What have I missed?

I may pick up this gun for $399.00. Here is the description. "Rock Island Armory 1911A1 45ACP 5"barrel, parkerized finish. Mil-Spec pistol in excellent condition. My question for the 1911 crowd, is this a reasonable price for this gun (it looks almost new) and what are the upgrades I...

Hey gang, I know this has been posted 10000 times and I tried to do a search, but there were so many results I did not know where to start. I will make this easy. What is the best complete reloading set for a beginner who wants to reload. I would also want the set to be able to expand...

Hey gang! I bought my 1st Glock (G26) recently and it left me with 2 subcompact 9mm's. I plan on using the G26 as my primary carry gun, but before I sell or trade my RAMI for something else, I wanted to make sure I was making the right decision. Before I begin I just want everyone to know...

I was looking at the Kimbers and the new Taurus 1911 when I noticed there were 2 Springfield A1 Loaded's in the case, one for $500 one for $599 (both used). The usual salesman I buy from was not working today so I was helped by an older guy I have seen in the shop before. Conversation went...

Need a IWB tuckable holster for my G26. Looking seriously at the Milt Sparks VMII and the C-TAC COMP TEC (sp?). I have always used leather holsters but I am curious about what the benefits of kydex vs. leather are. I live in South Texas so I deal with heat and humidity for 10 months out of...

After attending the local gun show today I came to the realization that I tend to be a little too spontaneous with my gun purchases and need to start buying guns to fill "niches" in my arsenal instead of just emotionally buying guns because they are "a good deal" or "cool" or "I have always...

Hey guys, since there is a sticky on the Revolver forum for how to check a used revolver, I though it would be helpful to have the same info. for a semi-auto. If it has been posted before I apologize. I have saved mucho bucks over the years buying used and I follow these steps everytime...

Hey gang, (I am going to post this on the Beretta forum as well) My local delaer has a nice Beretta 84 Cheetah that I am seriously thinking about buying. Here is my question. I know the 84 comes in Blued and Nickle finish. HOWEVER, this one is in a Stainless finish, more of a bushed...

Well, I dragged my wife to the new Bass Pro Shop, Outdoor World in San Antonio today. If you have been to one of these already, I apologize if this is stuff you already knew. To preface this story, my wife is not outdoorsy, thinks camping is a Motel 6, does not like hunting or fishing...

Hey gang, I know this thread has been done probably a 1000 times, so I apologize in advance. I tried running a search on this topic, but I don't have 3 years to read them all :neener: . I have had many pistols over the years, but I consider myself to be 1911 stupid, so I need some help...

Hey gang! (I posted this on TFL as well) Well my wife talked Santa into bringing me one of the presents I wanted the most for Christmas this year, the new i-Shot MODular range bag! I have been using an old laptop bag that served quite well but just did not hold everything I need for the...
