Hello again, I have an old (1930s, based on serial number) 12ga western arms (ithaca) "long range" single-trigger side-by-side shotgun that has a funny habit of not discharging the second shot consistently. The first shot always goes off, but about half the time, the second trigger pull is a...

Hello everyone, I have recently been having an issue with my JC Higgins Model 20. The slide racks front and back just fine without a shell in the chamber. It also racks and ejects without any issues if I load shells and don't discharge the gun. However, if I DO fire a round, the slide is...

I'm planning on filing down the front sight on my RIA tactical, which is shooting low even with a center-of-mass sight picture (let alone a 6-o'clock sight picture). As I venture forth, should I be sighting with center-of-mass or with the 6-o'clock hold? I have read several articles and threads...

I'm a newbie to reloading, and I'm getting ready to reload .45 ACP for my RIA tactical. My question is the following: generally, around what OALs allow JHP to feed reliably in a RIA tactical? There's very little information online about others' experiences specifically with the tactical. I have...

i keep on looking for C&R shotguns so that I can put my class 3 ffl to good use, but i seldom see any listed anywhere...any suggestions? also, why is this? shotguns have been around for well over fifty years.

Posted this in another gun forum, but didn't get any replies. Some mention how the RIA tactical has a differently-shaped full-length guide rod that makes field stripping different than for other 1911s with full-length guide rods (for one, see http://www.m1911.org/ezine/RIATactical.htm). For a...
