    Which 70 series 1911 at/under $1000?

    I'm looking for a 70 series 1911 at or under the $1k mark, either new or gently used. Knowing what you know about these and the market in general, what would you recommend for a new or gently used example that goes for this price point, and why? Thanks for any help! Doug

    Help me pick an AR lower.

    I second the Surplus Ammo and Arms lower, made by Aero Precision. Aero makes lowers for other big name players too, just with different roll marks applied (obviously). My lower that is purchased from them is terrific, makes a tight fit to the Aero upper and I was able to finish the...

    Chinese ammo- results

    those pics resurfaced recently, but have been around for years. It was reported back then that that 629 was blown up due to some American ham fisted reloader, not some mystery Chinese ammo.

    handgun nirvana?

    After taking the advice of a sage co-worker, I found a nearly new Ruger GP100 for $299 a few months back, and have loved every minute of it. Frankly, I go to the range and find myself only shooting the GP and the wonderful Sig Sauer SP2022 (that I was lucky to only pay $399 new). I can't think...

    S&W police trade ins at J&G. Good Buy?

    I can't speak specifically to these guns, but don't hesitate to buy from J&G. As a Phoenix resident, i chat with these chaps at gun shows, and stock up on ammo when they are in town (they are based in Prescott, AZ). Good bunch of folks!

    MFS ammo (made in Hungary I believe)

    I bought and shot 5 boxes from Cabelas a few weeks back, in 38spl. The price was great, it shot just fine, and i'll buy more if it becomes available again. It didn't seem any more dirty or less accurate than the other lower cost ammo.

    Just ordered a GP100-4 inch-Blue and have ?

    awesome, congrats! I bought a 4" stainless one just a few months ago myself. A dealer in New Mexico had 200 of them that they purchased from a security company that lost a govt. contract. It is in great shape, and was hardly fired. At only $299, I should have bought two! ;) The GP has...

    2" barreled 357 mags; a couple questions

    I'm considering a classic S&W model 60 357, and was wondering what the recoil is like with this short of a barrel and reduced grip length. Are these guns better suited for 38 special instead? Also, if i do use factory 357 defense rounds, do i lose a lot of FPS going with a barrel this...

    Has anyone seen these Mueller Optics?

    Mueller's are exceptional scopes for the money, but i don't know why you believe they are made in the U.S. Everything i've read says they are Made in China, as are a whole host of scopes in this price range.
