    Metallic Cartridge Reloading

    Searching for this book, the most 2 recent versions, 1996 and 2001, are selling used for $70+ According to this thread it's a highly recommended book to read. I'm not a big fan of spending that much money on paperback books, so is there anything else out there that is similar to this in...

    Red Brush Rifle Range, Newburgh, Indiana

    Are there any THR members that are a member with this gun range? I can't get in touch with the VP and I do not know anybody that is a member here. Been trying to join for 6 months. It'd be so much easier if I didn't have to work during their once a month meetings.

    Good news for Indiana

    Yesterday, Governor Mitch Daniels signed HEA 1065 Not long after one of the Houses passed it, a Portage man had went out to his vehicle, got a shotgun, and shot up his work. This incident caused the anti's to come out of the woodwork to try and get Daniels to veto it, but the 2nd Amendment...

    A few questions regarding ammo

    First let me say I'm entirely new to shotguns, I just bought my first one a few days ago. So bear with me. I just got an 870 Marine Magnum. All I've been able to find on the gun and in the booklet was it can shoot 2 3/4" and 3" ammo. Can I shoot steel shot out of this? A friend was...

    Question about 1911 made in 1916

    Somewhat local shop is selling: Colt 1911 .45acp Gov US Property been Parkerized ***MADE 1916*** 999.00 Will the parkerization (this word even exist?) kill the value of it or for that matter the looks? I haven't seen it, just found the ad for it. I really want a 1911 made pre 1920 for...

    Local newspaper gun poll

    Here in Indiana, there's a bill floating around that will allow Concealed Carry Permit holders to carry in State buildings. The local newspaper is taking a poll on whether fellow Hoosiers should be allowed to do this. Right now, the poll is against it. 71% say no. How about we sway the...

    AR/AK mag prices

    What's going on here? I go to a local gun show and gun shop and AR mags have jumped to between $25 and $30 a piece for 30 rounders. AK mags are going for practically the same thing. I think I missed the memo on rising mag costs. It's like the AWBII has reached the President and is getting...

    Gander Mountain questions

    Well, first off, I've only been to 1 Gander Mountain ever and I was there long enough to grab up a double rifle case and head out. Didn't have time to browse. Seemed like a decent place. Anyway, here's the questions: 1. Do they sell handguns or just long guns? 2. Do they have ammo as...

    Say hello to my big friend

    I finally got to pick her up this past Thursday. Had to work everyday since so I haven't shot her yet. But here's my newest addition. Sorry if pics turn out bad.....not the greatest photographer. Barrett M99A1 (couldn't afford an 82A1)

    Question about Tracer rounds

    I've been told by a co-worker that shooting tracers will damage your barrel a helluva lot faster than shooting regular ammo. But after seeing a few videos and pics of tracers being shot....it looks as though they don't ignite, or whatever they do, until they leave the barrel. This leaves me...

    MP5/10 magazines

    Does anybody happen to know how much the 10mm MP5 magazines cost? I keep getting airsoft crap when I try to google it. I was thinking about getting one from Vector Arms, but if I can't find any magazines for it that aren't outrageously priced, then I probably won't get one.

    Smoke Grenade question

    I was at a gun show a couple weeks ago and saw what looked to be a mil surp smoke grenade. This is the only one I've ever seen anywhere. I almost bought it just because, but I couldn't get myself to pay $75 for something I have little information on. I'm assuming there are no legalities for...

    New to me AR-10

    So I finally found what I thought was a good deal on an AR-10. It's an Armalite AR-10T with the green stock and forearm. Came with a 6-24x50 Simmons scope. No box. Factory 10 round magazine. No covers for the scope. Probably could have gotten better, but other than the green color it's...

    AR series question

    First I apologize for not knowing my gun parts very well, so you might not know what I'm talking about. In a nutshell, I'm wanting an AR-10 to put a bipod and scope on for some long distance shooting. I've never put a bipod on a rifle....actually I only own a couple rifles so this is all...

    SA 1911 problems.....Part II

    I made a thread a few weeks ago about my new SA 1911 not going into full battery. After disassembling it and lubing the slide as Xavier had suggested I tried hand cycling rounds through it to see if it helped any. It didn't. Here's some pics of what it's doing. Sorry they're not of the...

    Milsurp rifles questions (probably beating a dead horse)

    Starting at the beginning of next year, I'm wanting to start on a mil surp collection, so I've got a couple questions for you milsurp junkies. I don't think I'm going to go the C&R route yet, it just depends on how deep I end up getting into this. Ok, I think I'm finally coming around to the...

    Please tell me it's just because it's new.

    Well, in all honesty, I bought a SA 1911 about a month ago and finally got to shoot her Saturday morning. Range report....the trigger is a little rough. Feels like it's gonna cut your fingers. With both magazines loaded with the full 7 rounds, the first 2 rounds wouldn't not load all the...
