 and .308, hunting and "tactical". No forward assist, but it does have a dust cover. I'm curious how it'll stack up, especially against other...

    Best M4 style stock for AK?

    I find my wood stock to be awkward and a bit punishing, so I'm looking for something a bit more ergonomic. I'm thinking of putting a collapsable stock on my AK and wonder who makes the best? Stability, durability, fit, feel, these are my chief concerns. Also, ease of installation. Thanks.

    Emergency NM lever gun, .45LC or .30-30?

    We've got a cabin in a fairly remote part of NM, on a few acres and wildlife is abundant. For two-legged predators, coyotes, and even black bear in an emergency, which would you rather have, a 24" .45 Colt 1894 loaded with 300-325 grain loads or a 20" .30-30 336ss loaded with 170s or LE 160s...

    Need some picatinny rings advice for SX-AR

    I recently purchased a Winchester SX-AR which has two pieces of picatinny rail to mount rings on. I am using a Trijicon Accupoint 3-9x and need some medium rings to mount the scope with. I would like to NOT spend over $100 on a set of rings. Tactical Talleys and Leupold MK4s are out. What about...

    MAS 36 7.62x39 bolt gun

    I went to Cabela's in Ft. Worth today just to look around and I saw these in the used gun racks. http://www.wlawarehouse.com/store_front/mas-scout/ At first I thought it was an AIA x39 Enfield based bolt gun that takes AK mags, but then I realized it's something a bit different. It's got a...

    Best deer/pig caliber for compact Hawkeye?

    I like short rifles and seeing this Ruger offered in several calibers has me curious and interested. In a 16.5" bbl, .308, 7.62x39, 7-08, .243, .260? I'm liking the .308 for power and availability, but would there be too much flash and bang? Would 7.62x39 be a perfect cartridge for this length...

    spotted deer

    Anyone ever see or shoot a white tail deer with a spotted coat? I'm not talking albino or fawn spot but a 2ish year old buck with regular deer skin color but transitioning to white toward the rear with spots, almost like a paint horse? Honestly its color looked more like a calf at first.

    barrel/magazine clamp and light rail question

    I'm creating a bit of an uncommon HD shotgun in a Winchester model 120 shotgun I picked up at a gunshow. Winnies are my preferred shotgun since I learned on a 1300 20 guage. This 120 has a 24" rifle sighted smooth bore slug barrel on it and wood furniture. I plan on getting the barrel cut down...

    Anyone have any experience with them?t I'm specifically looking at an illuminated 3-12 for about $160. It has a bdc reticle that can be illuminated in red or green or can be used in black without illumination.

    GP-100 4" or 6"?

    I am wanting a workhorse .357 that will be a range, home defense, sometimes hunting and sometimes truk gun, but it will never be a "carry" gun. I have a 4" Model 19, but don't want to subject it to thousands of hot .357 rounds or alot of field abuse. I plan to shoot alot of hot and heavy loads...
