    Walmart and Guns

    New WalMart ID Policy Just a heads up on another new WalMart policy. On Friday I was in my local wally world getting a box of .22's and some other stuff. I was informed that it is now WalMart policy that any item that has an age restriction now requires ID to be swiped, no exceptions. This...

    .22 Semi-Autos

    Got some questions about .22 semi-autos since I'm in the market for one. I was in the gun store today to look at a few so I could narrow it down a bit and was able to fondle a S&W and a Ruger. Since I wasn't buying today tried not to take up to much of the guys time and didn't get to fondle...

    5.56 question

    I'm still new to .223 rifles so bear with me lol. I have a bolt action (700 SPS Varmint) in .223. As I understand it 5.56 is loaded to slightly higher pressures then standard .223. Does anyone know just how much higher the pressure is and if there are any other differences? I plan on...

    New WOTS

    Picked up a new toy a few days ago. Turns out I'm not sure when I will be able to get around to the hunting I was planning to be doing so traded off the 700 in .270 with this puppy- Remington 700 SPS Varmint .223 all around it's sweet. The stock is nice, the finish is great...

    So I need some shooting help

    Ok so if you have followed the "Hey I got a new gun!" threads you will already know that I recently finally got my first handgun, a Sig 239 in 40 S&W. Shoots great, haven't had one single hiccup in just over a thousand rounds now, and just feels sexy in the hand. But anyway I am having some...

    Uncle Mikes Holsters?

    So what's your general opinion of them? When I got my Sig P239 I wanted something to try out so I got a sidekick OWB and a IWB. Simple, basic, and while a few friends have let me try theirs on that felt better, they also cost that much more. I'm wearing it in the IWB right now and while...

    Bought my gun

    :D Well, bought may to strong a word, selected and put that puppy on layaway to pick up in a week or two would be more accurate methinks. Anyway, a Sig 239 in 40 S&W standard ol DA/SA. I think this is the start of a wonderful relationship....once I bail it out of lockup anyway.

    Charter Arms UnderCover

    So gun shop visit and theres a Charter Arms .38 snub nose, an older Undercover but looks to be well kept and in good shape. Felt good and thinking of getting it, comes with a holster but is really nothing beyond a nice extra. Price was (I believe) 189 or 169 I believe, thought about getting it...

    Sig or CZ or....

    So now that I've got a job with decent pay (and the overtime doesn't hurt :D) and seems that there aint a whole lot left to go wrong and cost me money I had been slowly saving up I'm debating what handgun to finally get lol. I was going for a Sig 239, much as I'd prefer a more powerful...

    Marlin 60 question

    Ok so for the first time at my range trip the other day I tried using round nose rounds in my Marlin modle 60, normally I use rem bulk pack HP's. These were still remington, just round nose. They fed fine, accuracy was really good.....problem was the tube mag. When I went to close the tube...

    Sig 232

    So today I got to fondle a Sig P232 and I really liked it, fit my hands very well and though it was double action I didn't find the trigger that bad. Two issues I had with it though- A) I don't care for .380. As a purely back up pistol it would be fine but as a primary pistol I would like a...

    100gr .270win?

    Was browing around midway just for fun and came across a 100gr .270win offering from remington. Reviews on the things are great including people recomending it for deer. 100gr on deer seems a tad light no? As for just in general what sorts of things would 100gr coming out of a .270 be...

    Looking for a video...

    Ok I tried, failed my searching as usual. I am looking for a video posted in a thread awhile back in which Person A took the postion as someone being robbed, and Person B as the robber with a gun stick in Person A's face. Part of a move was made in which the gun is pushed away in such a way...

    New dog, got questions

    I picked up a new dog yesterday. About a week ago my uncle got himself a black lab pup (bout 8 months so I still consider that more or less a pup for most dogs) and for some reason now he is surprised the thing chews when he wasn't giving it much attention and had not a single toy for it. So...

    Free float or full length bed?

    So I have been reading about modifications and came across what seems to be two basic schools as far as what to do with the barrel, free float and bedding the barrel. Which is your preference? Advantages and disadvantages of the two?

    Basic improvements

    So for a limited amount of money, say 150-200 what would be some of the basic first improvements to a rifle you would make? A Remington 700 ADL in .270win with the synthetic stock being our example since it is what I have and what I am looking to improve :neener: Most anything with the...
