    Check out http://www.flickr.com/photos/davidneff/page2/ for some very cool photos of bullets in flight. Unfortunately I cannot copy and paste them here for some reason. But do yourself the favor and click the link.

    Do you enjoy shooting .22 LR?

    I own both a Ruger 10/22 and MkIII. While both have definitely helped with my accuracy and trigger control, I find I don't actually enjoy shooting them that much. I pull them out occasionally to give the larger guns a rest but I find I'm shooting them less with every passing range session...

    Etiquette of the FFL Transfer

    I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I regularly shop at a local gun store that offers great prices on their merchandise with a few odd exceptions. Occasionally they will have one or two guns that are horribly overpriced and in this case, one of them happens to be one I want, a RIA 1911 Tactical that...

    Practicing With Self Defense Shotguns

    My sole shotgun is a 28" Remington 1100 so it only gets used for clay sports but I'm also looking to pick up a short pump gun sometime soon. I read about some of you putting thousands of rounds through yours but I don't have a clear idea of what I can do with it. It seems like putting round...

    Remington 1100 Modification Questions

    I just purchased a used Remington 1100 with a 28" barrel with a fixed mod choke. I'm going to keep it in its original configuration when I'm shooting clays but I'm also planning on joining in on some 3 gun competitions soon. If I'm reading the USPSA shotgun rules correctly, it states that...

    Will the madness ever end?

    So I bought my first gun, a Yugo SKS, early last fall. Since then, I've picked up a Ruger 10/22 and MkIII, a Springfield XD 9, a Yugo 24/47 Mauser, a CMMG AR-15 and I just got back from the gun store where I purchased a used Remington 1100 in excellent shape for $300. Now I'm just wondering if...

    Proper Shotgun Fit

    I'm in the market for my first shotgun (primary use will be clay sports) and I've had it drummed into me from various posts here that proper fit is essential. I don't have any experienced shooting partners that could help me with this and I'd at least like to have a basic understanding of what...

    IDPA/USPSA/3-gun Shooting Equipment

    So what equipment (belt, holster, mag holders, etc.) do you guys use for your various action shooting sports? The reason for this is that I've since outgrown the cheap Fobus holster/mag holder I started with and I am looking to upgrade. The USPSA match I regularly shoot at holds rifle side...

    AR-15, 20" barrel, Gov't profile twist rate question

    I' m looking to purchase my first AR-15 and I've decided on getting a 20" flattop with a chrome-lined barrel. I'll be using it for plinking, 3-gun and CMP competitions. Cost does matter to me and I don't particularly care about being ultra competitive, I just want to have fun and build up my...

    How many of you have been delayed?

    I was quite excited this afternoon by the Dunham's counter when I saw a pristine Yugo 24/47 Mauser sitting in the display case. The stock was dark with only a handful of minor dings, the bore and rifling was pretty much perfect and the hardware had almost 100% bluing. I filled out the form...

    My new Ruger MkIII

    After much research and procrastination, I finally purchased myself a rimfire pistol. My choice was a Ruger MkIII with a 5.5" bull barrel. I picked it up today after the 48 hour waiting period and snagged an extra magazine the store had in stock. This pistol is amazingly accurate. I was...

    Tips for a New Shooter

    While I'm quite familiar with shooting rifles, I had absolutely no experience with pistols until I picked up my first one (a XD 9) 2 days ago. Initially it looked like I was spraying my targets with bird shot but I have been steadily improving. Now I'm just wondering what are some good tips...
