    Smallest snubbie?

    I have, and carry regularly a S&W 637 Airweight. I do actually forget that it is there. I will be the first to admit that shooting it is nothing like my 1911s or my BHPs but then they don't fit in my pocket either. It is not a range gun but it still does the job quite effectively.

    What do people do with nice .22 LR Rifles?

    I have a fellow offering a Ruger 77/22 for around $450, I think he will go down some. The rifle looks new though I know he has had it for several years, It has a Williams receiver sight on it. Any body have any info on these?

    Why is an Olympic AR-15 Bad?

    Crap, I don't know what to think. I'm retired military (heavy on the Infantry) and have been in LE for the past 20 1/2 years. I have participated in a bunch of training. During all this time I have had first hand experience with a number of AR brands, some good some not so good. That said, I own...

    Bear defense rifle

    I don't hunt bears, ever. But I do spend a lot of time where there are large numbers of them and see them frequently. If I could not find my 870?? then I would go with my 45 70 1886... I always know where my 870 is.

    Pre '64 winchester!!!

    We have both in the family, I have a 1953 M 70 in 30 06 and my son has a SC mfg by FN in the same caliber. We have had them to the range together a number of times. Even though I like the looks of the pre 64 better, I have to admit it don't shoot no better. :)

    7X57mm Mauser bullets

    What rcmodel said is true. You simply cannot go wrong with NPs. They will do the job. I load nothing else, for hunting.

    Model 70 question

    I ran into a fellow today who is looking to sell a Win Model 70 in 300 Win Mag with a 5xx,xxx serial no. That puts the rifle in the 1962 or 1963 year group. I would say its in about 90% condition but, I think the stock may have been refinished. The guy wants $500.00 for it. I would appreciate...

    AMD-65 or Arsenal AK

    I bought an arsenal and have only one thing bad to say about it, the sights were canted to one side. It was one of the last with the milled receivers, very well made rifle. I have heard good things about their current production as well. Oh, the sights were fixed and it shoots well.

    Boy, 11, uses 22LR to protect mom against home invaders

    Sounds to me like somebody has a son that they can be extremely proud of. He in fact saved their collective bacon, with a .22. By the way, there are a lot of people, and other creatures, that are no longer on this earth due to the ubiquitous .22. GOOD JOB YOUNG MAN!!!:D

    Why do you carry?

    My job includes the disciplinary process for incarcerated persons in my states prison system. I generally do not make many friends in this line of work and these people do get out. Twice over the last 20 years I have run into an individual who has unpleasant memories of me. None of these...

    Tell me about the Ruger M77

    The M77 Hawkeye is pretty tough to beat, for the price, I'd call it a best buy.

    Garand shooting results

    First let me apologize for not having a reference but I recently read an article by a fellow concerning loading for milsurp rifles. One section of that article addressed loading 30 06 for the M 1917, the M 1903 and the M1 Garand. Loading for the M1 was lighter than for the bolt guns so as not to...

    Anyone have a Swedish Mauser?

    I have delt with a lot of different Mausers and the M-96 swede comes in very high on my list. The ammunition is readily available, milsurp or sporting, recoil is negligible and accuracy is good. The sights on the swede Mausers are, imho the best of all the milsurp Mausers. You would be pleased...

    How often do you clean your 22?

    After every trip to the range I use a hair paint brush on the receiver to remove any debris picked up during the days shooting. I squirt a little solvent down the barrel and a couple of passes with a boresnake. And last a wipedown of the exterior. I am sure I could get by with less, but then I...

    Soon to be my first trip to Cabelas in Lacey Washington, What to expect?

    There is a gun library at the Lacey store and as other posters have pointed out, it is a neat place to waste some time. One can beat their prices else where without much trouble, as a matter of fact threr is a Wall Mart just across the freeway that sells ammo cheaper. If you have never been to a...
