    Need advice on Dan Wesson

    I recently found a NIB DW Model 14 .357 mag 4". Beautiful gun, and I got all the original paperwork, tools, in the original box. The Model 14 has fixed sights.

    Marlin 336 in .30-30 or Mossberg 100 ATR in .308?

    I have several friends in Canada that hunt moose with a 30-30. Although others up there use more powerful cartridges and have success as well, these guys always seem to have a freezer full. I outfitted my 336 with a Williams FP sight. Replacing the stock irons and reducing the trigger pull...

    Senator Durbin's response to my email

    On a positive note, Pat Perez (sheriff, Kane County, IL) was recently on WIND, a notably conservative radio station in the Chicago area. He stated to the interviewers that he has unanimous support from every sheriff in the state of Illinois and the majority of LEO's in Cook County, plus the...

    The gun you most regret selling

    My 9422M. It was sold at the same time as my BL-22 and Marlin 783 over 30 years ago so I could have funds to head off to college. The 1969 GTO Judge was sold at the same time. I'm still wondering if someone had accomplished a lobotomy on me prior to those sales without me knowing...

    Shot Benelli Nova with 3 1/2 magnums for the first time.

    Not really. If you know your gun, have taken the time to pattern it with different loads at different distances to find out works best at POA, and are patient in the hunt, they go down pretty easily. I haven't jumped on the commercial bandwagon of huge loads, camo weapons with special sights...

    Is there such a thing as too much rifle?

    Marlin 336 in 30-30 works for me. I've never had the need to scope it (has Williams FP), and none of the deer I've taken were outside 100 yards. I've practiced quite a bit with the LeverE ammo, and feel comfortable I could go well outside that distance. The need has never arisen. I guess...

    New to reloading

    Excuse me for asking, but why just a Lee loader? I have extra safety glasses handy for anyone coming close to the bench. I don't think it has anything to do with the equipment; more to do with the nature of the materials in use. In my line of work, that would be similar to saying "when working...

    Shotgun Recomendation

    Moss500 Persuader is an excellent shotgun with a lot of different barrels available. One gun can do HD, trap, bird hunting, or rifled barrel for deer. For the money, a good reliable gun. There are a lot of aftermarket accessories available for those that are interested in that type of stuff.

    Walkaround Rifle for $1000 or less

    I wouldn't forget the Marlin XL7. Around $300, and a great trigger. Very accurate rifle right out of the box. Gives you a lot of room money-wise for great optics and lots of ammo.

    Gun Store Crowds

    Two local gunshops I frequent aren't even worth going to on the weekends anymore. They are small shops, and you can't even turn around in there. I go during the week. Both owners have told me they've never seen anything like it. Almost all are new buyers, and almost all want AR-styled rifles and...

    What Three Guns for a Low Budget

    New member here- great forum and interesting topic! I've been asked this question recently from an acquaintance that had little experience with firearms, and the best I could tell him was to keep it simple, reliable, and a weapon list that could be fed easily from just about any store...
