    Handling of Colt and Schofield replicas...

    I have shot a rented Beretta Stampede (Uberti) one-handed and I like the way it pointed. At 7 yards, I was pretty decent with it. The silhouette target had some definite "Owies!" in or near the center. Do Schofield replicas point as well? I have never held one--just drooled on a case at a...

    Wandering through gun shops....

    My Lovely Bride and I went to three gun shops today. At the first one, where she was dropping off a gun for repair, I wandered back among the lever action rifles and saw a Henry Big Boy in .45 Colt. It was hefty, but pointed very well. The action seemed quite smooth. I liked it. A lot. We...

    Cimarron Arms Colt SAA replica opinions...

    Bushmaster Carbon 15--why or why not?

    Is there a compelling reason to get a Carbon 15 when the price is about the same as a similar AR15 from Bushmaster?

    .22 madness!

    I own 3 Glocks--two 9mm and one .45acp. I am thinking of getting a .22 both for cheap shooting and to ease my wife into handgun shooting. The only .22's I have fired were a Ruger semi-auto at a basic handgun class (where my wife and I shot similar groupings) and a friend's Neos last...
