    talk me outa the trojan 5.0

    right now im talking to dawson about getting a lawman with nightsights. ive got to see what they price it at, but its still within my price range, the upper part of it though. so far all ive heard is good things about STI so thats making my purchuse much easier.

    talk me outa the trojan 5.0

    thank you xr1200. i was looking at the lawman as well they trojan list for 999 and i was planing on getting different sights for it so it would have been up around 1100 anyway so the lawman at 1200 with the same style of sights that i want would be swingable. i understand the cast vs...

    talk me outa the trojan 5.0

    well i traded my last 1911 (springfield gi) off, so now i need a new one. i got into shooting uspsa and the gi's sights were killing me. so i thought the new range officer would fit the bill but now that im looking at the STI it seems that i may get a little more gun (for a little more $). my...

    Combat Zone Firearms Policy - Its time for a change

    MLJ i understand that those are safe "handling" rules, but sit down to eat lunch and look up to see a muzzle pointed at your face then tell me about it. also the shoulder holsters are all cross draw so you do flag 180 degrees when you draw.

    Combat Zone Firearms Policy - Its time for a change

    im in afghanistan right now, so here is my take- 1) shoulder holster where ISSUED by units. now everytime i stand in a line or walk down the road i have a barrel pointed at me. heaven forbid some pfc or lcpl "flag" someone while eating chow with a 20" ar but its ok for half the base to have a...

    Well I thought I knew about "dirty powder"

    No the dime wasn't in there it was just a size reference. Haha I will call them tomorrow. I ended up using about all the powder but I just charged my pan, picked out the junk and wieghed it. It was deffenetly the longest I've spent loading 100 rounds. And to top off my bad day my box of...

    Well I thought I knew about "dirty powder"

    The story goes like this, I wanted to load some 30-06 so I went to my local store where I've been buying powder for the last 6 months without a problem. They have great prices and since it's on base it's tax free. So I picked up a pound of IMR 4895 (i watched the employee open and remove it...

    Today I was in a pawn shop and happened to do some trading. There were two henry's on the wall one full size 22 and one youth. The full sized was rode hard and put up wet, so I decied to pick up the youth. My wife doesn't understand why I brought home my 6 day old daughter a rifle. Lol.

    16 y/o with an AR15?

    Most will agree that spikes is a great company with top rate service. So here is my suggestion you can take it for what it's worth. Spikes m4-$800 And .22 conversion-$170 That's $970 plus 30ish for the ffl leaves you a little to pick up some extras. Tell you what I owe a pay it...

    A while ago I read a short story that I'm pretty sure was posted on here (maybe linked). It was about a dad who saw that s was about htf on a forum so he tried to bug out but all of his preparations were strung all over so he sent his wife and kid to Wally world, by the time they got out the...
