Spring designations for the 1911 are not the same as those of mechanical engineers. The poundage is the force it takes to compress the recoil spring to the length of full compression in the 1911. That dimension,iirc, is 1 5/8" or thereabouts. The design does not allow the coils to fully collapse...

99per cent of the bullseye people will use the 1911 platform. Many claim that the SA Range Officer is adequate to get you to Expert or maybe master. Other options are a used Bullseye pistol or one of the high end custom pistols. The other option and probably the most common is to buy a low end...

Are you shooting right or left handed? Your vision (with which eye you are using)will need to be corrected so that the front sight is clear and in focus. ( both astigmatism and refraction) If you are shooting right handed with right dominate eye you should have no problem with both eyes open. If...

The rifle is a poor mans 40-X. It is built on a 700 action and IIRC has the solid receiver. There is nothing wrong with that. I think $990 is well over the new price when they were introduced. I am thinking I looked at a .308 and it was like $750 at the time.( 7-8 years ago) The .308 was never...

To add another note, The taggants can be recovered after an explosion. With the taggants the powder can be traced to the supplier and on to the buyer. Taggants in gun powder was proved to be undoable by the manufacturers in smokeless powders back in the 1990's.. Since the taggants are of a...

The sights were changed and of course the grips. I would not go as high as 900.00. I would think 7-800.00.

I have never seen a contract slide marked by Colt on the right side. I thought they simply had the part number.The frame is aftermarket or foreign. It is a pistol made from parts and may be a good shooter but would have no collector value and a value much less than an original firearm.

The very early 99"s "bolt" was square on the rear. Later it was changed to a round bolt/lockup. The stock can split where the tang from the action fits back in it. The rifle was discontinued because of high manufacturing costs. That refers to high machining and assembly costs. Think old school...

I suppose you know that 14.5" barrel requires a BATFE permit for a short barreled rifle (SBR). That costs $200.00 and a waiting period of who knows how long and getting worse. The 14.5" is functional but there is more muzzle flash.

If it is a private range you really do not have to worry about anything but stopping the bullet in the intended berm. The old rule of thumb to stop a 30-06 you need three feet of dirt. I would built multiple berms at whatever distance that most of your shooting will take place. Like a berm at...

All civilian and military corrosive ammo in the United States was produced before 1955. If the Colt ammo was produced after that it was not corrosive. I doubt that the Tula was corrosive either, I know that their primers are not corrosive but I can not say about the ammo.

As noted there are no court cases where a handloaded SD round made a difference in a criminal case. Mostly BS There have been a couple of cases where the prosecutor swayed a jury that the defendant used hollow point ammo and "hollow points" were mean evil rounds meant only to kill. The people...

AO has been bought out by Kahr (IIRC). Quality might be better on those pistol than before but the old AO were very close to junk. Every problem imaginable. I would buy the Remington hands down over an old AO. I can not make that statement about the later AO because I have no direct experience.

Winchester 320 I know of no one that makes a replacement trigger for the 320. They are rare.

It may be that the BATFE determined that he was "engaged in the Business". The article says he has a C&R license. With that license you can not "engage in the business". It is for you to collect relics. If he had a high volume of sales and it can be determined that he made profit he is probably...

Obama does not compromise on the Debt Ceiling or Spending. Neither can you find the truth out about his birth certificate, His youth or his college education or Benghazi or Fast and Furious or........

I reckon I may have myself into trouble. When they asked if it was full auto or semi-auto I would have said "Let's go out to the range and see if it goes full auto"

Yes, His math is correct in all of Obama's 54 states.

We could all just show up to go to the Smithsonian on the same day. Walk around Washington to sight see. Of course the White House and the Capital are must sees. Like 2-3 million. We could all eat at Chick-Filet. We could all wear NRA gear but no central organization.

Marlin 1894 is not a pump it is a lever. It all depends on age and caliber. Reblue may actually take away from it's value. Most any 1894 would go for 300 to 350. It may be worth $1000.00 1897 Winchester should be able to get 250 to 400. Ruger Bearcat- $400.00 might be a little high but 350.00...
