    2nd strike capability?

    So when/where/from whos training did 2nd strike capable semi-autos suddenly become important? It seems like thats in every review of a new one these days whether it will do it or not. It kinda of flies in the face of tap,rap,bang no? I realize that started and is the only sensible option for...

    about Turkey loads...

    Ok so I'm going to show my ignorance of turkey hunting... An old curiousity came back to mind today as Midway & Cabelas both blasted out turkey season e-fliers. I've shot one turkey years ago that was terrorizing the neighbor kids and if memory serves it was a single shot 16ga with probably...

    Trying to remember the name of a bullet proof pad safety device

    A few months back I ran across a company site that is making bullet proof("resistant" maybe is a better word?) pads I guess you would call it as a stand alone item, in the side of a pistol rug and a rifle round model to hang on the wall. Remembering one of the videos they had one of their rugs...

    Cabela's Blackpowder Revolvers

    Cabela's has a variety of blackpowder revolvers, some are uberti but for many there is no brand listed. Does anyone happen to know who makes the majority of the models they carry? Anyone have experience with any of these? I don't think I'd be shooting one much, but I've always wanted one...

    Primers

    Whats been everyone's experience on turn around time from the online vendors that are accepting backorders on primers? Just browsing around I noticed Cabela's was accepting backorders with expected 3-4 weeks. How about other sites you visit? And are they back to getting semi regular...

    Interesting thing with MidwayUSA today

    So I've had quite a few items on my backorder list on Midway. Most had been there for at least 3 months if not more (mostly ammo). Some I've gotten or substitued from other places and not wanting the off chance a huge order to come through all at once I decided to cancel all of the line items...

    EMF Company Dealers around DFW

    I'm looking for a shop that carries EMF company guns around the DFW. I'm sure I could look up their dealers, but I was wondering if anyone knows of a shope that keeps a few on hand. A lot of places are "dealers" for a lot of manufacturers, but a lot of time that just means they ordered from...

    Just noticed something about Blazer casings

    was just twiddling with an aluminum blazer 9mm casing on my desk and noticed something.. There are 2 charging holes inside with a little strip of metal running over the center where one hole would normally be. I guess this gives a better burn? and since they aren't meant to be reloaded it...

    Anyone know the make of this 16ga?

    16 gauge. It is old with a short chamber(2.5"'s fit nicely). The only markings I can see without disassembly are those shown with the breech open.

    Regarding double rifles

    I often have dreams of owning a roomful of H&H's then I wake up and wonder why no one this day in age hasn't brought a "low end" double rifle to market. I realize there probably isn't much demand for such a setup, but that isn't the reason I keep stumbling across that people claim to be the...

    shooting glasses - Revision Hellfly

    I was curious if anyone out there has a pair of the "Hellfly" glasses by Revision and how you like them for shooting? Also does anyone happen to have the Photochromatic lenses that darken in sunlight? If you do do these darken by visible light or UV? I'm curious because I'd like a good pair...

    concealed carry to and from car storage

    So I'm finally doing my CHL class in a couple of weeks so I've been thinking a lot on the subject. With some of the legislation coming up in Texas I was thinking how great it will be if it passes so that employers can't keep you from having a handgun in your car on their property. So on to...

    Caspian kit?

    I've ran across several sites mentioning Caspian Race Ready kits for building 1911's. I've got it in my mind to eventually build one. Caspian doesn't seem to mention any kits on their site (or if so i missed it lol). Does anyone know about these? had any experience etc.

    .22 suggestions

    A friend of mine who shoots rifles primarily mentioned the other day that he was interested in getting a .22 semi auto pistol and was asking me for suggestions. I recommended a ruger Mark II or III but he said he was more interested in one that looked more like a 'real gun' lol. So I interpret...
