Hey guys, just curious as to what seems to me to be a lack of folks from DFW posting hunting rifles in the classified section anymore. I bought a nice Weatherby from there a while ago but it seems like the "action" has somewhat dried up on bolt action hunting rifles. Anyone notice the same...

Do the Browning BLR 81 Take Downs hold their zero after break down and reassembly if the scope is installed on the receiver? Thanks for your advice!

Does anyone have any experience with the Brazilian M94 Mauser 7MM? I found a sporterized one in reasonably good shape and I am thinking of buying it. It is from the FN factory. I was wondering if it was strong enough to use as a hunting rifle with modern ammo. In Frank de Hass' 4th edition of...

Please I need you help and advice! I just found a used 35 Whelen Interarms Mark X at a large chain store that sells used and new and put it in layaway, and now I am trying to decide if I should keep it. It has a synthetic black stock. I always wanted one of the Remington 700s, but the stocks...

Does anyone have experience with the Burris 2-7x35mm FullField II Rifle Scope? Would you recommend it? What are the pros and cons? If I bought it I am thinking about using it on some 6.5 Swedes, a 35 Rem Marlin Lever gun and a Marlin 24 inch barrel 45-70 lever gun. Thanks in advance...

Can anyone tell me about this rifle? I have heard some rumors, not necessarily specific to the 6.5 x 55, that the trigger is worse than both the original MK as well as the MK HAWKEYE; that Ruger was farming out barrel making for some of their MK II rifles early in the second generation cycle and...

Hey guys: I have a 6.5 x 55 Swede and I really like the caliber. I am thinking of getting another 6.5 in a rifle of longer reach, just for kicks and grins. I am considering a 6.5 x 284, a 6.5 Creedmore, and a 6.5 Win Mag. Not interested in a Remington due to Remis reportedly having a 1:9...

Does anyone know anything about this rifle?. #1 question is will a scope attached to the mount on the receiver cover hold its zero? It seems a little lose to me and I have looked at 2 of them. Thanks in advance for your response.

What is the bottom line on barrel brake in of a new rifle? This may be an old subject but I am coming from the handgun world and this is new to me. Howa's web site talks about cleaning your barrel ever shot for the frist 10 shots and after every two shots for the next 10 shots so that your...

I have a new M10 from the CO gun company. It is a 74 (545 x 39). I is my first AK. It shoots well, has never had a misfire or jam, and has a seemingly slightly smoother action than other AKs I have handled; (handled not fired). The issue I have is that when I fire it, I seem to get gasses in...

Can anyone share their expertise on what ammo is safe to use in a 6.5 x 55 Husqvarna M38 straight bolt handle (ala I think a 96 factory cut down?). I have seen some posts that that older swedes potentially can't handle hotter stuff due to something with the bolt lug design not being as strong as...

Who is currently manufacturing the 6.5 x 55 rifles. I think CZ and Tikka but I am not sure. Any others? Can anyone please advise? Many thanks

I know this is subjective, but I would appreciate your opinion on what hunting rifle would be the best "fit" for a guy who is 6'2" and has a sleeve inseam of 35 inches. Most of the rifles I am seeing seem to have stocks that are too short for me. Mnay thanks in advance for your advice.

I am getting ready to buy a used rifle for Texas Hog Hunting. I am a handgun guy making the transition to long guns. I want to take my father in law from overseas with me so I am buying 2 rifles. I have bought a new Marlin Guide Gun in 45-70 for close in work so now I am looking at a rifle for...

I saw one of these and did some research on the Internet. Not much there. Anyone with experience hunting with this rifle? Enough gun for Texas wild hogs or is it just a deer gun?

Does anyone know what the rules are for transporting a loaded shotgun in your car/SUV as a self defense weapon? Does it matter if you have a Texas CHL and are in Texas? What about a Texas CHL in Oklahoma? I picked up a book today on Texas gun rights but it just makes the bald statement that the...

Could someone recommend a good pistolsmith in the DFW area? I just bought a new Smith 1076 and would like to get it looked over, maybe replace all the springs with Wolff, etc. Many Thanks!

I have been thinking about picking up a Browning High Power after handling one at a local shop. It seems like I once heard to only get one that has "Portugal" stamped on the slide as the non Portugal assembled ones are less reliable with hollowpoints. Can anyone with experience with these...

Does anyone know if there is an IDPA gun list? I looked at the regulations and could not figure out if my gun was qualified/disqualified. I called their office and they did not know!! I finally uncovered info that since my gun is discontinued and less than 20,000 were made, I can't use it (S&W...
