    Gunpowder container not sealed?

    Just bought some Alliant BE-86 and the container was not sealed. The plastic seal is stuck up in the cap and not over the mouth of the container. Is this normal?

    Question about zeroes and shooting height difference

    So imagine this scenario... My AR-15 is zeroed at 200 yards from a bench. I placed the target I used when I zeroed at the same height as my barrel. Now, how would my zero be impacted if I were 20 feet higher than my target, laser measured at the same range? Below is a link to a crude...

    Painting front sight post

    It is very difficult aiming at black targets with my AK since the rear and front sights are black. I have no problem seeing the rears...just the front. I would like to paint the front sight post a high visibility color. Problem is...I don't know what I should use to paint it. Something that...

    Mossberg 590 pumping issue

    When the bolt of my Mossberg 590 is all the way forward (in the firing position) the pump action locks so that you cannot pump (unless you press the override button). Now, while this is locked, you can pull back on the pump handguard about 1/8 of an inch. If you have the pump handguard pulled...

    Cleaning dirty bronze bore brushes

    My bronze bore brushes are starting to get a little dirty. I'm wondering if they are depositing more gunk into the barrel than what they loosen up. What's the best way to clean these off?

    AR-15 magazine insertion issue

    30 round Pmags DPMS receivers I get the same issue with multiple pmags whether it is 28 or 30 rounds loaded. When inserting a magazine with the rifle in the closed bolt position, usually you give the magazine a little slap after insertion to make sure it is seated properly. OK. Well I've...

    M193 Question

    Is true M193 supposed to be boat tailed, or not? It seems like half of the stuff up for sale says FMJBT and the other half just FMJ. Thanks.

    Thoughts on Lake City ammo?

    Making some substantial 5.56 ammo purchases pretty soon and it seems like this is the cheapest for M193 and M855 right now. I don't have any experience with Lake City ammo though. All I know is they make stuff for the government. So basically my question is...is it any good? We don't get sold...

    When did they take away full autos?

    Anybody got the quick full story on how and when this happened. My understanding is it happened in 1986 (under Reagan) and it's only for new production full autos.

    Arsenal SAM7R pricing

    Looking to get an Arsenal SAM7R. MSRP is $1299 and seems to be about what they are going for. Should I be able to find one substantially cheaper than that, or does that sound about right? Thanks.

    When did Texas lose open carry?

    Please give me the history of this. I have searched and can't the answer. How could such a supposedly gun friendly state lose this fundamental gun right?

    So my fiance and I joined the NRA last November, we have the 2012 wallet cards, and we've been getting renewal mailings about once a month ever since. When do we actually need to renew, is our membership good until a year after our join date? If we pay for 2 years will they quit bugging us about...

    Shooting upwards while prone

    So out shooting with the AR-15 with a bipod prone. This is fine and dandy. But how on earth can I aim the weapon upwards a good amount? Is there a technique for this....or is that only for crouching/standing? The stock slips off my shoulder long before I've maxed out my upwards aiming. I think...

    Beretta 92c 9mm

    My father just called me...he was at the gun shop and signed up for a CCW class and fell in love with a Beretta 92c 9mm (or he thinks that's what it was called). He wants me and him to test fire it since I'm the "firearms expert" :what: The gun is supposedly used with about 100 rounds through...

    Chip on new glock barrel

    Just picked up a new Glock 26 Gen 4. See the picture linked below. It has what looks like chipped finish on the muzzle of the barrel. Is this going to be a problem or not? http://i.imgur.com/t7yQdmg.jpg

    Was cleaning wads off the dirt pile we shoot at and found this...what is it?

    I'm talking about the white ball. It is slightly larger than 000 buck (according to my book) and I have included a #2 birdshot pellet next to it. http://postimg.org/image/5voa8jbdf/ http://postimg.org/image/uawi9laab/
