I wanted a Win. 94 carbine for a long time and put it off until “one day”. Next thing I know, Win. stopped production of the 94 and used ones promptly started commanding $600+ in my neck of the woods. A short time later I went to a gun show and a guy at a private table was asking $250 for...

I’m moving my machinegun to another State. This will be a permanent move and I need to know what form I need and can I get it online? Also, how long does it take from the time you send it in to when they approve it? Thanks….. Frankie

I know that a DIAS is, in and of itself, a machinegun and must have been registered as such. If you have a registered DIAS and you want to put it in an AR-15, you must first exchange the following parts with M-16 bolt carrier, trigger, hammer, selector and disconnector… THEN you add the DIAS...

I was searching for a fast way to reload my shotgun and found this on YouTube -- Army Pro Shooting Tips: How To Speed Reload A Shotgun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5WxLmwuBRTQ Two methods are shown: 1- Side Saddle Reload 2- And the really fast Off The Belt Reload (aka Weak Hand...

Bug Out Bag… Bugging out from what? I’m fairly new to this bugging out concept and it seems mostly directed to SHTF and disaster scenarios. Am I missing the point or are there other situations where bugging out would be a viable method for self preservation rather than maintaining a defensive...

I’ve been reading about how some rifle shooters say they are getting better accuracy by not removing the copper that has filled the crannies in their barrels. Instead they are only removing the carbon, powder residue and the copper above the metal surfaces on the inside of their barrels...

I have a bolted down 5’x3’x3’, 750# safe that has no specifications for fire protection. I feel secure about theft protection but not at all about fire. If you have the same problem, would you share how are you handling it? Thanks.....Frankie

Anyone using appendix carry as occasional or primary carry? I normally carry IWB at 4 o’clock with a open front cover garment (vest, shirt, coat). I like the idea of appendix carry because no extra cover garment is needed. The only drawback I see at this time is the need for one hand to lift...

I seems that we always take a defensive posture when it comes to the Second Amendment. The antis launch one attack after another, and while they don’t usually win, there are a host of concessions that have been made to them. The antis playbook is simple: Take us apart piece by piece. You...

Can anyone who is using an aquarium air pump taped to the powder measure tell me your procedure? On all of the time; on at first for x minutes and off until… or??? Thanks.....Frankie

If background checks are to determine eligibility, why do they need any information on the firearm other than if it‘s a handgun or long gun due to age restrictions and number purchased on handguns? Or maybe I should ask, ”What is their excuse (other than the obvious) to have all that specific...

I want to shoot 3” magnum shells out of a Rem. 870 Magnum Receiver using a 2¾” barrel with rifle sights. If it can be done what do I have to do to accomplish this?

I’ve noticed quite a few screen names that are aviation related. I am a pilot and I have a Piper Cherokee that I use to get to nearby cities that have IPSC, IDPA and skeet matches because there are none where I live. I was wondering how many of you gun enthusiasts are pilots, what do you fly...

I saw this method of case cleaning in the NRA "Handloading" book and I thought I would give it a try. I bought some anhydrous citric acid and I want to use the handbook’s suggestion of soaking the cases in a 5% solution for 5 to 10 minutes. What is the ratio by volume of the anhydrous...

The Gun: S&W Model 1000, gas operated, 12 gauge, auto loading shotgun, 3” chamber, “Multichoke” with a 28” ventilated rib barrel. Except for a very thin and very shallow 2” scratch on the left side of the receiver and a tiny nick at the toe of the stock it was pristine. I paid him $175...

Joe Biden tells Kate, “Buy a shotgun… You don’t need an AR-15... they are harder to aim and harder to use…” as depicted in this humorous video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jafkVM-jnbE&feature=player_detailpage I’m not knocking shotguns (I own & use 15 of ’em), but I just wanted to share...

I am going to sell a rifle and a pistol FTF to someone in Mississippi that I don’t know. What am I required to find out and or verify, if anything, before letting them take possession? Specifically, do they have to prove that they are a resident and that there are no prohibitions to them having...

Is Iosso Bore Cleaner a good substitute for J-B? I’ve been using J-B Bore Cleaning Compound for many years. Every place I normally buy bore cleaning supplies from is out of stock. Today I bought a tube of Iosso Bore Cleaner as a substitute. I’m having second thoughts about using it. Is this...

I have a Browning Highwall reproduction rifle that the previous owner stripped off the finish on the stock and fore end and stained it green (so ugly that you spell it with 4 "U's" -- uuuugly!). It did have beautifully figured wood that I would like to restore to it's original condition. How...

Several months ago I purchased a used, Leupold scoped, pristine Rem. 11-87, 12 gauge shotgun with a rifled barrel. I am just now getting the bug to go outside and shoot it today. I know that rifled barrels are meant for sabot slugs, but I have none on hand. Is there any danger in harming...
