    Browning customer service

    The firing pin is something so minor that they could have offered to just send you out the part. I know of a couple of people who had minor issues they could have fixed themselves get asinine quotes from browning. They didn't even want to send the whole gun back, just get a small part and do it...

    Who likes AK type rifles?

    The AK can be accuratized. The M76 and its 54r brother are proof. It does require hardening the receiver and trunnion to remove excess whip.

    Biden admin takes aim at hunters in latest regulation

    I’m going to be that guy and say some city slicker shooting a deer once isn’t dumping lead like cleetus is in that hill that’s also in the national forest.

    Gun Shop Etiquette

    God, can you imagine if they had loaded up bubba's nuclear bomb handloads and blown the gun up? That's some serious lack of foresight.

    Bullpup as home defense rifle?

    And it’s not like a Democrat DA wouldn’t send you to prison for beating them with a bat, or you still losing a civil suit. Like the fuddlore with reloads and self defense I want to see these civil suit and felony prison time result statistics.

    Still Another Email Sale

    For the love of god if you're thinking about this as your first AR-15 please reconsider. Bear Creek is great if you've built an AR-15. If you're handy the major small issues they have like misaligned gas blocks, or a loose hand guard, can be easily fixed. Yes they have a great warranty, and...

    If you started your gun journey over...

    I really beat myself up for missing a relatively el cheapo full auto fnc fire control back in ‘91. I’ve never bought el cheapo guns or optics but I did buy a number of medium priced ones I’d inevitably replace with a higher/high end one. I guess I’d go straight to high end optics from the get go.

    What the crap? (Post Gun Show Rant)

    Weirdly enough where I'm at, it's the last 20 years of rock/metal station that's the most 2A advertisement friendly. Three gun stores regularly have advertisements and a couple of regular gun shows pay for time on the station.

    AR-10 optic suggestions

    I recommend the Bushnell elite tactical xrs3. It's right in the middle of your budget. Great glass, great magnification range if you want to have the option of extended magnification, while looking good at 6x power. I do not own one, but I was introduced to it on a friend's ar-15, and have been...

    What the crap? (Post Gun Show Rant)

    I see gunshows more as a source of spare parts and magazines. I got a bubba'd to hell and back SKS from a pawnshop a couple of years back for a steal ($100). A couple of local gunshows let me get the original dust cover and magazine for a relatively fair price. I was able to inspect the...

    M1A inconsistent1

    The m1 garand and m1a both require some science and voodoo black magic to get very accurate.

    A reminder about online sales and the risk involved

    You've got fraud laws in the Hammurabi code, and even bits and pieces related to fraud in some of the pre-Hammurabi law texts they've found over the years. Scamming and fraud is ancient cave man stuff.

    The Building Safer Communities Act = Infringement

    OP A thing you should do anyway regardless of how this plays out is pulling your kid's credit report and making sure his social security number hasn't been compromised. More likely than not between this "law" your kid also has the unlucky pleasure of having a similar name and geographical...

    Uff da! Present price Romanian PSL

    I got mine when they were like $1000-$1200. I thought it was worth the price then. Accurate enough and can be pushed decently with hand loaded cartridges. I eventually bought a Belarusian 4-12 side rail scope for it, and I can definitely get it to group a bit better just cause I know what I’m...

    Cabela's and Gun Trade ins

    I do know with Sportsman’s Warehouse the math is even more murky. They will offer more if you trade to buy a gun sitting on the shelf. The murkiness comes from the fact they push that warranty program. Actuarial tables and what not come into play and if it’s something that’s known to get RMA’d a...

    List of more than 170 banned guns in Illinois could grow

    Illinois is a really good example of a state that needs to be busted up. Split off Chicago, Parkland and what not into their own state. It’d even be a win win for them with most of the house appropriation and two guaranteed for eternity dem senate seats.

    Turkish MKE 30-06 Ammo

    As a compromise I doubt the highly suspicious 8mm and this 30-06 was stored in the best conditions. I think everyone got spoiled by Russian surplus that was sealed in airtight containers and kept in death bunkers with some minimal hvac.

    Ever regretted going to a LGS?

    Yeah I’m at a loss here. They make themselves sound like the bad ass state of the art. Ammo prices on the shop area seem a little high. Transfer fee is definitely pricey, but this place really seems to push rentals and range time. Uhh a lot indoor ranges pass on bimetal jacket because those can...

    A modern 9mm levergun, yes you read this correctly

    I don’t know when/how fudd central command got the idea to beam out that wood will protect it from getting banned and makes it not a weapon of war.

    A modern 9mm levergun, yes you read this correctly

    I think the price point might hurt this. With that being said I’d like to get behind it via a rental first.
