While it hasn't gotten much attention, Mossberg just released a new model of the 590. It's called the 590S and can run the 1 3/4 Aguila mini shells in addition to 2 3/4 and 3 inch shells. You don't need to use a mini shell adaptor like the OPSol. The mini shells are a lot of fun and...

I'm looking for a new percussion muzzleloader shotgun. All I see advertised are the Pedersoli models that cost around $1,000. Anything less expensive being sold?

I'm looking to get an inexpensive in-line rifle like the T/C Impact SB or CVA Wolf but have a question about cleaning. The cleaning videos produced by T/C just mention cleaning the barrel and breech plug. In the CVA videos the good old boys tell you to also remove and clean the firing pin and...

I have a question about the differences between the 38 special and 357 mag K frames. Since the longer 357 case requires a longer cylinder, did they also lengthen the frame to accommodate the longer cylinder? If so did they then start making the 38 special models on the longer frame as well?

I want to buy a replica flintlock pistol. A British Navy Sea Service or a Dragoon pistol. I'll probably only shoot it once a year but just think they're cool. So far the only ones I have seen for sale are the Indian-built guns from places like Loyalist Arms and Veterans Arms. Does one of these...

I have a question about the firing pin block that was added to the Hi-Power around 1988 and appears on the late MKII models and the MKIII. I'm not really concerned about the impact on the trigger pull since Hi-Powers aren't known for having light triggers but I have read some old threads on gun...

Does anyone know what the difference is between the Winchester white box ammo and the version that comes in the red, white, and blue box? The white box is more expensive but I cannot find anything that explains the difference. Thanks

Has anyone tried the Weatherby Element shotgun? It is an inertia operated design. I don't want to spend Benelli money so I am looking at the lower priced inertia shotguns like the Element, Franchi Affinity, and the Stoeger M3000. I already own a gas semiautomatic and pump actions, so I am...

I'm thinking of getting a Kentucky flintlock pistol like the Pedersoli. It comes in .45, .50, and .54 caliber. I know that these Kentucky pistols are not super historically accurate but are representative of a general style of pistol. But does anyone know which caliber was the most common for...

While there are significant differences in the trigger function of the DAK and LEM their basic purpose is the same. They are DA pistols that do not have decockers, but still have triggers lighter than the old DAOs. The purpose was to reduce the potential for unintentional discharges from the...

I'm looking for an OWB polymer holster with a locking mechanism for my Glock 19. My first choice is one of the Safariland models with ALS (#6378 or 7378). The problem is that these locking holsters hang much lower on the belt than a typical pancake style holster. The bottom of the holster is...

Here is a video of the new Mora with full tang. Will retail for around $100 which seems too pricey to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LF2FbWOy6M

I am thinking of getting a polymer EAA Witness in 9mm. From what I’ve read Tanfoglio originally made the 9mm and 40 on a smaller frame and the 45acp and 10mm on a larger frame. A while back they started making all calibers on a universal large frame to simplify things and to allow conversions...

So CNN has been pushing a story all day saying two rocket launchers were turned in at an Los Angeles gun buy back. While they made it sound really scary, they were actually empty LAW rocket tubes. While I'm no expert, I know LAW rockets are one shot deals so having an empty tube isn't of much...

I'm looking to buy a bolt action rifle for casual 100 yard paper punching. I'm trying to decide between the Savage Axis XP and Savage 11 Trophy Hunter XP. The Savage 11 comes with the accutrigger and Nikon scope which is clearly a better setup than the Bushnell scope on the Axis, but the 11 also...

I have a m96 Swedish Mauser. I've noticed that the entire length of the brass cases are sooty after firing. I just noticed it last time I went to the range but cannot recall if it was always like this since I hadn't shot the rifle in a long time. Is dirty brass common? I assume this is because...

The only active FFL in the District of Columbia is closing. This means it will once again be impossible to buy a handgun despite the Supreme Court ruling. The owner says it is only temporary and he will move to a new location, but gave no specifics so it doesn't sound promising. This guy didn't...

I've been thinking about buying either the Springfield XDsc or the Glock 26 for concealed carry. The one thing that turns me off about the XD is the weight. The XDsc weighs 26 ounces while the Glock 26 is only 20 ounces. The XD subcompact weighs more than a full size Glock 17! The slide on the...

Does anyone have experience with the Redi-Lok system on some DeSantis holsters like the Chek-Mate and Facilitator? It's basically a retention device that engages when you put the gun in the holster. You push the release button with your thumb on the body side. This seems to answer one of the...

I read that Remington has discontinued the Spartan models made by Baikal in Russia. It appears the EAA will be selling them once again.
