    Gun pictures with items in the trigger area

    So what do you think about concealed carry with a round in the chamber? The gun is usually pointed in a direction that is dangerous to your leg and foot. Pocket carry means that if you sit down among other people the gun will be pointed at others at times. The four rules are wonderful while...

    Whats yours?

    See all that ammo? If I shot it all through just a few guns they would all be worn out.

    JC Higgins .22 rifle - no serial#?

    I have a JC Higgins Model 31 that doesn't have any s/n either. I looked into this some time back and found that they weren't required when it was made, probably mid to late '50s. My dad bought this rifle new for about $25 with a scope included. The research I did also revealed that the gun...

    I confess -- I'm a Kel-Tec fan....

    Don't know if I'd call myself a fan but my two KTs are more than any other brand I own and I don't plan on dumping either. The P11 is in the drawer by the bed because it's simple, reliable, and strong enough. The trigger is such that you really have to want to shoot it to make it happen but...

    Help understanding M1 Carbine

    My M1 Carbine is the most ergonomic and fun gun to shoot I own though the AR I just built may challenge that title. If I have to carry a rifle for a long time nothing comes close. I've dropped one turkey and one deer in short order with it over a short time in the field. It shoots what is...

    Free floating barrel - whats it mean?

    Glad this came up. Hopefully the parts to complete my first AR build will arrive Monday and I'll become one of those who knows all about them soon. I wanted to go realitivey KISS this first time so no float tube. Wondering if I should have today I thought back on what I know about floated...

    Round count - Your most heavily used gun (poll)

    Forty someodd 500 round bricks through my Buckmark pistol before I finally replaced the firing pin. Bought a recoil spring and maybe the fourth recoil buffer for it at the same time but have yet to put the new recoil spring in it.

    First AR build...buncha questions

    Sorry for the length of this post and all the questions. Please answer any or all if you are so inclined. I have in my possession an RRA lower and LPK with an RRA two stage trigger. The mag release is installed but I'm waiting for a set of punches and brass hammer to arrive from CDNN...

    Which 9mm would you buy first?

    Based on my experience don't get the CZ, you may not feel the need for a better handgun.

    An idea:

    It could be said that we held off the Soviet Union through the cold war with the threat of 'revenge'. We were sitting here waiting for them to launch a first strike which would have taken out American cities. They knew that the 'revenge' would take out their cities and very importantly, their...

    The police will protect you, so concealed firearm permits should be done away with!

    Since your room mate lives in a dream world he probably watches a lot of TV including some of the police shows that go on ad infinitum these days; CSI whatever, Cold Case Files. Law and Order, etc. These are supposed to be about the best of the best. What are they doing? Applying the law to...

    First handgun

    Nine is fine. Do yourself a favor and hold a CZ before you lay down any cash. They are very accurate and reliable and just feel great in your hand. Great value IMHO.

    .22lr or 9mm

    Another vote here for a 9 mm and a conversion kit. I took my 9 mm compact CZ PCR out the door at a gunshow for $411 and found a deal for a Kadet Kit with one mag at Gander Mountain for $150. In 9 mm or .22 this gun is perfect. With the Kadet Kit it rivals my Buckmark for accuracy and beats...

    how reliable are cz 9mm handguns?

    My PCR is the only semi-auto I've ever owned that I can honestly say has never failed in any way. It's currently at about 1100 rounds I think. It's also the best feeling and most naturally pointing handgun I own and in my opinion a great looking handgun. From the bench I can shoot ragged...

    What is considered "good" .22 ammo?

    I won't buy bare lead so everything I say refers to copper plated or washed. I'm working on a brick of Federal and it's good, much better than the Remington offering, but not always easy to find in bulk. I noticed that what seems to be more and more available in bulk is the Aguila stuff so I...

    HELP! IM LOOKING FOR A GOOD 22lr!!

    I have over 40 bricks through my Buckmark and still love to shoot it. Finally had to replace the firing pin and on my 4th recoil buffer but it's really better than when new. The trigger is the standard to which I compare all triggers. The Kadet kit on my CZ PCR makes another .22 LR pistol...

    Favorite Bulk .22lr

    I have an unopened brick of Federal in my trunk, it works very well but is sometimes hard to find. I bought a couple of 50 round boxes of the Aguila ammo to try out at the last show and it seems to work fine. It seems to be becoming more available in bulk so I'll probably try a brick of that...

    Kids and Hearing Protection: Morons at the range AGAIN!

    I am constantly amazed at how many people don't make their kids aware of and even expose them to the dangers life presents. Most disturbing to me is the kids playing or riding bicycles, tricycles, skateboards, etc on residential streets and totally oblivious to traffic. Then there's the...

    M1 Carbine - questionable stopping power

    So far every living thing I've shot at with my M1 Carbine died in its tracks without being too chewed up to turn into food, one turkey and one deer. Obviously the turkey doesn't say much about it's defensive capabities but the deer was decent size and I didn't have to chase it down like some...

    Mitchell Citation II vs Ruger/Buckmark?

    I know nothing about the Mitchell but you can't go wrong with a Buckmark. Mine has the trigger to which I compare everything else and after 40, maybe 50 bricks it's as accurate as ever. I've replaced the recoil buffer a couple of times and finally the firing pin and it seems better than new...
