    Finally bought my first NFA items.

    I haven't looked at the Obsidian but do read the details on the rating; barrel length, pressures, etc. It may be fine (don't know) on a 22in with Trapdoor loads but NOT fine on a 16in barrel shooting Buffalo Bore through it. Ran into that with others in the past, need some barrel length to get...

    Need help Tokarev-33 owners!

    The HP bullets may be too short for the magazine and causing your issue. If it runs fine with ball ammo, then you could look at putting a spacer in the rear of the magazine if you are determined to shoot HP out of it. May also want to check your spring tension and a few other magazines to see...

    .45 ACP Brass Primer Sorter

    Neat! Very good idea. Much better than my current method of putting them into a tray and scanning with a magnifying glass.

    picking up brass, getting older, maybe wiser?

    I have a little net which goes over my hand. Was $15 or so and works pretty well.

    Lipsey special edition J frame in 38 and 32mag

    Lipsey's runs aren't like a 365, they tend to only make so many of a model. Unlike Sig who will keep cranking out a model. Now, it will be interesting to see if S&W makes something like this down the road, or a similar version. Hard to say, I'm not sure what sort of agreement they have...

    Lipsey special edition J frame in 38 and 32mag

    $660 is a smoking deal! I got the 32 version for $730 (plus tax) and was happy with that. Still waiting my 2 weeks so don't have it in hand yet..........

    Gun safe makeover questions

    The rifle rods were worth it for me. Sometimes use socks (not on the rifles) but not loving them.

    I don't want a Sig P365. Tell me why I'm wrong or offer options.

    The new Ultra Carry j frame collaboration between Lipsey and S&W impresses me. Can get it in 32mag if you want something less common, but plenty of holsters for J frames out there. I am interested by the FN Reflex as it has an internal hammer rather than a striker. Same small platform with...

    Hatsan "twang"

    It could be normal for a "springer". Do you have other buddies who have a springer you could shoot? May let you know if it is sounding normal or not. They do make some noise. Can be tuned to reduce it some (if it isn't broken as mentioned above, but given its age I would not expect that)...

    Instructor Businesses: New Federal Report Required in 2024

    Not familiar with this and am not a business guy, so please excuse my ignorance. Is this an instructor/firearms thing or a thing aimed at LLC's and corporations, regardless of their type of business?

    Zanotti safe? Good/bad?

    I have looked at them in the past but never bought one. Buddy and I were talking and I don't think either of us would buy a gun "safe" again. If I did, it would be the take down type like you are looking at. There are a few other makers which have a design like that also if you opt to go that...

    New Blue Python BROKE! ugghh

    That is a huge bummer. Hopefully, they make it right FAST and you can enjoy it when it comes back. Give it some time for the disappointment and anger to fade. I have had a few of these deals over the years and often I can enjoy it after a bit of time. The older Colts speak to me. That QR...

    True Velocity sues SIG over ammo technology

    Seems SIG hired away several key people from True Velocity to give them information to allow them to make the ammo for the new military contract. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/true-velocity-sues-sig-sauer-180351916.html

    Stealth Arms Platypus

    Thanks. Not competing. I am looking for something suppressor set mostly that I can put a dot on for my old eyes. Yea, some of their color options are going to be a bit hard to sell. That said, I do appreciate them doing it as they are going to coat it so may as well make the buyer happy...

    Stealth Arms Platypus

    For those of you with one. Things you would like to change about it? Looking for input on what I should order down the road. I know it is real personal though.

    Stealth Arms Platypus

    Being able to build it the way you want it, at a price I find reasonable, is a big plus for me. If I do it, I will order it and wait the time to get it just the way I want it. That said, I haven't been able to handle one to help me figure out what I want/don't want which has slowed my...

    US Navy Deletes Photo Of Ship Commander Shooting Rifle With Backwards Scope

    Not everyone in the military nor police is a "gun person", even the ones who should be. I still remember a buddy of mine (Army Major) having his SF neighbor mount his hunting scope for him (SF guy was a medic, not a weapons SGT). Anyway, buddy could not get it zeroed. This was because it was...

    Tax Returns Gun Prices ++ Up

    People don't realize how much they really pay over a year. I'm pushing 50% if you include property, sales tax, state tax, medicare/caid and the miscellaneous things they get you for during a year. Pretty crazy. Cuts into one's hobby and life.

    Range report on Taurus 327 in .327 Magnum

    Very sorry, it was Galloway Precision for the spring kit, not Dawson. This should be the kit I used; https://gallowayprecision.com/reduced-power-spring-kit-for-taurus-856-revolvers
