I can understand that. Yet the most common I see are a 5 MOA.. Thank you, but no thank you. I did find a couple 1 MOA and a 0.5 MOA, either would be good on my crossbow,I think. If memory serves, at 50 yards, the dots would be 0.5 inch and 0.25 inch respectively. I have not done the math for dot...

I'd have to say "Bushnell". Simply because that is the only brand scope I've ever possessed. I don't have any idea what model it was. I haven't had that .22 for going on 30 - 35 years now. I remember it had a 1 inch tube, not a 7/8 inch. EDIT: Thinking about it, I may have had a 7/8 inch tube...

Having never used or looked through a red or green dot sight, I have a question: Is the dot translucent or opaque?

I'll second this. (A P08 in .45 ACP would be acceptable in my book, as well.)

LLama? I think they made revolvers as well as the 1911 type pistol, for a while. Star? I know they made revolvers. Those are the only two Spanish makers I can think of at the moment. My first thought was Rossi, but they are in Brazil.

I got a late start. I think I was 2 (maybe 3) when I discovered my pop's 'GUN DIGEST' for the first time, and went "OOOohhhhh!!!!" pointing at the ones I liked. Strangely enough, all traditional things, like rolling blocks, lever actions, slide actions, single action revolvers, the 1911, and...

And a supply of "Cowboy Action" cartridges loaded with black powder. (or load your own with black powder). A Conversion cylinder does not make it safe to use modern smokeless powder cartridges in a BP frame.

I thought Ol' Ben and his boys carried and used a SSA along with a Winchester '73 levergun. (or maybe they had a '94, like 'The Rifleman' did?) I remember the Cartwright's putting metallic cartridges in their revolvers, on the rare occasions they missed a lot, and had to reload. Seems like they...

With the wood patchbox, no buttplate, cheek piece, sling swivels, and single brass barrel band at the muzzle, it isn't any production gun I know of. Good luck on finding out who made it, and when. :) Do you have a ramrod for it? What caliber? Does it say "BLACK POWDER ONLY" on the barrel? (If...

I'll stick with "real" black powder, thank you, very much. :) Smokeless powders and muzzleloaders don't play well together. More than one video on you Tube where some ... I won't insult the "humans", "people", or "morons" by claiming those in the videos are among their number ... intentionally...

The key word being "variant". A lot of differences (internal, to include components and machining, and external) between the M-16 issued in say 1969 to an M-4 issued in 2019, and the years in-between, for that matter. The M-16 I was issued in 1975, was not a "flat top" or have collapsible or...

I use a brush in my compact 1911's barrel if it needs it. For my muzzle loaders, I just pump soapy water in and out, patches to dry, and a mop to apply a wee bit of lube or oil to prevent rust in the bore. Brushes do not like to change directions in a barrel. I am too "lazy" (or maybe "too...

"It is LIKELY there are police officers out there..." would be more accurate. I would not be surprised if 9.9 out of 10 "average" police officers these days would know the differences. Most, if not all, of the police officers who served in the military when the M-16 was the standard issue...

There is a local pawnshop here that does the background checks for Black Powder, and even air guns and spring operated BB guns. If it fires a projectile (including a paint ball) out of a barrel, they do a background check. I've never seen a blowgun in there, but I would not be surprised if they...

For pistol, depending on caliber, either FFFg (3F) for .36 and under. For .44/.45 you can use either FFFg (3F) or FFg (2F). For rifles, FFg (2F) or Fg (F1F), again, depending on caliber. The .45's and larger, use the Fg (1F) For something like the .38-55 and smaller, use FFg (2F) If you use...

The direct evidence, such as photographs, and contemporary reports, that "back in the day" troopers and such reloaded by changing out the cylinders of their revolver may be lacking.. However, ancillary and circumstantial evidence suggests they did. There are belt pouches, (if you will ... if you...

Tool. Without proper and extensive training, (and even then) a knife makes for a mighty poor "weapon" choice. Even if you survive the situation that you used the knife in, you may not survive the court case after.

A Stanley Box Cutter, if I have it with me, and if there is a blade in it. If not, then I ask what they need cut, and cut it for them. (As long as it is not some part of them, a part of another "person", or a alive critter, or whatever it is, is not a suitable thing to the using a knife on.)
