Does anyone else have issues loading ProMag pistol mags to full capacityz or are my thumbs just that weak? I've never had a magazine I couldn't load to max capacity, but this morning I received a 15 round mag for my CZ P10c, and I only managed to get 10 rounds in. I took it apart to see if there...

Morning, everyone. I'm in need of advice/assistance. I haven't taken down my RAMI in awhile, so I decided to field strip it and give it a good cleaning. Problem is, I can't get the blasted slidestop to pop out. At ALL. While fiddling with it, I also discovered that the slide won't lock open...

I just received this spear from my wife for Xmas (she knows what I like), and was wondering about replacement shafts for it. In particular, a polypropylene one, much like Cold Steel's training staff. I'm unsure if the diameters between the wooden shafts and the polypropylene staffs are similar...

I have just acquired a CZ RAMI; I've wanted a subcompact 9mm for Concealment for a while, and I couldn't pass it up. I've read that this model wasn't too keen on +P ammo. Is this true? And, for those of you who have and shoot the RAMI, what rounds have you had the best results with? If you load...

I received a pump action field tactical model, but I can't load more than two rounds in it. I removed the cap for the tube, but can't tell how to get the eend off the tube to see if there's a plug installed. It came with no manual.

I've been thinking about tax return firearm purchases, and I'm leaning towards a subcompact, for when I need to conceal. I've got a couple of different models in mind: a 1911 Officer's model, a snubbie, Keltecs, etcetera. I was considering the XDs .45ACP, but I think I'll pass, due to the...

I wanted to see if anyone else has this knife, and if so, their thoughts. A friend of mine bought for me for Christmas; we're both gunnies and knife nerds. Awhile back, we discussed the Kabar TDI series. I had one, because I liked the idea behind it, but I thought Kabar kind of half assed the...

I recently picked up a sap at a flea market. I collect them, never carry them, and PA law allows for their possession as a collectible/curio. I was wondering if anyone has ever heard of Safariland producing saps or blackjacks. This one is branded on the strap side with their logo, and the...

First off, I want to point out that the situation I'm talking about did not happen to me, nor was witnessed by me. It comes from a lively debate with someone else, who thought that armed citizens have a responsibility to intervene in dangerous situations, a la Batman. You are walking down the...

Let's start a list; any reason you can think of, and funny reasons will not be discouraged! :D 1. Because John Moses Browning smiles upon you from Heaven when you shoot one. 2. Because it annoys plastic wundernine fanbois that your gun is better than theirs. :neener:

my girlfriend was just telling me about one she saw in one of our local gunshops. i've been wanting to buy a Raven .25 for awhile; it was my first gun, and i liked mine a lot. she saw one behind the counter, and asked the shopkeeper about it, but he instead suggested the gun next to it, which...

that's pretty much it. well, no, it's not. i was looking for an affordable one. i know DanWesson, Les Baer, SIG Sauer, Kimber, and a few other companies made their own versions of the Colt CCO. i'm looking for the most affordable version. when i say affordable, that pretty much discounts Les...

i'm having First World Problems, hahaha. i recently found gainful employment, finally, after a string of temporary jobs and a few months of absolutely no work. it pays well, and things are starting to look up. so of course, the first thing i want to do is buy another gun, LOL. my...

this actually happened to me in the beginning of the summer. just looking for some thoughts on this. i was sitting in my house with my son, and i noticed some movement in my front winodw. i saw a man walking past my house in my front yard, and walk around the side, to my backyard. i ran...

i was in my local shop the other, doing a transfer, and as always, the counters were full of odd, unusual guns, some of which i knew well, many of which i'd never heard of. a lot of them were small pocket guns. they included Ravens, of course, along with Davis/Cobras, Jennings, and R&G. then...

can anyone tell me the difference between different brands of Russian ammo? i've shot Wolf ammo before, and while it's dirty, it ran fine. recently, Walmart began offering Tulammo brand ammunition in addition to Winchester, Federal, and Remington. $15 for 50 rounds of .45ACP sounds a lot better...

i've had a Taurus PT1911 for a couple of years now, and i'm approaching the 4,000 round mark...i think. honestly, i've lost track, so i'm just guesstimating. so far, the only thing i've done to it is routine cleaning and lubing. i've been contemplating other things, like changing the ambi...

the other day, on another forum, i read a post by someone that said, "maybe the anti gunners are God's way of keeping guns out of some people's hands". he was reffering to people he thought shouldn't be allowed to have guns, like people with short tempers, or people with depression. not people...

i did a search, but nothing came up, so i'm starting a thread on it. i want to change the safety on my Taurus PT1911 from an ambi safety, to a standard sized, single side safety. does anyone have any recommendations for a replacement safety, and if i'd need to fit it, or will it require a...

i need a replacement for mine. :( i looked on Cold Steel's website; i didn't see any for sale. am i out of luck, or is there someplace else to buy them? i'd like to get the exact style of handle, or a reasonable facsimile of it.
