I have had a backorder for 5000 rds. of .22 mini-mags from a major ammo supplier since November. I received one "still on backorder" email from them in April. I have no plans to cancel my order.

8th grade...1978 or so... for our English class "demonstrate how to do something" project, my best friend brought in his .22 rifle and showed how to clean it. Teacher said ok as long as the principal approved. Principal said ok as long as the rifle remained in my friends locker before and after...

I did my part. I bought two AR15 lowers about a week before the election and ordered Stag uppers to go with them. As I recall it was several weeks before I got the uppers.

OP- I think offering to pay half is more than fair. To some of the other posters- If you were the buyer and the gun broke the first time you shot it, loaded it, cocked it, whatever... Would you be so quick to say "well it was ok when he shipped it, guess I'll eat the cost to repair"

I'm with blue_ridge... I can never find people to open the case for me. I wave my arms wildly at the security camera, walk behind the counter poking through stuff... Nobody seems to care. Walk down to paint or automotive, always the same "we will have to find someone with a key." I'm impatient...

Seems to be a cultural or age thing. I was taught that it is rude to stare at people. I first noticed this when I got a job on the white trash side of town. I'd pass some " gangstas" in my car and they would make eye contact. If you didn't look away, they took it as a challenge and flipped the...

I have got small- medium hands so I put on Hogue rubber grips. It makes the gun easier for me to control. I actually shoot it pretty well.

Sorry I can't help as I'm back east. But I had to comment on that range you described. Open 24/7 with 600+ yards for rifles. Holy cow! That sounds nice. If they have trap/skeet then I'm moving west!

I am right handed with a dominant left eye. I shoot pistol right handed and close my right eye. I just lean my head to the right a bit. I'll never be a bullseye shooter but I'm not too bad either. I started shooting trap and skeet last year. Mostly right handed with left eye closed. One eyed...

CZ75B My first semi-auto pistol. Beautiful duo-tone with graceful lines. I read many positive comments on it. I could not shoot it. My group was all over the place. Averaged a couple of FTF or FTE per box of ammo. I struggled with that gun for almost two years. I shot it less and my .22 Ruger a...

Crossbreed makes a very nice holster without a doubt. I ordered one for my xdm at the end of March and it took every bit of 6 weeks to get here.. Maybe 7 weeks. They have always responded quickly to my emails. Maybe it's the gun but I can't seem to find a holster anywhere for my xdm. I've had a...

$550-$575 around here for NIB. I would want to shoot it first. Those are nice shooting guns but I've read enough reliability issues to lay off buying for now.

If you really want to collect then follow hirundo82's advice. Get a C&R to buy directly from wholesalers. Back to the original question... Yes. Both LGS and Gander Mountain have over-priced Mosin Nagants. I've also seen some various Mauser rifles. The C&R market has been pretty dry for some time.

Thanks for the report. I'm looking for a BUG for pocket carry and I don't want to settle on LCP. I like the Kahr a lot... good trigger, decent sights. I just read too much about reliability issues. I rented one, really liked how it shot, but I had 3 FTE and 1 FTF out if 100 rounds. WAY too many...

I don't buy into this crap that today's kids are any dumber than we were as children. Most of us played some form of cowboys/indians, cops/robbers, or war when we were kids. We shot at one another with fingers, sticks, and some pretty realistic toy guns. Yet most of us managed to make the...

I have made a couple of purchases from Buds and the prices have been very good. It can take them a week to ship. I also traded a gun towards a purchase and received what I thought was a very fair price. I would rather buy locally but shops around me are generally 20% or higher on price. When...

Yep. Great pieces of history sent right to your door. Midwayusa and Brownells give a considerable discount for C&R holders. C&R market is not what it was a few years back but there are still some nice firearms available.

mgkdrgn and rajb123 nailed it pretty well. I'm in Ohio and the FFL does not collect sales tax on the firearm but does on his transfer fee. When we fill out our state income tax, you are asked for the value of purchases made outside the state where Ohio tax was not collected. Then you submit the...

I think either is a great choice. The Beretta 92 series was on my want list for years but never quite made it to the top until last week. I bought a new 92FS. Fantastic gun. I've only put a couple hundred rounds through it so far but it's been one of my best shooting guns. Points and...

My wife doesn't carry...yet. But she is my regular shooting partner at the range and skeet field. Darn good shot too.
