    Majority of Americans Oppose More Gun Control

    Maybe we're not voices crying out in the wilderness. Maybe Americans get it despite the filter of the MSM. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- A recent Zogby International poll question conducted for Associated Television News found that 66% of the American voting public in a recent...

    Shortened the barrel on My High Standard Pump

    I've had a High Standard pump for about 40 years and never really used it. I finally got fed up with seeing it in the back of the safe and decided to make it a HD shotgun for our vacation place in SC. So I used a tubing/pipe cutter and shortened the barrel to 18" and took about 3/4" off the...

    The Swiss and Guns

    My wife and I were in line to go to a gun show here in NoVA Friday afternoon and a woman in front of us looks out of place - kind of prissy - more like a librarian than a gun moll (not that my wife is the gun moll type, either.) Anyway this guy joins her and after a while she turns to us and...

    My Indoor Range Went Lead-Free

    They insist that the EPA or OSHA is soon going to force all ranges to allow only lead-free ammo and they're just making the changeover on their own terms before being ordered to. I can't believe they did this to make money, because they're losing a ton of business. About 30% of their business...

    Is Howard Dean dumb, or what?

    I saw where Dean is giving a speech in south FL, and calls Iraqi PM "an anti Semite." Now I understand Dean's trying to pander to Jewish doners by highlighting al Maliki's refusal to condemn Hezbolla, but doesn't he know that Arabs are Semites? So al Maliki is a self-hater? How'd this idiot...

    Colt Revolvers

    I'm pretty new to revolvers. Although I've owned a Detective Special for many years, since my interest in firearms became an obsession six months ago I've focused mainly on autoloaders. Now I want a revolver for home defense and am thinking something in .357/.38 with a 4" barrel. (I already...

    The Word From a Couple of Young Marines

    I dropped by Walmart Friday evening to pick up some ammo and a couple of young guys were at the counter - one of them wanted to buy a varmint rifle. We started chatting and they mentioned being stationed in NC. I asked where and they said LeJune, and that they were both just recently back from...

    "New" S&W 620?

    I looked at a Smith 620 today at my local gun shop/range and noticed some powder burn/residue around the breech end of the barrel. Is this normal in a new S&W? Does this come from firing a test round at the factory?

    Opinions on H&K P2000?

    My wife wants a 9mm pistol that works for lefties (handedness, not politics). I looked at the H&K P2000 and P2000SK. Anyone here have opinions on these? Your guidance will be appreciated.

    Removing High Standard Barrel

    I went to clean and oil an old High Standard 12 Ga Flite King that I got back in 1970 and never used. I was able to take it down pretty much all the way, but couldn't figure out how the barrel was fitted. It's certainly not like my Rem 870. Anyone know? I'd appreciate any advice.
