I live in Michigan and am looking for an all around hunting rifle. I will be hunting deer at first but eventually (assuming the permit process goes well) will be able to hunt black bear and elk. The distances aren't generally going to be over 100 yards, a 200 yard shot will probably be the...

Having done a little bit of research, I'm thinking about carrying 147 grain ammunition in my G19 for self defense purposes. I'm probably going with federal HST. Does anyone know of a good fmj round to practice with that would shoot to the same point of aim as this loading? Also if anyone has any...

Hello. This weekend I'm looking to buy a pistol. I want something that can be carried but if its a bit large or uncomfortable that's fine. I'm looking at the G19 4th gen, which I haven't held yet, the G17 4th gen and the M&P shield in 9mm. I've shot both the G17 and 19 in 3rd gen quite a bit but...

I read "somewhere" before (don't remember where) that it is not legal to have a gun that is orange. I know some after market accessories for Glock's are orange (magazine base plates, and mags, some others) and I've seen pictures of orange guns online (not 100% sure whether or not they were for...

Is there a site or source of info I could use to find objective numbers of the most sales of handguns by caliber? Is there a way to research data seeing what caliber is the best seller year by year? Any information or insight into this would be greatly appreciated.

I apologize if this has been posted before. I also apologize if this is in the wrong forum, please feel free to move it accordingly. Today I saw an interesting post from the GOA twitter account. (tweet led to this link...

Hello. I'm thinking of picking up an M&P 45 and was curious as to whether or not any of you own both. If so how big of a difference between the pair is there when it comes to concealing and carrying? Also is there a big difference between the two in recoil? Thanks, Mike

Aside from online that is. Whenever I go to a gunshow all I see are new pistols/revolvers, or Mosin Nagant's/PA-64's. I never see any say model 27's or 19's or anything like that. As far as I know you can't sell handguns at pawn shops in Michigan (at the very least I've never seen one at a pawn...

Hello. I have quite few questions regarding NFA questions that are probably noobish, but I hope someone can help me with them regardless. 1. I see a lot of videos on youtube of people firing full auto Glock 9mm's. I'm guessing these aren't all G18's (I heard there are like a dozen or less in...

Hello. Recently I've been contemplating building a AR-15. Theres a lot of information out there, so much so that it seems to be a daunting task to sift through it. I have a few questions that I was hoping you fine ladies and gentlemen could help me with. First off, the purpose would be for HD...

This is a still frame from the tv show "The Wire". It's a great show that features a wide variety of firearms. However I am clueless as to what this particular model is, so any insight would be greatly appreciated (I'm working on the "The Wire" page on imfdb.org and want to be as acurate as...

Are they only available directly from the manufacturer or are they sold by third parties (ie budsgunshop.com, etc)?

Hello. If this isn't the proper forum please move accordingly. Basically I was wondering how difficult it would be to have someone make a convertible cylinder for a Ruger Redhawk 45 lc to allow it to shoot .45 acp as well. I know they have this going for the blackhawk, but I would prefer a...

Hello. I was thinking earlier that I don't see too many revolvers with a black finish. The ones I can think of are S&W 442, Ruger Blackhawk's and the S&W 329 and Nightguard series. Beyond that what is out there? I just really like the color on a revolver so would like to know what is available...

Has there always been so many people who seem to be paranoid and fearful when it comes to firearms? As long as I've been alive I've known there were a good number of people who had this attitude. But has it always been like this? Kind of curious since I saw this advertisement today And...

I'm mostly looking for an HD type weapon, but I might... only might... also carry it. I'm considering a mossberg 500, a Saiga 223 or probably some kind of M&P (9 or 40). I'll only be able to buy one firearm for a while so I want to make sure I make the right choice. Each has their advantages...

Hello. I have a two year old and I'm sure it's not a surprise to say that she likes to get into things. I am currently considering purchasing a new shotgun or pistol but would like to have ready access to it for HD purposes. Does anyone have any suggestions as to a good location to keep a pistol...

Hello. I'm looking at the Colt 1991 series (in particular the commander length 04091U) and had a few questions I was hoping you fine people might be able to help me with. It seems to me from what I've read that the 1991 series is more of a "budget" model (hah, a 800$ budget model) pistol than...

Hello. I'm thinking of picking up a 1911 sometime next year and am interested in one with the following features. Commander Length (4.25, not 4") with some kind of black finish, or parkerized whatever. Also must be made in America. Does anyone know of a specific 1911 that fits this description...

Hello. I recently looked at a J-Frame at gander mountain that had some Crimson Trace (CT) grips on it. Now I don't really want CT grips but they were actually large enough for me to get what I consider to be a comfortable grip on the gun. Do any of you fine people know of any specific...
