    My Perfect General Purpose Rifles Ramblings (Long)

    While my choice is not for everyone it works for me. It started life as an Argintene Mauser in 30-06. It now has Lyman irons plus a Bushnell 2-6 pistol scope forward mounted. The barrel is 19" and the overall length is 39". She weighs 8lbs 0oz. and her Timney trigger breaks clean at 4...

    Ultimate thread on cleaners

    I generally spray the parts with hoppes elite, let soak for 10-15min. then scrub with nylon brush. Spray with some type of action blaster (tetra's at the moment). Let air dry. Use the same Hoppes Elite for the barrel (I'm not a 1000yd shooter, this works well enough for me)...

    primer tube loader

    vibra-prime, that's the one. Is it strickly hand held or can you mount it to a bench and let it run while doing something else? I hate picking up primers with pick-up tubes, but I don't want to waste my money either. Not sure If I'd be happy with this or should I just save up and by...

    Switching from Glock to Sig

    I went the other way. Use to carry a SIG 220, but switched to a G 22. I considered reliability the same with both. Durability went to the Glock, my gun is exposed to the elements, is carried openly and gets banged against things at times. SIG's finish will look like h*ll in a couple...

    primer tube loader

    Has anyone tried the primer tube loader from Frankford Arsenal? How well does it work, is it bench mountable? Problems, tips techniques?

    Less lethal or lethal weapons more effective?

    Just gotta ask, why are we so worried about a criminals well being? Is your debate partner taking the stance that the criminal has more of a right to live than you or I do? As far as I'm concerned, when someone threatens or initiates violence, then all bets are off and they forfeit...

    Most annoying Gun Myths

    Glock 7's are made to defeat metal detectors (no such thing), Podbyran? (again, no such thing) is the most powerful handgun made. That a Desert Eagle is a good carry gun. Basically anything that comes out of a movie or video game that is taken as the truth / real training...

    Who makes a CONCEALABLE OWB kydex holster besides fits?

    might try the Galco Matrix. I have 1 for my SIG220 with front and rear snap on loops that conceals well. It's not quite as fast as other kydex holsters I own though.

    LEO asked to pick the gun he wants to use: what should he pick?

    Hey, if the're paying the bill how about a SIG 210 or H&K P7. If I didn't have to pay for it you bet I'd go for top shelf! :D

    spare mags owb, 1 or 2?

    +1 1911user. If I'm carrying a double stack I carry a surefire 6P next to my spare mag. If I'm carrying a single stack, sometimes I'll carry 2 mags, sometimes I'll carry 1 + the light. Just depends what I'm doing, where I'm going and how I feel that day. YMMV

    handsfree pistol reloading belt??

    You guys realise by reloading in this manner you will be sweeping your muzzle all over the place instead of keeping it down range. It is also much quicker to shover a small object into a larger object (that is at least at the edge of your vision) than placing a larger object over a smaller one...

    rifle or shotgun for HD?

    Sorry I've been away for a while (vacation). thanks for all the responses so far. I Have been using the SG for the past 8 years or so (when I did have kids in the house) and it has served me well. I also have extensive experience with the rifle (thanks uncle sam, plus a lot of...

    rifle or shotgun for HD?

    Tyesai, I started this post with the statment that overpenetration wasn't an issue in my situation. My situation as stated is home defence with the possibility of having to check around my house. If you don't think this situation is realistic then what type of H.D. do you think is? I...

    New Glock22, have a cpl questions

    I prefer 155-165gr. premium H.P.'s. Speer Gold Dots at the moment. Don't even care to try the "extreme shock". I've never heard anything about them except marketing hype. As for night sights, all those listed above are very good. Personal preference had me install Heine slant pro...

    rifle or shotgun for HD?

    OK, the general feel is for the shotty. But why choose it over the rifle? What advantages and or disadvantages does it have over the rifle? As I said I already have both (and practice with both) so cost and ease of learning are not an issue. Just what are the tactical...

    rifle or shotgun for HD?

    I live in a rural setting, over penetration is not a concern. Wife and myself only at home. Handguns are the primary HD guns; 1 for me (with light attached plus seperate bright light), another gun for the lady of the house. The long gun is for barracade situations, when having to check...

    Hard to use handguns

    propriatary guns mostly include any with a manual safety (if it is carried ON SAFE). Modifications? I suppose this would include any addition of a safety to a gun that normally doesn't come with one. i.e. muribato revolver safety (don't know it it is still offered), cominolli safety for...

    Life imitating art?

    saw the movie, agree not very good. As to the mode of carry for a handgun? I think I'll stick to more normal modes. You have to have more flexability to rotate your hand over your sholder as apposed to your hip; you will muzzle flash everyone behind and above you when you draw; you...

    AR15 Optics Question

    prefer the EOtech myself, faster, cheaper, didn't have to buy a seperate mount that tends to loosen.
