    Walked into a Gun Shop Friday and saw this... AUG Clone MSAR

    I lusted for a AUG for a long time and was at a gun show and got to handle one was surprised at how heavy it was. It could be made to eject on rhe left as well. Had a chance to fire a Tavor and found it to be very but heavy. Guess I'll stick to left handed bolt guns.

    Ruger No. 1 Tropical

    I've had a No 1 in 45/70 and with heavy loads it's a bruiser,oddly enough had a chance to fire a No 1 in 375 H&H with the weight difference the 375 was on the same level as my heavy 45/70 loads. Anyeay a 458 is just what you need for any pachyderms prancing in tou bed of petunias.

    S&W Front sight replacement

    Tried that with nail polish still tough for me to see. I've green fiber optic sights on my 2 Rugers a GP100 and a Super Redhawk and find them much easier to see.

    S&W Front sight replacement

    The front sight is pinned so it shouldn't be that tough to replace. I'm going with the snith on this one. Wish S&W used the Ruger or Dan Wesson method to hold the front sight in place.

    What’s the limiting factor of 45acp?

    Souping up the 45 acp can be done but that means minor to major parts replacement. The increased pressure of the hotter loads means more recoil,wear and tear on the pistol.

    10mm 1911

    I have an SR1911 in 10 mm I like the pistol very much but I made 1 change to it,I put a flat bottom firing pin stop to slow down the slide and keep my brass in the same zip code. I also bought a 40 S&W barrel for the pistol as well.

    Well that was unpleasant; Ruger #1 chambered in .375 H&H Ackley Improved.

    Ages ago I had a chance to fire a No.1 in 375 H&H and as I recall the rifle was heavy 8 maybe 9 lbs don't remember if it had the red recoil pad,fired it standing up recoil was stiff but tolerable. Heavy loads loads in my No.1 in 45/70 were worse but that rifle was a good lb less. I did note to...

    New Caliber in the Ruger Super Redhawk.

    Does anyone know if there's case set back as in the S&W Model 53 in 22 Remington Jet. I believe Taurus makes a Raging Hornet as well.

    The Original Redhawk. 357 showed today

    I stumbled on one 7.5 " barrel some 35 years ago and since put some stout loads thru it,when you use your six rounds it will make a dandy club.

    .223 too powerful for home defense?

    I've read the responses and can't comment on what firearm to use but I can attest to this the muzzle blast and concussion of a 223 fired indoors is something you'll want to experience only once. I go to an indoor range that allows rifles up to 50 BMG and been around with someone firing an AR and...

    7.62x39 in AR?

    Not a hunter but I think the 300 BLK would be the better choice bolts and mags are the same you can turn 223 brass into 300 BLK with minimal effort. Bullet weight 110-220 grs .308 bullets are easier to come by than .310/.311 and.308 bullets have a much wider selection from Speer,Hornandy...

    The New S&W “Response” 9mm carbine

    Haven't read all 5 pages M&P and Glock mags doesn't count as a "variety" in my book. Living in MA hi cap mags made after 1994 are illegal and pricey 2nd hand. I got lucky and acquired a fair number of Beretta 92fs hi caps and would like to see a pcc that would use such mags. I don't care for the...

    6.5 Grendel Bolt Action. What's your experience?

    I've a Howa and 2 CZ 527 I'm pleased with both but,the Howa plastic trigger guard and magazines is a turn off. There is a solution to that Robertson makes a fixed mag and a detachable mag bottom metal using CZ 527 mags.

    Another "Which procedures to ship a rifle to a repair facility?" with UPS... topic.....

    Brought the rifle to FedEx they printed a shipping label from the QR code. The only other thing I had to do was put the RMA on the box was in and out in 5 min. If you have to ship a firearm back to the manufacturer call and ask for a prepaid shipping label that should make life a bit easier.

    Got my RMA today with a QR code so I'll box up the rifle and bring it to a FedEx hub to ship on Tuesday. CZ has an agreement with FedEx for shipping firearms.
