    Boyd's Laminate stocks

    I ordered a Boyd's laminate stock for my Remington 700 ADL to replace the plastic one it came with. The rifle actually shoots pretty well with the cheap factory stock, I just never really liked it. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with their product. Anyway, I ordered one and...

    Redhawk - Rear sight blade replacement

    I am going to replace the rear sight blade in my Ruger Redhawk. What do I need to do? Do I just loosen the windage adjustment screw enough and it falls out? Thanks in advance for replies. --meathammer

    Beretta 96 Hammer Spring

    I've decided to replace the hammer spring in my 96 to lighten the trigger pull. While the trigger on my pistol is not awful (I'm used to it), I've come to appreciate a lighter trigger thanks to now owning a couple of 1911s. From searching previous threads, members here have used a "D"...

    .44 magnum - What's a decent practice load?

    I have a 5.5" Ruger Redhawk in .44 magnum that accompanies me to the range . I usually shoot CCI blazer, as they are cheaper than most. I get excellent accuracy with Hornady's 240 gr XTP, but a little too pricey to shoot a lot of. What else is a decent factory target/plinking load that...

    What fun!

    A few weekends ago I shot sporting clays for a bachelor party. It was my second time, and I shot 24 out of 50. I know, not that great, but I shot the best out of our group of five. I also was the only one using a pump. (Browning Invector+, 30") I admit, true pairs would probably be easier...

    Firing Pin for a Stevens 94C

    I inherited a Stevens 94C 20Ga. and have made a project of cleaning it up after years of neglect. Everything appears to be in working order except for one kind of important part. The firing pin. It's broken. The part appears to be cast. I haven't had much luck finding a replacement pin...

    Scope Bases-Standard vs. 20 moa cant

    I have decided my next rifle will be a Savage 10FP in .308. The scope I want to mount on it will be a Leupold Mark 4 LR/T 3.5-10x40 with M3 target knobs. Looking at scope bases, what would be the maximum range/elevation adjustment I could get out of this scope using a standard base vs. the...

    Holster for Ruger 22/45?

    I took a new shooter to the range

    Last Saturday I took my girlfriend to the range. It was her first time. I gave her some foam earplugs and my muffs to put over them. I know how loud indoor ranges can get, one of my buddies developed a flinch until he got proper hearing protection. I didn't want her scared of the noise...

    ATC Tomahawks

    I received my LaGana tomahawk from American Tomahawk Co. Link: http://www.americantomahawk.com/index.htm I bought it primarily for the "neato, I want " factor. Basically, I wanted it fun. It could definately be a useful camping tool, and small chores requiring some chopping. Maybe a...

    A.r.m.s. #38 Swan Sleeve Question

    I ordered the A.r.m.s. #38 with the flip-up BUIS. There is an allen head screw in the front of the mount (opposite the sight). Could someone tell me what that screw is for? Thanks!

    Stock Options

    I'm thinking about swapping out the stock on my Rem 700 ADL. It's a long action (7mm Magnum). The first stock I was interested in was the Hogue rubber over-molded stock with the full length bedding block. Then I found out they only make it for a 700 BDL. :( I want to hear some ideas...

    Beretta Factory Magazines

    I want to purchase a couple factory 10 rd mags for my Beretta 96. Can anyone tell me where to buy these online? (Reputable sellers please) Beretta USA doesn't have them in stock. I don't want 3rd party el cheapos either. I have a few Mec-Gars that work well, but I would prefer factory...

    Mark Brown AR-15 Flat-top Mount?

    On Bushmaster's website: http://www.bushmaster.com/shopping/scopes/mbc-03.asp Is anyone here using this mount? I am curious as to what the sight picture looks like with an Eotech holosight mounted on it. Do you have to adjust your cheek weld when using one or the other? As I understand...

    My new arrival

    I picked up my Mossberg 590A1 yesterday. I'm as happy as one can be without having shot it yet. I'm too busy to take it out any time soon, so the thing is going to sit there taunting me. There's a lot of sticky grease to clean out of it, maybe I'll take it apart tonight and get it...

    Curious about Gander Mountain Ad

    I received a Gander Mountain flyer in the mail yesterday, and something really caught my eye. An ad for a Glock 23 with a short description under the picture. Right below it, in very small writing it reads: "Sorry, due to local ordinances, handguns are not available in Madison, WI."...
