    If you could have only one O/U shotgun, what would it be?

    A friend of mine has a 12 ga. Cynergy Sporting; he uses it the way it came out of the box mostly for sporting clays and some skeet; once I got a chance to shoot it, its appearance was irrelevant. The way it balances, and the way it points is (IMHO) excellent. I have an XT that I had to get...

    If you could have only one O/U shotgun, what would it be?

    I've been shooting a lot of singles with my XT since I got in in March of this year. The guys I practice with shoot XTs, so I've been getting a lot of helpful suggestions from better, more experienced shooters. The way the gun fits you is always more important than the gun itself. I had to get...

    If you could have only one O/U shotgun, what would it be?

    My old 686 Gold E Sporting kicked me like a rented mule, but YMMV. I have a Citori XT that is working now that I got it fitted, but my first choice would be a Krieghoff K-80 Trap if I ever hit the lottery.

    Reccomend an O/U shotgun for me.

    This is the muzzle end of a NIB Baikal single barrel trap 12 ga. #IZH18; you can buy this NIB example for $169. Remington sells this gun in their Spartan line, but don't know the model number. The workmanship is a little ragged for my tastes, but to a large extent, you are getting what you are...

    Reccomend an O/U shotgun for me.

    This guy hit the nail on the head. I regularly shoot trap with a Citori XT; I'm not great at it, but I'm getting better, but most importantly, I'm having fun with it all the time. There are two schools of thought here. One is to buy the best O/U gun you can possibly afford, probably a field...

    Which .45??

    I love my SW1911, especially since I had it worked, so I'll agree with the "SW" posts.

    What upgrades to get for CZ75B

    1) I have the CZ rubber grips, I like them a lot and recommend them. 2) If the gun is cycling O.K., I'd be inclined to leave it alone. My .40 cal 75B had feeding problems with the Win Value Pack ammo. A Wolff 18 lb recoil spring and the Wolff XP mag springs cured my feeding problems with the...

    Kimber series 1 or 2 ?

    Sounds like you don't have a problem at this point; don't fix what ain't broke; just shoot it & enjoy it!

    Flicking The Cylinder Of A Revolver (A No No)

    Put up a sign that reads like this; "They are nice to look at, wonderful to behold...But if you abuse it, consider it sold!" Otherwise, "cylinder slammers" and "slide crashers" don't learn any better if they are not tactfully corrected (and you don't want to p!ss off a guy who might have a...

    Next Purchase: Autoloader or Wheelgun?

    I really do like both your choices. I think the right decision is to just buy both, or one and then the other!

    Local Indoor Firearms Range Raises its Rangetime Fees

    Rob1035; Yes they do offer annual memberships, they have gone up also, but I don't know how much. The thing is, I do quite a bit of trapshooting, and a little sporting clays, so I am hesitant to join an indoor pistol range on an annual basis. The trap club I go to does not have an indoor...

    Local Indoor Firearms Range Raises its Rangetime Fees

    I was out at the local indoor firearms range this past Sunday, and they had raised their rates, from $10.00 to $12.00, for 1/2 hour, and from $14.00 to $16.00 for an hour. And my own income ain't going up a dime this year. Man, first the gas prices go crazy, now this. I guess the answer is the...

    Sig P228 & Glock 17/19 comparisons

    I also own a P228 so I'm partial to it; I agree that the 17 is the best and most versatile Glock; the more shooting experience you have, the more you realize that these really are all good guns, not a bad choice to be made, and your preference is just as valid as anyone elses. Don't let anyone...

    I am not a fan of 1911s.

    Hey I don't want to come off like some raving lunatic on a persecution binge, but If a guy wants to make a 1911 argument (and these arguments will be made!) its good to see a consistant argument made. When my friend had his Star BM, the thing rattled like a tambourine, but that doesn't mean...

    I am not a fan of 1911s.

    Albanian wants to do a rant against the 1911, yet extoll the virtues of his Star BM 9mm on another thread; well here is a picture of a Star BM 9mm; Lemmesee, now what does that gun remind you of ???, hmmmm???...

    I am not a fan of 1911s.

    Albanian, I don't normally engage in "p!$$ing contests" on gun forums, but here goes anyway; I have to openly question your judgement on 1911s (yes, I love mine alot). This is based one of your other posts on this forum about your Star BM 9mm, as follows; Best cheap gun, cheap ammo combos...

    Smith & Wesson 1911s: Opinions?

    There aren't too many 1911s that I could directly compare to a S&W 945; a custom bullseye gun in capable hands will outshoot a 945 in equally capable hands, but the fact that a lot of competitive bullseye shooters already use 945s with minimal modifications, speaks more about the inherent...

    .380 vs compact 9mm?

    IMHO, Nein, Nyet, Nada, NO! This "perceived recoil" business gets blown way out of proportion. Anyone who tells you to go .380 over 9mm, because of less recoil, needs to get out to the range & practice with the 9mm. In other words, shoot the damn thing until you get accustomed to the way it...
