    Online gun store report chargeback as stolen

    So I heard about this situation today, and was unsure if this was even possible. Basically a customer transfered a firearm through our local FFL from an online gun dealer. Apperently there were some issues with the firearm as soon as they got it home because they came back asking how they could...

    Optic for Springfield XDM 10mm OSP

    I am pretty new to the whole red-dots-on-pistols thing, so I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. I just got a 10mm XDM OSP model which has a cutout for red dots, suppressor sights and a threaded barrel. I am looking around at micro dots, and I'm hearing RMR, Doctor adapter...

    Best way to Removing Bluing

    Well I just got back from my LGS which got the Romanian TT-33c Tokarev shipped into from off of Brownells. Lucky me since I am from WA and this is a handgun, I get to wait 10 business days before I can pick it up. It had one weird "issue with the finish. Normally the barrel is not blue, and is...

    Savage Warranty Repair

    So I was excited to pick up a new plinker. It is a Savage Mark II 22LR from my local Bimart. Well my joy turned to sorrow when I realized the dovetailed front sight was off center and was wedged in so tight that material would have to be removed from the dovetailed post in the barrel to get it...

    Maverick 88 Questionable finish

    Ok so I'm still shocked by this. I got one of those inexpensive plastic clip on fiber optic barrel sights for my Maverick 88. Cliped it on and then needed to push it forward a little so it would rest against the bead sight and stay aligned. Grabbed a rubber mallet (which is in good condition)...

    I assume this isnt normal...

    I just got an Athlon Argos 6-24x50 BTR off Amazon in used "Like New" condition. Scope body looked fine and was about to mount it when I noticed some fillings or shavings inside the scope tube nearest the objective lens. I have never seen an issue like this before. I assume this needs to go back?

    AR-15 Handguard on AR-10

    Well the title says it all. Didnt think it was possible, but I was just going through my parts drawer for my budget build AR-10 (PSA Gen 3 AR-10 kit) and mine was set up with a classic A2 front sight with Delta ring and drop in handguards. I found an old UTG Pro handguard from a few moons ago...

    Boresighter = Crown wear?

    20191215_022505 by Plinkin' Logs posted Dec 15, 2019 at 5:29 AMI basically figured as much. My father was a "never put anything in the muzzle" guy, I assumed the worst when saw the marks. As promised here is on of the Rs22 crown in a close up

    Boresighter = Crown wear?

    Hey guys, So I got something in my head that has been bugging me for the past few days. I got one of those basic laser bore-sighters you can find on Amazon amongst other places. Seemed pretty straight forward. Attach the adapter and twist up to expand it until it is approximately the right size...

    Helping pick an handgun for female friend

    Just got back home, and finished reading the new comments. You guys must have physic powers because she is taking the NRA basic pistol training class at Freestate. Its what they recommended, and I agreed it would be a good idea. Too, new shooters are required to do a basic 20 minute firearm...

    Helping pick an handgun for female friend

    Thanks guys, that's sound advice. I will actually be taking her over to Freestate when I pick her up from work today based on your advice and letting her rent a few, as well as try my G22. She only works a short distance from my house and obviously the most recent events have rattled her a bit...

    Great, now we have to deal with this....

    I was also personally concerned because I noticed at least 4 unsafe firearm handling practices in place as well. One man who was interviewed had a hammer fire semi-auto that he defined as a "9mm Luger pistol". He stated he had one in the chamber and clearly had it in the holster with the hammer...

    Helping pick an handgun for female friend

    I know there are plenty of threads like this but hear me out. I have a female friend who also happens to be Muslim. She is has voiced to me recently that she is considering getting a firearm for self-dense as she has been harassed by a group of people near where she works that have threatened to...

    Great, now we have to deal with this....

    I'll start with my personal perspective: I am not Muslim. I did serve our country where we operated with the Kurdish Peshmerga, as well as many Sunni Muslims in rooting out Al'Qaeda. There are no soldiers I saw that were as friendly and fierce fighters as the Peshmerga, and I am told have a very...

    ISIS vs Iraqi Militiamen

    I know there are a lot of opinions out there spinning around the internet, a lot of it politically fueled. The Iraqi military had some major setbacks earlier this week in Anbar province. I for one am glad to see that the Iraqi people will not just sit on their laurels and let their country be...

    16" Midlength BCM: Which Buffer?

    The only thing different is the Spikes T1 and T2 use tungsten powder as opposed to weights. Some people say this actually inhibits reciprocal return force of the spring compared to the free moving solid weights. Some people prefer it.
