    What guns have you wanted but just couldn't justify paying the price?

    Early episode, don't remember what number, a rodeo cowboy is getting his RV towed. He comes out with N frame S&W. Cocks it. Three different camera angeles show it cocked, uncocked and cocked.

    What makes a gun "beautiful" or "ugly"

    Sometimes beauty is in the price. Budgeted for a rifle from an individual, guy backed out. Next day an Armalite AR 10 popped up. Same price. It had exactly 23 rounds through it. 600 bucks under retail. Beautiful. Ugliest fire arm in the world is the FAMAS. Get the willies just looking at one.

    Revolver or Semi Auto,you don't own,only because of it's price tag?

    Any machine gun. Colt model 1910, nine of those known to exist. The Swiss used to issue a Sig 9mm side arm to officers that was a true thing of beauty. 30 years ago those things were around one thousand dollars, no telling what they bring now. So scarce I've seen 3 and those were not for sale...

    Ok, why do people spend 15hundred+, for a semi auto copy of a machine pistol?

    I have a friend who is a licensed NFA dealer. Lots of cool toys. When he goes to a range or visits me he enjoys shooting a Mosin. 32 caliber revolver, black powder hand guns and H&R replica 45-70 carbines and rifles. He brings along vintage reloading stuff and loads one round at a time...

    7.62x39mm Semi-Auto Rifle - Ruger Mini 30?

    The VZ 58 is not an AK. Only thing they have in common is the cartridge. AK mags wont work. Mags are plentiful and reasonable. Much better weapon imho.

    Junction, Texas. Monarch migration. Took some bow hunters to Junction, always opens before gun season. Must have been millions on butterflies passing through. Quite a sight.

    AR10 Compatibility

    Hammer, trigger, springs for both and buffer tube are the same for all as far as I know. Retaining pins for trigger and hammer also. All 6 of the AR 10s i have owned were Armalite, can't comment on the others. But... get upper and lower from the same maker. Read too many stories about folks that...

    Post your weird gun stories

    Not a mystery, more of a CRS syndrome tale. I had several 1911s in a cabinet and noticed that the Colt was missing. Casual search turned into serious search turned into tearing the house apart. Same thing with my truck. Fretted over that for three days. Then the phone rings. It was Alex Hamilton...

    Anyone Knowledgeable On The VZ58?

    As far as I know all Czech made mags are aluminum not steel. Some have been painted black, most are gray. For some odd reason we can only get the 30 rounders. They come in 5, 10, 15 and 20 round versions but only available in Europe.
