Alright, poured some number 9 down into the little crack between my firing pin and the part of the slide it's embedded in. If that doesn't help, I'll cave and get some punches to remove the roll pins. Definitely appreciate the experience-driven advice you folks have shared, with older guns I...

Thanks a bunch for the suggestions, never used brake cleaner or a full spirit soak on a gun, will they harm the finish?

Howdy folks. One of the only guns I've had the pleasure of receiving for free was a gorgeous .22lr High Standard Sport King. Every shot I've got out of it has rivalled my rifles in accuracy and it's a very pretty and well-weighted shooter, with a field strip so easy it makes a ruger mk 4 look...

Thanks for your perspective. I should clarify I mean "king" in the sense of popularity and ubiquity moreso than being the best of the best. I think highly of them but I like my fullsize calibers too. I suppose it is a testament to the potential of the platform that they survived their initial...

As a relative youngun who's never lived in a world where ARs weren't king, were they seen as any different from how they are now when they were a bit more novel? Everyone's heard tales of the military's internal debates on their merits but how did the civvie landscape take to them in your memory?

Come on, don't leave us hanging. SBR? AOW? DD? Suppressor?

Bought a used but perfect condition Bianchi X15 holster for my High Power, loving it so far, I've always wanted a vertical shoulder holster after being disappointed with my horizontal model's lack of concealability and tendency to whack my gun into my side if I do anything other than walk slowly...

"Possess"? Ouch, here in Washington we got hit with a 10-round buying and selling ban but I can perfectly legally ship in a crate of STANAGs from Idaho. I feel like when states go this hardline they're asking for total noncompliance, I'd bet over half of the people who own these suckers in NM...

Lots of reasons to make distinctions, but the only reason these distinctions cause arguments is when they're used to make general decisions regarding entire classes of firearms. I don't think a single person argued about the difference between a rifle and a short-barreled rifle until the latter...

Howdy, lived half my life in Washington state and the other half in Florida, been into firearms since I learned what one was, and go camping or shooting whenever I've got the time. I'm here to learn even more and keep myself updated on new designs, discoveries, and what have you, and maybe share...
