I looked at one of these at a gunshow last weekend. Price was right at about $300 but is it a good deal?

A Glock 19 9mm would have been nice but I had to settle for a pair of shorts to wear with my new Ruger T shirt to the range! :D One of the guys at the range this AM admired my shirt. A Jeff Foxworthy moment!

I would like to try reloading and I see on the Lee Precision site they have a basic reloading kit for 24 bucks called the Classic Lee Loader. It is available in many calibers. If I order this kit for a 38 special, is this really the only thing I will need to reload this caliber? I see all the...

I have worked retail my entire life in consumer electronics and appliances. Everybody is always looking for a bargain and wants a lower price. I would like to buy a Glock 19 9mm rather soon and I have seen prices range from $599 for the piece in a case with light and I have seen others used...

Is there a good book that teaches pistol shooting technique? I have been checking out the net and have found a couple of sights that have some fairly good info, but not exactly what I am looking for. Is there anything any of you could reccommend as a "bible" for a new shooter who is...

:confused: I have read a lot on this site saying you should practice by dry firing your pistol. The instruction manuals tell you not to dry fire the weapon. :uhoh: Is this because of a safety/liability issue or can you actually harm the gun? If there any difference of the effect on the gun...

Childhood memories are the best! On my 6th birthday my grandma gave me a cap gun set with belt and holsters. No longer have them 50 years later but I can still visualize them. First BB gun was a Daisy pistol from Santa at age 8. I had lots of fun shooting tin cans and putting BB holes in the...

Does anybody have an adult family member who is a convicted felon, has lived in your home and you own firearms? :eek: We have had to deal with this nightmare and it is my understanding they cannot even be in a home where there are firearms present. We entrusted the guns to a neighbor while...

I have already embarrased myself once on this site today so I may as well do it again. :o I assume it is for going into dark places (duh) and frees up a hand from holding the flashlight? Are there other guns with a light as well? I looked at one yesterday and thought it was pretty cool but...

I took my new Buckmark out today for the first time and am wondering if I bought a POS. When I load the magazine the cartridges won't stay in and come flying out. I had some old Wildcat 22 cartridges that worked ok but when I used new ammo I bought yesterday from Scheels, it doesn't work...

Just curious as to what the favorites are. I just bought a new Buckmark I'm anxious to try out.

I have been reading a few comments stating most of the anti-gun celebs have armed body guards. :confused: If this is true, talk about a double standard!! :barf: Where do they get off? I guess they get by with it because of who they are, and there is a small segment of society that thinks...

I have a couple but have never shot either. A Cobra 32 derringer and a NAA miniature 22 long. I just think they are cool, but of no practical value as a weapon in today's world. :)

Guns, guns, guns!! They kill people. Let's change the laws; lets repeal the second ammendment! Blah, blah, blah! I have listened to countless bits of broadcasts and I haven't heard anybody mention addressing mental illness! A gun never killed anybody but a mentally ill person (with a gun in...

:what: Let's start teaching children about firearms and gun safety starting in grade school, and continue through 12th grade with some hands on! And let's make it mandatory. Afterall it's OUR Second Ammendment. I believe most antigun people are frightened because they don't understand and...

I get so pissed everytime I hear someone say we live in a violent society. :mad: (Bill O'Reilly was just making some remarks on FOX News that prompted me to post this.) I don't think for one minute our society is violent; we just have a few violent gun slinging nuts hell bent on hurting and...

:what: I attended several antique shows over the last few weekends and I have seen 22L ammo in newer boxes covered in shrink plastic that are priced in the $8 to $12 range and above as well as old shotgun shells, etc. None of it appeared to be that old. I had a friend that sold 3 old boxes...

I recently subscribed to "American Handgunner." What other periodicals do you guys recommend for handgun enthusiasts?

I own a NAA 22L Mini Revolver but have never fired it. I bought it because I thought it was cool and I am fascinated by derringers. Can anyone tell me about their shooting experience with one of these guns? Just curious. :)

I own a S&W 357 magnum and find the recoil manageable but I would love to try a 44 magnum. :fire: From what I have been told, I am afraid I would pull the trigger of the 44 and have it end up in the back 40. :uhoh: How does the 44 recoil compare to the 357 magnum?
