    On the AR 15 lower, what is the purpose of the cylindrical tube with the hole it in it on the right side of the receiver on the mag well in front of the mag release as seen in this pic?

    Best Mag for Springfield Armory Loaded Champion 1911

    I have a SA Loaded Champion (stainless) and was looking to purchase some additional magazines for it. The two that came with it have worked fine, but I have not shot the gun that much yet. Is there a magazine out there that any of you would recommend over the ones that come with the gun? If...

    Lever Gun: Large Loop vs Standard Loop

    I am leaning towards picking up a lever action carbine and really like the Puma 92. I have decided on the 16" in .357 blued finish. I am leaning towards the one with the standard loop b/c I do not have large hands. I would say my hands are about average at best. I wear a size medium glove...

    Help with Marlin 99M1 .22 Issue

    I have a Marlin 99M1 that I used to shoot all the time as a kid with no issues. I recently picked it up from my parents house and it has failure to feed issues. The cartridge will get stuck with the nose up too high above the chamber and the rim still down angled down in the feed throat. It...

    SA GI Micro Compact 1911 (.45) or Glock G26

    I am considering another pistol after the job situation improves. I would like a compact carry gun. I already have a SA Loaded Champion, a Stoeger Cougar, and a KT P3AT. I was thinking of something in between the KT and the other two. The prices of the two in the title are comparable.

    Cops (the TV show)

    I was watching COPS tonight, and yes I know it's a show for entertainment. However, I could see how a couple of the situations could be replicated anytime to anyone. Scenario 1: Cops find Ar-15 on a guy and make a big deal about it being loaded with hollowpoints. :what: Scenario 2...

    Angle of Fire in Self Defense

    I was thinking and would like to hear some others thoughts on this. If faced with a self defense situation where you had to shoot at an aggressor, would it make sense to drop to one knee the angle of trajectory of your round would be going upward. I think this would help with the possibility...

    NH Non-Resident Concealed Carry Permit

    I sent in the application for the NH non-res carry permit. My $20 check cleared on 5/29/08. Anybody have any experience with how long it takes to get your permit back in the mail? I did not see any info on turn around time. I may have overlooked that info.

    Kel-Tec P3AT IWB Question

    I have tried the search with no luck: Does anyone carry the KT P3AT with a FIST K4 or K8? These are IWB holsters made of "ultra-thin" kydex. I can't imagine the holster being that big considering the size of the gun. I have a P3AT coming in next week and I do not want to carry in a pocket...

    Which pocket gun caliber to go with?

    I am contemplating picking up a Kel-Tec. I am leading towards the PF-9 b/c I already have a Stoeger Cougar in 9mm (and a 1911 .45 and .38sp). I have considered the Kel-Tec .32acp or the .380 auto because of them being smaller than the PF-9. Would it not make more sense, though, to get the...

    Wadding Cloth

    Does anybody use wadding cloth such as Never-Dull to shine their stainless guns? I know it works on automotive metals such as chrome bumpers, but wondered if it would be ok or frowned upon to use on firearms.

    1911 Ivory Grips

    I have a stainless SA Loaded Champion and was considering putting some checkered bonded ivory grips on it. I am thinking it would look sharp, but does anybody have any pics with that configuration they could share with me?

    .22lr Conversion SA 1911 Champion

    I have searched this and have not found anything definative: Does anyone know of a .22lr conversion kit that will work the the SA 1911 Champion (4")? If so, is it in automobile terms a "bolt on" as in you just switch out a couple of parts and shoot .22lr and switch it back and shoot...

    SA 1911 Champion Takedown

    I searched but did not see anything related.....anyway, any tips on field stripping a SA 1911 Champion without using the guiderod clip? It is such a small piece and could easily be lost. If it does get misplaced, can I still takedown the pistol easily?

    Breaking in 1911

    I have recently purchased a SA Loaded Champion SS. I would like to start carrying this right away so I can get used to it sooner than later. I have read before that it may take 500+ rounds of FMJ to break the gun in before it will feed JHP's reliably. Would you carry a .45 with FMJ's during...

    Secondary CC Permit

    Does anybody know of any advantages to obtaining a non-resident CC permit if you have one in your home state already. I have a NC permit, but was looking into a NH as well since it is easy and cheap to obtain. NC is reciprocal with a few more states than NH and all inclusive of the ones NH is...

    SA Loaded 1911 Width

    I cannont find the dimensions anywhere on the web and I am considering picking one up soon. I am trying to figure if it will be more comfortable to carry IWB than my Stoeger Cougar 8000. The Couagar has a double stack mag and is about 1.5" wide. It pooches out pretty far as I am a thin guy...

    Skinny guy IWB carry

    I recently acquired my CCW and would like to carry IWB but I cannot find it comfortable at all. I am about 5'9" 150lbs and I am not skin and bones, but I lack too much extra meat also. My issues are two fold: 1. My pants do not really want to stay up, but if I tighten my belt too much...

    Springfield Armory 1911A1 Champion SS

    I am planning of picking up one of these very soon. I have been researching lately and NIB they have been running $800.00 on the web. If buying on internet for $800 plus the usual 3% upcharge for CC, $20 shipping, and $15 ffl I would be looking at $859 total. Does this seem reasonable for...
