After waiting 6 weeks to have it made, I got a double rig from Texas Gunslinger Co. I wanted something on the plain side, I might do some tooling myself and add a concho to the holster middle strap, but I'm happy with them as-is. The workmanship is excellent and the leather is first-rate. The...

I didn't get pictures, too busy pulling the trigger to press the shutter release. I called my good friend and landscaping buddy to see if he'd like to get in some trigger time on this nice cool day. He brought his stuff over and we loaded up the truck and headed for our club range. He had his...

Looking at maybe buying a reproduction handgun like a Single Action Army or similar style mid-late 1800's revolver. The prices on the website look pretty good and the pistols look great. In one description, it mentions the gun is made for Cimarron by Uberti. Anybody who shoots Cowboy Action...

I was talking to a neighbor of my Mom's the other day, he's a retired Army Colonel and is now high up the chain at a company called ZRODelta. He showed me a new rifle they are importing and marketing, although they have their own line of modular firearms. This is what he showed me, it's a .308...

....but who knows? I bought a S&W M41 target pistol today, been looking at it for several weeks. It has been in the bottom of the display case sitting on a beaver pelt. It belonged to the LGS owner's dad, who was the original owner of the LGS, but he took off for the Alaskan wilderness last...

Just ran across their website, never heard of them and they are just up the road from me, about ten miles away.

I bought a RIA GI model 1911 about a month ago, love the gun, but the grips are a bit plain. I bought a set of Altamont low-profile grips and installed them today. The thinner grips require replacing the grip screw bushings, which Altamont sends with the grips. Original, and new: Grips...

I found a nice holster that rides high on the belt, to keep the gun muzzle from poking out below a short cover garment. Made by Triple K, they call it the "Secret Agent". Comes in cordovan or black; nicely made, nothing fancy, but does what it needs to: securely hold your weapon. $54. I got mine...

This was at a Frontier Day at Hart Square, a reproduction 1840's village built over a 50 year period by a local physician. Over 100 original log structures, each one located, disassembled and reconstructed on his property. It's the largest collection of original log structures in the US. This...

I know I have somewhat of an orphan caliber; does anyone have any suggestions where to go for bullets beyond Hornady and Barnes? Hornady offers their XTP in a 210 grain, and Barnes has a hollowpoint in 180 grain. I'd like to find a JHP in 180-185 grain to use for a reduced powder/recoil load...

I have a 5-shot .38Spl Rossi revolver, has a 3" barrel; my Dad bought it back in the late 1960's or early 1970's, don't really know because he never told anybody he had it until he gave it to me when I was in my mid-20's. He passed in 1991. Anyway, it's nothing really special, as far as...

I've been spending a lot of time at the loading bench lately, and I screwed up a batch of .357 Magnum loads from not paying full attention to what I was doing. I have a stack of storage bins I keep my ready-to load brass and bullets in. Everything is clearly marked, but I didn't look as closely...

I've seen several videos reviewing CZ shotguns, the owners seem to like them a lot. Prices are pretty good, and there is quite a bit of variety in their model lineup. Anybody here own any of the CZ models, specifically a side-by-side? I've become enamored of their "Hammer Classic"; (NOT the...

I've had a concealed carry permit in my state going on 20 years. The current one expires in mid November this year, (2020), clearly printed on the front of the permit. County Sheriff offices are not open for in-person renewal during this COVID mess, so it has to be done on-line. Renewal is...

After many years of trying to interest my daughters in shooting, without success, they actually came to me last week and asked me to teach them how to shoot. They still have little interest in shooting as a hobby, but they want to become familiar with handgun operation, and especially gun...

Tell me about this rifle. I saw one in a gun shop today. I don't know the model #, but the rifle has a bull barrel, a heavy stock that feels like holding a Garand or M1A, (large thick forend and pistol grip). The front sight is a hooded post, the rear is a peep sight. It has a plastic trigger...

Bought a third Fox SxS today. I found a 16 gauge Fox B to go with the 12 and 20 gauge guns I already have. The date code indicates a 1962 manufacture. The shotgun has the expected dings and bumps on the stock, but the finish is intact; the stock actually has a nice tiger stripe in it that moves...

I'm putting an original replacement stock on my 12 Gauge Fox B and wanted it to match the original fore end. I got the stock from www.gunstocks.com. Nice piece of walnut, but they are sold requiring final inletting and some shaping to fit. That's all done now. I once had a 20 gauge Fox B...

I suppose this could be considered a counterpoint to the current thread about trap snobs. I went down to the public skeet range I usually frequent, thought I'd shoot a couple of rounds before the weather turned wet. It was pretty full when I got there; this range has a skeet range, a trap...

Does anyone have any issues with the rotary magazine in the 10/22? I don't own one myself, but this past week, I requalified a group of animal control officers, who are issued 10/22's. Each officer shot the rifle he was issued, and out of the seven, only two had no problems. Everyone else had...
