    Stainless Virginian Dragoon (1974)

    Just bought this from an estate sale and currently reading up in it. Figured I'd share with you all. It's in 44 mag. Hoping I didn't overpay, what is a ballpark figure for one of these? They seem to be decently reviewed and robustly made. I do not believe it's been fired. Didn't see anything on...

    What is this one of a kind mini14 found at an estate sale?!

    Can anyone help me? Have found very little information and have no clue what it is or what it's worth. Looks very alien to me, do any of you guys have any idea what it is? It's a 1977 mini14 but not like anything I've ever seen before aside from seeing a magazine cover with something similar. Is...

    I have to show you guys this Bubba'd 45/70 I just bought

    So my buddy got this in a trade and sold it to me for 450$. Check this thing out. It's a marlin 1895G that has drc xs sights, big loop lever, hammer assist doohickey (very technical term), and a forend that looks right out of the future. The guy rattle canned the stock black after he failed at...

    Tumbling brass on a budget advice

    Howdy guys. I am trying to get into using a tumbler and with the way things are going nowadays I'm in a budget. I live in Alaska and it's cold so I don't think wet tumbling is the way to go because I think it would take forever to dry. I have heard vibratory tumblers throw a bunch of lead dust...

    Does anyone here not tumble brass?

    I uh....might be disgusting but I've never tumbled anything I've reloaded. The brass looks ugly and I'm sure I have to clean the dies more often but I clean out the primer pockets before seating. Am I in the minority with this? I'd like fresh looking brass but if it's just for me and not for...

    223 primer seating woes

    Hello all, So I'm new to reloading 223 but have been reloading for larger calibers for a while now. These primers are so tough to seat. I feel like probably 3 or 4 out of 10 seatings damage the primers because it's to tight and I actually just had one go off while seating which made me have to...

    Cheaper than dirt... Unless during a crisis

    Shame on these guys. What a joke. They seem to have a magic button that triples or quadruple prices during whatever perceived threat we have at the Moment. Sharing to show the callousness of them this time as a reminder to all. I will never use these guys again for anything ever.

    Comparing a colt 6920 to a Palmetto build your own kit

    I am not an ar guy by a Longshot. I have been an Ak guy but have been mulling over buying an ar lately. I have researched and the colt 6920 seems to be the gold standard. How would it compare to a psa kit? Are you paying for the colt name or are they better? I was hoping to get something around...

    Inexpensive weapon light advice

    So I have been researching around and it seems like a tlr1 is a good starting point for a light on my Glock 19. I figured I'd ask you guys if there are any other lights around 40 to 60 as opposed to the 110 or so this one runs. I understand you get what you pay for but if there's something that...

    Let's talk about quality cleaning kits

    I have two cheaply made kits that I use for my firearms. There is a lot of plastic bits that always seem to bend and break and id like to move away from that to stuff that is higher quality. Is there a super refined kit where everything is metal, maybe snaps in so it doesn't fall out, etc? Am I...
