My son was asking if there is a significant difference in accuracy out of an AR-15 with a 20" barrel vs. a 16" barrel. I told him that I thought the 5.56 round was originally intended for the 20" barrel, but other than that I don't know what the difference might be or if that matters. Anyone...

this is a long story, that is mostly me bragging on my boy. Thought I would share cause i am so proud of his decision making and his shooting... read on if interested, but be warned it is long and probably most interesting... to me;) I posted a few weeks back about my son's search for a 223...

Can some one clear up the question of whether dry firing is harmful to a rifle? In particular my son has a "new to him" Marlin 925M 22 Magnum bolt action. We got it zeroed the other day and it is quite a shooter.. He dry fires a lot and I have read so many conflicting reports, I cannot...

Anyone have suggestions for a small 9mm that I can carry easily in a pocket, with a pocket clip or with a pocket holster? Looking for a companion to my Glock 17 and a substitute for my sp101 carry gun. Wary of the Glock 26 because it does not seem small enough to carry easily. If you carry...

My 14 year old son has been looking at different rifles for about 4 months. He has been on a wwII kick and was considering a M1 carbine, Springfield 1903, etc. All a real stretch for his wallet, but I was willing to let him decide how to spend his own money. He alread has a single shot rossi...

I have a chance to buy a used stock and it is missing the pistol grip. I am assuming I could replace it with any aftermarket ar15 grip? Any experience here? Your help would be greatly appreciated. John

My 14 year old has been shooting since he was 8. He has fired several of different rifles, including .22 singleshots, bolt actions and lever actions, .357 lever actions, mini 14, m1a scout. He has recently gained an interest in WWII history and weapons. He has a fair amount of $ saved in...

Recently inherited one of these. It was in horrible condition, rust, gunk , you name it. Got it good an clean and took it out to shoot last weekend. Shoots great, save for a once or twice a magazine load failure to feed. Basically the nose of the round sits up too high and as the bolt is...

I recently inherited a Remington 521T bolt action, magazine fed, 22 rifle. It was not taken very good care of, but after much cleaning and lubricating I took it to the range today. I like this weapon!... very accurate, easy to shoot. The only issue I had was that the magazine does not feed...

I am the relatively new owner of a M1A Scout. I have put a few hundred founds through it so far. I performs flawlessly, seemingly regardless of ammo selection. I don't mind the weight of the weapon. However, I am having just a little troube gaining a level of comfort with this rifle... it...

I have been invited to a cowboy style shoot. You have to have two single action revolvers, a double barrel shotgun ( or a specific pump that I cannot remember) and an era approriate lever action. I am good to go on the long guns. I need to pick up the single action revolvers... I am usually...

Handled this weapon for the first time in the local gun shop yesterday. I was impressed and am considering a purchase. The fit and finish was better than expected, the sights were better than expected, uses ar 15 mags folds for storage small enough to fit in my "get home bag". Wondering if...
