    CMMG Bargain bin %

    So I'm going to jump in to the AR15 market here in about a month, and was wondering what the concensus of the CMMG Bargain bin rifle was? I carried an M16 over in the sandbox, and want to get back in to shooting the platfrom again. Also wondering suggestions on accurate iron sights/BUIS for...

    hearing protection

    Ok, this is going to sound odd, and maybe useless. But when I was in active duty in Afghanistan I brought along these ear bud looking things I bought state side at a gun shop. They were "reactive" in a sense. Somehow the sudden increase in pressure from close small arms fire, or artillery...

    Auto-ordnance 1911's?

    So what's the low down on Auto-Ordnance 1911's? They seem pretty cheap, and I've heard their M1Carbines are good rifles. However I pretty much stick to rifles usually but I've always enjoyed my friends original issue 1911. Just don't want to plop down 1,200 on a pistol, and these prices seem...

    Break down/camping rifles?

    Just wondering what my options are on break down rifles? I do a lot of tent camping, mostly on private land. On my dad's land along the river there are some coyotes that are getting pretty pesky, they've seemingly grown some huge balls while I served my time in the Army. A nice reliable...

    Mini-30

    So I'm thinking about a mini-30. To be honest I've never even picked one up. But I like the look, and the action. I've heard they weren't all that accurate, has that been rectified? I don't need ridiculous accurace, as I don't plan on scoping it. Heck, if I need a tack driver I'll build...

    Shotgun prices/differences?

    So this was the first time I've been out shooting with my dad since I got back from Afghanistan, and we were just shooting clay pigeons. But I got to thinking, what makes a shotgun more expensive than another shotgun? They are pretty simple firearms. I have a 60's Remington 20 Gauge I...

    Military Weapon Designations?

    Even after the 5 years of active airborne infantry duty I served(Afghanistan), I never really understood the military designations for weapons. Take the M-16 for example, we all know it as the rifle most of us carried since the sixties. Different varients of course, my SDM rifle was an...

    Looking for a bolt gun

    So I'm looking for a budgetish bolt action rifle. But I have a few stipulations of course ;) 1. Lefty. I'm right handed but left eye dominant. Nothing was more annoying when I was still active in the army(well, dealing with guns at least) than seeing the brass cross my face, it was...

    Deer..seses.

    Anyway I've shot tons of guns, mostly rifles admitidly, a decent amount of pistols, and own a good shot gun. I'm interested in hunting deer this year as season is comming up, but the big thing here is in Illinois it's shotgun or bow. Don't own a Bow, and would rather shoot something I'm...

    Ria 1911

    I've been looking for an online distributor for an RIA 1911 copy. I know they're not FANTASTIC, but I also don't see the point of me dropping 1,000 dollars on one. I love shooting, but it's a random thing, I don't dedicate tons of time to it. I want a Decent pistol that I can enjoy shooting and...

    Inherited a revolver

    So I recently inherited a .22 rimfire revolver from my dad along with an old Marlin 60 .22 rifle. He doesn't shoot anymore and knew I owned a few guns and thought I'd put them to better use. I know about the marlin, and have put tons of ammo through it in the past. However, I have no clue...

    AR15, such a rare topic eh?

    Anyway, I'm harboring the notion of purchasing an AR15 after I plop down the cash for my Camaro. So what is the difference in felt recoil between the .223 and .308? I'm wanting the 20" I believe. Good choice? What type of flashhider/muzzle brake options do I have? Which would relieve...

    Wanting a Plinker

    I'm wanting a Plinker of sorts, without the .22 lead. I already have a very nice, old Remington that suites that bill. Basicly what I want is accurate as possible at the furthest distance possible. But here's the catch. I don't want a .22, and I don't want something that the recoil is...
