    .405 Winchester

    Ya know, I was just lookin' at this thread thinkin' after reading this, this poor guy that wants to buy the 1895 won't want to go near a gun that shoots anything bigger than a .22.... laughing I think Mike, you have a really good point with the comment about the slug out of the featherweight...

    .405 Winchester

    The biggest gun I ever shot with a crescent buttplate was a handmade rifle that used .75 caliber roundballs. Relative to a common .50 caliber roundball, they looked like big bowling balls! While the recoil was pretty significant, it didn't end up hurting, but yes, you do have to let your...

    .405 Winchester

    That's just the point. I don't think this caliber is meant to be fired shot after shot after shot, crescent buttplate or not. Agreed that a crescent is probably not the best idea for such a heavy caliber (there are better ideas than a crescent buttplate for most ANY gun, as far as I'm...

    .405 Winchester

    New 1895's in Grade 1 (blued receiver) should be priced at about $1,100 or less (a 1895 from the 2002 catalog went for $1045 and it did not appear in the 2003 catalog) and that is the suggested retail price. I don't know too many gun shops that actually sell at suggested retail so I wouldn't...

    If you could shoot any gun ever made at any time in history what would you choose?

    Good grief, you guys think big. The only gun I want to shoot more than any other, is my little Browning Lt. Grade Elite 20 ga. over and under, in conjunction with the dream that I've left the office behind, it's a perfect warm sunny fall afternoon and I've got pheasants upon pheasants without...

    Anyone heard of Miwall ammo?

    I bought a case of 9mm reload ammo from them at a gunshow that was basically junk. Sometimes 2-3 jams per MAGAZINE. And I never have problems with any of the branded ammo that I normally get, both remanufactured and new (and I have tried most commonly available brands) so I have to put it down...

    What's Your Clay Game Gun?

    Dot, you keep shooting skeet with that pump, and when you do finally try it with an O/U, you'll be amazed at how much time you have to shoot your pairs!!! My first gun I ever used for clay targets was a Browning BPS pump. Yeah, I have quite a few beautiful O/Us now, including my baby - my...

    Artwork...slightly off-topic but not totally

    Mr. Kramer's illustrations are beautiful. He's incredibly talented. The ones I am familiar with appear in the FN military/law enforcement catalogs.

    What are you carrying today????

    For some reason I find this thread really interesting. Me? Front pocket - Bronze color shiny lipstick. My all time favorite color lipstick ever. I'd tell you the exact name, but still refuse to carry those bifocals I need to read the ultra-small 3 point type on the bottom label. Browning...

    CCI Blazer Exploding Casings?

    I use lots and lots of 9mm CCI Blazer ammo. I really like it. Never a problem. Hmmm.... The previous poster has an interesting theory about the range being able to sell brass casings, which CCI doesn't have.... seems quite plausible to me. I wouldn't doubt it in the least.

    List the TYPES of guns a newbie should try first ...

    Girls point of view: I would definitely go with a .22lr, either semi-auto pistol or revolver. Cheap to buy, cheap to shoot, no bad flinching habits up front from too much recoil. Plus they are more fun if you can be relatively accurate from the get-go, and the .22 makes that possible for...

    What does she look GOOOOOOD in?

    Over and Under shotguns: High grade walnut, receivers finely engraved with no bluing on the receiver (I've got that toxic sweat that is hard on bluing, even tho I love the look of it) Rifles: Nicely grained wood... always. Can't stand composite stocks, UNLESS they are camo! Receiver can be...

    I'm buying too many guns...

    Okay, so I'm glad I'm not the only one with this particular sickness. This year alone I have bought five Brownings. A Gold Turkey 12 ga., 2 Buckmark .22s, a 9mm Hi-power, and an A-bolt in 270 WSM. I got the last three shipped to me about oh, three weeks ago. I haven't even put a scope on the...

    question on confronting car thieves

    An economic loss to me is not worth the potential of jail time and/or hassle to get charges cleared on use of deadly force to defend such property. I would even worry about brandishment charges, because our law is pretty clear that you can't use deadly force to defend property. As someone...

    The Sportsman's Warehouse

    Sportsmen's Warehouse is my ultimate favorite store. Better than shoe shopping!!! There are three of them here in the Salt Lake/Provo/Ogden metro area. The selection is great, and as a female, I get really good non-discriminatory service from them. They have a lot of stuff that smaller...

    The problem with 3 gun matches is...

    Hoser, for shame. Actually, you might want to shoot like THIS shotgunning girl, if you were smart. ATA 2001 State and 2002 Zone lady champion, and 5th out of over 900 shooters, open class, in 2001 Zone Handicap. And I'm left handed, to boot.

    Holy exploding prairie dogs Batman!

    Laughed my head off when a friend sent me a sample clip from this site. He now makes his own home-style red mist videos.
