You would do best to buy a complete upper with bolt and carrier. The bolt and carrier "mate" to the upper. Switching parts around between uppers will cause premature wear on all the parts. Bushmaster lists most of their uppers in the $500.00-$600.00 range.

I have a Leupold 2X20 handgun scope on my Super Redhawk. It is nearly impossible to hunt with this type of scope. You have to have the sights pretty much on target before you can see anything but black. The field of view is very small and that makes target acquisition very slow. I have lent...

The answer to your question would fill a book (small, paperback). There are different models, and then there are different variants of the various models from year to year. Colt has a reputation for changing things mid-stream quite frequently. Blue label, white label, small pin, large...

Soft points will feed well if they are pointy points. Soft points that are blunt will hang up on the feed ramp. Do not buy any Indian surplus ammo. It is very very bad amunition. The Cavim surplus is also a complete waste of money.

Well, we finished moving her in today. Sort of. When you move from a large house to a small apartment, some things cannot come along. She, of course, insisted that everything must come, which of course was not possible. I sat down with her tonight and asked her (after she had been forced to...

She is settling into a housing complex with twenty buidings, and no onsight management or medical staff. It sits right across from the Care Center (sort of the next stop), but it is an independant-living neighborhood. Borrowing or loosing it seemed atractive this morning, but at the end of...

Three rounds with a primer and no powder would be a bad day for the revolver, but I don't think pieces would go flying. Live rounds would be a serious problem. As I eluded earlier, she has an exiteable nature. At this point, I still see myself asking her tomorrow to give me her firearm...

My brother-in-law reloads. I was telling my wife today that loads with no powder may be the answer. Seems very lame to a gunnut like me.

Moved my mom into A fourplex style senior housing neighborhood today. She has a Colt Trooper .357Mag that she has kept around to feel secure over the years. She just moved into a fourplex unit ( one of twenty on site) today, and I am thinking it is time to ask her to pass her piece on to me...

$750.00 to $850.00 around here. If I was buying, I'd offer $700.00. If I was selling, I'd want $900.00.

No need for namecalling.:neener: Goof Off. Is that anything like GooBeGone?

Because although all of these little "tweeks" improved various rifles of mine, messing with the hammer spring could produce failure to ignite the primer. A lighter trigger isn't much good if the gun won't function properly. Another consideration is this; combat weapons do not have a hair...

Rather than clipping the hammer spring, you might try this; Buff the pins as described in the thread mentioned. To reduce the pull weight- when you place the hammer and spring back into the lower, let the left leg of the spring (as you see it when looking into the lower with the stock...

That is an excellent method for checking mechanical zero. Wish I had known about that before mounting my scope. The allen screws are there for a reason. One of the few things discussed in the instructions. Might as well use them. They are to set the turret caps back to zero after you have...

I had an experience similar to that of mgjohn. A 44 Magnum round split near the base and burned one of the chambers on my Super Redhawk. I still shoot some Blazer 44Mag and 44Special, but not in anything but the SRH.

After you have zeroed the scope at whatever range you pick, loosen the allen screws on the turrets a bit and reset the dials to zero. Tighten the allen screws. Then if you move the turrets for one reason or another, you can set the reticle back to the zero you have established. Don't feel...

Lowes. BWAAhahahaha!!!! If they sold guns (they don't) you'd never find anyone to fill the paperwork out. As a matter of fact, I was in an Ace hardware in Wisconsin a few months back, and they had a very nice firearms section. In my town, True Value is the hardware store with all the...

It has been pointed out that banning firearms did not eliminate violent crime in Britain. It has also been pointed out that man has been murdering other humans since there were two men to start an arguement. Quite a few years before gunpowder was invented. Guns are not the root of all evil...

I agree with DorGunR. I don't want to give up my guns, and more bluntly put, I will not give them up. What makes you think you have the best sollution to this imagined problem? You don't want to own guns. Well, you do want to sometimes, but you don't want me to own guns. Can I own big...
