I’ve been carrying my Sig 229 lately now due to the warm weather. It has the stainless slide. Last night I noticed tiny dots of what looks to my untrained eye like rust. These dots are small and all smaller that the head of a pin, but they look nasty. The past few days it has been pretty hot...

I know that this may be a dumb question, but, where are Springfield 1911’s made? Are they made in the U.S.? If so, are all models made here? Any help would be great. Thanks Fred

Having looked at both the eotech and the aimpoint, I have decided on the Aimpoint. I just need a little help choosing which model, magnification, and mounting method. It's going on a A3 CAR-15. Distance will be form a couple of yards (HD and competion) to maybe 200 yards, most being 25-100...

I got some .223 ammo from my fathers friend the other day. I noticed while shooting in that it seemed to be loaded really hot. So it got me thinking, this might really old stuff. Its head stamp is: 5.56 80.11 P S If any one has any info about these rounds I would be greatly...

I have 3 different AR’s. Two are Bushmasters, one is DPMS, and all 3 are different configurations. I’ve noticed that no matter what type of ammo I use, I have never had a failure to feed with only one mag. It’s an old Colt 30rd mag. So, it got me thinking, who makes the best mags? Also, any...

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg marines2jun02,0,7063350.story?coll=la-home-headlines :barf: This is ridiculous! Are we really going to throw our boys under the bus just to prove to the world that we are playing by the rules, even though no one else does? This kind of...

My wack-o friend at work and I were talking, and he got me thinking. Lets say, hypothetically, that a person had a couple of thousand rounds of ammo and maybe a gun or two that they wanted to put into “deep”, long term storage, maybe bury in a safe remote wooded location for a, just such an...

OK, so I’m finally going to give in to peer pressure. I’m going to mount an optic on my CAR15. I’ve always used open sights, but now I have my 20”XM15 that I shoot better. I think I shoot the XM better because of its improved sight radius, and full-length stock. I’m going to leave the XM...

I bought a bushmaster XM15 (20 inch bbl, standard stock) a couple of months ago and I’m experiencing a funny cycling issue. It only has about 500 rounds though it, but it seems to cycle very slowly. I’m used to shooting my CAR15, and it seems like I don’t even notice that it is cycling except...

I think that we should all go to some of these anti sites and post some dumb questions and a few rants. Lets use their dumb a$$ logic. Lets just bombard their chat rooms and email boxes to the point that they cant enjoy bashing us any more. And while were at it (evil grin), lets keep calling...

Anyone else out there prefer “alternative checkering”. Ever since I bought my Kimber Raptor, I just don’t like checkering any more. I just prefer the Raptors’ treatment or that found on the Ed Brown Kobras. To me, they are much more comfortable to shoot. They don’t chew up my hand like some...

Sig 229, 9mm stainless slide w/ night sights, new in the box, never fired with 2 13rd mags. I got it as part of a trade. I’m not sure I want to sell it, but I already have the exact same gun, and the funds from the sale could be used to fund other things. I’m torn. I really like the one that...

I was just at the gun shop and I saw a browning BAR (the hunting rifle, not the MG) in 30-06. the bore is clean, the chamber was checked and is “GO”. The wood stock is beat up, but not structurally damaged. It’s a little ugly, but the owner let me shoot it, and it’s a good shooter. He wants...

I was interested in posting a gun for sale, are there any special rules? Thanks, Fred

I was talking to one of my pro gun friends at work. Don’t worry, we were at lunch. We were talking about how we both have Win mod 94’s in 30-30 handed down form our dads. Then we naturally just started talking about lever actions. You know which ones we would like, what we would like to see...

Why is it that almost everyone who doesn’t like HK’s drags out the same old tired “they are over priced…wah wah wah” argument? The point is that God forbid you have to use it to defend your life, or the lives of family or friends, are you really going to care about the extra hundred or two...

Has anyone see, handled, fired or currently own one of these? They say that they are Serbian M48 but are made origional German tooling so they ARE mMauser K98's... and they sell for $300-500. This sounds a bit too good to be true. I would love a mauser, and for about $300, if they are...

It wasn't on any calendar that I could find, but to day seems to be AR bashing day. I've seen more AR bashing to day than I ever seen here before. To set the record straight a lot of the "problems" with the AR/M16, although they were fixed decades ago, resulted from problems (real or...

I know next to nothing about the hipowers, but have heard good things. The one that I have handled felt very nice and points well (gee go figure, a JB design feeling and pointing well, and all while looking good... Who'da thunk it), but having not shot one I am slightly skeptical. Also having...
