I just acquired a good used Eagle brand "Q.D." scope mount for my Mini-14 Ranch Rifle. It's the one that replaces the bolt lock cover plate and allows use of the iron sights by looking under it. Of course this one came without instructions or any Allen wrenches, but for the price, I can't...

Looking for some recommendations for a non-penetrating oil for lubing magazines. A Google search didn't accomplish anything good, even after weeding out irrelevant words like "paint." Thanks.

I've got an early-1991 Mossberg 500A that isn't drilled and tapped for a scope mount. I'd like to put a Picatinny rail on it for a reflex or holo sight. Customer service at Mossberg sent me a reply Monday which said in part Um, okay. :scrutiny: Mesa Tactical makes a kinda cool rig that...

I've been doing some research lately on hi-cap magazines for the Mini-14, since I'm looking to acquire at least six more 30-rounders. I just plain will not pay big bucks for Ruger factory mags, and that's that. I'll "settle for" real PMI's or Thermolds, but not at scalper prices. Here are a...

Kind of a two-part question, because I'm also going to ask about anyone's experiences with a certain vendor. I'm looking into the few aftermarket stocks and forends for an Ithaca 37. I don't want a pistol-grip-only, or a folder, but have been thinking about something with a full buttstock and a...

Okay, this section says "Keeping weapons in good order, improving functionality." (Nothing to do with "our" Cosmoline or the thread running elsewhere about "skanky" pink guns . . . :rolleyes: ) Anyway, I never encountered the preservative stuff before, even during eight years in the USAF. I...

I've Googled all over the place, and I think I know the answer, but was hoping someone here would know fersure. I'm looking into a barely used SIG P226DAK, and am trying to sort out the differences between a P226, P226R, and the DAK. I know the DAK is a trigger system, so that part is probably...

Just wondering what the latest figure is on how many people in the U.S. (legally) own at least one gun. On my favorite law enforcement forum, one member posted what he titled "Firearms refresher course." It was full of quotes like "A gun in the hand is better than a cop on the phone." I thought...

My "new" Model 3913 came with one 8-round magazine. I was wondering if anyone could post a pic of their 3913 with a Pro-Mag 10-rounder in it. I'd probably stick with the original (factory, I guess) one in the pistol for carry, with a couple of the larger ones for spares. (After I do the BA/UU/R...

I just acquired a "new" S&W 3913, and was looking around for info on carry ammo. Based on discussions about the "short barrel" Gold Dot JHPs in revolvers, I was thinking about the Speer 124-grain 9mm. Technical data on one vendor's site showed the same muzzle velocity for "plain" and +P, with...

This morning when I put on the t-shirt with a similar design on it, I wondered if any were for sale on-line. Didn't find any t-shirts, just this belt buckle. :cool: I had never heard of 2nd Amendment Store.Com before. Looks interesting.

In another thread, Zach S wrote: First time I've heard/seen anything like that. Can you elaborate as to a particular model, and what you dislike about it? I was considering the "SPEEDFEED® III" for my 500A, #0255 as a set. (Don't need the forend, but I can't remember the number for the...

Of course now I can't find the thread, but a few weeks back there was a discussion that got around to timing problems on Pythons. On one chamber, my 1967 edition will occasionally put the dent on the edge of the primer pocket instead of in the center of the primer. The resulting click-no-boom...

It just dawned on me that all of these will work for my Ithaca 37 as well as for my Mossberg 500A. I've been looking over some of these as possible additions/upgrades and was wondering if anyone here was or is using any of the following, and the pros and cons of same: 1) Might as well address...

I've just started planning some upgrades to an "old" 500A that has sat in a fleece-lined case for several years. It's going to want refinishing, if nothing else. The safety has "gone froze," possibly from changing back to the wood stock from the pistol grip. (One of the many things I've learned...
