I've been comparing Eotech versus the Aimpoints, and decided to go with the Aimpoint, particularly the 2 MOA models. In looking over the choices, I compared the M4 versus the ML3, and just wanted to ensure that I wasn't overlooking something here. At the local gun shop, their pricing for the...

I have a nice AR with 24 inch barrel that I was looking to get some more use out of, particularly for long range targets and some varminting. I wouldn't mind trying some F-Class, also, if there are any matches situated here in the Midwest. I'll be doing some checking into that. I've...

I have an older Bushmaster M4gery, with the A-2 upper (14.5 inch barrel, AK style muzzle brake). I really dislike those sights and that receiver configuration, and after looking into some other combinations, said the heck with it, and decided to get the VIS system and do things right. BUT...

Some interesting things said here. From the WS Journal. FWIW, emc ********************************************************** COMMENTARY Khobar Towers By LOUIS J. FREEH June 23, 2006; Page A10 Ten years ago this Sunday, acting under direct orders from senior Iranian...

I have a Colt DSII that I purchased around the time that they were discontinued. I love snub-nosed revolvers, but haven't shot this one much due to the world's worst trigger pull. My intention was to ship this to Cylinder & Slide for some thorough rework (action job, round off trigger, install...

I'm sure that many Indiana THR members already know this, but for those who do not, I wanted to pass along some news about recent votes and comments by our junior senator. Quoting the American Rifleman from the Oct. 2005 issue - "Sen. Bayh pledged last year to support legislation to block...

I've heard on WIBC AM 1070 this morning that John Lott will be appearing Friday afternoon and Saturday at the Indianapolis 1500 Gun & Knife Show. Apparently, he has never been to a gun show before. He will be speaking and signing books. My understanding is that his presentation will be on...

I recently purchased a S&W M29-2 in bright nickel, with 4 inch barrel. The factory informs me that this was made in 1972. The revolver came with white (ivory colored) plastic grips with the S&W medallion. I've not seen these before (I'm not a collector or any sort of expert regarding...

According to what I read in the most recent rule book (5/2001 date), as of Oct. 2002, revolvers cannot have a barrel length greater than 4 inches. Paying a visit to the good old local gun shop, I was looking at the S&W 610 and the S&W 625-8. Both were new guns. I had thought that both had...

I may be able to pick up a 4 inch barreled S&W M29-2 in nickel plate at a reasonable price in near new condition. I know that Shooter's Choice and Hoppe's both have warnings on them about use with nickel finished guns. So far, I haven't found a good alternative. I've thought about the Blue...

I've been toying with getting an upper receiver for one of my AR15s in something other than 5.56mm. While I've been thinking about the .300 Whisper, I was curious about what others may have chosen, and their reasons for that choice. So, my question to you is: 1. What caliber did you choose...

I was just told by a gun shop elsewhere in Indiana that the Performance Center was prepping to produce a short barreled .44 Special Thunder Ranch revolver. I asked if this was the same heritage style revolver that is presently out, and was told that this is something altogether different...

I'm in the market for a short barreled, large bore revolver, and happened across a blued Smith M29 .44 Mag with a 4 inch barrel at one of the local gun shops. I'm looking for something to use for target practice, pin matches, and occasional use as a nightstand gun. I'm intending on handloading...

Here we go again.....:fire: If I understand the language correctly, this would appear to provide illegals with legal status, as well as making them eligible for in-state tuition rates at colleges and universities. This legal status would then also allow them to purchase firearms, in...

Once again, the courts have ruled that YOU are going to have to be the one primarily responsible for your own safety. All of us know this, but too many citizens do not. To paraphrase things - "Be careful out there, and carry MAJOR heat, WITH reloads!" Or...... "We need guns. LOTS...

Just heard on Hannity's radio program! The governor will announce his resignation later on today. There is allegedly a sexual component to the decision. We'll see what the scoop is as events unfold. FWIW, emc

I recently picked up a Savage 10FP in .308 (20 inch barrel) for a very good price, and proceeded to go through the slow process of breaking in the barrel. At the end of the day, after shooting from a bench using either a mechanical rest or the accompanying Harris bipod, I was sore and bruised...

A long time ago (insert either "in the Jurassic era," or "in a galaxy far away"), I recall having seen aftermarket snub revolver grips that had an integral hammer shroud. I've done a search here in the revolver forum, and on the net via Google, but haven't turned up anything. I'm expecting...
