    Your SA-35 Experiences?

    I got mine lightly used (less than 300 rounds) and after ~500 rounds from me (all 124gr bulk ammo) without any failures, I opted for a B H Spring solutions enhancement, money well spent IMHO. This is my first Hi-Power, and I'm pleased with it after the B H Spring Solutions smithing with a...

    Instead of striker fired 9mm

    I would add the Browning Hi-Power and its clones, not the least of which if the Springfield SA-35.

    the CZ 75 in the hand, or the SA-35 in the bush?

    I have both. The Sa-35 out of the box was uninspiring, off it went to B H Spring Solutions and it is now how it should be, I'm pleased. The CZ 75 D Compact PCR is fine as it is, following about 500 - 600 rounds. The trigger is a bit notchy, I wish it were a bit more fluid. If it doesn't...

    What do you think about this Remington 700 26" for sale?

    The only thing I can add is when you settle on one given loaded cartridge, if store bought rather then a reload, buy as much as you can of the same lot, as variances do occur between that will affect accuracy and obviously point of aim/impact. This holds true for .308 target ammo and especially...

    Have gun people stopped buying?

    Ditto, and it doesn't help after 33 years of a company furnishing your gear (which was all left behind at retirement) to suddenly being retired but still a strongly visual individual. Fortunately, I am happy with older manual focus lenses, the digital camera bodies, aint cheap, though. Oh, at...

    Questions about action lengths: long action, short action, etc.

    WOW, talk about a brain fart! I've been a bit preoccupied lately with getting my Rem Mdl Seven rebarrelled that I completely forgot the Bergara B-14 that came to me last fall, in the same 6.5 Creedmoor that is to be the new barrel for the Mdl Seven. So, it seems I have two Bolt action...

    Questions about action lengths: long action, short action, etc.

    Action Length pertains typically to Center Fire Cartridges, .22LR rimfire will only be a universal length, unless .22 Rimfire Magnum is considered as well. I'll restate what seems to already been said, only worded a bit different ; Absolutely, there are long and short action semi's, i.e., the...

    another self-defense shooter is cleared

    At least in Texas, I can't fairly comment on Colorado as I have never resided there, when someone is charged, the case advances to a grand jury which considers all the evidence and it is their collective decision whether to return a true bill and proceed with prosecuting a trial or no bill and...

    Lightweight Rifle suggestions

    Another up vote for Christensen Arms, although I still prefer my Rem Seven. My laminate stock Rem Seven .308 (20" barrel) is currently at a smith being refit with a takeoff Christensen Arms 22" (+ fitted Brake) 6.5 Creedmoor barrel and a Timney trigger. I recently added a Bergara B-14 in 6.5 CM...

    Rem M7 "Custom"...done finally.

    Chuck, Seriously cool. The Turkey is conspicuously clean, no splatters? However, I am now officially a glow in the dark shade of green (envy). My loving bride and I will be departing the Republic of Texas after she retires later this year, I took an early out at my earliest possibility 13...

    Rem M7 "Custom"...done finally.

    Excellent 3 shot groups, what distance? It certainly looks like that dog will hunt. Viva la Rem Seven. Chuck, you had we with, "I did in parts shooting from my back deck." Color me green with envy! EDIT: I like the tripod set-up with the bag as a cradle rather than a clamp on the tripod...

    The word Cartridge and Bullet.

    It's actually cartridges, and wouldn't ammo have fewer letters than rounds?

    The word Cartridge and Bullet.

    A cartridge is a loaded shell with a bullet seated in place, it there to hold the powder in until the primer is struck so as to send it. As I learned long ago, words matter and clarity counts. Choose your words carefully. When someone says they're out of bullets, they're likely reciting a line...

    Please contact the NRA about Mr. LaPierre

    I participated in NRA sanctioned small bore rifle matches and firearm education at summer camps at ages 10 & 11, well over half s century ago. That was my introduction to the NRA. ~28 years ago I joined the NRA on an annual basis and upgraded to a Life membership 26 years ago. 18 years ago I...

    What if the background check was removed permanently?

    HIPPA regulations preclude an automatic linking of psychiatric issues with the BATF, at least that is my understanding of HIPPA. Background checks offer no indication of firearm proficiency. I see it as a self-perpetuating institution. I was looking at my bookshelf this evening and noted...

    another self-defense shooter is cleared

    In this after-the-fact, slowed-down, analytical time line, you make perfect sense and an excellent case. In the real time, real life scenario of the victim making sufficient contact with the shooter to knock-off his (the shooter's) glasses, and then stepping back to engage in the provocative...

    Looks like another run on supplies!

    Bingo!! On Monday I searched for small rifle primers for the first time in 6 - 8 months. I had to refresh my order screen about a dozen times and in doing so my order went from 2K primers to 4K, but woo-hoo, 4K small rifle primers are due to arrive tomorrow afternoon. I have a 2K 77gr .223...

    What Possesses People???

    Uncertainty of supply chain and "a bird in the hand" as in, its here and immediate. Used powder and hand loaded ammo, . . . simply no, never. I just ordered the first small rifle primers I've seen since early 2020, $75/thou. Who knows how long they will remain available or if again...
