Merry Christmas! Does any own a Ruger Mini 30, especially a newer model? I'd really like to have one gun for white tail deer hunting in Maine and any SHTF situation that may arise. It seems like the 7.62x39 is the best round to accommodate this goal. AKs and their variants seem a little on...

Hello all. Finally fired my Rossi M92 today that I bought back in January or so. I got a 16" Carbine in .38/.357. It's a handy little gun and shot quite well. The rifle was a good "pointer." I bought this gun in the hopes that it would be "ban proof," and not a target of any misguided...

Hi everyone, I guess the title kinda sums it up. I am looking for a gun for my wife. I like to leave the gun unchambered. I'm looking for a full size-ish 45 where she can easily rack the slide. Light on the wallet is good too. It's probably all in the recoil spring, isn't it?

Hello, I've fully disassembled and reassembled my Sig P238, and I just want to make sure I've done it correct. I don't remember how this worked before. The quarter-cock is UNAFFECTED by the SAFETY, correct? Even with the safety engaged, the gun can be quarter-cocked and subsequently "fired"...

Alright, so I got sand in our P238 so I wanted to completely take it down. Got down to the trigger. Wanted to remove the trigger. Was messing around and pulled back on the trigger until it clicked. Trigger is now stuck in backwards position, trigger bar is "loose" but trigger pin is not budging...

I'm not looking for anything fancy, mainly enough to keep the toddler out and have quick access JIC. Anyone own this stack-on safe? Stack-On Mini-Storage Vault

Hello, I just purchased a Colt Govt .380. I performed the safety check of bringing the slide back, holding down the trigger, and letting the slide go. I did this about 20 times. Twice, the trigger followed the slide to the quarter-cock notch. I may be asking an obvious question, but is this...

For those who pocket carry, do you feel a little weird if you're sitting in church, or a restaurant, etc., knowing that your pocket gun is pointing at the person sitting across from you?

Hi everyone, we're in the process of wringing out my wife's new p238. We have about 80 rounds through it so far. Twice what has happened is after the last round in the magazine, the slide lock will engage, but doesn't appear to be fully engaged (the lock does not move up into the niche), and...

Wife and I went shooting together for the first time in over a year. She stopped shooting once she found out she was pregnant and needed to get some range time. Turns out she was having a hard time with her double actions... she has a KelTec P32, a new-to-her Ruger LCP and a Taurus Slim in 9mm...

I found a Colt Mustang that will end up costing me $545 in the end. Please give me very good reasons not to buy it.

Do you guys usually trade straight up, or do you sell then buy a different gun? If so, do you often take a loss? Am I the only one whose wife rolls her eyes when she finds out I sold another gun for a small loss to fund a new one??

Hi, please forgive the silly newbie questions. It looks like the best SD ammo for .223 is probably the Hornady TAP. Is there going to be much, if any, difference between the 55gr and the 75gr at SD distances? Let's say 50 yards max. So I'm thinking of buying a few boxes of TAP and having...

Hi, I'm looking at getting a Colt 6520, it's an A2 frame with a non-detachable carry handle. If, in the future, I'd like to mount an optic on a flat top, could something like this be easily swapped on...

Just wondering how much weight would a bobtail remove from an all-steel frame? Thinking of getting a Colt Combat Commander bobtailed. Thanks!

I'm using my XL7 in 270 to shoot Whitetail in the Maine woods. Most shots would be about 25-100 yards. I've read in some places that the 130 gr has too much velocity for shorter range shots, that there is too much meat damage when it smacks the deer. Would you recommend 150 gr in my case? (Note...

Anyone have any experience with the new Redfield binoculars, particularly the compact Rebel line? http://redfield.com/binoculars/ I'm happy with their scope, just wanted some info before I dropped $150 on the 10x42 compact.

Well, I didn't have a bolt action rifle, and I wanted one. One of the best things about it was its price tag at Dick's: $280. So I got one in .270. Then I read about the new Redfields. Picked up a 2-7x33 on gunbroker for $121. Made by Leupold, made in America, lifetime warranty, how can you...

I got a Leupold Rifleman scope mounting system... now I'm no genius when it comes to mounting scopes. One of the scope bases is thicker than the other, which you can see here (front piece noticeably thicker): This causes the scope to angle, obviously. Is this normal? It came with 2...

I figure, if they make cat lasers so cheaply, why can't they make bore sighters cheaply (or, inexpensively) as well? I'm just using it to get on paper. Any recommendations for a cheap bore sight? Thanks.
