    Can someone educate me on the AR-10?

    As I understand it, "AR-10s" are made by Armalite, DPMS and Rock River Arms. Any other manufacturers? But, the mags and parts are not interchangable between them. For Armalite, do you have to use Armalite mags only, are there no other manufacturers. What about the .308 Pmags? On the Magpul...

    I bought a NIB Model 70 in 6.5x55. Should I...

    ... shoot it or keep it NIB? Its a Model 70 Classic Featherweight in 6.5x55. What is the collector potential here, if any? What would you do? I suppose I could save my pennies and try to find another one, probably used, and shoot that one. That might take awhile though.

    Gun Safe Dimensions/Weight For Basement Accessible by Stairs Only

    I'm looking at a house where I believe the best place for a gun safe is the basement on the cement floor. Thought maybe I'd build a "gun room" with reloading equipment and cleaning/maintenance equipment, etc. Anyway, this basement is accessible by a standard door and strait wooden staircase...
