    Most accurate military rifle you have ever fired.

    Swiss K31 would be the most accurate bolt action rifle I've shot, but unfortunately it is getting hard to find GP11 ammo anymore. I have an Argentine Mauser that is almost as accurate with modern ammo. I've never found any standard issue service ammo for it. Most accurate semi would be the M1...

    K31 - did I miss out?

    Congratulations! I think you will really like the way it shoots. Post some photos when you get it. Now if we could just find a few cases of GP11.

    K31 - did I miss out?

    Keep an eye on your local Armslist, I've seen guys in my local area that obviously didn't know what they had, selling their K 31s for good prices. I also saw one at my local Gander Mountain the other day for $349, but it was pretty beat up. I remember reading an article a couple of years...

    Star Model Super B 9mm for CC ?

    I like my Super B, but like others have repeated it is a little too big and a little too heavy for full time cc. It is thinner than other full sized guns, so it does have that going for it. If you are just going to occasionally carry it then you could probably make it work, but probably not...

    C&R or New 308

    You are right I didn't want to mislead anyone, but its my understanding that they were building 303 Enfields in that factory before they switched to the 308 rifles. I know that they upgraded the metal for the 308 round including the barrel, receiver, etc., but I think they still used some parts...

    C&R or New 308

    I noted in my post that they were re-barreled. I didn't use the word "conversion". They were modified Enfield SMLE Mk IIIs. The modification came by replacing the barrel.

    C&R or New 308

    If you want a milsurp that will shoot 308, look for an Enfield modified Ishapore rifle. The Indians re-barreled them to shoot 308, and they are a sweet little bolt action rifle. The Ishapore is short enough to make a decent hunting rifle. Another more expensive option is to get a CMP M1...

    New M&P Shield Performance Center 9mm

    Thanks for the range report. Sounds like the new performance model is nice, but I'm sticking with my regular shield with the Apex trigger upgrade for now. If I were buying for the first time, I'd probably go for the Performance model, since it sounds like it has an excellent trigger, plus the...

    Out-of-the-box, Who's best?

    If money is not a factor then Dan Wesson.

    Fiber optics red/green also brand

    I like the Dawson sights that have the replaceable optics, so you can go from red to green, etc.. For my eyes black rears with a red front FO works the best, and this is what I have on my CZ 75B. I tried the green FO front sight, but liked the red better. Second choice would be green FO rears...

    New M&P Shield Performance Center 9mm

    Looking forward to range report and comparison between this and the standard Shield.

    CZ-75's vs Clones (Steel and Plastic) - Any worth having?

    I agree that its hard to beat a genuine CZ. I've got a CZ75B that is one of my favorite range guns. However, there are some good CZ type variants. I would't call them clones because parts typically are not interchangeable, and the guns feel different in the hand. Canik is a nice polymer...

    HK VP9 does not fair well in torture test

    Point is the H&K fared worse than other guns under similar test conditions. I'd still buy one if I had the $$. I just wouldn't carry it during the Zombie apocalypse.............don't you guys watch the Walking Dead? Those guys abuse the hell out of their firearms :neener:

    H&K or Sig

    I'm with the guy that recommended the PPQ if that is legal in the "Gun Hate State". Second choice would be the Glock 19. IMO Sig=Way over priced, H&K = over priced. Walther = good value for price. Glock = good value for price. The Sig would be the last on my list (heavy = not much fun to...

    Help me decide on wich Walther .9, please

    Get the PPQ. Best out of the box trigger available on a non-1911 handgun. I think the threaded barrel is a waste of money, but they have a threaded version available.

    Advice Needed Glock 19 ejection issues

    Make sure you have a good firm locked in grip. Let someone else shoot it, and see if they also have the problem. Even a slight loosening in grip, which can occur until you get used to a new gun will exaggerate the problem. As others have noted if this is not grip related it will often cure...

    Star Super B recoil spring problem

    I think the problem may be that Wolff has the springs listed incorrectly on their website. I checked into getting a new recoil spring for my Star Super B, but when I measured the OD of the spring as recommended on the Wolff website it was .415", which is the spring size they have listed for the...

    Muzzle Flash with Blazer Brass?

    Yea, I'm going to shoot it. I do reload, but it is not worth all the effort to pull all those bullets. I'll just close my eyes when I shoot it. :neener:...............I'm probably more accurate that way anyhow.

    New 9mm Shield

    I carry my shield in an Alien Gear Tuck 3.0 holster. You might want to check them out for a IWB holster. Their prices are cheaper than many others of similar build, but quality is good. It is a 2 clip holster, so is takes a little longer to set up than a 1 clip, but once you have it set, it...

    Muzzle Flash with Blazer Brass?

    No problems other than the flash, but this flash is bright enough in my dimly lit indoor range to be a distraction every time I fire a round. I figured it was probably a different batch of powder as the cause. I've got 1000 rounds of this ammo to go through, so I'm hoping that not all of it is...
