    If you die tomorrow does your family know what to do with your guns?

    Yes, I like to keep records for my wife to have available when I leave this earthly body to meet my maker. I have a excel spreadsheet that I keep with all important documents which includes descriptions, serial numbers, retail value and resell value of all firearms, scopes, suppressors...

    Better first upgrade accessory for modern handgun...

    I have been considering buying a Trijicon RMR 6.5 MOA red dot for several years, but I can't seem to justify the expense or the training to become proficient and/or comfortable carrying the RMR, especially since I am used to standard 3 dot sights on my handguns, plus I couldn't justify the...

    Blazer .22 on sale

    At $0.04 per round the price isn't bad at all for Blazer 22 ammo, tempting. I have been waiting for the Blazer 22 ammunition to start showing up locally for maybe 3 years, possibly several years longer, I forget exactly how long. I finally saw some last weekend at Sportsman's Warehouse and they...

    how do you store ammo?

    I store my ammo, and reloading supplies, in military ammo cans in Rubbermaid 2 door freestanding storage sheds with padlocks in my garage. The ammo cans can be expensive to buy, but there are deals if you do regular price searches. It is surprising how many can be accumulated over time...

    Your Completed Gun Store Purchased AR/M-4;How Did You Make It Better

    I think previous posters have already hit on the basics fairly well for making a factory AR15 better. In addition to starting with a good quality AR with a free floated barrel, a high quality trigger is a must have IMO, high quality optics is another useful tool along with lots and lots of...

    AR's: Why build multiple Rifles instead of multiple Uppers?

    Because, the AR15 is only fully functional with an upper and a lower. Thinking of buying an extra upper? My guess is that soon after, that extra upper has its own dedicated lower - that's how it works for me anyhow. I've even seen stories of gun enthusiasts buying extra gun parts, and those...

    H&K P30

    I love my P30's P30L's and VP9's. Fantastic quality, ergonomics and accuracy with all 3 handguns, I don't know which I like best. I am hoping for a P30L Expert or P30L Elite to follow in the footsteps of the USP Series so I can experience HK's best modern 9mm with a Match grade trigger, wouldn't...

    First 45acp loads

    My trusty load for my HK45 using Hornady 230gr FMJ RN with WIN231 and/or HP38 is: Standard Load: 5.5 gr powder with 1.230 OAL Soft Load: 5.3 gr powder with 1.230 OAL As others have already stated, the OP's OAL of 1.260 should work fine as long as it passes the plunk test and cycles the action...

    Going to Washington State, can I bring my gun?

    OP might consider getting a Utah conceal carry permit if there is enough time to apply and receive a Utah CCP before you visit Washington or if you plan on an extended stay in WA or if you just plan to visit or travel to WA regularly. Here is a reciprocity map link...

    suggestions for electronic ear muffs needed

    I bought a couple of pairs of 3M Tekk Protection Tactical Sports Earmuff (Peltor) from Home Depot a couple of months ago when they had a $50.00 rebate going on at the time per each unit. Regular internet advertised price is just shy of $117.00 They have a 20db noise reduction rating, auto...

    H&K VP9 vs P30 ?

    I have had the same experience as many others with the VP9. I prefer a hammer fired pistol, but the VP9 is an excellent striker fired pistol. First shot out of the box with the VP9, I hit center X, the trigger is very smooth and it is the most accurate handgun I own. I also own the P30 and P30L...

    Leaving a handgun in your car 24/7?

    I am rarely without my concealed handgun so I really don't have a need for a truck gun. I live in a mid-sized city and do not leave my handgun in my truck overnight or for any extended period of time, however, I wouldn't have a problem with storing a handgun in a GunVault style gun safe that was...

    $700 to Spend - 2 Guns or 1?

    I never buy a handgun that I wouldn't trust my life with and I am with the group that suggests to buy quality over quantity every time. Buy once, cry once. I refuse to own any firearm that isn't exceptional for my specific use. If it is not exceptional, it gets sold to somebody who is willing...

    How much time to reload 1000 rounds?

    If you are looking to compare your dollar per hour cost, you will be disappointed. Reloading is not a hobby that is accomplished in a hurry, attention to detail doesn't have time limits. I don't know about the specific amount of time it takes to load using a progressive press for rifle...

    Which rifle and caliber should I consider?

    I think that you need to buy another AR15, maybe a SPR. Two is one and one is none. Next option to consider is 6.8SPC, still lightweight to carry, recoil only slightly more than 5.56 with better terminal performance.

    Looking for H322 experience

    I use H322 for a variety of ammunition with very satisfactory accuracy results. I have not measured the velocity with a chronograph, I am more concerned with the level of accuracy. 5.56 bullets: Hornady 55gr FMJ Nosler 64gr BPP Nosler 77gr BTHP Sierra 77gr BTHP 6.8 SPC bullets...
