    Chris Reeve Green Beret

    I wouldnt consider myself a knife snob but I like to think I have a few nice things, for fixed blades I would say Tops are the highest quality I own, not anymore. I've had the Chris Reeve itch for awhile now and finally pulled the trigger, Green Beret flat dark earth 7", had to search long and...

    Recoil of BP

    I know its pretty much sacrilegious to own a new gun and not shoot it for a year but thats what I did. Just didnt have time or a handy place available to shoot my new Pietta 1858. This was also my first experience actually shooting a cap and ball revolver. I've shot a .50 inline muzzleloader...

    ROA loading lever on a Pietta?

    Do they have kits or is it even possible to put the latch that hooks the loading lever next to the barrel from a ROA to a Pietta? I think the the Ruger style is far superior.

    naa companion or super companion?

    Basically what the title says.. I'm trying to decide between the regular companion and the super companion. Obviously you get a little more punch outta the magnum but i like the shorter profile of the regular companion.. Does anyone out there own both? and if so how which one do you prefer?

    Shooting cowboy loads in a converted 1858?

    I just purchased a 1858 Remington and I am planning to get the Howells conversion cylinder for it.. This is my first blackpowder pistol. I know the obvious, like don't use smokeless ammunition in a blackpowder firearm, but I've also read about people using cowboy action loads in them.. Don't...

    fun targets...

    How many of you don't get a kick out of putting holes in paper... Not to bash on those of you who love putting neat little 1/2 in. groups into bullseyes, its just not my cup of tea... I guess the real question is who here likes to shoot reactive targets (fruit, concrete, tannerite, etc) and...

    Benelli semi-auto rifle...

    I was wondering why Benelli or no one else has come up with a recoil operated rifle. I would think Benelli would do this off of their inertia driven shotgun and with a detachable magazine it could be a great success if it worked. I would definatly want a modern centerfire semi-auto that didn't...

    cheap scope question..

    I was wondering what would be the best scope for shooting out to 500 yards.. I'll be trying to hit pop cans and other stuff out to that distance with a .30-06... I was looking at the bushnell banner and they look pretty good.. at walmart they're only $80.. I don't really want to spend over...

    I'm a horrible handgun shooter

    I honestly do not find much interest or fun in shooting pistols... Mostly because I suck.. and secondly because I suck... I haven't quite figured out how to control any recoil above .22lr... I've shot 22lr, 9mm, .38 Special, .357 Mag, and .44 Mag.. and the only cartridge I have become efficient...

    Remington 547 .22

    Out of curiousity I went to Remington's website to see if they had any .22s that were similar to the Model 700... Voila!! They specify that the Model 547 has a bolt based off the 700.. I'm wondering if anyone owns one of these and how they shoot.. I'm also wondering how similar it is to the...

    Handi Rifle .500 S&W Mag recoil..

    I really want to get one of these.. I think the low price of the rifle would somewhat offset the outrageous price of the ammo, however I don't want to buy something that I won't be able to shoot... I can handle a 12 gauge just fine.. I don't really like slugs all too much tho.. But I absolutely...
