Hi guys. I'm building my first AR and got an assembled upper (DPMS Sportical) with a gas block with a picatinny rail. I like the MBUS's, but they don't offer them for this application. What do you guys recommend without breaking the bank? Thanks Sean

Hi guys, a friend recently sold me a AR upper for dirt cheap but the barrel isn't legal in ct off of a preban rifle. I'm looking at new barrels and getting some advise from my army friends, but they seem to not believe in budgets. Can anyone recommend a decent barrel that would be under...

Hey guys. I bought my first upper from a friend last week. He wanted barely any money for it as he jut got back from Iraq with money to spend and wants to build a SBR. The upper he sold me is off a preban rifle and has a shorter than 16" barrel with an extended flash suppressor to make it...

Hey guys. I'm having an issue with the magazine extension on my 870. When I load more than 2 or 3 rounds in the tube the spring gets bound up and won't press the rounds into the receiver. I feel like the spring is far too long and getting bound up. The spring is literally twice the length of the...

Hi guys, I'm pretty new to the world of shotguns and only got into it via an old, free 870 wingmaster a buddy game me. My question is ... which determines what size shell I can use; the receiver or the barrel? I ask because the gun came with a long 26 or 28" ribbed barrel with 2-3/4" only...

Hi guys, today I went to a local shop with a buddy to look at rifles and shotguns and something caught my attention. They had two 590A1 tactical models. They were both 9rd, regular stock, and ghost sights. Only difference between the two was one of them had 590A1 stamped on it, other had...

Hi all, I would like to get a good little target gun and dont want to spend a whole lot of money. Id love an AR or such, but Im saving up for a house down payment. I just want something to have fun with in the mean time, and take care of some pests. Would you guys recommend a .17HMR or a...

This weekend I went shooting and had a first time experience I wanted to share. I went to Hoffman's gun shop with a buddy to put some rounds down range with my Springer 1911. After a few rounds the gun started to not extract the spent brass. It happened about 5 or 6 times within 5 magazines...

Hi guys, I have been thinking lately of picking up a shotgun for home defense and maybe some hunting/skeet, and this coming weekend is a local gunshow. I have never owned or shot a shotgun before so I would be a first time shotgun buyer (only own pistols right now), so what kinds of things...

Hi all, I am looking to buy my first rifle in the near future and I am kind of confused about the legislature. I am leaning towards an AR or some sort, but after reading Sec. 53-202a it looks like theyre illegal, yet they sell them and I know plenty of people who own them...

Hey all, I was wondering what kinds of things i could do to my older Springer 1911 Standard (comparable to the GI or mil-spec) that doesnt require any gunsmithing? I have knowledge in metal working, but id rather not mess with the gun if i dont have to. Examples of things i would want to...

Hi all, Im currently in the market for a new carry gun. Currently I have a 1911 that i bought a couple holsters to carry it, but its too big for me and digs into my flesh when concealed. I have run across 3 choices, the Ruger LCP, Springfield XD9sc, and CZ P-01. Why these: LCP: price, pocket...

Hi all, a buddy of mine is looking to get his CCW permit. He lives in Providence, RI, but his permanent address is in CT. He would more than likely do most of his shooting at CT ranges. Question is, would he be able to transport the gun into RI if he had a CT permit? I read that RI has the...

My 1911 has white sights and i find them hard to acquire in any light situation. Its an older model with staked on sites and i dont want to pay someone to put on tritiums or anything, I just want something to help me out a little bit. I am looking for opinions on which color to paint them. Whats...

Hi all, I was just browsing the STI site and came across the Recoilmaster kit. http://www.stiguns.com/ Follow menu to Products > Recoil Master and parts. Does anyone have this in the 1911? Im curious to know if this makes a significant improvement and worth the $85. I have an older SA...

Was looking through our barn today for our dent puller and came across the rifle my father has been looking for for years. Its an old J Steven Arms Company Crackshot 26 1/2, 32 shot. Does anyone know anything about these guns? Any good links? The barrel is a bit rusty, but otherwise its in...

Hi all, Im looking for an optic to put on my Beretta Neos and I was looking at these TruGlo red dots. What do you guys think of the brand? reliable? durable? I dont want to spend over $100 so obviously Im not looking for the best of the best, just something i can depend on to work whenever...

Hi all, I just picked up a beretta neos to be my target pistol. I had tested on out a while back and loved it, so i finally found a place that had one in stock. Anyway, I was thinking of puting on some kind of optic, but cant decide between a scope or a red dot. Ive never bought either so im...

Sorry, double posting

Hey all, Im looking at .22LR plinkers and after firing the Beretta U22 Neos I am very interested in buying it. My only real question/concern is if its reliable. TIA
